I) es h-' not kno'- that the great est annexation of territory by the United Slate atone time occurred nnder democratic party rule and nt the instance of ibat greatest demo crat of all. Thomas Jefferson in IstW, wbeu be purchased fiom Napoleon the territory of Louisiana, a tract of land extending Louisiana on the Atlantic Cjast und including Ore gon on the 1'acitic coast, and what today composo.s 15 of the grandest at ites in this mighty republic, nud what Napoleon Bonaparte ileclaied, wbeu he signed the treaty ceiling this territory, that he had signed away an empiref And don't he know also that what constitutes u'l of this great and glor ious republic of today has every foot of it been acquired by cession from foreign countries either by conquest or purchase, including the 13 colon ies? Can it be ray democratic broth er is judging mo by himself when he asks me if I am not lonely because I am not buck in tho old party? Inti mating that I have taken this oppor tunity to get hack to my first politi cal love. To pet the uiind of iuy democratic brother at rest, I have this to say: No enemy of mine, either political or otherwise, has ever yet accused me or lacking tho cour age of my convictions. Should tho timo como when I shall determine to aguiu joiu the ranks or tho republi can party, I shall return through tho same door I came out, that is the front door iu plain view of all iu n.
