URGES EVERY ONE TO VOTE

Selma. November -(special)-The fol- lowing communication has been address, ed to the democrats of Alabama: To the Democrats of Alabama: A magnificent tribute will be paid the democratic party when on Tuesday next the democratic voters in this state record at the polls their unshaken faith in its principles and add another victory to the unbroken record of more than a quarter of a century.
 The older people must not forget and the younger must learn the history of the cruel and corrupt rule of the republican party in Alabama, during the horrid era Of so-called reeonstruetion-the very thought or which arouses indignation It was under the democratic banner that we overthrow that shameful rule and have since wrought out marvellous deyelon- ment in all that makes up a great com monwealth.
 For these reasons, If no other than state issues, were involved in this election, loy- alty to our party of liberty and ius+ equality and an abiding sense of erati- tude should impel every democratic elec- tor Tn Alabama to cast his ballot on Tues- oay next But other and If possible more weighty reasons imperatiyelv call him 10 the polls. The battle is on between the sleal Partles or this republic On the SAtS SANS eit IeDuDHcdnS, the DaffV of irf1- perlallsm, threatening to substitute for government under the constitution of our loreIathers rule more imperialistic and laWleSs than wes the one of which the heroes Of 17l5 declared their independ encei the party of trusts the iniouitous oHspflng Of the robber tariff. which are making commercial slaves of the Ameri- can peopie; the party of standardization and seclionaIism, hating you and your civil izatlon and ready to crush vou when tha opportunity comes; the party which has ueolareu US purpose to disfranchise you because for your self preservation you nave p common with the other southern states' enacted laws to preserve the rule ol ilteihgence and virtue In the south,
 on the other side the great democrat tic party-the party of constitutional govern ment, the mortal enemy of the robber tarlrt and trusts, of centralization. sec tlonallsm and of dishonesty in govern menu the party under whose rule von can rest secure in the enjoyment of all your just rights and work out in a wise ana benevolent way your own civiliza- ton.
 No man in Alabama In whose veins 1lows the unstained blood of the cau- caslan can hesitate how to cast his bal lot or loiter on the way to the polls. Our nrethren of the north are making great flght-a fight not only for themselves and their liberties but more ssentally for you and your firesides, for defeat or victory means Infinitely more to you than to them.
 They call loudly to us of the south and their battle cries are an inspiration.
 The speeches of our great leader are ougle calls to the combat and inspire us with hope born of faith in the right and its triumph
 Let no democrat fall to muster on Tuesday and take part in the struggle that is so full of promise of victory.

 the Democratic Party of Alabama. R, 10. L. MEL, Secretary.
