Where the People
 May Have Hearing
For Democrats Only

To The Republican,:
 These are momentous times in the history of the world. the principles of autocracy are at war with the prin- clples Of democracy Our nation has espouSed the cause of democracy, and IS spending her blood and 1->asure in defense Of these principles thss all the peoples of the world shall be free from the domination of imperialstic power. The very existence of our nation as free and independent people is bound up in the issue for which we are fight ing. How important it is then, that we have leaders that are tried, true, and capable, and such leaders we now have | they have proved themselves able and competent through all this great cata- clysm of war, to meet the situation successfully and to steer the ship of state safely through the troubled wat CTS thus far.
 | Standing conSpicuously at the head Of the many great men that have come to the front during this great world crisis. under whose leadership and guidance our nation has accomplished such wonderful results in all branches of war work both at home and abroad are our president. Woodrow Wilson. and William G. MacAdoo
 They are leaders that are tried, true. and capable, they have the knowledge Of the situation that comes of eXper- fence and we can safely trust the con- clusion of the issue in their hands The able statesmanship and masterful di- plomacy of President Wilson has proved him not only the greatest lead CT in the United States today, but has also made him the recognized leader and spokesman for the nations of the Entente Alliance.
 President Wilson will guide the des- tinies of our nation for the next two years, and William G. MacAdoo, the man who tanned Wall Street, who is the recognized financial leader of the world, and who has already proved himself both in statesmanship and ex- ecutive ability to be a worthy success sor of our great president. will un- doubtedly be the democratic candidate for the office of president of the United States in 1920.
 Now as we, the people of this state have backed them up Loyalty in every request or demand made upon us for war work, from thrift stamps to liberty bonds, and from food conservation to the selective draft, so let us also loy- ally back them up politically. To do this, we must elect a democratic rep resentatlve to congress, and demo- cratic governor for the state.
 For the incumbents of these two of- fees will be in office during the next presidential campaign and will have a tremendous influence in that election If we elect a democratic delegate to congress and democratic governor all the influence and power of these of fees will be used to help elect dem ocratic president, and on the other hand if the people of this state elect a republican delegate to congress, and a republican governor all the power and influence of their office will be used tC elect a republican president.
 And I appeal to the people of this state not to allow local issues or per sonal feelings to becloud the real and moe+ important thing for which the re- publicans are working. and for which purpose the republican national cam paign committee are sending money into the state already, and remember that every vote cast for Campbell ol Maddock. will be a vote against Will son and MacAdoo, ard the national ad- ministration. And every vote cast fol Hayden and Colter will be a vote fol Wilson and MacAdoo and to sustain and maintain our national administra ton.
 Very truly yours,
 J. A. R. IRVINE
