DEMOCRATS To LEAD
National Committee Decides to NHtnc
,ricIset nniI Announce rintfOrn, .IFirst.


Ticket niid Announce Platform, First.
II has now leaked out what Thomas
Taggert's real reason was sfor calling
the national committee together at
French Lick. and why one of the
at the Lick was strictly
secret and held behind barred Doors
The information comes from IL mem.
Der OF the national committee. and Is
reliable. He says: 1T is' vital
to the Democratic party whether we
lead or follow In the next campaign.
For years and years II has been Gus.
tomary for us to wait until the Itepub.
Leans have named their ticket, and
then for us to follow and name ours
The same was true of our platforms.
The result was that. we have suffered
by being put on the defensive, with
the voters OF the country put in the
attitude of being afraid to ac. until
our opponents had acted.
THE question of breaking that pre-.
ccdent has been agitatfng the national
committee for a long time. The drift
OF public sentiment is our way now,
and is getting stronger all the time,
We reasoned that now or never is our
great opportunity. We must take the
Initiative and drive the Republicans
instead OF trying. as In past years to
keep the Republicans from driving us
SO we came to French Lick by invita-.
ton to talk II over.
I'VE knew that the Republican M
.tional Committee would meet in Wash
,fngton on December 9Th and Ttll, and
at that time would set the time and
place for holding the next Republican
National Convention. So. In order that
they couldn't set their convention
earlier than ours, we decided % meet
there on December 12th, after they
had acted. That is the reason for our
meeting on tho 18th, instead OF the
list or 3D.
