But few Democrats (if any will vote
against William L. Wilson in November.
The nature of the campaign against him
will not admit of it. From the beginning
the Republicans have set him up as repre-
senting the National Democracy and con-
tended that his defeat would be severe
blow to the party all over The country. To
encompass his defeat every trust will con-
tribute to the Dayton corruption fund and
speakers of national reputation will invade
the district. To them the defeat Of Wilson
is the downfall Of Democracy BY this style
they have lifted the campaign out of the
district lines and have given it a national
importance and no Democrat can let any
personal objection or difference in views
upon any question, either keep him away
from the polls or induce him to vote against
Wilson Fdrmom Inder.
