On this plat form all progressives can {stand,; to this banner all liberals can rally and for this cause all Democrats can and I know will stand united. “I know this convention has had its differences, but all these things were but the thunderstorms that cleared the clouds away and left shining on us the sun of coming victory and success. “When I am duly advised of the nomination it will be my duty to speak further on these and kindred themes. I shall, therefore, do no more at the moment than to ex press my appreciation and to ex press my confidence that I shall head in this campaign a united, a millitant, and a victorious party.” NO COMPROMISE WITH REACTION, SAYS DAVIS NEW YORK, July 10.—In a ! statement issued here late last night, John W. Davis, the Democra tic presidential nominee, said: “There can be no compromist with reaction. Liberal principles must and will prevail. This is the mandate of the hour and I shall obey it.” Mr. Davis asserted that not the least weighty of the obligations that had fallen to him was “the duty to put before the country as clearly Round Trip Summer Fares svonM|Bnericus, Ga. • • $57.18 ■ . . 70.18 ■ia 70 * 46 s< * e ' > > < *' ’ ’' i I ■ .
