ALL Pc OP LE

To read and keep posted during
this exciting and vital campaign
is worthy the attention of all
prominent Democrats in our State
and adjoining counties of neigh
boring States.
There are dozens of voters in
every precinct, who, from inabil-
itv or otherwise, do not get a
chance to read the papers, and do
not know many of the important
issues of the day. The oppOrtu-
nitv here offered by the prOpri-
otors of the REGISTER is liberal
and what was needed to place the
REGISTER in the hands of all
friends.
The REGISTER is a large Sc
column Journal, and N addition
to containing all the political
news is one Of the best family and
market papers published in the
State.
