The Christian statesmen arc rush.
ing to the front since the managers
Of the Republican machine have
started the third term movement
Coafax, Subsidy Pomeroy, and
others like them have crept out of
their holes to join the boom. They
are willing to sacrifice themselves
again on the altar Of public plumber,
and they believe the only way this
republic can be preserved is BY hav.
ing a strong government at the cen.
ter, and BY restoring the Rings to
power. This is Grants opinion also,
confirmed BY Foreign travel, and BY
his contact with kingly rulers, who
think National debts, standing
armies, and grinding taxation 90
many public blessings, which the
people, who must furnish food for
powder, and whose labor is mort.
gagged to support Emperors, Kings,
Princes, and Royal Households,
should delight to honor. The third
termers want . shoddy COurt at
Washington, and they say the good
time is coming when these priv.
leges viii be surely enjoyed.
