nations. Are not the six thousand loyal
Democrats of old Frederick, who have al

asked II, entitled to some recognition after
so long time To many of you am tied
by the ties of relationship, and many of
you | have long personally known My
record for twenty years as Democrat is
open, and upon 1t | am willing to submit
my claims. Help to give me this nomina-
ton, and ! promise you that in November

Huguenot beach Friday night, have
again returned to New York. The
strike took place during the time the
