Messrs. W.T. Murray, W. W. Fairbanks, John Beech and others are doing some good work in speak ing through the county this week, stirring up the people to a thorough appreciation of the situation. The republicans are leaving no stone un turned to bring out their fulL vote, and democrats must be up and doing. Lay aside apathy and personal feel ing and give both Buchanan and Snodgrass the full vote. The interest of the party calls you to this duty. We understood that republicans in this county are offering to sup port Buchanan If alliance men will in turn vote for Clay Evans. No true democrat will be caught by such a flimsy trick as this. Republicans know that Baxter, their candidate for governor, has no chance whatever for election, and they are very will ing to throw away their vote for governor in order to secure a demo crat's ballot for Evans, who has proved himself an arch traitor to the South in congress. Let every demo crat in Warren County be true to his party next Tuesday, vote straight for your party candidates, and spurn every dirty republican trick of trading.
