There are five campaign COM
mitteemen in each precinct in
the State whose duty it is TO see
that every Democrat or other
person who will vote the Demo
cratic ticket shall go to the polls
on Nov. 18th and cast his ballot.
These gentlemen have been APP
pointed because of their enthusi-
asm and energy and it Is safe
to assume that they will do their
full duty. If they do and a full
vote is recorded, there will be
no doubt of the outcome. Ken
lucky is naturally democratic
State and it is only when demo
Gratis fail of their duty that she
departs from her traditions.
There is every reason this year
that every Democrat should be
alert and let nothing keep him
from the polls. President Wilson
must be kept on guard to pro-
tect the honor of the nation with
out war if possible, and to main
tain peace and prosperity. What |
he has done Is an earnest of
what he will do to carry out the
splendid program mapped out.
BE sure to go to the polls and
stamp under the rooster.
