An additional fact or two may serve to convince you of the importance We Republicans attach to the considerations herein named. A carefully prepared list (prepared by our Township Assesors.) shows that our County has sent about 1800 volunteers to the service. Previous to present enlistments, more than ¾ of whom were Republicans for instance, One Township sent 70 men only 3. were Democrats. Another sent 60, 2 of which only Democrats. And a very large majority of those no enlisting are Repubs. Our people have put the pressure on the old ex Gov for the express purpose of getting that class of men enlisted, They are men who will not enlist under Smith or Harding or anyone else, but on the Contrary unless drawn in by <hr /> the Gov & his Dem friends will hinder every one else from going they have power to influence. Further Argument certainly can not be needed. I hope you will see the importance of giving it your immediate & earnest attention.
