Democratic party, but 1t is not for
the Democratic party no matter how

THE sentiment abroad in the

real, and not the false, democratic
principles. In order to profit by
that sentiment the Democratic party
must, by platform aud by candidate.

Aldrich from the Senate, Mr.. Folk
said: 1.-THE fight is not against Al /
