It is an inspiring thing to know that by virtue of our purty membership we are associated with lhot-e who resist the attempt of arrogant political power to interfere with tho independence and integrity of popular suffrage, who are determined to rel'eve our countrymen from unjust and unnecessary burdens, who arc iutcnt upon checking extravagance in public expenditures, aud who tebt party purposes by their usefulness in promoting the interests and welfare of all tho people of the laud. "lu tho light of our last victory no man who desires democratic success will deny the supreme importance of a most thorough and systematic presentation to our fellow citizens of the reasons which support the avowed and accepted purposes of our party.

Those who now sneer at efforts in that direction are our enemies—whether they confront us us confessed opponents or whethor they are traitors akulktng within our cainp. We cannot accomplish what we promise to the people if we allow ourselves to be diverted from the perils which are still in our way. Wo shall court dtsa£ter if we relax In commending to the intelligence of our countrymen the creed which we profess. aud we tempt humiliating failure and disgrace when we encourage or tolerate those who, claiming friendship with us. needlessly and often from the worst of motivos seek to stir up strife and sow discord In the counsels of our party."
