APPEAL TO VOTERS
The primaries Saturday will end a warm campaign and it should be the duty of every Democratic voter to go to the polls and vote for the man whom he thinks will fill the office best. Neither rain nor anything else should deter a man from performing this duty to his party. Nor should any citizen allow his vote to be controlled by any consideration whatever. The party should put up a strong ticket and will do so for all candidates are worthy of the support of the party at the fall election. If there is bad government the people are themselves responsible for it as the matter is left entirely in their own hands.
GO TO THE PRIMARIES. WHATEVER MAY HAPPEN. GO TO THE PRIMARIES.
