Part In Peace, Not In Anger

South Haven New Era
We regret TO see a disposition on
the part Of Republican papers and
Republican politicians to "rOast" the
men who, renCuncing the financial
plank Of the st. Louis platform, are
severing their allegiance to the old
partyand casting their fortunes in new
UNEMPLOYED political waters. Ifa man

is no light matter for such a man as
