The Republican party had glorious OPP
portunity to return 10 power in this State by
taking advantage Of the split in the Democracy,
and voting with the honest section. But it threw
its chance away in order TO bestow office upon
such Ring Republicans as BES. FRANKLIN
BAsnRRE and HrSRr Smith, and such nominal
Republicans as JAMES GALWAY and ALEXANDER
suLEa, and to get two millions Of dollars for the
Midland Railroad, and to enact charter and an
election law restoring to the people Of this city
their municipal rights by lodging them all in the
bands Of Mr.. A. 0'HALL.
Those individual Republicans who took their
pay in the above methods, or got cash down from
the Ring, made good thing out of the affair
but the party itself was sold dog cheap.
