effort and popular education to bear the
burden of daily party work in the four
years to come.
In this new day of complete Democratic
aScendency in the nation and the restOTa-
ton OF sectional rule in the government,
with the committees of the United States
Senate being organized in the interest of
section composing one-fourth of the
states of the Union, in which states Re
publican voters are boldly and success
fully disfranchised because they are Re
! publicans. And when the cabinet of the
new president is made up mainly in the
interests of the great corporations of the
land there is but added reason
for increasing the ardor and ac-
tivity on the part of every true friend
OF human rights, free labor and
self-respecring Americans. The struggle
did not end in 1892. AS Abraham Lincoln
in the hour of previous Republican de-
feat so faithfully said, all Republicans
may say with fidelity now: "The fight
must 60 on, the cause of human liberty
must not be surrendered at the end of one
or even one hundred defeats.' 1t must go
on until the weak and helpless of all
classes and conditions are protected under
the laws, and until the day shall come de-
manded by General Grant. "When the
rights OF a Repu blican shall be as fully
admitted and fully protected at every vot-
ing place in the land as the rights of a
Democratic
To this end the national committee of
he National Republican league cordially
invites all citizens who believe in honest
elections and the right OF every American
voter to cast one vote and have it fairly
counted; who believe in the dignity of
free labor and the faithful maintenance of
the difference between American and Eu-
ropean wages; who believe in the old
A r.,
can industry and to American workmen,
and in the new American policy of reci-
procity; who believe in the fullest pro-
lection of all classes of invested interests,
and yet who are opposed to corporation
rule In the government of either
nation or state; who believe in sound
money and honest gold and silver as
money as pledged in the national
Republican platform at Minneapolis;
who believe in such improvements and
extensions of the banking systems of the
country as will bring banking facilities
nearer to the people of smaller towns and
communities; who believe in practical
civil service reform such as will separate
the spoils idea from politics and yet pre-
serve the people in control of public
offices and all public affairs, and who be-
lieve in liberal politics and yet in the as
sertion OF American ideas in all American
affairs.
All such people and all who are in SYM
pathy with the other policies and aspera-
tions OF the Republican party of the future
are invited to unite at once in membership
with the league clubs in their
own neighborhoods and partjei-
pate in the election of delegates
to the national convention at Louisville
The Republican party being non-sec-
tional and instinctively American in all
the better meanings OF the terms, chooses
to open new contest with this conyen-
ton held on southern ground, especially
states and hoping to make historical this
Republican meeting in a state which is
sacred with the traditions of Henry Clay,
Abraham Lincoln and James G. Blaine.
