ERA


A pew political era is opening before shs
country
The negro-cyeie Of orr politics has roRndgd
20 It's conclusion through civil war, social yiv'
lenec, industrial disorder, and has ended IN
/ giving freedom 10 four millions Of the negro
race, aud the ballot TO its adult males. - he
old order changeia, yielding place 10 new.
The politics Of this new era will come no nc
TO every mans business and bosom rs ney -
before, being vital to private prosperity and
the maintenance of Democratic Republic
For not only are the manifold cncroach-
ments Of Federal upon State powers and Of
both upon the large liberty Of American free
men now as always to be repealed with cease
less vigilance; not only is home rule or local
scsi.goyefnmeut now as always 10 be main
tanned for the best guarantee OF eva liberty
and of national greatness, but besides, the
victories Of peace which are to give splendor
10 the new political era must be- won against
every advantage which even enemies Of free
institutions could desire or possess
gigantic Debt, which the honor of the
country is pledged TO pay, encnmbers al our
industries with its oppressive burden. Never
theless our systems of Municipal and State
Taxation are crude, unequal, and delraud the
poor to release the rich. Nevertheless our
system Of Federal Taxation is such an infan.-
Gus masterpiece of ignorance and incapaciiy
put TO the vile uses of monopolists and favor
ties and thieves, as never anywhere has dis
graced modern civilization since Louis XIV,
with his methods Of taxation rather than its
amount paralyzed the industries of France.
And along with the Tariff, which prohibits the
export of our manufactures, abridges the NUM-
Der ofour industries, cuts down the profit
upon the exports from oil our farms, panta-
tons, and mines; aboIshes our shipping from
off the high seas, and iilches IS from the peo-
pies pockets every time il puts 81 into the U.

OF fiuctnatng value as the measure Of values
in every act of domestic exchange.
Whatever parties may ariseor fall, whatever
their defeats or triumphs, and whatever their
names, THE WORLD now and always will re-
main the unhinching champion of
LIBERAL PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRACY,
whereof Freedom defined by Justice, is the
polar star.
