It's a difficult job to make a man vote a tgx on himself. Even money is now being posted that Pennsylvania will go democratic this year. It looks like Wilson and Marshall by acclamation. And there were those a few years ago who said the democratic party was on the rocks. ■ ■= The ccunty central committee held a meeting tils mornins »t which lime plans were discussed for conducting the campaign. Under County Chairman Bosse there will be po let up in the work, it being the desire to give a larger democratic ma- ’ jority than ever. Let's put up a new record this year, say 2,000. October 14th is the date lor tbe ‘Old Home Week' in Decatur. .t , will !e the banner occasion ot this' i old city, marking the seventy-sixth ■ birthday of Decatur town. The man- j agerg will make every effort to give the people the best week's entertain- j ment they ever had and you should ; help. Write at once to your Triends ' and tell them about it. The Chicago Tribune is the leading republican newspaper of the middle wept. It sayg the following of the democratic candidate for president: I U ’ the ncinination of Governor Woodrow Wilson the democratic party has placed at the head of,lts ticket its most promising leader and its. * ' -“-I—strongest candidate. Governor Wil-, rtpn represents intelligent progressiv- j ism within his party, a progressivism ' which found successful expression at Baltimore, though it failed at Chicago. He is a man of high personal character, of distinguished .intellectual attainments, and brief but brilliant political record. He is, moreover, in sympathy with the nationwide movement to overthrow the alliance between professional politics and organized money, which is the most important factor in American public life today. Fought bitterly by plutocrats, reactionaries and bosses, and made, mere recently, the victim of a campaign of misrepresentation ami journalistinc demagogy, he has grown steadily in public tavor and confidence. The democratic party is to be congratulated upon the choice of Governor Wilson. FOR SALE —Six volume set of encyclopedias; good as new.
