Get Out The Vote

The vignette used on the Kepublicau ticket tliis spring will lio the same as that of last fall, and i tut of it is here appeuded: Under this vignette you will find tUe names of the candidates for whom it would be a judicious act to cast a straight vote. Our opponents are inclined to figbt the present local campaign on national issues, and certainly the Republicans have no occasion to evade that kind oL contest. We are ready to take it either way. Wherever the campaign turne upou the personal eharacter and ütness of the candidates, we point to men on our state ticket whose natural qualifications and wide experience challenge eomparison with the candidates upon any other ticket. Wherever the eontest is made upon national issues üie Republican party occupies the same ground that it did last fall. It won theu by a majority that staggered its opponents. lts triüixipb may be equally decisive this spring with a little etïort. ïhe spring campaign is usually a quiet one, and this is no exception to the rule. Our opponents are not making much noise, but it will not answer to presume that they are going to stay at home on election day. They want all the local otlices they can get, and can be depended upon to make a still hunt for votes for the state ticket at the sanie time. ■Yhat the Republicaus ought to do, the very least they should permit themselves to do, is to get out a correspondingly large vote. Don't let either indifference or over confidence leave us with a majority so small that it will be interpreted as an opposition triumph.
