In view i * be arbi trary, unjust and partizan rulings of Reed and tho republican It aders, it is highly essential that our rep.' e8cn fo- tive should go to Washington b.vcked by a rousing big majority. It ha® developed, lonly within tho past days, that Turner is to have oppos.’- tion. Every true democrat in Thom- 1 as county should turn out and vote. Give ono day, or a part of it, to the cause of good government. Thomas county democrats have never in the past failed to do their doty; nnd they should not fail now. It will not do to say, “0, Turner will be cleoted anyhow.” There is dsnger in th is course, and most serious dan ger.

A man owes something to his home find his government, and he should be willing to tum out and vote. In union there is strength. A few men cannot carry an election. Thomas county can, and should, give Tuiner the largest majority of any county in the district. Let us do it. Apathy is the only danger ahead of us. This should bo overcome. Self-confidence is a good thing, but when it keeps a voter away from the polls, it is a bad thing.
