The "Packard of its day" was... Packard. What little information there is of Republic reveals that it may have been as good as the Packard four-cylinder (in regards to power), but by 1912, Packard already had a six. Republic was only built in Hamilton for roughly one year (1911-1912), then moved to Tarrytown, N.Y., powered by a T-head four-cylinder with horsepower rated at 35/40.

I believe there are trucks out there with the Republic moniker, but I don't know if there is any relationship.
