There is danger in being over con-
tident. The republican party knows
that it is right and knows that a ma
jority of the people of the United
States are satisfied with existing con-
ditions and do not want a change:
consequently they see no danger of de-
feat. But no republican should move
out of his township now. or take any
trip that will deprive him of bis vote.
The democratic party is thoroughly
organized. 1t wants the Offices and
will leave nothing undone to get them,
therefore every man who wishes the
present prosperity to remain should
give the, republican party his voice,
his efforts, his thought during the
next five weeks and be certain that
his ballot is cast for Roosevelt and
Fairbanks on election day.
