Differences OF Parties.

Beyond all platform decIar,,io,.
there are fundamental differences he
tween the Republican party and it's
chief opponent which make the one
worthy and tho other unworthy Of pub-
lie trust
IN history the difference between
democracy and Republicanism Is that
the one stood for debased currency
the other for honest currency: the one
Tor free silver. the other for sound
money; the one for free trade. tho Other
Tor protection. the ono for the contrac-
tlon OF American influence. tho other
for its expansion. the ono has been
forced to abandon every position
taken on the great issues before the
people. the other has held and vindt-
Gated all
Adversely Against Prosperity.
In experience the difference between
Democracy and Republicanism Is that
