persons for which Democracy stands."
Senator Smith said that his schooling
in Democratic principles commenced at
an early age, since when, he said, he
had consistently followed the party
ideals and had never since he cast his
first ballot erased the name of a Demo-
crat from the ticket.
Il believe that the success of this Or

not stand for the political advancement
of men, but for the furtherance Of the
doctrines which have made the names OF
Jefferson and Jackson immortal"

aspirants former United States Senator
James Smith, jr, caused a humorous up
roar when he said, I'VE have a gentleman
In this State who is so devoted to the

leave them even to occupy the Presi-
Dental chair.
Judge Charles F. Herr, candidate for
oOANBott W Xix odlliiilOIt

candidate for unpledged delegate, said
that he had been %hypnotized by the high
flow methods of the progressionists
some time back but that he had com

I go to Baltimore, If / do, | want to
vote for a man who doesn't believe In
Chinese labor-who does not believe that
the Chinese are more desirable than the
coarse laborers from Southern Europe
which flood our shores every year"
Mayor Jacob Haussling referred briefly
to the work Of the Joel Parker Associa-
ton in forwarding the principles of Demo

citation was doing would result in the
election of a Democrat next November.
Edward f. Rice, Of Harrison, candi-
date for unpledged delegate. expressed
a preference for Champ Clark and said

support of the candidates in the coming
primaries so that a Democrat will fill
the Presidential chair next March.

party loyalty of former United States
Senator James Smith. jr, and condemned
those who found faul with him because
he was a true Democrat. Mr.. O'Brien
expressed the hope that Senator Smith
would again become a national figure and
lend his aid as he had always done to his
country's good.
