This article focuses on the progress of Republican party. National Republican chairman, Henry P. Fletcher, who has announced with pontifical gravity that, "contradictory as it may sound," the Republican Party is progressive because it has been conservative." Undoubtedly the hearts of millions of bankers and business men leaped with joy when they read this new definition of what constitutes progress. It is a slogan which, venture to assert, will carry far. Those are surely the truest patriots who stand still, who resist change, who oppose every new idea and suggestion of something different.
