Origin of the Republican Party OF
.'l Iowa
The Republican party Of Iowa wss
organized ut a convention held at Iowa
City, which was then the Capital, on
tho 22nd Of February, the anniversary
Of Washington's birthday, in 1856. The
convention met under the following
call. which was first published in the
Mt. Pleasant Observer, and thence
passed into oil the papers Of the State
which favored the movement:
To the Citizens Of Iowa Believing
that majority of the citizens Of Iowa
are opposed to the political principles OF
the present Administrations, and to the
introduction Of slavery into territory
now free, and also that made free by
the com promise Of 1920, and that the
party styling itself the "Democra,ic
party" are striving to make slavery a
great national institution, contrary to
tie principles laid down in the Declare.

City, on the 22nd day of February, for
the purpose Of organizing Republican
party, to make common cause with a
similar party already formed in several
States of the Union. MANY CITIZENS.

this, our State, and a very large major,
ity Of the counties composing it, have
been in the hands, politically speaking,
of the Republicans. The affairs Of no
State in the Union have been SO judi

administered, as have those Of Iowa.

He is not democrat. He is essentially
an aristocrat--an apologist of one man
power. His mind is full of gewgaws of
fancy and he know low to clothe his
obnoxious ideas, which belong to past
age and not to the present hour, in
oratorical habiliments that make them
beautiful. But, after all, he is super
fetal reasoner-a dangerous mana
partisan who will ruin any cause he
cspouses. He may not be a rascal, but
if not he is brilliant fool or maniac.
Davis is deeper-.less brilliant, but selfish
as the devil and proud. He would, if
he could, involve the country in general
ruin. lie is as dangerous as the yellow
fever or nitro lycerine.
With men of this kind-with the
element at the south for which these
men speak--the democrats should hold
no parley. Let them threaten to with
draw their support. We would rather
be defeated without than succeed with
them. Success brought to the party
by their support would give to their
counsels an importance that might work
evil to the country. But, in fact, their
cooperation gives us no strength. 1t
robs us of advantage, and gives to the
republicans weapons of political war
fare against which we cannot prevail.
1t is necessary, in order to achieve sue
cess, that the democracy cast aside the
burden Of dead issues it is also neces-
sary that they repudiste the southern
fre-e eaters Of the Toombs and Davis
