DEMOCRATS "LAYINE DOWN ON
THE JOB"

~ good citizen and Democrat cali
cd in the office the other day to ash
why the Democrats are so Indifferent
and inactive in this campaign? He
said that there were some Demo
Gratis in his section that didn't oven
know when the election is to be
held, that no speeches are being
made, no literature sent out or an,
thing, and that every thing political
had been turned over, lock, stoc:.
and barred, to the Republicans.
He was not far wrong. The Demo
Gratis in this county have 10 organi-
zation, not even Il county chairman
it seems. Mr.. Patty has moved to
Roanoke, gotten married, given up
the Job us county chairman, althc
his resignation has not been offered
so far rs known. There is nothing
dom in Democratic circles.
One reason is. perhaps, that the
Democrats are SO far in the minorit,
that they consider it useless to waste
time and money in making fight.
Another reason, the Democrats do
not consider the ticket in any dan.
ger whatever of defeat. Trinkle AMI
the entire ticket, is certain of cleo
ton, they think, and hence there Is
no need of worry. And. so, for these
reasons, and perhaps others, thu.
Democrats are "laying down." and
let the wide world wag as it will. g.,
far as this county is concerned.

tually advantageous. The HIJltoppers

been rumors to the effect that the
