Very Good. <br /> <br /> Unlike its northern rival the breakaway Liberal Republicans led by Horace Greeley the Republican Party will not overlook the continuing "violence of the stronger race over the feebler race" in order to achieve harmony and reconciliation.

Democrats justified slavery before the War; after the War they continue to champion State Rights and oppression of the Negro race. Republicans comprise the Party of principle: re-elect Grant. <br /> 484 NUC 0099291 1- DLC. unknown

1880197421880. Caption title as issued. 8pp with light wear and old folds. 'No. 86.' printed at top of first page. Good. A Republican campaign pamphlet arguing that the triumph of the 'Solid South' would impoverish the country. Southerners have "the conceit of political sagacity. It is their boast that this country will never be properly governed until Southern statesmanship shall again bear sway." But when the numbers are crunched the South has lagged behind the North in every index of economic prosperity. The Solid South's share of the "commercial industrial financial and educational interests of the country" is disproportionately small. Its pretensions to "dictate the course of the National Government" is absurd. OCLC locates 12 under two accession numbers. unknown
