those of you who are just starting out
upon life's pathway, and will in this
contest cast your first vote. Those or
you who are ambitious, and believe in
the future prosperity of the country,
anxious that it shall continue on its
bright and brilliant course, do not by
any act of yours cast a gloom over the
halo and brightness that now exists,
but heed the warning of one of
Americas martyred patriots; James II
Garfield, when he said, Don't trust
the Democratic party. Their principles

progress and enterprise of modern
times, but rather issues that are dead

time an Irishman saw the steam shovel

jabers, but [ will be hanged if you can
vote That was his position, but not
the condition of the Republican party,
which stands for equal rights for all,
and special privileges for none.
Rally around the standard of Re
publicanism. 1t represents liberty and
progress, the good of the past and the
hope of the future, for whenever free
dom is assailed, wherever human
wrongs are to be righted, wherever all
that is grand, good and enobling in
our lives is to be protected, there will
stand shoulder to shoulder with front
unbroken, the grand and noble men
