publican organization at all times, because believe
that organization steadily adhered to and presevered
in is the only hope the country to the triumph
of Right against the disciplined cohorts of Despotism
and Democracy Wear in favor of strict discipline in
our ranks. We want people, like the Highanders,
to stand shoulder to shoulder invncibe in their

We don't want bush-fghting, any man hopping
about amongst the Trees thinking with his little shot

We have had enough of this folly and is quite time
every Republican had learned in this respect, wisdom
