THE WORK OF THE WORLD

he w URN Of w ORLD.
LET the dead past bury its dead" Out of
the battle and partial defeat of 1868, the un-
broken columns OF the constitutional and pa
triotic Democracy of America march forward
TO new conflicts and final victory. How are the
conflicts before Us most vigorously to be fought3
How is the victory which awaits most com
pletely and promptly to be won? These are the
practical questions of the hour. And TO these
questions TIE World makes answer now. Or
ganization is the secret to Vigor in the battle
field; organization is the means, as the right
eousness of our great cause Is the pledge OF vic
tory What Radicaism has done, and by doing
has WOE its deadly victories, Democracy must
do if Democracy is to triumph to the saving of
the state.
Not day passes which does not bring us, in
enforcement of this point, such letters as the
following S MT 10 US by an earnest and resOlute
Pennsylvania Democrat:
"Fo THE EDITOR OF THE W oRLD: During the
late campaign the Democracy of this vicinity
N ,de thorough fight. using as their campaign
paper The World. You may recollect that | ,
last winter, raised in this and neighburing towns
IA club of about go subscribers to The Weekly
World. OF this number many were Republi-
cans early every one OF them voted the
democratic ticket at bOIh elections this fall.
We propose to continue the fight and advance
our banners. To do this wish to raise a
still larger Club. | think The World made
6ere alb ,ut thirty Democratic votes We think
we can uOuOle our converts next year. anu we
mean to circulate here more Worlds than Tri-
bunes."
Here we have the tue spirit of the battle
and the sound assurance of victory! The work
to be done by the Democracy is to make con
verts, and this is the work OF the World. The
more widely the Radicals circulate their pa
pers, the better it will be for the Democracy,
if the Democracy, like our PENNSYLVANIA friend,
meet those papers at every point with The
World. We do not shrink trom-we invite,
we entrelt-the fullest discussions of the great
questions before the country. The Republic
is to be saved in this way. and in this way on
ly. The thirty men whom The World last
year found Radicals in Canton, al d whom it
this year brought up Democrats to the polls,
are but types of the work which The World
has been doing in Pennsylvania as well in
New York, in Indiana as well as in New Jer-
sey. To push this good work is the first
duty, because it is the most solid hope of every
good Democrat within the Union. Nor is an
hour to be lost in doing it. The redemption
of 1872 must be achieved uow, and to morrow,
and the next day and every day, until the
ton is once more rallied to its ancient stand
ards of liberty protected by law. Converts
are not to be made in an hour or in day

Keep circulating it. Whenever the Radicals
have gone before you, there follow them up
Whenever the bane is found, there press the
antidote. Do more. Go further. Be aggres
sive in attack as well as reso!ute in defence
THe World. promise you. will give you
weapons. The World means battle, because
the World means Victory. What we ask of
you is Org Organ zitionl Organiza

will do it's work.
