REPUBLICANs of Wapello county,
with each issue of our Weekly we
desire to make an appeal to you to be
up and doing. One half dozen, or
even less, active, earnest working re-
publicans in each township of this
county, except Center, which is very
populous) can organize and put in
operation the necessary work to arouse
the entire republican force of their
respective townships. There needs
to be and must be a head, nucleus,
for the proper and successful prosecu-
ton ofany public movement. "What
is everybody's business is nobody's,
you know, and we hope that this
week will not slip away without an
organization in each township. We
want to urge upon republicans, too,
the necessity of attending public
speaking. 1t may be and doubtless
| Is, that it is not always convenient to
do SO; it may be that with many who
have always been steadfast republic
ans, it will not make them more GER
tain to vote the ticket; indeed it may
be they will learn nothing new from
the speaker on some occasions-but
one thing is certain, their presence
will swell the crowd, and their exam
pie will lead others to attend and, il
they do their duty theywill not only
teach by example, but they will try and
persuade their neighbors to accom-
pany them to the meetings. We ex-
pect that republicans will turn out
to the number at leastof one thousand
to hear Gov. Kirkwood at Agency
City, at 2 O'Clock, next Saturday.
Agency City republicans will prepare
for that number and more. We want
o say to everybody that they are
most cordially invited to hear the old
War Governor, and if they are not to
q man edited and instructed, then
they will feel different from those we
have heard express themselves as to
his speeches this campaign. He is
this fall fully up to his palmiest days
