Speech by Vice-President Colfax on Republican economy and reform
Colfax delivers an exhaustive critique of Democratic governance, contrasting Buchanan’s administration with Grant’s, arguing for retrenchment, reduced taxes, and debt repayment. He cites rising deficits, debt growth, and wartime expenditures under Democrats, praising Grant’s fiscal reforms, tariff and internal revenue gains, and efforts to shrink government waste while championing liberty and national unity.
