Read the experience of Mr. J. M. McGalliard, Sterling St. He says: "I suffered from weak kidneys for several years, along with a dull ache across the small of my back. I didn't seem to have much strength and the kidney secretions were unnatural. h inally I went to the Burke Drug Co and got a box of Doan's Kidney Pills' They strengthened my kidneys and gave me relief in every way." (State ment given January 17, 1908.) OVER SIX YEARS LATER Mr. McGalliard said: "Doan's Kidney Fills so greatly benefitted my kid neys that I have had no kidney trouble for years." Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that Mr. McGalliard had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y.

To the Editor of The News-Herald: Please publish in next issue of your paper that the report now being cir culated in Burke county that I do not live in the county is not true. I have lived and voted in Burke county for seventeen years. Yours truly, J. H. HYAMS. GREENE REPLIES TO NEWELL'S CIRCULAR LETTER. To the Voters of the Ninth Con gressional District: 1 notice that Mr. Newell is sending a circular letter over the district call ing upon the Voters to support him in the primary, stating that he can be elected this fair and that I cannot be elected. If we are to judge the fu ture by the past we would at once come to the conclusion that Mr. New ell could not win; but I wont say that. He might win, but I say to the voters of the district that I stand a much better chance of winning. I speak this advisedly. I have been over the dis trict and I think I know the sentiment in the district. Mr. Newell prefaces his letter by saying that he is opposed to the pri mary, and that the Democrats are re sponsible, for it. Mr. Newell is re sponsible for this congressional pri mary. He can't deny this. For at the Congressional Convention I in sisted that we avoid the wrangle in the primary by agreeing to let the delegates assembled say who the nom inee should be. The delegates were in attendance from every county. Mr. Newell would not agree to nominate a candidate in the usual way, but de manded the primary, and he, together with the Democratic law, has forced me into this primary. The people know the facts, and in Mr. NewelFs circular letter he very studiously conceals the facts. He tells us in his letter that he has done a great deal of work for us since he came to the party. Others of us have been working for the party be fore we were old enough to vote. I never knew anything politically speaking, but Republicanism. We all consider it an honor to work for our party. The Republican party doesn't depend on any one man. That party will live if Mr. Newell and I were both eliminated. No one man is whol ly responsible for Republican gains. Now, I don't want to make this let ter too long, but I want to say that I will serve my party wherever it calls. Many of the voters all over the dis trict have asked me to run for Con gress and I have this right. It is also ! a right Mr. Newell has, notwithstand-! ing the fact that he has been de-! feated twice. I feel that I am en-; titled to the nomination for reasons j of which the voters know. Mr. New- i ell claims that he can get certain sup- I port in Mecklenburg county. We have i heard of these claims and promises i before. Doesn't it stand to reason that if the men of whom he speaks will help him, they will help me ? If they want a Republican they know I am one of long standing. Why wouldn't they give me the support thev would cive Mr. NewelU His own people would! give me better support. I have been i torn tnis oy his own people high up in the party. Mr. Voter, think the proposition over and mark a cross in the square before my name on the ticket, give me your support, and after the nomi nation we will organize and try to ! carry tne district. The mountain part of the district ought to be recognized and I believe the voters cf the district will do it. Sincerely, CHAS. E. GREENE. Bakersville, N. C, May 29, 1916. D. L. BOYD, Democratic Candidate for Corporation Commissioner of North Carolina. D. L.

To the Voters of Burke County: At the solicitation of many friends from different parts of the county I have consented to allow my name to go before the Democratic primaries on June 3rd for the House of Repre sentatives. I have delayed making this announcement to this late day hoping thereby that some one else representing a united democracy might offer. I consider the success of the Democratic ticket paramount to any local differences there may be in the party and shall loyally support any man- on the ticket from constable to President. I take it from those who have called on me to enter this race there is some strength behind the movement and I have no reason to believe I am any weaker today with the people than in 1896 when I defeated one of the strongest men the Republican and Populist parties had. Gentlemen, the matter is before you on Saturday, June 3rd. Take the case. Respectfully, JNO. H. PEARSON. FOR REGISTER OF DEEDS.

ANNOUNCEMENT. To the Republican Voters of the 9th Congressional District: The undersigned hereby announces himself as a candidate for the Repub lican nomination for Congress in this district, subject to the action of the Primary to be held on June 3rd, 1916. The undersigned asks for the sup port of the Republican voters of the district, and all others voters who pro pose at the coming election to vote for protection and prosperity. I ask your support on the grounds that the west ern end of the district has had the nomination but one time since the dis trict was formed, the nomination hav ing gone to Charlotte a number of times, and upon the ground that a ma jority of the delegates at the Newton convention were in favor of nominat ing me, and upon the further ground that if a man is nominated from the west end of the district it will stir the mountain Republicans, and the moun tain counties will go their limit in the oncoming fight. This is an appeal to every Republican and every other voter in the district who expects to support Republican policies this fall. Your support in this contest will be greatly appreciated.
