Democratic Sentinel, Volume 16, Number 41, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 28 October 1892 — CAMPAIGN SONG. [ARTICLE]

CAMPAIGN SONG.

One of the Best K Hurts in the New York World’s Prize Contest. The hosts of the Democracy are marshaled for the fray; With Cleveland now to lead them on they’re sure to win the day; Their principles are borne aloft upon their banner true, And they are the men true blue. CHORUS. Shout glory, glory, halleluiah! Ehout glory, glory, halleluiah! hout glory, glory, halleluiah! And they are the men true blue. Fidelity to truth and trust, fidelity to right. Inspire them with burning zeal to meet opposing might; And, fighting for the principles bequeathed to them of yore, They’ll sweep from shore to shore. No centralized plutocracy; no catering to class; ‘ No lifting high in privilege above the common mass; No legislation to annul the right of equal share, When Cleveland and his men get there. The toiling millions in the field, the millions in the shop, The yeomanry of Lrain and brawn, the country’s pride and prop, Shall find no high protective tax their industry o’erwhelm When Cleveland holds the helm. 'Tis blazoned on the banner that the Democrat unrolls, “No force bill shall obtrude its baneful shadow on the polls;” His dear bought, sacred interests shall not be wrest away In the Democratic day. The doctrines of the fathers, they who made the nation free, Shall be the cry and watchword of the new Democracy; Those grand, eternal principles upheld by noble sires Shall burn as altar Area Hurrah! then, men, for Cleveland and for Stevenson, hurrah! They represent the principles to crystallize in law; They stand for righteous government, and they will win the fight, Because they stand for right. With Cleveland and with Stevenson the hosts' will march along, To swell at last the chorus of triumphant battle song, When shouts of glad hozannas will be beard on every haod, Through all this glorious land.
