The result OF the election OF Tuesday In
Manchester shows the splendid work
which was done by the City Democratic
Comr,ittee. Those who have not been on
the ground and familiar with the as
pect OF things political In Manchester
and Chesterfield cannot realize the con
di'ion OF things which confronted the
Democratic leaders at the beginning or
this campaign. The party seemed 10 DC
totally disrupted. There was general dis
Satisfaction, and the political enemies
of the party lost no time In taking ad-
vantage OF this state OF affairs.
Then, too. another potent factor against
Democratic success was the ignorance OF
the great mass Of voters. Iney seemed
10 know only one thing-hard times-and
these were attributed directly to Demo
cratic legislation In the last Congress.
To overcome these seemingly insurmount-
able obstacles the Democratic leaders
buckled down 10 work.
The campaign has been essentially one
of education. Well-kno@n orators nave

county of Chesterfield, and by practical
Illustrations and plain facts have clearly
