What has the Republican party
done and what is it doing TO merit
the confidence and continued sup
mort OF the American people?
The party has long and brilliant
history OF glorious achievements eX-
tending over period of half cen
fury. 1t has not only been faithful
10 every trust reposed in it, it has
not only proved equal to all osca-
sions requiring able craftsmanship
and wise administrative ability, Y
has not only povcd the truth and
righteousness OF the immortal prin-
cinle upon which IT was founded. =
has not only held firmly to the
highest ideals of moral as wen as
political advancement. but it has
also kept pace with the progress ana
development OF the country and 1t as
at the present time doing all that II
,ossfbIy can in the interests of the
neople at large in keeping with their
moral and political welfare TO the
end that this, in the words of tne
INDUSTRIOUS Lincoln, may he coun'
try .'of the people. by the people
and for the people" 1t is the true
party OF progress and its record
proves it.
During all this long period OF
progress and prosperity and eXpan-
sion OF more than fifty years, the
Democratic party has been hut once
entrusted with the full control of the
national administration. Its the
cries then proved to he fallariouS
The very menace OF free trade de-
moralized the business and destroyed
the industrial interests of the
country from coast to coast. Disas-
ter. dispair and decay were written
all over the face of this fair land.
The people saw their mistake and
turned the Democrats out Since
then the country has enjoyed a
period of substantial prosperity SUCH

history OF the civilized world,

was played by Harry Pratt, a teacher
Of Manual training at Good viii. Rev.
George w. Hinckley performed the
ceremony, the double ring service be-
ing used.

in Dorchester Center for several
years and has been employed by the

ciated Bank officers of Boston. Miss
