To Democrats of Boone County

y
As Chairman of the Boone County
Democratic Central Committee.
am going to ask every good loya
Democrat to do his utmost to help
bring about the victory in our Ma
tional election that now seems as,
Sured.
With the Republican Party di,
vided as it is and our Grand Old
Democratic Party united and being
led by that staunch Progressive
Democrat Gov. Woodrow Wilson
and Gov. Marshall his running mate
and with that Great Commoner
William !, Bryan supporting them, ]
feel like we are assured a great vic
tory.
This is contest between the com.
mon people led by the Democratic
Party on one side and the Wall
Street gang championed by the Re
publican Party on the other side.
And since it takes vast amount
of money to conduct the National
Campaign even though ecOnomi-
cally and legitimately conducted,
! believe that this Campaign Fund
should be made up from the masses
of the people and not from the great
Trusts and favor-seeking corpora
tions that are operating to the det-
riment Of the great majority Of our
people.
So when we elect as our presi-
dent Gov. Wilson and Gov, Mar
shall for our vice in November they
may be able to go into Office un-
hampered and with a single purpose
in view and that to let the Great
American People come into posses
sion of their own once more.
! Iappeal to you Of Boone County
as loyal Democrats that know YOU
are, to let us start now this great
fight for the common people by con-
tributing as literally as possible to
our National Campaign Fund,
Let your part be large or small |
assure you that the small contribu-
ton will be appreciated just as
much as the larger one, any one
wishing to help in this cause may
deposit his contribution with either
of the three Banks in Harrison
where he will be given a receipt for
same,
And | will have published from
time to time through The Harrison
Times a list of those who have con-
tributed together with the amount
contributed, Also ! will send all
contributions to the Treasurer OF
the Democratic National Committee
giving the name of each contributor
and the amount contributed
Let us be early and let Boone
County take the lead in this fight
so other counties in the grand old
State of Arkansas as well as in all
other states may follow our exam.
pie and make this victory so great
that the great money powers of this
Nation controlled by the Trusts and
favor.seeking Corporations will for.
