In this hour of prosperity nnd plenty, plen-ty, running over a period of nearly half 'a century of unparalleled, raetch-less raetch-less Republican rule, this hour of political po-litical unrest and personal strife, amidst the clamor for a change without with-out reasons therefor, wo call upon tho Republicans of Cache county to consider well tho all Important problem prob-lem of tbo hour. Political parties, llko Individuals havo records ot their own. Tho record of tho Republican party Is tbo history of our country. It has met and solved ovory national question that has demanded solution for over a half a century. Its record rec-ord Is clean and spotless. Tho Democratic Dem-ocratic party has a record too, a record re-cord that does not Insplro hope, and Is remembered only In regret. Tho now party, founded on personal ambition am-bition may servo as ballast, It will never stcar tho ship. In tho words of tho martyred William McKlnloy: "You do not havo to guess what tho Republican party will do. Tho wholo world knows Us purpose. It has enacted It Into law nnd executed It In administration. Thoro will bo prophets of evil and falso teachers. Somo part of tho column mny waver hitd wander nway from tho standard, jut thero will ever rally around It a mighty majority to preservo it stainless." |
