the party's strength, so that every pcs
slble influence can be brought to bear
in the Congressional elections next
fall. Not single vote that might be
secured should be lost.
The Democratic party seems at the
pre- emit time TO be &C mpletely democrat
l ed, and many con ervative mon be-
lieve that a Republican victory is al
ieady assured. But over-confdence is
a dangerous thing, and because of it
the Republicans have lost important
Official battles in the past The De-
mOcracy has the happy faculty OF unit
ing its forces jut before great cleo
tion5, and because its leaders devote
their best energies toward securing a
perfect organi alton they have some
times been able to win victo les which
the Republic ans were confident would
fall to tn ir lot, and which they would
have won had they displayed half as
much energy as the Democrats did.
The best plan tf organization il to
form Republican clubs in every city,
town and village, of which every mem
Der should lie an acti o and Garnet
worker There are such clubs in many
of the larger places, but no field should
be left uncovered. Where clubs al
ready exist no effort should be spared
TO increa 20 tleir mem bership These
clubs exert a remarka BILE influence up
on the communities in which tney are
organized. They serve to sseminate
political information, and to keep alive
the vital issues Of the campaign. The
Democrats use their club headquarters
to the hest possible advantage, as is
shown by the compactness of the Tam
nj
There are such head quarters in every
Assembly district, and in fact in al
IN )st every election dist let in the city.
The result is that Tammany is able to
figure upon the exact voting strength
of the organization at all times.
Too much value cannot be placed
upon the club plan of organization this
year, nor can the importance OF the
coming elections be exaggerated. 1t
is absolute Y Necessary that the Re-
publicans should secure a majority in
the next National House OF Represen-
tatives. The industries OF the nation
az at stake. Now is the time to begin
the campaign. Delays are always dan
gerous, and never more so than when
in the D essence of an active, deter
mined and malignant enemy. III active
agitation Is begun at this stage, the
result will be that the primaries will
be well attended, the best men will be
sent as delegate, to the nominating
conventio Is, and the strongest 20 sible
candidates chosen. The proper me-
dunn for agitation is the local club or
ga atoms.
If the Republicans hal been as thor
oughly organized as the Democrats in
1892, We would, in all probability, have
won that election and have been spared
the awful depression and distress that
have followed the Democratic victory.
Remember that, Republican voters,
and be on your guard! Organize, and
do it now!
