PAKLY AND PLATFORM. ‘he Democratic Party has Ex ed 100 Years. It Elected its Candidates Sixteen times | Out of Twenty-six— tteen Par- ties have Opposed it, but the Longest Liyed Existed only Thirty-six Years From 1792, when 2 country were first political parties in national | election to 1892, 100 years, 19 dif ferent politics! parties have named | candidates for president. The came into existence in 1792 aud re- elected George Washington presi dent. It has continued to exist with | only one serious break in its ranks ; and is to-day stronger than ever be fore in its history. The cratic party sentatives assembled in convention the voters of democratic party national was the platform on which Andrew Jackson was elected president in 1832. That platforin declared for internal improvements by the government,an adjustment of customs duties to afford proper pro tection to American industries and in favor of civil service reform. These declarations are among the features of the principles of to day, York Sun. During the 100 years of its exist ence the democratic party has nam- ed candidates for president and yice- president 26 times, and elected its candidates 16 times. Only three other parties elected presidents during the century polit ical parties have existed. These parties were the federalist, whig and republican. The former twice elect- ed John Adams president. The whig party elected two presi- dents, W. H. Harrison in 1840 and “Zachary Taylor in 1838 The republican party elected its candidates six timus—in 1869, 1864, 1868, 1872, 1880 and 1888 The same party seated R. B. Haves by fraud in 1876 after Tilden (Dem.) had been elected, receiving a major- ity of both the popular vote and the electoral vote. The federalist, whig and republi can parties are the only ones that have ever suceeded in defeating the democratic party ina tion. It is, therefore, an interesting fact that the federalist party was in existence just thirty six, years was suceeded by the whig party. which maintained a natioual organization for 36 years. That, in turn, was followed by the republican party which is 36 years old this year. During the early years of the gove ernment, prior to 1792 politicians were classed as federalists and anti federalists, the essential difference inthe principles advocated that the former general government more over the states than was advocated by the latter. The question was ove of states rights. In 1792 the anti federalists united and organized under the name of the democratic republican party. The party that year re elected George Washington president. The federalists also supported Washing ton, but also succeeded in electing John Adams vice-president. FEDERALISTS. In 1766 the federalists main democratic says the New uttional being favored giviug the Jefferson by a majority of three in| the electoral college In 1800 Adams and Jefferson were again opposing candidates. This time the election was thrown into the house of representatives and Jefferson was elected. In 1804 tho federalists voted for C. C. Pinckney of South Carolinia and Jefferson was re -elected. receiv- ing 162 electoral votes to 14 for the| federalist candidate. In 1808 the democrats elected James Madison by a large majority and re-elected him in 1812. James Monroe, the democratic candidate was elected by a still larg er majority in 1816, and in 1820 re-} elected without opposition.
