of the great privilege of voting for the party and for the men who will best serve the purposes of an-honest and an economical government. It is the duty of every citizen to vote, and while this is a democratic newspaper, yet we hope that every one, regardless of party affiliations, will cast his ballot according to the dictates of his own conscience. It is the one great privilege allotted to a free people, and no man should think that he can escape the responsibilities of life and of government by simply refusing to participate and stating his mind in the ballot. Vital questions are determined at every election. It is our judgment that these questions can be better settled by supporting and voting the democratic tickets, yet we accord every man the same rights we conserve to ourselves. Whether he votes with us or against us, he should vote, and we hope that in Decatur and Adams county that every one having that right, will exercise it at the polls. Indications point to a democratic landslide. In Indiana, as in every other state, both east and west, north and south, there is apparent the many elements that do much upon which to base such a prediction. In Adams county the democrats never faced brighter prospects of success and a victory that will be complete. The orI ganization work is most efficient, and ' every democrat connected -therewith

- has been both active and alive. AU the democrats have the feeling that success awaits them, and the Democrat believes that the vote to be registered tomorrow will be of that character to make every democrat proud and happy. But it is your duty to vote. Election day is here. It’s time to i do your part. An eight-week campaign closes tonight, and the result i depends largely on whether or not the vote comes out. Every democrat should vote. Important questions are at stake, and it’s up to the voter what he will say on the issues. Go to the polls early, vote, and then get a friend to do so. Every American owes it ! to himself to cast a ballot on election day. If be don't take part in choosing the men who make and enforce the laws, he is a mighty poor citizen. It is useless for us to go into detail on ' the reasons why you should vote a straight democratic ticket. We have told you often and we tell you again. ' The democratic ticket, state, district and county, deserves your support. Vote it from top to bottom. The Success magazine has issued a late bulletin forecast of the result of ■ the coming election so far as congressmen are concerned. It shows that 187 republicans will be elected, 188 democrats and leaves sixteen districts in doubt Willie Ohls does not show anything definite, it probably fixes one fact that it is going to be close. In ' Indiana the reports elects Boehne. CulI lop, Cox. Dixon, Moss, Adair and Cline, democrats, and Crumpacker, republican. It makes five districts doubtful —the Sixth, Seventh, Ninth, Eleventh and Thirteenth. Good news for the democrats comes from every state where there is an election tomorrow. The democrats will very probably win in New York, Ohio, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Ne--1 braska, Indiana and many other states. The bettings boards all favor the democrats and it remains only to get out the vote. The election approaches with a feeling of victory with the democrats, and the republicans with a fear of defeat grasping them. There can be but one result. Vote for Jacob Butcher. Remember that any talk the boys are putting up to you is political stuff, pure and simple, nothing else, and you ought to be as wise as the fellow who pours that kind of dope into your ear. Outside of any other reason—and there are many—there remains the big one —that Mr. Butcher is pledged to vote for John W. Kern for United States senator. The Marshall meeting at Fort Wayne Saturday night exceeded any

He drove home point after point in his frank and fearless manner. Allen county will give a majority of 3,500 and the Jwelftih district will re-elect Mr. Cline to congreas. VOTERS. REMEMBER THIS-TO VOTE FOR KERN, YOU MUST VOTE FOR JACOB BUTCHER. THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF TOMORROWS ELECTION. DON'T MAKE A ON THIS IMPORTANT MATTER. The republicans of Pennsylvania are frigntened and are making desperate effort to save the governor of that state which boats a republican majority the equal of Texas’ democratic vote. It’s awful. Vote early tomorrow and we wish we could say often. However, if you vote right once, we will be satisfied. SOCIETY DOINGS Birthday of C. M. Weldy Celebrated With Family Reunion Sunday.
