Governments Are Necessarily Continuing Concerns. They Have To Keep Going In Good Times And In Bad. They Therefore Need A Wide Margin Of Safety. If Taxes And Debt Are Made All The People Can Bear When Times Are Good, There Will Be Certain Disaster When Times Are Bad.

The Suggestion Of Denying Any Measure Of Their Full Political Rights To Such A Great Group Of Our Population As The Colored People Is One Which, However It Might Be Received In Some Other Quarters, Could Not Possibly Be Permitted By One Who Feels A Responsibility For Living Up To The Traditions And Maintaining The Principles Of The Republican Party.
