Americans Largely in the Ma
jority, but Not Alive
to Situation.
SHOULD VOTE TUESDAY
False Impression Is Created
That the Primary Is With
out Importance.

The American party canvass OF INC
entire city WAS completed yesterday
This canvass shows that there arc two
American votes in tho city TO ono OF
auy other party While this fact is
highly encouraging and gratifying 10
American voters The canvass likewise
reveals another fact. much less encour-
aging. THIS is that an impression ap-
pears TO be prevalent among great
many American voters that the primary
election of next Tuesday is unlmportanr
aud that it is unnecessary Tor Amcrl-
cans To 90 TO the polls on next tues
day. This impression is absolutely cr
roneous To Americans the election OF
next Tuesday is of the utmost I'M
portaucc. The great battle Is to he dc-
eided Tuesday. 1t can be won by tnG
Americans only through the individual
effort of every American voter.
There are $4,000 American voters IN
Salt Lake City, If everyone Of these
voters goes to the polls and votes for
the six American candidates for city
Office next Tuesday the thing Is easy
But ii is certain that everyone of these
voters will not go TO the polls next
Tuesday. 1t is certain that many, Ia
boring under the false impression that
the primary election is nDlmportnnt,
will remain away from the polls on
Tuesday.
1t is, therefore. the more necessary
thai the false impression concerning tue
primary election be corrected and that
every American voter urgc upon eY-
cry other member OF the American
party tho necessity of voting ut next
Tuesday s election. IT all of the Amor
lean voters go to the polls on Tuesday
the American candidates will easily
win The only possibility Of defeat
of the Americans is through ovcr-con
fidcncc. IL is the duty of every A,nerl-
can to vote for the American candl-
dates at the primary election and make
their victory rs nearly unanimous ms
possible
The polls for the primary election will
be open next Tuesday from Z u clock
in the morning until O'Clock in the
evening Every voter should cast his
ballot as early as possible. Despite
warnings and efforts Of party workers
there arc always large number Of vot-
ers who do not 90 to the polls until the
last minute This occasions 4 conges-
ton that often results in the loss of
MANY votes This time every Amcri-
can should make an effort to cast his
ballot before moon. This viii not only
insure mis- vote being counted, but VIII
greatly assist the American party or
nanizatiou in each district IN getting
out the American vote Every bnllot
cast BY an American voter i'll the fore
noon will make possible heavier
American vote in the afternoon.
