AN APPEAL
To democratic voters of Red
Willow County
On Friday 19th primaries
will be held at the usual voting
places to enable the respective
political parties to select candi
dates for each party to be voted
for at the November general elec
tion
The democratic party this year
has an opportunity never presen
ted to it before of serving the
country by electing its entire tick
et if it is careful to select good
men at this primary for the sev
eral offices to be filled both state
and national
The republican party is hope
lessly split up into warring fac
tions each eager to control the
spoils of office and the people are
looking to the democratic party
for relief and will surely support
the nominees of our party and
will give us victory if we nomi
nate democrats in whom the
people have confidence
It is not only foolish but is ab
solutely wrong for the electors of
one party to vote for candidates
of the other party at this primary
election and no democrat should
allow himself to be persuaded to
vote for republicans because some
friend asks him to do so or be
cause a candidate on the republi
can ticket is his neighbor to do
so would not only be reprehensi
ble but an act of disloyalty to his
party and its principles The
great democratic party is now en
gaged in a terrific struggle to lift
the burdens from a long suffering
people both in the state and na
tion To you democrats each
and every one of you we appeal
to attend the primaries on
next Friday and see to it that
winners are nominated on our
ticket Do not be mislead by
the enemies of reform and do
not let them cause you to lose
this golden opportunity for suc
cess by voting the republican tick
et and thus fail to aid your own
party
See to it that you put a cross
after the name of the democrat
whom you think will best serve
the people from president down
to the smallest precinct office by
doing so you will have done your
highest duty to your party and
country
