Republican Dialogue.

FARMER WHITE-Good morning, friend
Jones.
PoLlT1cAL JONES. Happy to see you friend
White.
W.-Have you read the resolutions of the
Republican State Centra. Committee, virtually
disowning Republicansm?
P. J.-Wel friend White, you see our
friends have got the country into terrible dit
fculty and the measures OF our Governor are so
unsatisfactory. that we cannot hope to carry
the State this year without some new expedi-
ent.
WI think that as a party, having pr1nc-
ples worthy Of being carried out We ought to
stand up before the world and maintain them.
P.J.-True, but if we do see that the people
aae not patriotic enough to lace the music, we
must take such measures as will keep them in
the party or all will be lost.
F. W-Ifthe Republican party, have been
deceived by t:eir officers whom they have e.
| iected TO office, say turn them out, and elect
more worthy servants next time,
P. J.--Well, you see, Mr.. White, 1t we
should turn out all the officers OF the party,
there would not be anything more worth hav-
ing party for.
W.-Certainly you do not mean TO say that
Republican politicians have no other end IN
view than to get and hold State and County
offices?
p. J.-You do not understand me mean
that unless we can secure the offices, the town
gentlemen could not afford to cary on the cam
paigu. r,r
WI understand you, that the Republican
politicians have abandoned their cause with a
vain hope OF continuing in Office.
P.J.-Not at all, friend White, we mean TO
| h. a. hnt =
ars, to secure the next Legislature, and the
Governor and as many county officers as we
can, or we will not be able to carry our pm
ciples out.
=. WI begin ia fear that there is something
wrong in the party. do not like this propo-
sition of Gov. Chase to levy direct taxes on The
real estate for the payment of the interest OF
war debts
P.J.-My dear sir, hope that Republican
| will not show any want Of PATRIOTISM in thi
time OF our country's peril.
u W.-Mr jones, | have as much love OF cou
5 try as any man. never sought an office.

S, ticlans who heve got the people into this diff
Y. culty-who have no measures for the relief
rs US farmers, and no cure Tor low prices, but i
to sist that we shall support policy that eats
er up in taxes, without the least ray OF hope wht
m these increasing demands shall cease.
is P. J.-Truly, friend White, you are getti
a too much excited. Wemu all 90 it now, '
er have got into it. We shall compel these dem

- vote for men who have no other principles th
nd to get office, that they may live on the pub

stripes and stars.
P. il must go. G. BOD by sir. (Jones goi
