The present exhibition which is being

the party for the sake or the principles
which it represented, to have any idea
at all as to what Democrat IL. The
party as now represented at Washington
might as well pass out OF existence, for
IL has survived It's usefulness and only
serves now to make a humliating specta

heads in shame. ] believe that men who
think like we DO would rather zee the
