Down with all banks of Issue. The tariff question likewise seems to be dead. All inventions should be so utilized as to benefit humanity. No bosses need apply for admission to the People’s party. The Democratic party seems to knew that it is dead this time. The only reason left for being a Democrat is because “Daddy was.” Patriotic Under Difficulties. You should be patriotic!
