work of the democratic resolutions , committee The democrats ’of this state hare s loiug standing habit of being hoe eat with the people in their platforms Regardless of the character of the issues democratic convections hare spokes acxoed'.ag to their convictions. They bare practiced no deception and they bare sacrificed no party principle As is now more clearly understood that at any time in a half century. the democratic party exists because it stands for certain ideas that are essential to a continuance of popular government. Unlike the republican party, the democratic party is not and never was a party of expediency. It has stood by its principles and trusted the people. At times It has bees misunderstood i and has suffered defeat in consequence At other times it has been defeated by fraud and unspeakable rascality. But it has toed the scratch 'at every succeeding battle with its banners unsullied.

And now, the people thoroughly’ aroused, are looking to the demoerwie party to give them good govern meat—to restore solfgoveenmea’-to wipe out the wrong and injustice and evils that the republican periy has brought upon this country.
