A Olear Cut Vlaw of the Differ

Parties m the United
States.
Hon. D. 8. Hondoraon, of Alkon,
who spoke at tho masa mooting io
Union rooontly, has defined tho diffor
onoon botwoon tho Domoorata and Bo
{mblioanu in thia country, r.j follows:
bellow Citiaens:
It is cstoomod a high privilcgo to bo
invited to address tho noonie of this
favored sootion of South Carolina. '
When your unexpeotod and unaolioi
tod invitation oamo, to oomo hithor
and address you on tho gravo national
issues ponding boforo tho Amorioan
pooplo it was aoooptod as a call to duty.
I have felt that in tho dissuasion of
thoao issuos at this mooting, in an off
elootion yoar, whioh is only tho pre
liminary of many whioh may follow
noxt yoar, it woro host not to addrosa
you in an off hand, oxtomporancous,
mannor, whioh ia boat R ni tod to per
sonal politioal dobato, hut to oom in it
my reflection to manuaoript in tho
hopo that I may bo moro aoourato, auc
oinot and oloar.
Issues aro brought about by tho hap
pening of ovonta, whioh gonorato ideas
of interoab and oonoorn; and hoing dia
oussod and aotod upon by tho public
booomo formulated into oonoroto faota
aa tho basis of publie and privato ao
tion.
Nations Aro initiated or doatroyod hy
tho result of such issuos; and it ia tho
duty of ovory liberty loving oitizon, as
the best indioin to his right to citizen
ship to tako &n aotivo part in such
ovonta.
Wo should hiing lo tu?O???id?r?U?h
of suoh matters not lthotorioal pyro
technics in spoooh and glittering gen
eralities from history, but common
sonso and reason and apply tho subjoot
at hand to our homo nooda and homo
dutioa.
As a pooplo, ns a nation, by tho per
mission of Providenoo wo oooupy tho
greatest country of tho earth. Born
amid tho poans of liberty; liborty of
oonsoienoe; liborty of spoooh, and
liborty of religion, shohas boon baptized
in tho wators of adversity and is now
marching up tho slopoa of apparont
prospority and powor.
It is tho poople who oomposo tho
government. It is tho pooplo who
formulate the idoas that guido national
Srow th; and it is tho pooplo who must
eoido tho issues whioh tho formula
tion pf snob ideas bring about.
AU nations of tho nature of our
Amorioan republic must havo rival
politioal partios. It atartod soon af tor
tho breath of lifo waa blown into tho
body politio of this National ropublio
aa tho neooasarv concomitant of tho
faot that mon run tho govornmont.
They have oxistod ovor sicco undor
various names, orcods and bannora and
will continuo to romain as long as tho
ropublio livos, or until its onemios, i
thoy havo their way, sink ?tinto Imperi
alistic oblivion.
Tho written charts whioh bind us
together, namely, "Tho Doolam tion of
Independence"; "Tho Artiolos of Con
federation" and "Tho Constitution of
tho Unitod Staten of Amorioa", wero
begotton in tho revolt of liborty against
tho Boyal Imporialiatio colonization
iden. Tho Constitution was a grant of
power from tho pooplo; what was not
therein granted to tho govornmont
theroby formed was roservod absolutely
to the pooplo.
? Every lino, every syHablo of thia
Magna Charta of tho pooplo was ovolv
ed from a struggle of dobato botwoon
contrali/.od govornmont on tho ono
hand and a government of tho poople
on tho othor.
Tho dust of battle whioh vindioatod
tho liborty prinoiploa of tho Constitu
tion had soarooly rolled away whon
Hamilton and his followers espoused
tho causo of a Contralizod government;
and Je. ff orson and his followers tho
causo of a Domooraoy pure and simple
Evorsinoo through vwious mutations
and ?bangos, amid shifting scones ?nd
oiroumatancos; amid battlo and treason
and traitoriam and tyranny and pros
pority and advorsity, tho atrugglo baa
oontinuod; and it subsists today.
You oallod thia mooting to day bo
oauao it waa still going on.
Tho Hamiltonian, Fodcralistio or
Republican party bonding all of it?
onorgios to ouutralizo all powor in ono
Fodoral head with tho maohinory for
the promotiou of its oombinos and de
pendencies to porpotuato tho power of
that head; and tho Jofforsonian or
Domooratio party bonding its onorgios
for tho prosorvation of popular govern
ment and a striot oonp.< motion of tho
constitution handod o wn by thc
fathers.
Tho same Domooratio party ha? soon
dofoat and stood it like a Spartan hero.
It haa aeon victor/ and dispensed
power; and stood that suooosa with
equanimity and disponsod that powor
aa an ovon handod govornor of tho poo
plo's rights.
It may again seo defeat, but it will
again soe viotory if its sons aro truo to
ita causo.
It has stood a? tho Groat Conservator
of tho buBinoss intorests of tho oountrj ;
demanding oompotition in all tho
marta of trado. So that labor and in
dustry in all modos of lifo oan bo oom
ponsfttod.
It han stood against tho onoroaoh
monts of the groody money gatherer
and for the promotion of tho hoalthy
trado and enterprise in all dopartments.
For tho oxtonsion and protection of
oommereo to tho remotest regions of
tho earth BO that Amorioan progress
and Amorioan onterpri?o by tho making
of hotter goods at ohoapor prices could
oommand tho markots of tho world;
imd it advocates to day tho promotion
and protection of that trade and oom
mereo to tho fallost cxtont.
It has stood for tho onforocmont of
its own lifo bought dootrino that thorn
must be no further onoroaohment upon
Amorioan torritory by Continental
powers for the purposoa of monarchical
colonisation and vasnol rule; and it
should novor surrender or violate that
prinoiplo of solf proaorvation and jun
tioo, least tho world powers shall olaim
such violations as a protext for their
groody aotion.
It has gono further; and by dood and
aot stood for tho poaoefui acquisition of
Amorioan torritory for tho proaorvation
of Amorioan liborty and tho develop
ment of Amorioan enterprise and
progroas, but it novor has and I pray
God it never will lond its aid and sanc
tion to tho aoqusition of foroign torri
tory for plunder and polf. '
In 1803, undor tho loadorship of ita
founder, tho immortal Jeiforson, by
poaoof ul moans and monoy frooly grant

