FRIDAY, JULY a7, 1906.
THE LINCOLN PARTY.

No citizen whatever his party affiliations may
be, who sincerely believes the time has come to
crush Braytonism and destroy its mischievous
domination in Rhode Island will see anything but
an inspiring augury in the action taken by the
campaign committee in adopting Lincoln Party"
as the name for the independent forces that have
united in support of the candidacy of Colonel God
dard for the United States senate.
The name is tribute to the memory of one
of the greatest of the republics presidents, and it
stands for all that is honest upright and fearless in
American politics Under banner upon which it
Is inscribed all good citizens may rally for the
political regeneration of the state without sac
ricing an iota of the political faith to which they
give adherence.
The present campaign is not of parties
any more than it is one Of men. 1t is a campaign
of the decent citizenship against Braytonism and
Its corrupt and corrupting methods and practices
1t is campaign of decent and loyal men against
machine that has suppressed representative govern
ment and usurped its functions; that has set up
malign political oligarchy and through its scanda-
lous misuse of stolen power brought shame and
disgrace upon the commonwealth
Lincolns name ought to be an inspiration TO
all who love the state and who ready to rescue
it from the deporable condition into which it has

coin stood for equality and justice. What more
appropriate than that his name should be inscribed
on the standard of party that is battling against
entrenched corruption and for equal rights for all
the citizens of the state?
The selection of this party designation will
have practical advantages that must prove OF the
greatest benefit in promoting the movement for
reform. 1t will doubt lead to the nomination
of reform assembly tickets in towns in which for
years Braytonism has had little or opposition.
In these towns there exists unquestonably
strong feeling of shame at their continued subservi
ence TO the machine and desire to throw off the
ignoble and Calling yoke OF Braytonism. The Lin
coin party will give hope and encouragement to
the decent and patriotic citizens of such towns 1t
will afford them opportunity of showing that
they are free and not the purchased puppets of
unscrupulous Braytonism.
The name OF Lincoln stands for all that is
nobest and best in American politics; Braytonism
for all that is base and ignoble 1t is fitting, there
fore, that in this fight for honest representative
government, for political decency and righteous
and for equal rights for all citizens, the Lin
coin party should be the staunch ally of a loyal
and militant Democracy which for decades has
battled valianty against Braytonsm and its in
iquities.
