Democrats, to the Rescue.


In little more than two weeks the people
of this State will speak at the ballot box. Our
its results of any we have had for years. No
true democrat can fail TO see that important
consequences are at risk, consequences no less
important than jeopardy of the great interests
of the democratic party i'll Maine, through the
traitorous designs of disorganizers, and con-
sequent hazard of the now prospective brilliant
success in our national election. The truth
cannot be denied, that band of men in the
democratic party are ripe for revolt-that they
are ready 10 sacrifice our organization and our
principles to accomplish private and personal
and contemplate ends. In that band may be
found old and new traitors, rush-light demo-
Gratis, supporters of Gen. Taylor in 1913, dis
appointed and inscriptions office seekers, and
men of variety of shades, who, when they
had decent standing in the party, were forev-
err whining and fault-fnding, and threatening
to go over to the enemy That was the source

sooner thew get back to their origin, the better.
In the approaching election, these men will
have an organization and defnation-they
will stand out prominently under traitors col
ors Let them have TRAITORS DOOM. In
the language Of one of the resolutions recently
passed at county convention, we say, ''that
if the democratic party of Maine means to PIE
serre its orgdniodtion-if it desires to perPetu-
ate its e1istence-if it does not wish 10 become
an object Of deriSion to its enemies and ofconl-
s1iserati0n to us friends weak, imbecile, and
wholly impotcnt for the accomplishment Of any
of the great purposes Of lis being-rent with
internal discussions, prey 10 the malice or
caprice of latUiess disorgani2iag nautinOus md
riduals assuming to act in its name-it must
resoluiely, and without fear, rindicate its du-
Mority, by some appropriate action, against all
reasonable assaults upon lis supremacy, whcr-
erer, ,ohereCcr and by whOnsOeUei mGde.''
Every true democrat should understand that
the time to vindicate the authority of the party
against treason, the time 10 mark the TRIAL
TORS, will be at the polls; and the measure
Intimidation will be the reelection of JOHN
HUBBARD.
The present is emphatically 10 the party a
time for RESCUE. Its dearest interests are at
stake, and unless rescued now, ruin and dis
grace will be inevitable. Let every democrat
fairly and fully understand this.
The extent of the detection in our ranks is
not so great as many suppose. No doubt
many good democrats are dissatisfied with some
of the measures of the party, and no doubt
sumo of those measures have been wrong in
inception and execution but such democrats
are not of the come-outer stamp, and they will
sacrifice their private preferences as well as
dislikes in the hour of emergency, by manfully
doing THEIR DUTY and going in, heart and
soul, for the REGULAR NOMINATIONS. Such
men are democrats in action as well as name
When the traitorous band that now seek IL
break down and ruin, come to the polls, theii
numbers will grow beautifully and wonderful

DEMOCRATS OF MAINE. JOHN HUB
