mans so far as can be seen, are just. as
unanimously against the paper money cpl
demic. as against the prayer epidemic.
Even the workingman Karl Kings is as
sensible on this question as Karl SEIZURE
This unanimity, naturally, has no retro
tractive effect on the present members of
Congress, chosen prior to the panic in 1873 :;
on the contrary these, in their foolish idea
that they have behind them the "Repub-
lican party, have hobbled along in the foot
steps of the great scoundrel from the east,
Butler. But very soon they will find, to
their loss, that the Republican party, ;" in
the West is not the majority without the
German vote, and that not FIVE out of one
hundred former German Republicans are
willing to 60 with party which has perpe-
trated an act branded by itself as ma
tional crime. What Mr.. A. G. Hesing,
under whose lead the Republican party in
Chicago has won so many victories, recent
ly said TO the Republican Central Commit.
tee of Illinois possesses a significance
extending far beyond the limits of our
city and our State. 1t signifies that the
presidential election of 1872 was the last
IN which the votes of the German citi
Gems will be given to the Republican party
in sufficient numbers to enable it to sue
coed in the West Mr. Hesing SAID
not merely what he thinks. or what tbs
ILLINOIS Stats Zeitung thinks, but what
95 out of loo of those Germans who, in
1872, voted for Grant and Farwell think
The Republican party in the Western
States became the ruling power through
German votes; through the falling off q
German votes it will become the defeated
minority party, as has already happened il
! Wisconsin.
Therefore, the German papers in tn
East would do better if they sought t.
measure with their own eyes the presen
opinions and tendencies in the West, rath
er than To initiate the ridiculous statement
of English American papers, which star
on the assumption that the German ele
ment in the West is just as weak and de
void of influence as it is in the East, Thus
il would be well for the Philadelphia Dem
Ok,rdt to look around in its own State O
Pennsylvania, since it has for the past te
years stood ready to support this wretche
paper money swindle. If those who sup
port these frauds consist partly of asse
and partly of knaves, it can be said wit
truth that the West principally furnishe
only the former.-but the East the latter
