The appeal will be mnidu to every one of the 140,000 vot ers in the state to give as much as one dollar to help carry on the flght for the rule of Democratic principles throughout the country. "South Carolinians are enjoying a period of unusual prosperity and there is not a member of the party in the state who can not afford to give as much as one dollar to help carry on much as one dollar. Of course if good Democrats desire to contributo more than.a dollar no effort will be made to stop the gifts. However one dol lar -will' place Democrats in just as -Ngood statiding in the campaign as a thousand dollars. "There is every indication that Cox /Aandl loosevelt will sweoo the couna try.
