Show THE REPUBLICAN REPUBLICAN- PARTY PAST AND PRESENT From a study of the tle Republican party during durinO the time tinge of Abraham Lincoln I was led to tob believe that the party existed for the benefit bendit of the people But lately the times order of have changed and the general things reversed The Tile people exist now for forthe forthe forthe the Republican party According to the tongued silver-tongued orators who are spreading over the land the doctrines doctrines doctrines doc doc- trines of the Grand Old Party there is nothing nothing- more for the Almighty to do For instead of his resting every seventh day the Republicans are fixing it so that he lie can rest every day clay They Thy have leave improved on the old method of nature They cause the wool on oil the backs of the sheep to grow thicker longer and finer than ever before This th they y accomplish by feeding them in inthe inthe inthe the springtime a little tariff salt They cause the sugar beets to grow larger and when the earth is dry and parched their magic wand is passed across the sky and lo 0 and behold thc the earth is refreshed with the cool drops of tariff rain Democrats groping about in their feeble way have been of the opinion that the in interests interests in- in of the people are entitled to the thc highest consideration but it is evident that such is not the case for the Republicans make slake it clear that the thc people exist for something something something some some- thing else ese and not that something something- else exists for the people This has grow grown to be bea a political proverb and when the time comes as we are promised by the tile Republicans Republicans Republicans that it will when everybody I will get getrich getrich yet rich by being taxed for the benefit of some someone someone one else perhaps even Democratic eyes will behold the radiant glory of the g gorgeous gorgeous- lined hued policies of the Republican party In Inthe Inthe Inthe the me mean n tim time we Democrats ought to be thankful that we live and are permitted to grope rope along in the dark lark A.
