consideration should you continue
Sin the disposition to emigrate to
''this country"
: This proves that Thomas Jefferson
believed in the doctrine and principles
of the Republican party of today.
Andrew Jackson was also a protec-
zionist. We take a short extract from
a letter which he wrote to DR.. Cole
