So far as anybody deprived Of Hub
bell S pamphlets can discover, the outfit
of the Re publican party consists in the
party machine and the party name II
Mr.. ,.Blaine,s latest deiXeranee, is yac7
cepted as, .official77,and Mr.. Blaine. at
Eleast, is clear that, when he is uttering
himself the oracle. is on tapAthe Repub-
licani party appeals for support to the
things it did a long while ago, and the
men, now4dead.Y who used to belong to
it. We haze heard of ..potato fa1l1i-

and we receive threnody. Of what the
Republican party is, doing and OF what
it means to do we hear nothing from Re-
publican orators OF Republican organs.

dering the public money, and it means

things do not look as well in a platform
as q demands by the thieves and
squanderers for rigid economy in the
expenditure of public funds. When

ton which renominated him made this
demand and trusts to the efficiency Of
the party machine and the, attractive
force of the party name, besides. what
there may be of direct bribery, to Sc
cure his reelection = We have by no
means got so low that direct bribery
can do anything considerable towards
affecting the popular verdict, when AN
issue is made upon which public senti-

the issue which is presented by the acts
of the Republican party is an issue
