THE REPUBLICAN PROGRAMME.

General Grosvenor, of Ohio, who~of-
fensively declared in the House that
'.this is Republican war;" in his speech
as temporary chairman of the Ohio State
Convention, outlined the programme of
his party when he declared that ali
the Democrats in Congress except four
teen voted against the measures raising
revenue to conduct the war.
This is the Republican campaign pro-
gramme. 1t is not their purpose to tell
the people that Democrats and Popu-
lists and Silver Republicans in Con-
gress voted in favor of raising the mon
ey to carry on this war from exactly
the same sources that were drawn on
by the Federal government TO fight the
Civil War. In that war it was not
deemed unpatriotic to issue greenbacks
and levy tax upon wealth to pay part of
the expenses incident TO war. The Repub-
lican party then was not bound hand
and foot to the money kings. Abraham
Lincoln Wnd not Mark Hanna was then
the ide4 Republican.
WhenNthe people know the truth, they
will applaud the opponents of the Re
publican party for insisting that early
expenditures made necessary by the war
should be met by coming the seigniorage
in the Treasury, which Mr.. Cleveland
said was clearly ascertainable;" by a
tax on large corporations until an in
come fax could be levied; by tax on
Injuries: and by small issue of green
backs. These were the proper subjects
for taxation, and if the bond grslbbers
had not controlled the admins
tration. the expenses for the first
year of the present war would have been
obtained from money derived from these
sources. AS the bond grabbers were in
the saddle, the war revenue bill puts
bonds first, taxes second, and in levy
ing taxes imposes the burdens chiefly
upon the poorer members of society.
If the Republicans desire to follow
Grosyenor, the issue will be Welcomes.
If the Democratic position is wrong, the
issue of greenbacks and the imposition
of an income tax by the Lincoln admin
istration was wrong. There is not
a member of Congress of any party
who will refuse to vote all the money
necessary to prosecute the war and
to issue bonds when they are needed,
but they win never condone the crime
of issuing half billion dollars of bonds
TO be paid by the consumers when the
wealth of the country is hardly touched

Down in the darkened dead room,
Famed by the balmy air,
With his bruised face turned Heaven
ward
Lay one so young and fair.
He'd been fighting for sweet humanity,
That man might be treated as man;
He thought op the poor tortured Cuhans
Who live in that slayish land.
He went to his fate as fearless,
As was always his wont to do;
He faced the treacherOus enemy,
Who crippled the fated Winslow.
Shot after shot whizzed about him,
But he stood as firm as the Rock
That was snatched from the Spanish
possession,
And gave cruel Spain such a shock.
Brave Hero, rest then in peace,
While our country is winning fame;
For when the brave heroes are summed
up,
At the topmost should be Bagley's name.
o, God let thy guardian Angel
Watch constantly over his soul!
May Heaven resound with glad tidings
Welcome Worth Bagley, so bold"

WHY Is LEE LEFT BEHIND?

General Fitzhugh I1e's appointment
was made in response to an oyerwhelm-
ing popular demand that he lead the
fight in Cuba. This popular demand
arose from his conduct in Havana and
his knowledge Of conditions in Cuba.
The first army of invasion is sent to Gu
ba and General Lee does not go with it.
It is now intimated that he will go to
Porto Rico. If he is not to go to Cubh
the special reason that caused the de
mand for his appointment is ignored.
He ought to be in the front in the at
tack because he has had peculiar adj
vantages to learn the strength and meth
DDS of Cuba and Cubans.
Why is he left behind?
