element from the business circles Of the country
than 1t has heretofore had II en- whose pTacti
cal experience anl knowledge in matters Of that
kind, will enable them tO grapple with and bring
tn a proper and just solution the difficult prob
lens which the debt and taxation OF tho Dem
Ocratic rebellion have Il reed upon us.
While many Of the nast issues will tend to
perpetuate and keep alive present political an.
tngOniSms, the new mes, bv their more direct
bearing upon the individual ct'z N, are likely To
become the controlling questions of the canvass
