There was a disposition, ne said, up
on the part OF the other organizations
10 belittle the Democrats 10 theory
could be more wrong than to accuse
people, because they were devoted TO

their party, which they believed 10 he
inherently great, because they We're
convinced that if its principles were
carried out the people would suffer
less from taxation ana gain q greater
prosperity than under Republican or
non-partisan rule.
