We note with .,asure the political expressions
from the other townships. last week. That is
right. brethren, let your thoughts be put on pa
per and give US the benefit of them. We need
not be ashamed of cur party or its candidates. /
and what is needed is to present the truth to the
people in plain. honest way that all can under
stand an,l rest assured of the result. This, as re-
CARDS the candidates for state Office will be ia !
ken up By the different papers and thoroughly |
discussed; but the candidates in whom we have
the mos direct interest. viz. for our county and
township offices. can only be aided by indi
vidual efforts. AMI the Psess is good medium to
transmit our thoughts to each other. It is our
duty to see that every Democrat is a subscriber
forsthe Press 1t is also duty to aid the Press

Let every township lend helping hand and re-
member that Randolph will not stand back or be
| content anywhere but at the front. Wake up!

with him that the language is very significant
