THE COMMITTEE.

For the almost unprecedented
Democratic pluralities rolled up in the
election in Bates county, Nov. 3rd,
credit may be given to two sources;
first the irreproachable record of the
Democratic administration in the ma.
ton, state and county; and second, to
the work of the members of the Dem
ocratic County Central Committee up.
on whom fell the burden of getting
out the vote in an "off year..
With the county safely Democratic
over confidence, as the Times point
ed out editorially, might have cost
the Democracy dear, and the commit
tee recognizing this fact, worked un-
ceasingly from the date of their
organization up to the time of the
closing of the polls on election day in
order that there might be no stay at
home vote and consequently the pos
sible loss of a part of the ticket.
A plan of campaign was perfected
upon the organization of the commit
tee and carried out in detail, each
member of the committee throwing
himself into the fight, and the re-
turns from each township shows the
result of the labor of its committee
man.
The members of the county COM
mittee give their work, time and often
money to the party without hope of
remuneration and often without rec
ignition, and The Times bespeaks for
the present committee, the credit
which is its due.
