REPUBLICANISM AND TEWKSBURY-
ISM


ISM.
Just as we suggested, Republication and
Tewksburyism have become synonymous
throughout the country. Tewksburyism is
the outg-owth, the Legitimate spawn of Re
publicanism. Governor Butler, Of Massa-
chusetts, took the contract of tearing from
Massachusetts, Republicanism ell its God
and morality robes, and of exposing its
hideo1s deformlties and depravities to the
Nation" How thoroughly he has per
formed his self-imposed task, the records
tell with terrible emphasis. Pretty much all
the industries of Massachusetts, are pro-
tected, and as a result, there is vast wealth
and refinement in the old Bay State. Boston
assumes to be the Athens of America 1t is
too too to an extent that challenges rivaly.
1t is the home of the largest development
of Goldfish aristocracy on the continent,
and right under the nose of Boston is
Tewksbury. The industries of Tewksbury are
somewhat different from those of Worcester
and Lawrence. In the former place paupers
are skinned after they are dead, in the latter
they are skinned while living; both opera
tons are peculiarly Republican. In Teweks-
bury the skins of psupers are tanned. When
dead paupers are not skinned at Tewksbnry,
they are picked for the stiff trade, and
the stiff trade of Tewksbury is sustained by
Massachusetts laws passed by Republicans,
once or twice year. Massachusetts, inaugu-
rates great celebrations commemorative of
some event, such as Landing of the Pill
grims," and then we are told that Massachu-
sets hes been and continues to be the edH-
Gator and civilizer Of America; that Massa-
chusetts ideas prevail everywhere through
out the country, etc. Governor Butler
has managed to throw several buckets full of
cold water on the educational and ciVilizing
capital of Massachusetts,, and we find, by
reading the TeWksbury horrors, that Massa-
chusetts as a schoolmaster and civillzer
won't do at all. Her civilization
is worse than savagery. She edu-
Gates dowa instead of up, and
for denominations under Republican
rule, nothing IN the wide world compares
with Tewksbury. At Tewksbury Repubi
lican officials robbed paupers, young and
old, infrm and insane. Women in the
human people would treat dogs or cats, wild
beasts OF domestic animals. Horrors multi
piled as the investigation proceeded, and the
fact was brought out that the execrable bus.
mess was known five years ago, but nothing
was done to arrest the damnable
proceedings, because it was found the ex-
posure would hurt the Republican party.

went forward. Sk1nning paupers and tan
ming their skins proceeded; robbing paupers
continued aRd the stiff business hourished.
AS matter of course the Republican bosses
in Massachusetts, and elsewhere are
not in love WITH Governor Butler, and
Harvard University, which Is run by Repub.
hcans, will not confer upon Governor Butler
the title of LII. d. 1t is unpleasant for Re-
publicanism to be known as Tweksburyism,
but it is so known. The isms are welded, and
no Court in Heaven or earth can divorce
them. Indeed, they are twins. The Yweks-
bury practices can be seen everywhere
where Republican bosses have con

employees of the Government to saiss

victims would not stand to be skinned, they

great split in the Republican

Look abroad over the land, and whereYel
the Republican bosses hold sway there vii

Tewksburyisln are one and the same thing
and Governor Butler is entitled to largl
praise for the part ne has performed in per
uniting the people of Massachusetts, to SCI
whittier they are drifting under Republican
control.
