Abstract

The Revenue Reformers and the Republican Party
May 5, 1870 issue

add to cart   close window

"The New York Times" seems to have discovered in the meeting of revenue reformers, recently held in Washington, evidence of greater indifference on the part of the persons present to the claims of the U.S. Republican party to popular confidence and support. If the Republican party can be made the instrument of the needed legislation, well and good, if not, why it must go to pieces. The Republican party, like all other parties, is a means, not an end. That some change was necessary, the meeting had abundant proof in the debates on the tariff going on in the Capitol while it was sitting.
