Come Out, Republicans!

Pascoag Herald
While we do not attempt to say that
the Republican party never did wrong,
we do say most emphatically that any
voter who casts ballot for the candi-
dates of that party this year will
make no mistake. The Republican
party is the party OF prosperity
and protection. Its candidates this
year are capable, clear headed citizens Of
our town and State, men who have earned
the right to our votes on election day.
Every Republican should come to the
polls, and every voter who cares aught for
his family, his position, or his country
should cast his ballot on April 3rd for the
gentlemen named on the Republican
ticket.

The Rhode Island State election comes
next Wednesday. There has been so little
noise and excitement incident to it that
many people can hardly realize 1t is so
near at hand. 1t will, without shadow OF
doubt, be a Republics victory, aud the
only matter of conjecture is how large
majority that party will roll up. The Re-
publican State ticket consists OF clean
and able men, and the affairs OF the State
will be well administered during the
coming year. The General Assembly is
likely TO be almost as overwhelmingly
Republican as it is this session.

Election Day Duty.
East Greenwich Pendulum.


The annual State election takes place
next Wednesday. Election day is the SOW
ereign citizens opportunity. 1t Is at
the ballot-bo where he governs, and IL
he be true citizen he will see to it that
he votes, and in so doing he will be guided
alone by honest convictions as to what is
best for the community. Much rs may
truthfully be said OF existing corruption
in American politics, not too much en-
phasis can be put on the fact that corrup-
tion too often succeeds and Is made pos
sible by the apathy of citizens who would
vote their convictions IL they voted, but
stay away from the ballot box.
The State canvass that Is now about to
close is one SO generally conceded to be
OF the excellent State ticket nominated by
the Republicans that there is danger Of
to many "stay at homes on election
day. This should not be. The entire Re-
publican vote OF the State should be
represented in the election returns OF
next Wednesday night. In such event
there will be represented the popular will
without question and the election day re-
turns will mean much more than a mere
partisan victory. To every voter we ap-
peal, that IL he believes i'm the sovereign
ity of American citizenship, II he values
the privilege OF the franchise, il he has
respect for American manhood, let him
see TO it that he votes next Wednesday,
and that he votes as a man should, as his
intelligence dictates.
