greatest prosperity since he can re
member. Last year was an unusually
good one for tobacco growers he says
and today there are buildings costing
over a quarter of a million dollars
either In course of construction or for
which plans are being drawn.
"I cannot remember when my sec
tion of the state was as prosperous as
It is today," said Mr. LaRoque. "Con
tracts for or plans are being drawn
for buildings In Kinston alone that
will run over a quarter of a million
dollars. Besides that the entire com
munity Is enjoying a great wave of
prosperity. Last year was an unusual
ly good season for tobacco growers
and in fact for most every one."
Mr. LaRoque said Capt. J. D.
Brown, of the Kinston national guard,
had received orders to recruit his
company up to the full war quota,
and prepare for Immediate service in
the field. He declared that several
hundred more than the allotment al

mending Doan's Kidney Pills, I hope
that I may be helping other persona
who suffer from kidney trouble. My
system seemed to have too much urio
acid In it and I felt that I needed a
kidney medicine. Doan's Kidney Pills
were recommended to me and I got a
supply at Smith's drug store. After
using them, I felt much better In every
way."

On February 17, 1912, Mr. Arthur
added: "I am pleased to confirm all I
said some years ago recommending
Doan's Kidney Pills. They helped me
after everything else had failed."

To the democracy of the Tenth Con
gressional district:
Following party usage, your con
vention to choose a candidate for
congress will assemble at a suitable
time and place and I shall then offer
to serve the party in that capacity.
In deciding upon this step, truth
and candor will not permit me to give
as a reason or plead as an excuse the
not to be resisted solicitations of
friends, still, I am not acting without
the counsel and encouragement of a
respectable number of tried and true
members of the party, in whom I
huve the utmost confidence, and for
whose judgment and opinion I enter
tain the highest respect. Besides, I am
a democrat. 1 have been a member of
the party for forty-live years, and all
those years 1 have lived and voted
with my fellow democrats of this con
gressional district. I have never
sought public office, and it is not my
purpose to become an office seeker
at this late day in my life. I possess
the qualifications for a member of
the house of representatives, pre
scribed by the constitution and laws
of the United States, and in making
this tender of service to the democracy
of this congressional district, 1 am
only 'exercising a privilege that be
longs to and may be exercised by
every member of the party similarly
qualified. I pretend to no claims su
perior to the claims of others. I
simply make this public announce
ment: That if the party's convention
shall honor me with Its nomination, I
will accept It, and devote whatever
of ability and energy I possess, not
only to the securing of the party's suc
cess at the polls, but to the support
of the splendid democratic adminis
tration of the great government of
this great republic.
Although 1 have not been active in
politics for several years, yet I have
not been inattentive to passing poli
tical events, and I have no hesitancy
In saying that, In my Judgment, 'he
democracy of this country have never
had greater reason to be proud of
their achievements than at this parti
cular stage of their party's existence.
If I were a member of the present
congress, with my present Impressions
and convictions, I would cheerfully
Indorse the present administration
and the congress in all that has been
done since the 4th of March, 1918,
and support all measures for the wel
fare of the people, now under consid
eration.
I regret that, owing to engagements
I was not at liberty to postpone or
neglect, I have not had the opportun
ity of meeting with many of the vot
ers, but I have the honor and pleasure
of a personal acquaintance with a
large number of them, and reason to
hope and believe that I am not alto
gether unknown to most of those
whose acquaintance I have never had
the good fortune to make.
I have entire confidence In the
wisdom of the party and do not doubt
that that wisdom will be fairly and
fully represented In the convention,
and If, In making a selection for Its
standard bearer, In the approaching
campaign. He choice shall not fall on
me, I will, at once, put away all feel
ing of disappointment that might
arise, and cheerfully bow to the Judg
ment of the convention. My loyalty
to the party has never wavered, or
been diminished by adverafty or de
feat, or any other thing, and I will
till continue to serve its Interests at
the ballot box.
The other names, to be presented to
the convention, are men who are
democrats, for whom I feel the kind
est regard, and If the convention shall
nominate one of them, or some other
democrat, he will receive my cordial
and constant support until (he Tot
ing, In November, la over.
I shall hare so many demands up
on ray time between now and the
first of July, demands that I am un
der obligations to meet, that It will
be practically Impossible for me to
give attention to politic prior to the
date mentioned My friends will make
arrangement to afford voter, who
may wlah to vote for me, at the prl
maiiea, an opportunity to do an. both
In this county (Hunrombe) and la
Haywood county, and In ny other
county, In which a "primary" may be
held.
