the street, and that the contractors be COM

Il have always been a Democrat. l am
still a Democrat and l expect to remain a
Democrat. However, l do not believe that
the Buffalo convention acted for the best
i~ntercsts Of the Democratic party or the

absolutely destitute Of Democratic prin-
cipIes, a bolter of regular Democratic nomi-
nations, a vilifier of upright and lov'l Demo-
Gratis, the nominee OF a third party and a
deserter OF associates on that party's ticket.
This action was cOmpasSed by desplc-
able methods at primaries and district
conventions, and by the most outrageous
and high handed fraud ever perpetrated
at a State convention, and it can have no
binding force on any Democrat. From the
standpoint Of Democrats the campaign has
developed into a fiasco, in comparison
with which the Greeley campaign was a
diRnined affair. He who votes for Hearst
