Jasper County Democrat, Volume 9, Number 25, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 22 September 1906 — REPUBLICAN TEXT BOOK. [ARTICLE]
REPUBLICAN TEXT BOOK.
Word Picture* of RepnbltranUm Edited by Roosevelt. It Is comforting to know that “the proof’ of the Republican campaign text book Is In the hands of President Roosevelt for revision and approval. We shall thus soon know where the G. O. P. and the president stand on disputed questions. We know that Speaker Cannon has induced the president to stand pat ou the tariff, but it will be more certain how strong the stand pat attitude of the president is to see it in print, revised and approved. Chairman Sherman of the Republican congressional committee, after an Interview with the president, informs a waiting public that “the book will be a stand pat document, with word pictures of the record of the Republican party and reasons why that party should be kept in power. What picturesque language may we not expect when the editor has added the word painting!' The chapter on Panama and Santo Domingo and the Philippines will be worth all the dollar. And to think that Mr. Roosevelt’S achievements—for he at present is the Republican party—edited by himself, with his Inmost thoughts laid bare and his trumpet appeal to the voters to once more stand pat for the G. O. P. and victory, can all be obtained for $1 and your name enrolled on the scroll of fame as a subscriber to Republican success! ____
