is good rule and safe guide TO
proper and legitimate conclu-ion as
to personal political character, for,
who can be GENUINE Democrat
and, "a the same time, either through
personal prejudice or revenge, some
tancled injury or pretended abuse of
power, vote for md with the oppo-
sition. To be GENUINE is to be free
from aduteration. to be REAL, TRUE,
PURE, therefore, no man can answer
the definition. in politics, who is not
really pure from the slightest taint or
tendencg to repub!icanism and abso-
lutely true to al the requests, de-
mands, nominations, platforms and
candidates cf the Democratic party
COUNTY, National and State. Onr
people are coming more and more to
appreciate this and it is not at all
uncommon, of late, to hear men SAY ,
even as to our candidates in the
county election: "If A don't support
B, the regular nominee on the ticket.
then | won't vote for a, I'd see him
in HI first" This is the feeling of
life long Democrats many of whom
would rather support a simon-pure
radical than an inconstant, wavoring
unsteady vacilIating pretender who
chances, by luck or 0 herwise, to
secure the nomination but. who, in
his heart. is as to ally unfit and un-
worthy the confidence and associa,
tion of Democrats as an angel OF
darkness is unfit for the light Of life
and heaven Every candidate must
show himself man or the people
will witness him defeat. He must
VOTE the Democratic ticket. open
and aboveboard or e:se the boys are
going back on him. THEY'LL be at the
polls and on the watch and ready to
spread the news Of any candidates
failure to support the ENTIRE ticket
with tightening rapidty that the
people may know FOR WHOM they
are asked to cast their b llots. This
is not all. The people want every
candidate to vote early in the DAY,
vote first, and vote an open ticket
that they NAV know who is for
Warren or who is fr Perry, who for
Small or who for Outl Nv, who for
Bond or who for Blair. They have
a right to know it and should know
it before their votes are cast. Every
man has a right to know who he is
asked TO vote for else how can he
vote. as a good citizen ought, for the
best interests of his county, his State
and his people. He who votes
against nv candidate votes against
me and, therefore, I'll vote against
him if l can find it out" That's the
language of Democrats all over this
town aud county. SO strong are
they in this determination that they
20 bevond the candidates now in the
field and they swear they will never,
under any circumstances. support
any man for any Office, elective or
otherwise, who will not vote the
entire ticket from President down to
County Coroner in this election. /
