If you do not want to do so you need not leave the Democratic party to vote for Blaine And Logan, and protection to American industries at this time. But I ask you to have manhood and Inde­ pendence enough to sliow the Demo­ cratic managers tiftt they can not openly insult you again by nominating against your protests such an enemy to our race as Grever Cleveland, run­ ning on a free trade platform, dictated by the aristocratic Cebden Club of London.'1 Fictions and Sham. ThoDemocratic flat form |« go long, its verbiage is so wearisome. And Its prevarications Are so numerous thAt to do It full justice would bo too greAt A task for one day or for many days. It can be criticised only in detail and by sections, No newspaper which con* aiders tho comfort of the reading pab» lie wilt attempt, during dog-days, to expose all the contradictions, fictions, sinuosities, flatulencies, and dedklts which it contAioa. An oqcasionAl sped* men must Answer as AU illustration ot the whole. Its false statements, false logic, false Inferences and fals* con­ clusions can bf exposed only AS A PAtetic salesman disposes of fyis worst --by sample. What the framers of this platform doubtless regarded As A series of ver|> forcible propositions Includes A denun­ ciation of Republican paliettSftf flUkO!> of a series of phantoms »M«a »t As* urt jsit^Br BLAINE DKMOCRAT8. "BlAine Democrats,1' remarks the New York Sun. -4 may be looked for during (he coming campaign, and they will doubtless be found." A slgni(leant remark this, from A Democratic source. Notwithstanding the defection of Harpers Weekly and otner journals from the Republicans, the Blaine Democrats will probably outnumber the Cleveland Republicans two to one. On this coast the desertion from the Democratic to the Republican army has already commenced. Prominent and life-long Democrats, disgusted with the conduct of the party and its would be dictators, have announced their Intention to act and vote with it no more, and have cast their let with the Republicans. Among them may bo mentioned J. K, Luttrell, a Demo* era tic ex-Congressman from this State; If. Y. Morehouse of Monterey, ex-Dis­ trict Attorney, and a prominent' poll* ticians of that county; L. C. Branch, of Stanisluns, well known in Democratic, circles of that Democratlo ridden And ring-ruled county; and the Hon. TT. M* Cutter, Assemblyman from Yuba. Com­ menting on the facts, the Amador Ledger adds: The indications are that we are going to have a tolerable heavy srep of Blaise Democrats in AmAdor county this year, enough it is bolleved to swing Little Amador Squarely Iuto the Republican column, jpnftlijjlr. neighboring county, El Dorado, the Georgetown Gazette*- hitherto clas­ sed as Domjficratlc iu politics, has come out openly for Blaine without waiting or caring to know whom the Demo­ crats will nominate. This sirn^y tnojnis, that in the judgemnt of the tho Democrats have no/man In their ranks worthy of contesting tho Presidency with Blaine,--CaHfor* nia Paper. - See our All wool men's suits, In gray, brows, and light brown, perfect fitting and All slfcos,only fP,75 a suit, Yety stylish young men's wool suits 16toa0 ye Are, At IMS*.

The Democrats in Congress have favored and supported every subsequent grant of public lands of railroad cor­ porations. The opposite policy, that of giving the land to actual settlers for homesteads, Is a measure of Republican policy, adopted by a Republican Con­ gress under the Administration of Abraham Lincoln. The platform describes the diminu­ tion of American commerce as the re­ sult of Republican measures. American ships and shipping were uswept off the high seas11 in the language of the Dem­ ocracy, not as tho result of Republican policies, but by Democratic rebel cruis­ ers arid privateers, It was Democratic piracy, not Republican legislation, which destroyed American commerce. But American commerce has partially recovered from the attacks of its rebel enemies and is again a thrifty and growing element of national prosperity This lying platform declares that Re­ publican policy has surrendered to Great Britain "the of the world." The United States furnishes to the markets of the world their wheat, their corn, ttieir cotton, their beef, their pork, their agricultural Im­ plements, their sewing machines and ten thousands of ether articles produced by American Ingenuity and Industry under the protection of a Republican tariff. The platform denounces the financial and revenue system^which prpduoes a surplus in the Government's Treasury of 9100,000,000 a year. The Democratic policy of "horizontal" tariff reduction would, by stimulating the importation of dutiable goods, double or treble this annual surplus and at the same time -yould cripple and debase American in­ dustry. Iu its very sympathies the Democracy Is a fraud. Its pathetic adulation of Samuel J. Tilden Is a sham And A false pretense. If they wanted to vindicate Tllden, why did they not renominate him in 18S0? Because he knew and they knew that the history of the.uci- pher dispatches'" was then too fresh in the publio mind, and that overwhelm­ ing defeat on that infamons record was then inevitable.--Journal. % thera m lend-pendttl thSnttl ' ai address A< liksalri Ing that nine tl never think flUK wanrtOMstt SOOM OHO OTO. *"-•" "1 ^ fellow*, proud i|f They throw yon (M i and tinyl each pettqta^. we had in M by ttttMiffg mAn peiMllil boiled fn hung, < witMfet bcoottori *onr of tho moon, £t 1] forest whore t«» lead penoll thfl^ Here wo Are, ro|^||||y Iain, not A lead|Mil It »Ay be half n dig* man from wboSO «nn lift a pencil to isftli* ] We lost.
