RE- O Rf.
The utility and practical value OF the
Tildcn Clubs Canvass Book, containing
complete roll OF the TiIden and Reform
voters alphabetically arranged and mum.
bercd, in given precinct, was fully and
satisfactorily shown ut our late election.
BY the mere simple process OF checkiny
Off each voter rs his ballot was cast, our
active and efficient vigilance committee
was enabled, ut g!Ance. to ascertain
the absentecs ut any lioGr OF the day,
in order TO send FOR or bring them TO the
polls. We recommend. therefore, that
sic book. with an additional list OF
all Democratic voters found TO have been
absent at the last Election, BE at once
furnished to each precinct, by the Tillen
Club Of the Mayisterial district, or II
none therein exist,b this Romney Club,
and the use OF 81 "a n checl; book, i'm con.
ncction with the services of Young.
active, efficient Vigilance Committee OF
Ten or Twenty members is earnestly ad.
vised. BY this means. the full strength
OF our voters may be had at the Presi-
dental Election. In the meantime, we
recommend TO our Executive Committee
to secure tho services of able and eff.
cient speakers to address the voters,
wherever il is deemed advisable. to dis.
scmnatc documents and to impress up
on the people the importance OF the
coming election for President and Re.
preventative in Congress-
And TO every member OF this and
any other Tilden Club in Hampshire
County, we recommend. that he consti.
tutc him n committee or one to promote
the cause, by persuasion and argument
addressed 10 his ncighbors and friends
and especially to represent The impor-
tant fact that Hampshire can and Ought
TO give round Fifteen Hundred majo-
rity for Tilden, and to retain Ker proud
position rs Tho Banner County or West
