DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Thaddeus Stevens Commoner It has been remarked that republics are ungrateful to their servants. The people forget the great services rendered by those who have put self out of sight in their desire to serve others. Especially true is this in an age like the present - so full of political curiosity and so wanting in political talent. With the desire of calling attention to the inestimable value to the nation of the life of that great public servant, Thaddeus Stevens, and the importance of his stalwart policy in securing the results of the war, the author has written. The unthinking endeavor to east a stigma on the word stalwart by associating it with the spoils system. But it means more than that. The word stands for that bold, courageous, and loyal policy which will be the lasting glory of the Republican party.
