We believe that every Democrat in Clark county will far ms out in the statement that Mr. Voigt has probably driven more of his time and means to tho cause of Democracy than any other man in this district, and from purely unselfish motives. He has been in politics not for self airrandizement, but form motives of loyalty to the foundation principles of an honest and honored Democracy. In the campaign of 1906, when factional trouble had rnt the Democracy of the Third district in twain, and ti election of a Democratic Congressman had been r-u-ed in jeonardv. it was the nersonal anneals and hnrd

wtk of Mr. Voigt that brought Clark county un smilinir with an old-fashioned Democratic majority for Mr. ( and saved a Democratic Congressman to Indiana; i m face of the fact, too, that Clark county had been the i' .i'iing county for Mr. Cox's opponent in that unhappy -'"upe.
