republicanism naturally leads them.
And we must not shirk from our duty,

Was there ever Legislature SO

state?
lahore the Plain People.
Looking only for personal prestige
and pecuniary gain, fighting between
themselves for pelf and position, the
republicans have ignored and forgotten
the plain people, whose interests they
promised to promote, but whose trust
they ANONYMOUSLY betrayed.

IF he proclaims the justice of reel
procity on one hand, he is careful to
safeguard the interests of the sugar
trust on the other. If he plays to the
galleries as a civil service reformer,
he is sure to tender positions of po-
litical preferment to the most notorious
corruptionists in his party.

their dignity and their records and re-

has yet much to do to deserve their
respect.
He has essayed to interfere in the
