in with the majority. or, as they say
in this state. who desire to sustain
those who are in power, ARE III q
quandary as to what direction the pos
Elitical cat Is about to leap" They
stumble like one filed with new wine.
EARLY in the campaign they felt sure of
the reelection Of the Republican can
didate and they came out into the
open and propnesied loudly that such
would be the result, but laterly they
see as through a glass darkly, and give
manifest evidence that they know not
where they are at.
TRIBUTE TO CACHE.

helped TO keep the Democratic lamp
trimmed and burning through the
years of defeat with which our party
has been scourged. He is able to see
With cleraness the coming of certain
triumph and the dawning of long
Democratic day. And he is here today |
as a delegate to this convention I'M
terrified and undismayed. He is here in
this beautiful county and he feels that |
he is in the home of his friends. This
Is q great county Great in its ma
terial wealth. Great in the character |
OF its people and great in Its education-
al advantages for the youth of the

these educational advantages may
never grow less, butsthat they may be
increased from year to year And I
while am speaking of the greatness
