II am Democrat and know there
IS nothing wrong with Democratic
principles" said Governor Johnson In
his address. ..The Democratic party
is the only party that has any prin-
ciple. because 1t believes in a govern
ment for the people by the people.
Even the newspapers must pay tribute
to a few for their print paper. but they
have become Interested, and have Pc

The man who works finds conditions
growing harder and the man who
works the worker gets IL easier.
"I want to see a Democratic plat
form made at Denver that Will attract
the man who reads and does not climb
aboard because he admires the gilt
on the band wagon. Then if we lose in
the election. we will have the satis-
faction of knowing It was right any
way. Expediency never got any party
