Some Republican newspapers
and leaders point to the contest for

that the corporation lobby is using
disrcputable methods to prevent
the people from obtaining relief,
yet while all the time insisting that
their party is the peoples party
they expect the people to forget
that railroad regulation failed at
the last session of congress because
of the Republican scnatc's subser-
vlency to corporate interests; and
they hope that the people will over.
look the facts that if railroad rcgu-
latlon fails at the coming session
the failure will be because the Re-
publican senate is welded to its
corporation idols and that the peo.
pie have nothing TO expect at the
hands of that Republican body.
Boosting that the Republican
party may be depended upon to
provide business administration
of public affairs. these Republican
editors expect the people to over
look the gross extravaganza, the
private snaps. the embezzlements
and the frauds generally that haye
been committed under Republican
administrations. They expect the
people to forget the deficit for the
last fiscal year and to overlook the
prospective deficit for the current

SOME ESTABLISHED FACTS
Which Republicans Would Like to For
pet, but Which Democrats Should
Remember.

Ii we accept the theory OF some
of om Republican friends, the po-
Iilical party to which they belong
can do no wrong. According to
their theory That party is not to be
held responsible for the sins of
commission on of omission in its
name and undcr its authority.
1t was in the name and for the
use and benefit Of the Republican
party that "a hurry up CALI was
made, during the closing hours Of
the campaiu Of 1896, for Doodle
fund Of -, coo, 900. That call was
responded 10. The men who gave
it posed as defenders OF national
honor" but as we have learned IN
the recent exposures before the
New York insurance committee,
they had small concern for their
own honor when they took other
peoples money for the enrichment
of the Republican campaign Iund.
The men whose frauds have
recently been exposed were, during
the campaign of 1896, referred to
