field county, the County Committee
have selected aud appointed the iol-
lowing named gentlemen 20 act as a
Committees of Vigilance, for the re-
spcctive boroughs and townships, the
ensuing year. Until last year the
committee consisted Of but three per-
sons. and it has often been demon
strated that through causes lmpossl-
bic to control, majority OF this mum
her could not always be present, to
discharge the duties enJoined upon
them. Thus the duty of holding the
Primary Election frequently, devolved
upon those not designated. The Coun-
~ Committee deemingit no violation
Of our rules, have enlarged the commit
tee selecting sepcn persons in the large
districts, and fUe in the small. They
would suggest the propriety OF these
committees holding a meeting lew
days previous TO the day of the cleo
ton, and selecting and designating
three of the irnumber 10 attend and
hold said election and at the same time
appoint the return judge, so that eaef
NAV understand his duty, when th'
time of action arrives. 1t is hoped
that nil will take lively interest IL

and organization Of the only party
that has, and will. govern this coun
try according to the Constitution, ant

Many complaints have been LODGED
with the County Committee, witt
reference TO the frequent violation
ofthe first clause of Rule 9th, in allow
ing Others than Democrats TO vote
This rule is plain, and should be cas-
ly understood by all. None but Dem
ocrats have the right to vote at ou
Primary Election, and il is the dut.

refuse the ballot of persons Offering I
vote who act and vote at other cleo
tions with the opposition party; ur
less they pledge their sacred honor
that they intend TO act with us in th
future, and sustain the nominees 9
our party.
Should the election officers in an
of the district, knowingly and NAL
oiously allow members of the oppos
tion to vote at the Primary Election
the County Committee suggest thi
remedy : Let three, or more, know
Democrats sign protest setting fort
the fact, give the names Of the me

Chairman OF the County Committee
who will lay the same before th
