YEOMANs, CALL.


The circular letter of Mr.. Yeonans,
chairman of the State Democratic
Committee, states clearly why Demo-
Gratis In this state should make a spe-
cial effort to vote at the national cleo
tion. He points out that there is great
activity among the Prohibitionists,
Populists and Republicans, and the in
dications are that, together they will
cast a pretty big vote. If Democratic
electors are chosen they must have a
majority of the votes cast a plurality
will not do.
1t is evident, therefore. that If Par
ker and Davis are to have the electors
of this state by vote of the people,
Democrats must show more interest in
the national election on Nov. than
they did in the state election on
oct. s.
Of course, If the Democratic electors
failed to get a majority they would be
chosen by the Legislature, but that
body would have to be called in special
session for that purpose. 1t would be
serious reflection on the Democracy
Of the Empire State of the South If
it failed to give a majority to the
Democratic ticket.
Georgia is overwhelmingly Demo-
cratic, but because so many Democrats
think the state is certain to give big
Democratic majority enough Of them
may stay away from the polls to pre-
vent the Democratic ticket from get
ting majority The responsibility for
giving tile Democratic ticket a good,
old-time Democratic majority now rests
upon the Democratic voters.

A Word to the Tax Payers Of Union COunty.

BLK PoINT, s. D.. FEB. ii, 19t

ELK POINT, s. d., FEB. ii, 1904.
Some time ago noticed In the COM
missioners' proceedings that they had
settled the taxes on the Murphy proper
ty at loss of about S4O0 to the county,
and benefited only rich corporation.
Now we notice In the last proceedings
that,the tax OF Mr.. d. r. Walker, which
Was little over $4,000, was settled Tor
$35 90. The minutes show that Com
missioner Main voted against the re-
duction of Walkers taxes and the vote
for the reduction on the Murphy prop
erty was unanimous, each member vot-
ing for the reduction, so the county had
to lose about $4,000 and rich cor
poration got the benefit of it. Now
why did Mr.. Main vote against the re-
duction OF Mr.. Walkers taxes and in
favor Of reducing those for the benefit
OF corporation? Can he or some one
else explain?
