LET US ORGANIZE.

The Democrats Of old Benton
should lose, no time in thoroughly
organizing for the campaign of
1902.
If you are a Democrat you must
believe in Democratic principles,
favor Democrats for Office, and be
willing and ready to work for party
successin county, district and State.
We have just nominated a good
county ticket, but this is not all.
There are legislative, judicial and
Congressional candidates to be Sc
lected as we'll as the chief executive
of the State.
The CHRONICLE desires and earn
estly hopes to see, only good men
put in nomination-men who fill
the Jeffersonian idea for honesty,
capability, and loyalty to party.
Whenever a man is named for
Office, apply to him these tests:
Is he capable? Is he honest? Is
he Democrat?
If he fills the bill you havea good
man, and one whom you can conf
IDENTIFY place before the people as
worthy and deserving Of their SUI
fFages.
Let these requirements be con-
sidered briefly:
Is he capable?
This is important, for man may
be thorough Democrat, as we'll as
strictly honest, yet if he lack in ca
pability or capacity to discharge
the duties Of the office to which he
aspires or for which he is named,
this weakness will be discovered by
his opponents and the voters, and
in the event Of his election he will
be a sorry failure in Office and en-
barrass and compromise party sue
