1t is for these gaudy, gorgeously
noble and self-abegating sxioms Of a
higher.light sort of incomprehensible
political philosophy that the Pennsyl-
vania patriots maintain their interest IN
national affairs. They neglect their own
local business to attend to the business
OF the country They care naught for
protective tariffs on their own goods, for
subsidies to their ships, and for pensions
to their voters. They seek the good Of
the country. They have no time for
local affairs.
Now, it strikes q disloyal man, a man
of common sense, and heather, that
there are some local matters TO which
the Republican party in Pennsylvania
should give their earnest and prayer
full attention. but, which, by some over
sight were not mentioned in their plat

in the local platform Of great state
which is as badly In need of local reform
as Pennsylvania, and from a party

All Of this goes to show, however, that
the Republican party is dead at the top,
and rotten throughout its trunk.
