"A Good Republican Gun.

One of the best Republican guns for this
1892 campaign, or any other campaign, is E. V.
smalleys History of the Republican Party"
1t is much more than a mere campaign book, in
fact is most valuable history, for every citizen of
every party. 1t deals with the history of parties
from the foundation of the government down to
the present year giving brief sketches of the most
noted leaders, every Republican platform from the
first to the last and vast fund of valuable infor-
nation. 1t appeals especially to the thinking
voter" every one of whom ought to read it. OF
course no worker in the campaign is equipped
without copy of it, more than carpenter would
be without his saw, hunter without his gun.
Mr.. Smalley is writer of rare ability a long time
intimate friend of Garfield, Blaine and other
leaders, staff correspondent Of the New York
Tribune, ETC., and thus richly fitted for writing
such work. Another good thing about the book
is that it is issued by the famous publisher of
cheap books, John B. Alden, 81 Rose St., New
York, and therefore to be had at low price, only
56 cents, post paid. His catalogue, over 100
pages, of choice books 10 be had for cents ought
to be in the hands of every lover of good books.
