The Democratic party from its foundation, three-quarters of a century ago, has held and acted upon ideas which tend to j^^irity in government. It has exacted in its leaders a higher standard of oiRcial purity than any other party in the country. It has never elected to the presidency any man of as low a standard of official life as either of the three Republican presidents. Every Democratic national convention would, by com- mon consent, liave rejected from its nomination a man who had filled t...he public offices with his relatives, or who had been enriched by costly presents while exercising the immense power of the presi- dency to promote men's interest, or gratify men's ambition. Even in the corrupt times of James the First, the greatest intellect which has appeared among men, Bacon, was impeached by our ancestors, because, as Lord High Chancellor of England, he had received presents from suitors in causes depending before him. His defence was that he had decided those causes against the parties which had made the presents.