od in timos of poaoo bv tho peoplo, U
orootod tho atora and Btripos ovor tho
Louisiana purchase nf tor tho (ri oolbr
of Franoo was withdrawn; and in that
aot as a parc, wrttton in tho oontraot of
purohaso, it guarantood tho full right
of statehood to tho ooinponont parts of
tho torritory; and protection of lifo and
liborty to ovory inhabitant thereof. It
took in tho lund and proooodod to gov
orn it with "tho consent of tho govorn
ad", carrying out tho bod rook dootrino
of the Union of Statos. It would mako
that nr.mo apoRtlo of Domoornoy shud
der in his ootilo, to knew that in loss
than a oontury thereafter tho govorn
mont, whioh ho had so earofully kopb
co.vn in, ita territorial accpatroniouta to
tho priuoiplosof liborty, in tho far East
away from our oooan washed Hopublie
had soized torritory olnitnod by two
I dilioront sots of people and wero on
' deavoring to for oe upon it a govern
ment oontrnry to their wishoB and do
siro.
This samo old Domooratio party after
it had givon liborty to tho Toxan re
public, ovon by foroo of arma, saw no
diegraoo in hauling down its-glorious
Hag from tbo ramparts of tho Monte ?u
rea?; and there will bo no diegraoo in
tho hauling down of that flag trom tho
baltlomont of Moro Casllo whon Cuba's
own govornmont is oouiploto, exoept it
bo tho stigma upon her freedom of ac
lion whioh tho Platt amondmont on
graftod in ita Constitution, put there by
tho Ropublioan party.
In tho timo of our dircdisastor whon
property valuoB by tho fato of war ha 1
shrunkon to nothing; whon lifo was
soarooly worth living; whon hopo was
near gono forever, and tho Ropublioan
party big and bloated with blood and
power, sought to make tho Southern
statos dopondenoios and tho abodo of
\uUuros to proy on us and to oat out
our vitals, that samo old Domooratio
Mothor with tho bravo sturdy Domo
orats of tho Mast and YVoat stood by us
and holpcd ua to assort our manhood
and rogaiu our froodoru of action.
And now in tno high tido of tho Na

