The Hudson True Republican re-
marks that the "open door" policy
that the Republican party talked so
much of during the campaign has
turned out to apply much more to the
public treasury than the business OF
the country. The billion dollar con-
grcss has been exceeded by one half,
and all iobbcrs have come to the front
with doubled rapacity.
