No candidate who was defeated in
the recent primary, with a spark Of
craftsmanship in his makeup will
resent it at the polls. 1t just so hap
pened that circumstances and condi-
tons were unfavorable to him &C the
time Ut was by no means refec-
ton upon him, and should not by him
be SO considered, and it does not dis
credit him to the slightest degree.
But he can discredit himself by OPP
position, either open or covert, to fis
party and it. candidates. TO be de-
feated is not to be disgraced. The
late Mr.. Mckinley was once defeated
for Congress, and afterward became
President of the United States. There

your party than by earnest active

RE LOYAL TO YOUR PARTY LIE
YOU BELIEVE IN IT'S PRIN-
CIPLES

We have now reached TIE last
stretch of the campaign, and We are
pleased to state that from every part
of the county comes such cheering
news as to enable US to forecast
sweeping Democratic victory for the
entire ticket, both state and local
Why should it not be SO?
For forty-eight years the Demo-
cratic party has been in control OF
the county government, with the s.
ception of the Clerks and Registers
offices which by misadyenture were
lost in 1909, and we venture nothing
when we say, that in all these years
there has not been better, or more
economically governed county ANA
the State. The tax rate has here
been kept as low as a progressive age
and the requirements Of a growing
population would permit, law and or
der prevail everywhere within our
borders, crime IL at minimum, or
portunity for education at the public
expense is afforded to all, and
no scandal attaches to the admins
tration of any county office.
OF this record AN Democrats should
be proud, too proud, to risk blurr1ng
it by voting for a Republican for any
county office; not that the name
Democrat or Republican makes man
more or less honest, but a departure
from the party ticket Il blow az
the organization, which affords the
only efficient means for the success
full propagation and perpetuation OF
party principles. III You believe our
government when conducted in ac-
cordance with Democratic principles
will best promote the interests and
welfare of all the people, and is near
er in accord with that contemplated
