THE REPUBLICAN WHISKY RING

full exposure of the whisky ring, show.

leaders in power at Washington, and

party, Bristow, prosecuted the thieves

have prosecuted all of them if be could

cause he prosecuted these violations of
the revenue law which he was appointed
to prOtect-simply because he showed
himself to be a man Of honesty and Of
courage - Secretary Bristow lost all
standing in the Republican party. The
leaders Of that party assailed him four
years ago with bitterness and hatred.
General Garfield is just the man who
would suit for whisky and other ring
plunder schemes. He would prove an
instrument little calculated or disposed
to set his face against the old cormorants
or the new. They have their grab
hooks on him, and this is not the case
with General Hancock. Hancock would
gointo theWhite House uncontaminated
and free to act as the Peoples honest
President.
General Mcdonald intends, in his
forthcoming book, to supply missing
"links in the chain of evidence of James

REPUBLICAN papers delight to state
these days what wonders the Republi.
can party ba7 accomplished in the way
of reducing the public debt, but they
take care not to cay how much money
they have collected with which to do
the little affair, For instance, between
the years 1869 and 1874 there was paid
into the United States Treasury in taxes
the enormous sum Of 81, ,677 100000. Of
this amount about 1913 100000 were
paid out for interest on the public debt
and for pensions, leaving 1888. 100000 for
what are termed the ordinary expenses
Of government. Now, compare this with
government expenses before the war,
and it will be found that for the four
years Immediately preceding the war,
the ordinary expens es were about $3O7,.
900 900; showing that the current ex-
penses of the government had increased
three fold under the administration of
the Republican party.

The little Chinese dodger who repre-.
sents this district in Congress says in his
published speech lately made at Ports
mouth
"The position of the Democratic party
upon the question of tariff is we'll
known. Their platforms, National and
State, for many years have declared
either for free trade or tariff for reve
nue. only"
Now, this little Chinese falsiier knew
and knows that the Democratic party
never declared for free trade, but always
for tariff for revenue. The Constilu-
ton gives Congress taxation power for
no other purpose than to raise revenue.
Has Congress any legitimate power to
levy taxes upon the people in order to
put money into the pockets of favored
few? There is no such power conferred.

The United States Government has be-
come a monster machine and is sup
ported by the labor Of the people.
There are over 100000 Office holders. A
private business firm would do the work
better with half the number. The party
in power use the Government as a po-
litical machine. The Government
handles, say $S5O,OOO,OOO yearly. This
means that each cffioe holder superin-
tends on an average $500 year of
gross receipts and expenditures, of
which not less than twenty five per
cent, is paid him for salaries. Imagine a
private frm-say for instance dry goods
house-that sells $3.50, 900 worth Of goods
year, employing one thousand men
and paying them $4,000 in salaries.

able efforts in length, went out to q

speaker had only got into the middle Of
his speech, when one of the old vet.

brought the speech to an end. The next

CONGRESSMAN Mckinley said in little
speech that he made in New York that
the Democratic party had no policy, and
asked: "Who can tell me what is the
policy of the Democratic party ?" The
Chinese dodger has evidently not read

immigration, a Democratic measure,
which bill was vetoed by Hayes and the
veto was sustained by Garfield but

Mr.. GARFIELD spoke to the "boys in

week, and having just heard from the
Alabama and Kentucky State elections
and that the negroes voted the Demo
cratic ticket, he became SO alarmed that
he lauded and praised the negroes as
faithful to the Republican cause on all
occasions, even to approving Credit
Mobilier and DeGolyer trickery. Won
der if DeGolyer supposed people would
believe his stuff. Taffy for the colored
people won't save 0akes Ames' ally, and
waving the bloody shirt alarms white
men no longer. This stuff is played out.

official position. This is the test, Mr..
