Food * Administrator Pleasants in
forms us that several of our merchants
have been caused to make contribu

profiteering.
It seems impossible for North Caro
lina to hold an election without Marion
Butler figuring in it. He ought to be
chained to the Kaiser and both be
taken care of.
We notice that the Anti-Saloon Lea
gue is seeking^ro find out how all the
nominees stand on the question of pro
hibition. for the influence it .may have
on the election. If the way the whis
key question is being discussed in the
State is any indication the voters will
also be glad to get the same advance
information. But we think it would be
for the opposite purpose.
About the most tireless thing we
h;vt -e:i lit son:, tlx j i.- the discus
<*'ov. ?*?'?f ikev Hy :S:a:c Hoar* of
Health and others. The majority of
the physicians, from a practical stand
point. say whiskey is necessary in the
treatment of many sicknesses, and the
general public in their minds are sure
it is a great help. Since there is so
much benefit to be derived from confi
dence in the treatment, even though it
had no real benficial rsults. why not
give it a trial. Really the more the
question is stirred at this time the
worse it will be for the cause of pro
hibition.
In the death of Mr. Joe O. Green,
of near Franklinton. jhe County and
the State loses one of its best citizens. I
He was one of the .most progresive_and ;
successful farmers of this section an3
always took great interest n any
movement tending to improve farm
conditions. He was a leader in the
Farmers Union in the County, as well
as in his community in all matters
that came up for good. Vis worth to
his country can best be attested by his
nerhbor?* who thought there were none
better than "Joe Green." We lament
his passing realinzin *hat in his going
we havp lost* ofte of tile strongest advo

With 175,000.00 in sight and no tell- j
tag how much covered up the Repub- i
ar? coming into North I'nr- !
olina with a purchase proposition for
the voters of the State. Mr. Voter if
you have any manhood left for Hea
ven's sake exert it now. Show your
contempt for such a suggestion of
rottenness, by casting your ballot for
the Democratic ticket, which has prov
en itself worthy of your support, and
does not ask for your vote on the bas
fa of a money value transaction. You
know what you think of a man who
will sell his vote, they think the same
of the voters of North Carolina or they
would not try to buy their vote. Let
your answer to the dirty ineinuationa
be the biggest Democratic majority
the State has ever cast.

The Local Board wishes to express
great appreciation of the unfaltering
and fearless sejvicq^ of the clerical ,
force, both regularly employed and
volunteer, all of whom came constant-'
ly in contact with persons with in-1
fluenza. There has been under orders
from the War Department no let up
in the drive to complete the classlfica
Uon of the man power of the country.
Dr. Malone, untiring In his efforts to
check the plague as County Health

number of men to examine, and but
for the volunteer aid of Mr. Alex A.
Clifton, who hrj been at h in post al
ways notwithstanding the great expos

going. Mrs. M. E. Williams and MJsi
Annabelle King, volunteer workers,
have been constantly at work in the
Board rooms also. Mrs. Garland Ricks
and Mfs. Dr. Swindell have rcnde;ed
valuable assistance during tLe trying
time also.
