THE BOSSES OR THE MACHINE.
They we're secured in sDite OF
them. and they were cowardly and
Ignorantly refusing 10 oppose any
thing lest n cost tlrem an office.
they consented ignorantly ana
for want of real leadership TO their
own undoing. and after II Is done,
THEY STRUGGLE LIKE A ROPED
STEER.
Not one of the present alleged
bosses and leaders OF the Republic
can party but signed petitions ana
voted for these very reforms that
they are now seeking TO overthrow.
The names OF these leaders In con-
vontfons and In the legislature have
been published over and over As

necks OF the machine and put the
long end OF the rope In the hanos
OF the people.
