C., May'20, 191S To the citizens of the 35th Sena torial District and Republicans, especially: Having I'egistered as a candi date before the Republican pri- i mary to be held on e 1st, 1918. j •and owing to a serious accident > QJq in which my son was fearfully injured, I have not he. n able to xiV go and see my friends to explain my reason for being in the field, • hence a few reasons: ; I am confident the next - Legis- j lature will be the m' .sE important 1 since '1868. Many questions vviil be acted upon that are of vital • interest to the people of N'oidh . Carolina, among the_ most im- portar.t is the ratification of an • amendment to the Federal Con stitution for national prohibition. . I am absolutely for it. I know : from personal experience whi. key : is the greatest curse of tbe age 5’nd I di=sii-e to take a part as 1 have alway done to I’bmove it' be- vona the reach of mankind. : Should the Constitutional Conven- i tion be called the Legislature will j be convened, in extra-ordinary i session to enact laws to cornply i with tlie amended constitution. And I feel th4t with my past ex perience I could and would safely and honestly guard the peopieT interest. I have alwaps studi ously and carefully considered every measure whother local or general * from a non-partisan standpoint and supported the measure tbat I thought would do the most good for the greatest number of people, regardless of politics. It has been reported by some that Hyatt has served in the Senate and never did anything. In reply to the compliment, I will say that I am no kgo, just humble Jim Hyatt, but n^y record is a matter of history as a public ser vant. I might change in a few minor points if I had it_to do over again, but as a whole i have no apologies to make for the course which I pursued. If those who are inclined to ciiticise -will only examanine the Senate Journals for 1897 and 1911 you will find in the record the position I took on all local and general ques tions. Then if you don’t_ under stand the reason, 1 will take pleasure in exnlaming. So it is not for-money or that I may gain any special honor, im prove myself intell. ctually or evade any d ity 'I dwe'mj^ cSiifitTY that 1 want to be a member of the next General Assembly’, but in this the most trying times in the history of our country and the wovld I offer my service to the State with all my past experience • to help my bit toward guiding her safely through the storm. So my friends, I leave it with you to accept or reject. Yours for service,- JaS. L. HYATT. e Pay lo Income Tax THE GOODS ARE HERE Ordinarily this -^vouMn’l be a matter to boast of, but we are proud of the distinction, because We'Seli Groceries at Such Small Profit Every man should, ih this crisis, do his “bit” to for ward the cause. We are doing out “bit” by selling -our friends and''customers the best Groceries at the VERY LOVvEST TRICES FOR WMICH THEY CAN BE HANDLED. This policy may de)>rive us of some luxuries, an'd cut the Govovr.r,-.cnt out oi a little tax that it would receive if we were selling at the usual profits. But it will enable yo'.r to mvOi Aiur obligations and perhaps save enough to buy some b-fads or certificates,- Don't bebnmbugged and think you have to p'ay jukt raiy Old pi le.! because it is asked.
