J : '? * Wednesday; October 31, 1834 THE ELECTION Yes, there will be an election held on next Tuesday, Nov. 6th, and this I*.' - County will take part in it. As a matter of fact you would never know it from talking with the folks, you never hear it mentioned. Several State officers, candidly we do not recall just how many, will be voted for, also a Congressman, solicitor and all of the County officers. This County is so overwhelmingly De mocratic that UtUe Interest is felt In the general election, only the primary 'creates an Interest. Of course, the County will, g o Demo cratic as usual, and we will send Mr. H. L. Harris to represent lis In the next legislature. However, we regret so little has been said or heard about the elc ticn, for it is very important we let the woyld know we are standing loyally behind our President in his New Deal. That the New Deal has lost nftne of its popularity is gen erally admitted, though a recent poll by'tbe Literary Digest, seem to indicate that' It was on the wane. Pew realize what the present Na tional Administration has meant to Mr. ^Average Man; until the time Mr. Roosevelt took charge said av erage man had had little considera tion, and the farming man had lust, about seen the last ray of hope de part, but not so today. The most prosperous man of today Is 'the farmer, especially the Southern farmer, and he owes it all to the wisdom of Mr. Roosevelt. The bank ers may hate him, and many of them do, but every farmer should love him with undying devotion, for he has liberated them. So let's every one go to the polls Tuesday and east our vote for men who will help carry on with the New Deal, and continue^ the prosperity which we are nowl,enjoying . \ WORTH ITS COST In another column will be found an article^ heade^l "Story of what ihe New Deal has done." It shows what was accomplished in this County for one of the unfortunate ones during the depression and is a mighty fine illustration of tvhat the New Deal was Intended to do, and where carried out according to instructions what It has done for one fanjily right here in our midst. Of course, here as everywhere, gome I have abused this manner of charity,! but it- was through no fault of those in charge, simply because they were deceived; however, this illustration alone is worth much, for it has taken one of the down-and outs and made a self-respecting man. and family. We expect many illustrations of this kind could be found in the County, probably not so marked, but still, several who in the near future will own their own little piec of land and lee 1 that they are in deed citizens and Will be in teres te I in education and everything lookin , to the- good at the County. I - ? o-^ "We admire the Kistler famil more than ever. When Ed and hi bride were killed in Morganton lai Sunday ip an airplane crash, th family requested all who would sen flowers as a tribute to them, mak out checks instead to the Sout Mountain Institute, an organizatio that cares for destitute childrei The Kistlers were great friends c the underprivileged children " The above is from the Clevelan Star of Shelby, and we are wonder ing how many checks the Sout Mountain Institute received. Funn; but folks will spend their last do) lar, eyen buy on credit, flowers wit which to decorate graves of th dead, but not even destitute chil dren appeal to them. -? f?o Notwithstanding the hundreds c times we Have stated we could nc publish communications unless w [knew who were the authors, the still come In.
