IS the recognized standard Of the world. We applaud

A PARTY ALWAYS on THE RIGHT SIDE.
have no intention of waving the bloody shirt in
politics butI cannot help recalling the recent utter
ances OF most distinguished leader in his recent
Fourth Of July speech at Owego when he said "Wlth
the broadest exercise of Christian charity let not
forget that in the contest of the past there was a
wrong side and there a right SIDE" and to add
that the Republican party has never been on the
wrong side of any political question, nor ever repre-
scented wrong to any class, race or condition Of men,
The reduced taxation Of the state is due solely to
the affirmative legislation proposed by Republicans
and passed by Republican Legislatures. Among other
things, our party framed and passed the law taxing
manufacturing and all other corporations, and the law
taxing collateral and direct nheritances; and al
though there have been Increased state expenditures
and in spite of Democratic opposition, it has created
policy which has made the present state tax rate
lower than Ii has been for thirty years and which,
Of state taxation. In all this the Democratic party
has been neither part nor lot, and yet ciams the
entire credit.
We demand such legislation in the line Of municipal
reform that there shall be but system for all
cities throughout the state with which there shall be
tinkering at the beck and behest Of political bosses
