GET THE VOTE OUT.

This Is to be fast, and from
present indications, furious cam.
paign.
We expect to hew to the line us
near as possible with the, hope Of
placing the issues of the campaign
clearly before the people and do no
expect to engage in any unpleasant
personalities. We do not think W.,
can make votes in that manner. i,
will be obviously impossible in this
brief space OF time TO convert man!
Democrats to the Republican faith,
There are, however, certain indie
pendent thinkers and voters in tn,
Democratic party that we belten'
will vote. the Republican ticket ol
October II, but the majority of thu
party men Of the Democratic part;
will vote the ticket. regardless Of an!
criticism that might be offered by
newspaper OF another party. TIL
average Democrat will vote his LlCKe.
whether Mr.. Nicely is the candidate
of 1.-The Gold Dust Twins" as tho
leadership of the Democracy is some
times derisively referred to, or is hi;
own candidate. 1t is but natura
that the leaders of his party will sup
port him and this they have pertec
right to do and Mr.. Nelly is not 80
ing to try to prevent them from do
ing it. That being the case the Re
publicans of this district must NEE
the issue that is made paramount II
the campaign, and that is the tariff
question. They must guard against
greater danger than the source Of
Mr.. Neely's support. Our purpose
will be to point out to every Repub-
lican who reads this newspaper, be h.
known as Progressive or plain Old
fashioned Republican, the fallacy OF
dividing the Republican vote, the
vote In favor Of protective tariff
between two men, while the Demo-
Gratis will vote practically solidly
for their one candidate.
That is the only danger the Re-
publican candidate Confronts. The
Republicans have majority in
every county in the district, save one,
and it is problem OF getting this
vote to the polls. II we succeed in
arousing party ambition and inspir-
ing party loyalty, and have fair
turnout at the polls the victory is
won, and an effort to get the vote
out will be worth more than columns
of argument upon the tariff, for the
majority OF, the voters Of the district
are fundamentally, unCompronlisingIy
and sanely sound upon this question,
aud this effort will be worth immcas-
urably more than any odlous com.
PARSONS Of the personal worth OF til"
candidates. The individuality and
personality of the candidate is sec
Ondary consideration with the aver
age voter.
Bearing these things In mind, Re
publlcans, it Is your duty now, tc
yourselves. to your party and to tho
business interests of this great and
prosperous district to counsel with
your nelghbor aud get him II posi-
bic to vote for the only man who has
the only chance to prevent the dis
trict from being again misreprcscnt-
ed in congress. That man is Julia"

the boys and girls are receiving their
rewards for raising a small patch of
corn and are teaching their parents
and others how to make two ears OF

to be men and women, think what an
addition they will be to the state and
agricultural growth and productiveness

Pocahortas Record: An editor died
and slowly wended his way to where
ne supposed a warm reception await
ed him. The devil saw him and said:
For many years thou hast borne the
blame for the many errors the prin.
ters made in the paper. The paper
has gone, alas. for $3.50, and the s1.50
has often failed to come in. The
printers have reviled thee on Satur-
day night for wages, when then thou
hast not one cent to thy name. Men
have taken the paper without paying
for it, and cursed thee for not getting
out better. Thou hast been called a
dead beat by the passenger conduc-
tors when thou hast shown thy an
nual pass to envious gaze. All this
thou has borne in silence. Thou canst
not come in here And he fired
him: Heaven is his home; and be-
sides, If we let him come in here he
will continually dun delinquent sub.
scribers. for our habitation is full of
them. and thus create disorder in nv
