Says the Cincinnati Volksfreund:
.''It is maintained that the Democratic
party gave IFS organization the death
blow when it indorsed the nomination
of the Republican Greeley in Baltimore.
We would like to ask whether the Re-
publican party ceased to exist when it
named itself the Union Republican par
ty, or when it nominated the Democrat
Andrew johnson for the office of Vice
President and the Democrat Brough for
the Office of Governor of Ohio! just as
the Republican party still exists in
