may Prove The destruction OF our own party any

beue H. that thu, de il unnecessary 20 put festn aDy

Impressed with the importance OF flooding these
Admristrs ion or Pro-Savery Co'gressonal Dis.ncc,
al once with such documents a. will sid IN accom-
plishing the objects desire, the Matt nal kepuol-
ian A.so citation at Washington City, which vss or
tspized in 1855, solely on tae voluntary principle,
with no salaried officers or SCENTS and when pub
ished and circulated rome 600 900 OF documents
dining the last Presidential campaign, have resolved
70 take this respor sbiity and labor upon the rselv,
knowing the truthfulness Of the old adsge, 'hs
what is every body's business Is nobody pisces
Io fact, no other organization has the same iAeN~o
for the De foImauce of this work.
Here at the sea, of the General Government, Were
the Congress Of the United Ststes 10 Assembled,
we have peculiar facilities for eetung up Po'h-
cal tracts and documents, az also through the men.
bers Of Congress- Of obtaining LETS OF names, AID
having documents enveoped and sent free 81 postage,
which caunot be efforded elsewhere
We propose at this time to devote our s,tenbcs
solely 10 these districts now 'rp presented Ia Co..
ertss. relying upon the Republican Members OF Con-
eress 20 take ali Necessary care Ct their own dsr,s,
Which if faithfully attended TO, WIZ impose upon
them IA heavy a tax OF time and money ~ can or
ought 10 be expected OF them, and OF the extent Of
which but few have sny just conceptions
But thstandng tnisgreat amount oil voluntary
.ery ice brought to aid in the envelopng and erc
la.ipg of documents, stl there are other heavy e.
penses attending it, which mus, be paid ior--ueh "
printing paper and preparation of documents.
Now, ia order to carry out our proposed pisa OF
free circulation Of suitable documents IN ms-rtPre
sented Congressional districts, funds must be ,eed
AZ our disposal for that objec'. The AdminsIs'oa
party are already at work, with no lack OF funds.
Each SAFE has its separate orgsIizston IN ths city,
compostd of Government clerks whose name 10
piopl aid upon whose sslsries regular percentage
levied by the CT iefs of bureaus to meet teeapness
The RI publican party has no such machinery bpt
in operation, nor do we think it just and proper tnI
such degrading should be resorted 20 IN order

may be used by il for party purposes the trse-s
offering Of free PEOPLE in The Free STATES Aud

and in which they have a common interest.
We hope every Republican opponent Of the PRES
