la certain quarters then
to be a disposition to qu< st*on tin
certainty of Democratic victory
in Virginia on the 7th o? Novem?
ber next.
For our part we cannot help
agreeing with the Timcs-Dis,
that the election o? Mr-. Swanson
and the Democratic ticket is a
>nclusi< >n. There w en
ti, the 1, ?. v m 1 , votes
pledged in honor to the support
of the nominees o( that primary,
and there were many Democrats
who will support the ticket who
did not express their choice be?
tween Democrats on Aug.
Moreover, there were onlj
Republicans in Virginia who n
for Roosevelt last fall, and every
one knows that there are far more
men in Virginia who vote the Re?
publican ticket in national than
in State elections.
Where then can the votescome
iro.n to place the slightest sus?
picion upon the triumph of De?
mocracy in the coming election ?
' Added to the figures we have
given above are very potent argu?
ments for Democratic supremacy
in Virginia. First of all the rec?
ord of the party in State affairs is
clean ami honorable, and its can?
didates at this tin:?- arc im
character, integrity and ability.
Secondly, the party by its policy
in State affairs i i daily increasing
the efficiency of the free s
system and is promising with
every indication both of willing
peas and ability to keep its
promise ? more strenuous and
better directed efforts t>> perfect
that s>stem ; the same maj be
said of the roads of the Stal
The party has also committed
itself to the policy of local de?
cision as to the sale of liquor and
has passed, through a Demo
