Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Brief History of the Republican Party: From Its Organization to the Presidential Campaign of 1884 Xthe purpose of tais work is to describe very briefly the origin, rise, and growth of the Republican Party, its great achieve ments in moulding public opinion, and its important work of administration and legislation. Since the party was formed, a new generation of Voters has come upon the stage of political action, to Whom its early history is little more than a tradition. A brief résumé of that history m_ust be interesting and. Instruo tive to these young Republicans Who have taken up the work of the party and are to carry it on after all its founders have passed. Away, and its older members can hardly fail to find some pleasure and prefit ln reviewing the story of its organization and Victories. N 0 party ever had such a record. It has freed feur millions of slaves; it has suppressed the most formidable rebellion the W0111d ever saw; it has preserved and strengthened the credit of the nation; it has conferred equal rights of suf 'frage and citizenship upon all the inhabitants of this Republic, and it has administered the Government for twenty - four years With signal fidelity, honor, and intelligence. Within the com pass of a work so limited as this, it is not possible to gein'to many interesting details concerning the career of this great historidparty. Very little can be said about its action in State campaigns and its position upon State 1ssues. Its history as a national organ 1zat10n alone 1s dealt with m the following pages, and that, too, in as condensed a form as is consistent With the presentation of all immrtant facts.
