THURSDAY EVENING, SEPT. 11, 1856.
Organize!
It is but few weeks to the State election, one which will have an important bearing in determining the general success of the Democratic party. Democrats of Marion county are you prepared for the issue? Has everything been done to secure success that can be? If not, there is no time to be lost. We urge you not to rely on what has been accomplished, but put your hands to the work and never cease while labor is to be done.
We warn you in time that deep laid schemes are on foot by the Black Republican leaders to carry this county. In those plans they must be foiled, and it can only be by increasing vigilance. You may rest assured that everything that money can do, everything that can be accomplished by chicanery and dishonest means, will not be left unattempted. The work that is needed is continued personal effort by every Democrat in the neighborhood which surrounds him. No man is so humble who has not some influence, and those who have done much can do more. We say to you again, pull off your coats, roll up your sleeves, labor like men in earnest, who have a great work to accomplish, and we assure you the result will be a glorious triumph.
