0848 8-2-67 2 2 Political Parties. Democratic. (Editorial). The Omaha herald remains steadfast in the faith that the Democratic Party will sooner or later Constitutionally govern the United States. The Herald hopes to see that pure and exalted son of New York, Horatio Seymour, our next president. The hews likes Seymour well but Geo H.

0848 7-26-67 2 2 Political Parties, Democratic. (Editorial) There are Democrats extant., at least persons who call themselves Democrats, who preach strategy to the party. Their discourse is to the effect that for the Presidency the Democratic party of the United States should nominate some military man like Grant or Sherman. They propose to beat Radicalism by nominating some man who is not an exponent of the Principles of Democracy. This they call Strategy. We want no such Strategy, We had enough of that in 1864. We desire now to see a square, honest, hotly-contested struggle to elect a Democratic Statesman President of the United States. We must fight for principles not plunder, leave the latter to Radicals. We must boldly avow our doctrines of Free Trade, Retrenchment and Reform and our Standard-bearer should be a longtime advocate and expounder of Democracy. We want no military in ours.

0848 4-26-67 2 1 Political Parties. Democrats.

The great issue for which we are contending is a restoration of the Union and their re-establishment of fraternity and peace between the North and the South, under a restored constitution. We want a return to the rule of the constitution and laws and freedom from the tyrannic sway of this lawless congress. We want to bring down the taxes and restore the days of republican simplicity when under Democratic administration it cost only 60 or 70 millions to administer the government and the taxes were so light that nobody felt them a burden.

0848 7-29-67 2 3 Political Parties Democrats. Party is undoubtedly a dead party. It has been so often killed that no sane person, trusting to the asseverations of its adversaries, can for an instant doubt it. The New York Herald in New York and Pennsylvania says-- "There is a great deal of controversy just now between the Democrats and Republicans as to the prospects of each in the coming elections in their States." Thad Stevens not long ago, said the Democrats would carry these States at the next election. A great many of his own party, not so far-sighted assert the contrary; while part of the Democrats are hopeful and the rest doubtful. All this shows the choas in which all parties are thrown. The success of either party depends upon their conduct and the management of the elections, but more so for the Democrats for they have the most vigorous fight to make. Still we agree with Thad Stevens, that they have a good chance of succeeding if they manage right. Omaha

Editorial Since July 1, 1865, the Radical Party has collected, in taxes from the people of the United States the large sum of One Billion and Two Hundred Million Dollars.

R: - that the negroes are their allies in the work of crushing out the liberties of the people, and making Grant the Government.
