Democratic - newspapers are
having a good deal to say about
"democrats who aro preparing
to join the Republicans." -This
is the sort of talk that is doing
the democratic party a good deal'

verge from the iews of a 2x4
editor without joining the repub
lican party; he can separate him
self a long way from the popu
listic progrem palmed off as
democracy without "joining th

some of he self-constituted
