To the Members of the Republican Club'
of Vermont:
The Republican State, District and Coun
ty conventions for the nomination of candi
dates to be supported by the party at the
coming September election have now beer
held, and it remains for the Republican
electors of Vermont to 60 to the polls and
give the nominees their votes on election
day. The candidates for Governor, fol
State and County offices have been Endorsed
by the unanimous voice of the delegates in
the conventions which have been holden,
and as tried and true Republicans they are
entitled to receive the loyal and earnest
support of every republican in this state.
The Democratic leaders in Vermont are
quietly but aggressively at work to reduce
They count on apathy among the voters
and hope for disSenSiOns in our ranks to
aid them in their efforts to lessen our vote
and increase their own; thereby enabling
them, If successful, to claim victory on
the face of the returns.
Under the existing political conditions,
the members of the Executive COmmitte of
of the Republican League of Vermont be-
Ieve 1t to be their duty to appeal to the
10000 members of the $50 League and Cam
paign clubs organized in 1888 to rally to
the support of our State, Congressional and
County tickets.
Every one of the $4,000 electors who vot-
ed for VIM. P. Dillingham; for Governor in
1888 should east their ballots for Carroll s.
membered that the splendid victory achiev-
ed by the dominant party at the September
election in Vermont, when Dillingham; re-
ceived majority of 1888 was in great
measure due to the efforts Of Mr. Page,
seconded by the Republican League organ
no Evo No, =
ly requests the revival of every League and
Campaign club for active participation in
the present campaign. Let the president,
secretary or other officers of every local
club organized in 1885, call meeting of
such organization early in August to indug-
urate canvass among the voters, that Will
result in bringing out a full vote. In no
other way can so effective work be done
There is now permanent Republican
League organization in nearly every state
in the Union and the officers Of the Nation
al organization earnestly request the per-
petuatiOn Of the Vermont League. At the
last National Convention, held in Nash.
ville Tenn, the Vermont League was rep
resented, Hon. Gilbert A. Davis of Wind
NJ. 5. Colburn of Manchester, member of
the Executive Committee for this state.
The second biennial meeting of the Yer
mont Republican League held at MOntpel-
Ter at the close of the State Convention, re-
suited in perpetuation of the state organ
ization with the view of reviving the local
clubs, for work in the present campaign,
thereby putting them in line for effective
work in the Presidential campaign of 1892.
Vermont has the enviable distinction of
being the only state that has been stead |
lastly republican since the organization of
the party, among the sisterhOOd of States |
that existed at that time. Let every Re |
publican contribute his best efforts to |
maintain the old fashioned majority which |
the state has given in off years, and there |
BY encourage the party throughout the Ma
lion and deepen the shadow of gloom that |
hangs over the depOsed National Democra-
~.
