The title pairs a party's written platform with the people chosen to run under it, a combination that reflects how Republican national conventions have worked. Each convention adopts a platform stating the party's positions and nominates a presidential candidate, so the two were meant to be read together as one message to voters. The Republican Party was founded in 1854, and its first presidential nominee, John C. Frémont, ran in 1856. The image is worth studying for how it presents the party's program and its leaders as a single campaign.
