score marvellous victory this

platform, and a clean cut state
platform. We all knsw where to

some thing. They mean lower
taxes-theY msaa cheaper tools,
cheaper clothing, and cheaper fool
they meal equal privileges to all
classes, and net favored privileges
to u few they mean that labJring
men are not to be ground down by
taxation m order that the wealthy
factories may grow rilher-they
mean defeat TO republican policies.
Our platforms declare for principles
that are bouud to via We nust
proclaim them. We must enter
