Cannonism and

they would trade principle for jobs
All OF the people ought to know by this time that there
is difference in meaning between the names republican
and democrat Republican rule in Philadelphia and demo-
cratic rule in New York city spell the kind of graft;
and the same kind of misrepresentation government And
republican policies under Roosevelt and republican poll

What is republican?
Roosevelt says he's one. But Aldrch and Cannon also
claim to be republicans Here's instance where things
not equal to each other.
What's democrat?
Ii Bryan Harmon Taggart Guffey and Murphy are
democrats, then democrat stretches all the way from
Bryan to Murphy And they far apart as Roosevelt
and Cannon.

sextreme radicalsm to boneheaded conservatism; and
neither stands out boldly for anything definite but Jobs
And the bosses of both party organizations and most of

place until they off being democrats and republicans
and become free And they ought to learn from prv

Privilege is Independent of partyism By controlling
both party organizations privilege wins matter which
party loses.
But there always the chance that some day the honest
voters of this country will open their tear off their
