party in 1861; since that time II
has stood as skeleton in a physician $
Office. strung on wires. The Demo
cratic party, signed over their rlght
title. and interest in the government
of the country on the day OF the cleo
ton of Abraham Lincoln. The Tam
manv Ring capped the climax IN the
death of that once old time and hon
ored party. 1t died of dishonesty.
The Republican party has had con-
troll of the government for the last
sixteen years of plumber and robbery.
'.He that Expresses the poor reproach-
eth his MAKER Monied monopolies
bought up congressman. The leading
journals of the nation have been brlbed
to deceive the people and have become
curse to the nation initead OF bless
ing. Public journals can do a great
deal of good or harm. Baalam the
false prophet was hired to curse the
children of Israel but the Lord stopped
him on his way and he exclaimed snow
can curse whom God has blessed!
What can be expected of public jour
nails so long as they can be hired to
place dishonest men in office! For
years past money has sent congress-
men and senators to Washington; they
in turn stole all they could; took all
the brides they could get and loaded
the nation with taxes regardless OF
the Woodworking class Of men,the real
people. The leaders Of the RepnDll-
can party are for plumber and selt-ag-
grandizement and dishonesty,
unequaled in the annals OF history.
In the second term of President
Grants administration the leaders OF
that party applanded every tyramcal
act of General Grant. who trampled
upon Justice, violated constitutional
law and robbed the sovereign states OIL
the south of republican forms OF
government: and acted as dictator,
even as Oliver Cromwell once ruled
England. The leaders of the republi-
can party in all his unlawful acts JUS
titled him.
Reader;pause for u moment ana ask
yourself this question:-do yon see any
possibility of reformation in the po-
llitical world! These old parties must
be abandoned. To-day they stand be-
fore the American people like the
Roman criminal who was sentenced to
be tied still alive to dead body, ana
he carried the decaying corpse about
with him until life terminated.
Reader; are you an adherent and an
upholder of this party that tried to
break down our great Republican gov
eminent and for years past to turn 1t
into an Empire! The Republican par
ty is tried, found guilty and no longer
can be trusted. The glory is departed
from that party. Reader; no doubt
YOU have often asked the question:
Do we live in an empire or a republic!
Let me introduce to you the great re-
storer of American liberties in the
person of President Hayes. You will
ask. what has he donel He has restored
Republican government to the SOW
ereign states of the South, he has done
, more in the first three months than
Grant did in four years to reconcile
the north and south. blessed are
the peace-makers for they shall see
Cod know it is said that Mr.. TildeT

dred and fifty thousand of popular
majority, but Mr.. Hayes was elected
constitutionally and SO inaugurated
: The President of the United States
does not come to sit in the natiOna

the simple honest American people
who were deceived by both politica
parties. God guides the destiny Q
nations as he does those of individuals
