most of the principles upon which
they have insisted for the past eight
years they now seem at loss, both
as to what they really believe, and as
to how firmly they shall assert their
belief in anything" He asserts In
his letter that as soon as the demo
cratic party raises one issue they
shrink from it and endeayOr 10 eX-
