C., Thursday, November 29, 1931 TOBACCO CROP IS WELL SOLD JOHN TAYLOR SJIOI'LD Hi: KEPT IX AS LONG AS IIIZ CAN WIN THIS IS Tin: VIEW OF KING CORRES PONDENT. King, November 23. More than three-fourths of the tobacco crop is sold in this section, and people are looking ! forward t» signing up 100 poi cent, for reduction. They are well pleased with what Franklin D Roosevelt has done for them. A good wheat crop has been sowed, and now everybody i.s fixing to slaughter porkers for Thanksgiving and Christmas. There is more hog and hominy in Yadkin township than has been the case for many years. Well, the eleeti|>n is over, am* several of our citizens are expect ing to go to Danbury to see i.he officers sworn in for anothe; year. I see that John Taylor i elected again with the largest majority as usual. Our Republican friends made a powerful fight against him, and a few sore- Democrats. I say keep John Tay lor in. He has showed he can beat them every time. The Democratic party will be a fool to swap off a good horse. Keep him in for life time as long as he can win. I don't care if a few sore Demo crats are dissatisfied. And we ex pect the Republicans to want to get him out. Keep him in as long as he can beat the Republicans and hold the party together like nobody else can. I say, hurrah for our Sheriff who can beat them every time. CLOD KNOCKER.
