business, We once more urge our propl"

the 4th Of November. -.
The Republican pnrty III this State
has a registered majority OF votes, and
and 1T is, apparent that that vote is being
drilled and marsiallcd for the occasion.
In our immediate section the whole
power OF. that vote may not be cast.
But FwhercHer that majority is heavy it
will be, poilcd in all its force. 1t is i'm
peratiyely necessary to overcome it with
the vote Of the ~up.country. In that
vote is the salvation and. safety Of the
State. Next Tuesday You cast your
vote for the continuance Of peace and
prosperity and happiness, or.hy your ab
Srnce from the polls, you make possible
a return, of the day when anarchy WAS
