and Reasons Why No Truly Patriotic
Young Man Can Afford to Vote
for Parker and Davis.

party. First and foremost among those
many victories will forever stand that
victory for which the immortal lincoln
gave his life, the abolition Of slavery.
With She blood of patriots he washed the
stain forever from the stars and stripes.
The Republican party saved the Unien
and gave freedom to four millions Of peo-
pie. For all time the victory of the
abolition OF slavery stands to the credit
of the Republican party.
Then, thirty-seven years later, the cry
of the oppressed went up from fair Gu
ba; her people had been ground into the
dust for four centuries by Spanish greed
and oppression. Another Republican
President, another American martyr,
came to the rescue Of the Queen Of the
Antilles, ard William Mckinley freed
Cuba and started her on her illustrious
career Of destiny.
First Rate Diplomats.
Peace hath her victories no less re-
nowned than war. Scarcely a genera
ton ago a Republican Secretary OF State,
with far-seeing vision common to Repub-
lean statesmen, saw that the most de-
spotic power in the world-Russia-by
it's possession OF Alaska might some day
be a menace to our Pacific coast. Alas
ka was purchased by Secretary Of State
Seward and the Republican party; and
instead Of being a menace it now stands
as a sentinel guarding American interests
in the Northern Pacific and the Arctic
Ocean. For all time the victory of peace
fully acquiring Alaska stands to the cred
!. OF the Republican party.
N A. III - u
American people have demanded a canal
to connect the waters OF the Atlantic
with the waters Of the Pacific. The great
advantages OF such a canal are too OBJ
vious to be dwelt upon. The advantages
to the United States in time OF war
will be unreasonable. Or its feasibility
there is no question. or its early con-
struction there has been no doubt since
the recent day when the Republican par
~, at the hands of the Republican Pres
ident, gave TO our nation the American
Panama canal. For all time the victory
of the Panama canal will stand to the
credit Of the Republican party. When
we acquired the Philippines and Porto
RiSo we found schn0l piYileGes practical
ly nonresident. Only six years have
passed, and to-day over three hundred
Thousand Filipino and Porto Rican
children are receiving American educa-
ton and singing the songs of freedom in
the Anglo American language. For all
time the victory of inaugurating the pub
lie school system under which these chill
dren are being fitted for eventual Amer
lean citizenship stands to the credit OF
the Republican party.
Builds for the FIXTURE.
Another Republican Secretary Of State
saw that American trade in China was
a necessity, and, by a series Of clever
diplomatic moves. has secured for us a
commercial open door in China. For all
time the victory of the open-door policy
will stand to the credit of John Hay and
the Republican party.
When the immortal Lincoln was first
elected President we had 23,oO0 facto-
ries. with 10000 O workers. AT the
present day, under the protective tariff
OF the Republican party, we have over
eoc,ooe factories, with about S,000,VO0
workers. For all time this industrial vic
tory will stand to the credit Of the Re-
publican party.
