ATTENTION, DEMOCRATS.
Democrat of Linn county should bear
In :riind that next Saturday lb the day for
holding primary meetings, and next Tues
day Is the day fixed for holding the county
convention. Since 1S66, with a few par
tial breaks, the democrats have held the
management of Linn county in their
hands. They have been faithful to their
trust and hence they have been retained
In power. Of course a few mistakes have
been made, but these ate al'i-.ost unavoid
able. Next Tuesday they have an Import
ant duty to perforin. Upon the work of
that day depends the success of the patty
In June. There must be an open, fair,
honest convention and capable, hoiu'st
men must be selected as candidates. This
course followed and the democratic party
of the county will march on to victory in
June. The democratic party is the party
of the people, but this must be shown in
works as well as In profession. Hence can
didates in whom the masses have coofi
dence must be selected. The Democrat
has no candidates to urge upon the con
vention. It seeks to urge the convention
to make no mistake but to keep faith with
the masses in the nomination of a good
ticket. We have no fears that the con
vention will make a mistake on this point,
but the duty devolved upon the Demo
. CRAT afi a democratic paper, constrains us
to warn democrats of the importance of
doing their work well. There is much
confusion in local politics, and democrats
should purrtie such a course as will show
it to be the true, steadfast friends of the
people and thus entitled to their support.
A DEMOCRATIC KEKOUM
Senator Palmer representsa reform which
is perhaps ns vital to the future of this
country ns nny other now being imitated in
the political arena. He is the representative
of the democratic party in urging it. it
was that party which, in the Illinois cam
paign of 1890. took the initiative in the
work of breaking away from old traditions
and exemplifying a new method of choosing
United States senators which should come
nearer to the people as the source of all po
litical power.
The colossal fortunes which have succeed
ed the civil war period, and which have de
bauched senatorial elections in many states,
have made such a changea vital necessity.
In control of a senate chosen by caucus the
money power could, by the corruption of
legislators and the skillful manipulation of
votes in a few doubtful districts in doubtful
states, perpetuate its power, no matter how
frequently or emphatically the people in the
election of the president and member of
the house of representatives might express
their condemnation of it and their desire to
overthrow it. An illustration of this may
perhaps be afforded ere long, by the defeat
in the republican senate of all tariif reform
measures originating in the lower house.
Uefonn in the election of senators is n
necessary part of the general plan of reform
indorsed by the democratic party.
A dispatch from Atlanta Ga. says:
The majoitty of t' e Georgia alliance
men will not desert the democratic for the
people's party. This was demonstrated at
an alliance meeting held today. The
speakers were Congressman L Livlt.g
ston, president ofjtlie Georgia alliance, X
A Wilson, vice-president of the alliance,
both of whom have just returned from the
St Louis conference, and ex-S:ate Senator
Z T Zachery. a prominent alliance man.
All the speakers declared it wou'.d he
folly for the farmers, who compose the
majotity of the democratic party, to leave
for the new party, whose main strength
lies with the repnb'icans in the west and
northwest.
Tne campaign committee of fiitcen.head
ed by Senator Colquitt and ex-Senator
Brown, appointed to push the canvass of
Senator Hi.l for the presidency, has issued
an address to the people, setting for.h Mr
Hill's many good qualities, and saying i lui ,
lie has been' recommended to the domoc
racy at large by the Nev York convention
as the man who can most surely earn
New York state. Various towns in
Georgia have already organized Mill clubs,
and the movement for the New York sen
ator wilil is stated, assumegreat strength
A dispatcli from Huntington, W. Va.,
says:
Gov Fleming, Congressman Capehart
and other prominent democrats from all
parts of the state attended a meeting here
today t form a league of clubs for the
Fourth Congressional district. A resolu
tion declai log allegiance to Senator Hill
was almost unanimously defeated, while
Cleveland's name was greeted with rous
ing cheers.
Watcrson of the Louisville Courier
Journal, says:
The way things have been shaped In
New York it would be suicidal for the
democracy to nominate either Cleveland
or Hill for the presidency. Senator Hill
as a presidential candidate will encounter
difficulties which never presented them
selves during his previous candidacies.
Hill cannot carry a single ncthern state,
unless It be New York, at all. Kentucky
will instruct her delegates to vote lor John
G Carlisle. Next to Grover Cleveland he
it the most piomlnent exponent of tariff
reform .
Let every delegate to the county con
vention next week biyir in mind, that no
other thing contributed so much to the
great democratic victcry in this county two
years ago a the vlve voce voting In nom
inating candidates. Let every delega.e
make up Ills mind to support that system
of voting next Tuesday.
Mr McKlnlcy says: "You can't make
wool free on the sheep's back and tax It
on our backs." Then the tariff on cloth
ing Is a tax? Thanks for the admission.
THltEATS, 1SDEKI1.
If the threat is carried out by the friends
of Mr Cleveland of cramming him down the
"throat of his opponent, " there is likely to
be considerable "throat cutting" in Xo
etuber. Portland Visfalrk.
Threats, indeed ! Pray tell us who of
Cleveland's friends ever made a threat to
cram him down the throats of "his oppon
ents." Has Cleveland's friends shown this
"cramming" disposition by seizing upon
party machinery and rushing in in a very
unseemly way into a midwinter convention
to secure delegates ? AVe trust the Di.'fatrli
will be explicit. Tell us who made the
threat to "cram." Tell us when and where
the threat was made. Suppose one of
Cleveland's "opponents" should come up to
the national convention with the 72 dele
gates from New York and a possible 200
besides, and Cleveland should come up with
enough from the other states to secure his
nomination; would that beconsidered cram
ming Cleveland down tho throats of his
"opponents?" No, there has been no threats.
Toes the Disfntck seek to prejudice its
readers against Cleveland by giving pub
licity to such unfounded charges? We
trust not, and yet it looks very much like it-

The democratic party has a majority of
the popular vote in the United States; of
that there is no doubt. It also has a ma.
jontv of the votes in states that cast a
majority of the electoral votes. The onb
thing that can defeat the democratic pa'ty
next fall is a bad blunder or a serious divis-
ion in its own ranks. If these occur, the
men who are responsible for it will not be
easily forgiven by the denioc- ats of the
country. Telegram.
