ASSOCIATED PRESS 7 DISPATCHES VOLUME XXVI PROBLEM MOW IS TO GET OUT THE VOTE TOMORROW Will Present Enthusiasm Be Sufficient to Make the Democrats Go to the Polls Tomorrow? THE REPUBLICANS ALWAYS GO OUT If the Democrats Work Half as Hard as the Re publicans, a Great Vic tory is Theirs. Tribuno Bureau Sir Walter Hotel ! By 4. C. BASKRRVILL Ilnleigh, Oct. 30.—With the cam- j vaigii virtually ended and i>olitioal an- j thusinsin at a satisfactory pitch. in fnct. Is-tter than was expected, but I on<> thing remains to worry the Demo-j rr'lic leaders. And that is Hie prob lem of getting out the vote! .Will J the present enthusiasm and the en thusiasm of the past week be sufficient] to impel nJI the Demoeratie voters t»] ro to the polls ami vote on Tuesday? And if John Dawson and his lieu tenants only knew the answer to this question, they would be satisfied. For its well known from many years of past experience that one thing that the Republican voters do is to get out their vote almost 100 per cent., de spite the fact that in most eases thpre is little likelihood of winning. Just j ns one of the county political lenders i told Governor McLean in one of the j towns visited during his speaking tour! the past week: “The Republicans arc I organized and arc at work every day. | They are making n house-to-house, j fnrm-to-fnrm canvass of the voters of' the county. If the Democrats would get out and work half as hard there would be no doubt about a Democrat ic vietory. But many of them are only half interested, and are not do ing the t>ersonn! work that they should. ' So it is that much of the situation is doubtful. - ' And this is not n situation eommou to but one section, lint to many of the sections of the state, with the re sult that Democratic headquarters is somewhat 'jrtftfjed'.at the outlook.. The final analysis,' of ™Jlls", ppt alarming as tar as tlp-fnriW sth te' iii ‘ coiH-ernhff” "*WWe ' will probably be about fifteen coun ties that' will go Republican. These are counties that have been going Re publintp for yegrx and year, and noth ing else is looked for. Tet in a num ber of these counties, such as Chath am, Randolph and McDowell counties there is a goodly amount of dissat isfaction with the manner in which the county government has been car ried on by the Republicans, and there is a possibility for n change to Dem ocratic control, provided all the Dem ocrats vote. Then there are in addition about twenty more counties which are in the "doubtful” list, in which anything | may happen, and which the Republi cans are claiming, but which from all indications at present, will very prob ably go Democratic, provided a ma jority of the Democrats that are reg istered vote. Buncombe county Dem ocrats arc expending no trouble in putting the county over in good styft, and many of the political leaders ip Buncombe are predicting that Madi son and even Haywood county have an excellent change to go into the Dem ocratic column this time. Both the governor and the only liv ing former governor nssailed the pal try policies and tawdry claims of the Republicans leaders of the state, hold ing up in comparison the record of 25 years of Democratic administra tions and the progress of the state made under them. And other speak ers of equal note— Max Gardner, the next governor: Joseph utfj Daniels and others told their hearers almost the same thing. It has not been a cam paign of mad-siinging and vitupera tive personal attacks. It has been a campaign based solely upon hard, cold logic and calm common senae, in which the speaker* have presented the record of the Democratic party, shown what it has done for the peo ple of the state as a whole and then asked the people to continue to main tain that party in power which has the welfare of the entire people ant the progress of- the state as a whole at heart. And the response has been electrical. It is not necessary to argue with North Carolinians to make them realise a good thing when they, see it. Former Governor Morrison, afttr speaking in Waynes rille Saturday night, will bring the campaign to a close in Mecklenburg county, his home county, tonight at a big rally in county Charlotte. Governor McLean, after speaking twice in Johnston oun ty, a hotly contested county, on Sat-, lirday, goes to his home county of Robeson Monday where he will wind up bis campaign that night. Bayard Clnrk will speak in Erwin, Harnett county. Monday night while Josegihus Daniels will be the featured speaker the same night at a large political rally for all of Forsyth county in Winston-Salem. All of which goes to show as was said at the beginning, the big ques tion and major problem is that of get ting out the tote. Miss Mary Belie Cannon, Halbert Webb. Edward Morris and Z. A.
