The republican party lacks an in
huential and widely-read press, and
young men and the sons and founders
of republicanism are either acting with
the democratic party or at least they are
not actively supporting the republican
party. This is both a warning and
an indictment. A party which lacks an
influential press and young, progressive
men has a fatal cause of dissolution and
is threatened with quick destruction
