interest of the Republican party. When
the Republicans had control in Congress.
the national treasury was drawn upon
whenever occasion required to pay any
and all claims for party work. The
present Congress is Democratic however
and will closely scrutinize every item OF

Democratic Congress is pledged to a con
scientious discharge of duty, aud an eco

whether Republicans ike it or not, will
act for the best interests OF the whole peo-
pie. While the Republican party was IN

was the rule, but since the Democrats
