Chairman Davenport Asks Ears
Of the People.
NO Reason In the World Why ANY
Republican Should Scratch
His Ticket.

C0lfax, Nov. 1-Editor Gazette. Thps
far in the campaign have asked for hnt
little OF yOlr space. AS this is the last
opportunity | will have before election
OF addressing the voters through tho
medium of the local press,I desire hrieAr
TO call the attention OF all republicans
10 the duty devolving upon them in the
approaching contest
The Gazette, as well as all the republi-
can papers in Whitman county, has
done good work. Every reason has
Deen given why all republicans should
line up solidly in support of their ticket.
NO reason exists why any republican
should TAIL in his duty to support every
nominee of the county and state con
ventIons- All are capable and honest
men. No assault has been made against
the personal character or integrity of
any OF our candidates.
My parting injunction to all republi-
cans is to stand Loyalty by the men we
have chosen for the various Offices.
There Is not one who is undeserving
Give your solid support to the entire
ticket. Efforts will be made by the on
position to influence your vote in certain
directions; to divide your ballot. Don't
be led into this error. As republicans
let US stand by our guns. A divided
vote means weakening of our ticket
and the strengthening of the opposition.
Let US then go to the polls with the
courage of our convictions, and place
an \ opposite the line which reads ere
publican Ticket" This done we can be
assured OF success and at the same time
have the consciousness that our duty
has been performed.
