In spite of this same majority of

350.571 true Democrats who voted

the two parties have had differ-

to get it, l ut the real object of both
parties is the same. All will agree,
that without good men in public

The present situation in state pol-

crisis in state affairs. Ve are threat-

The only obligation with which he
will enter office v ill lie the obliga-

he considers the most serious and

Good Democrats can vote for John
