TOWNSHIP COMMITTEES,
70 The Democracy Of Lepis County:
Your Executive Committee, anxious to
secure to our time.honorcL purity the glory
Of another victory over radical oppression
and infamy, make this, their call upon
you, us men, as citizens, and as Demo-
Gratis, to arm and prepare for the coming
fight. Already have the enemies Of our
race and ofihc true system Of government
commenced their Vaccinations to carry
this as we'll rs other counties ut the ensuing
election. They are determined, by, all
tho means in their powcr-no muttcr how
corrupt or dishonorahIc-to retain posses.
sion Of the legislation of the States; and
continue their reign Of infamous oppres-.
sion IND tyranny. Already have they
given to the black man the right u sutf:
rage-whilc the disfranchised white man
| Is sill to remain as an alien or fclon.
They have pointeily refused to allow tho
people to elect the officers ofrcgistratipn,
well knowing that such a course would
speedily bring to an end the curse which
is now driving thousands Of cur best citi-
zcns fron the State. BY repeating afew
comparatively unimportant test. outl,s,
they intend to 60 before the people again
and they will doubtless speak loudly u
their magnunin,ity-magnani,nity in al
lowing lawyers and teachers to earn their
daily bread BY the practice oftheir pro-
fession ; and generosity in permitting q
rebel to collect the debts honestly due
him. While tho "lct up" movement is
a movement in tie right direction, and
by the masses ofthe radical party will be
honestly carried out, yet experience with
jiac recent "new departure" has taught US
THAT Il We would succeed VIC must put
none but Democrats on guard-mcn who
have been tried and we're not found want
ling. We must make no concessions to
the enemy. Ours is q fight Of Right
against Wrong. and by making any COM
promise, We ourselves become pdniccps
iuinliinis. To form better organization,
and BY that means to promote our chances
for an overwhelming victory, We have ap-
POINTED the following Township Executive
Committees. We expect, and the De-
mocracy Of the county expects them 10
iWORK-work surely and steadily from
to-day until the victory is won. TO aid
still further, we would suggest and earn
csily urge upon these Committees tho
propricty Of ioNiag meetings Immediately
and appointing an Executive Committee
Of three for every School District in their
respective Townships. Lett DO tho duty
Of these Committees to SEQ that every man
who can register il brought outlet them
work iaiilii !ly during the canyass-let
thcl sesto il that every voter is at tho
polls on election day-and when VIC have
forever crushed the monstcr-ladicalisn,
lin our county. lot us rejoice together
over the fruits Of the victory. Tho fol-
lowing are the Township Committees:
