The Duty Of Augusta Republicans.

creasing interest in municipal affairs
that has been manifest among the Ike
publicans of Augusta Indifference is
vastly more to be feared than differ
ent,es in a political organization. 1t IS
riaht that every citizen should take an
active interest in the affairs of his
municipality. 1t is right that he should
have positive views upon the matter
of candidates, and it is a duty he owes
to himself and the community to at
tend the primaries of his party and
give expression to them With his vote.
When this has been done and the nomi-
nees of the party duly selected, all diff
ferences should be al an end, and every
Republican give the ticket his cordial
and hearty support. We have had
large caucuses in the city of Augusta,
and we sincerely hope that the one, to-
night, may he a record breaker. We
