! The people are in earnest this year,
whether tho politicians are or not.
Those who imagine that the injection
OF the customary clap-trap into the
party platform is all that In necessary to
secure popular support, are very much
mistaken. The reform parsnps OF 1876
are not to be buttered by fine phases. .--

Large numbers Of tho shrewder and

An effort is being made by some Of
the hard money Republican papers to
show that the ipilationists really tri-

think that the Tamman yites also won