Domooratio party (srhioh has stood eua
shino and shadow and will novor die)
has boon twioo dofcatod booauso of
somo difforonoos of opinion as to oortain
party polioios and booauso of tho uio of

lu tho paraphrased words of Tom
Watson or Privato John AUOD) I know
not whioh, if wo did it, if wo followed
this frioudly advioo whoro would wo bo
avY,
xuo Domooratio party would bo dead,
tho llopublicnu par.y would bo tho
masters of tho situation and tho scat

forood into Populistio party, Vi^oh is
now snoerod at by somo of its formerly
ardent admirers.
That is what tho paro nts who aro
behind this movement to invado tho
South hopo for, but your goodjueg
mont, your patiiotio purposes and high
regard for duty to tho past and in tho
present will stamp it out in its incipi

Nay, rathor lot tho momorablo words
of tho groat Baa Hill of Goorgi?? w
thoy sounded through tho halls of tho
United States Sonato sink into your
heart, "Tho South is onco moro in tho
homo of her fathers and thero sho pro
poses to romain," exerisiug hor privil
eges and standing with all lovors of
liborty in tho grand union of statos
against monopolios and oombinos and
oonlralization, no mattor in what form
it oomoo.
Why should wo tako suoh a oourso?
Why should wo as Amerioans ns woli
as Southerners and Carolinians, abro
gate our fealty to tho Demooratio party;
cr worso still keep our namo as Demo
crat and carry Ropublioan prinoiplos
into its party council ti, and thus attack
its vitals whilst avowing ourso YJB in
blalont terms mom bora of its politioal
household V
Tho negativo answor to this irquiry
comes easy from a si m plo diapaaeion
ato statement of tho avowed policios
for which tho Ropublioan party s.ands
inthis year of Graoo.
Ln iib KOKKiGN polioy itadvooatcs in
its platforms and through its adminis

aggression beyond tho Wcstorn hom

whioh whon pushod to its finality moans
rampant imperialism; and SECOND, it
advocates Congressional absolutism in
tho macfgomont of suoh colonios with
out regard to tho limitation of tho
Groat Constitution.
In its DOMESTIC polioy it harbors and
upholds tho rankest monopoly in tho
shape of trusts and oombinos, in dos
tiuotion ol' competition in irado, thus
striking at tho very artcrioii of industrial
lito and homo living among tho maosos
of tho people
It prides ilBolf as tho originator and
uncenaiog ohtnifion of tho protcotivo
turill not being ooutont to ring from the
pooplo only one.ugh to pay tho legiti
mate oxpensos of tho govornmont; and
to allow to tho consuming mastics tho
fruits of lcgitimato oom pol i lion ovon
in tho neoossitios of lifo for tho sako of
protection of favored olasses which sup
port it in its machinations and plans, it
ostablishos a tubbor tariff whioh op
prostsos and tyramnizes thoso who need
protootion muoh moro than those who
aro avowodly aidod.
it goes further and proposes to grant
bountied and subsidios to ship linos un
der tho pretension that it is io aid tho
building up of our Morohant Marino,
whon it is woll known and understood
that such favoritism is only lo pay off
pest party dob ts and if inaugurated as
tho polioy will tond to dostroy tho on
orgies of our pooplo and thoir individu
ality, by causing thom to look to tho
patcrcnlism of govornmont, instead of
rolying on thoir own efforts to ex tond
thoir trado.
Such dootrinos aro aral oap only bo
considered republican no mattor by
whom promulgated. No ono oan or
ought to objootto tho exoroiso personal
proforonoo in opinion but lot thoso who
como out and avow suoh idoas annouaoo

Apart from this paramount oonsidora
tion? what nooossity, oxpodionoy or
justification is there in our foroign re
lations for an Amorioan polioy of foroiga
territorial oxpansion or kingly coloniza
tion?
No ono says a word against tho ex
pansion and oxtonsion of our trado and
oom m or oo to tho uttermost part of tho
oarth ; and its full protootion hy ovory
agency nf govornmont. If China is to
bo dismomborod, as she will bo somo

hy propor treaty relations and let tho
territory go to other nations who wish
to own it and thus ampio markets oan

Suoh a polioy bogun has no bounds
