 The Democratic party expresses it's approval If the wise and patriotic course of the farmers and fruit grow CTS in this state, in their effort to Sc. cure sta b.e ard remunerative prices for theIr products, and pledges it's sympathy and support to them in the accomplishment of result su plainly demanded ny right and justice.
 The Democracy of the state refers with just price to it's splendid elee- mosynary institutions, and declares i its purpose 70 support and maintain them withliberality and increase their capacity as necessity may frJm time to time demand. Ana We commend tn the legislature the wisdom and justice If making ample provisions for paying the full amount Of the pen sians allowed the worthy Confederate soldiers and the widows of such sol dIers.
 We view with intolerance and alarm the growth ef graft and corruption throughout the country. ThIS subtle yet far.redching force. today threatens the overthrow ot official purity, and, ultimately, of popular government, and believing that the essential secur- fty of the people is dependent upon tue honesty and hdelity of their pub- lie servants. Se unqualitiediy demand the prompt. faithful and fearless en- fofeement If the laws against official corruption and urge that existing laws be strengthened ny such additional leg sia1on as vii make their eXecu- ton certain and effective against both the brIBe.giVer and bribe-taker
