coming campaign must be fought
on present issues not the issues of
the past. But it still prints such
as the following: Geti. Sherman
says that every man who was faith
ful to the country during the great

conducted on the issue of the pre
sent is an impossibility for the Re
publicans.

the monopoly machine to represent
its worst developments ; without the
winning personnl qualities that

presentatives of failing causes; a
negative candidate on a negative
platform; the figurehead of a re
actionary movement against equal
rights and the just protection of

years ago, comparatively unknown,

over the most brilliant politician of
the Republican party. That four
years’ trial insures an overwhelm
ing vote of confidence for four years
more.
