The campaign was highly success
full and very gratifying to all con-
cerned. In everything pertaining to
the interest of the Democrat" it was
the most encouraging of the three
that have been conducted. The amount
in prizes was less and this
fact made the financial returns all
the more satisfactory.
If any one has any doubt about
the wide area included in the circula-
ton of the Democrat, all one has
to do is to read the poem entitled
Thanks" on another page, contrib
ltel by Rev. Mr.. Wooten as a card of
of the support given him
in his most successful effort to land
4 prize.
The Democrat wishes to extend a
hearty welcome to all those who have
newly joined its roster of readers;
md also to those who have shown
heir hearty appreciation of the paper,
~ subscribing to extensions cover
ng periods of from one year to ten.
The object of the Democrat" will
always be to deserve the confidence
imposed in it, and to grow better and
better as the years come and go.
