INTEINsICALLY the Republican party
isn't worth d-n. 1t is the fat of
the "pointers with pride" which gives
it any value, and though it is against
the grcenback theory, we freely admit
that in this case ".fat" don't amount

more than 80 cents, while "Intrinsical-

tender dollar. The Republican party
never had "Jewell."

Democratic rule or free trade. They
are all the result of carrying out the
ideas of such profound statesmen as
John Sherman, Dec Golyer Garfield and
Majah Mckinley. And haven't the
people had about enough of it!
