On Monday night we mailed our last remittance to Democratic national headquarters, this last remittance covering contribu tion io u.t ii.out. i Ol a his brings the amount contributed tnrou2h TheRobesonian to$76.o0. We wish the amount had been arger, but we trust that little will do much good. When the city fathers are con sidering what they shall do for the general good of the town might they not with propriety giv- some attention to this un sightly nuisance of hanging goods out in front of the s rts, of ad vertisements hanging sometimes so as to be in the way of passers along the streets? This is carried here to an extent that is nothing short of a nuisance. There are days when the principal business street of Lumberton looks for all the world like a cheap, second hand-goods-store street in a city Consider the effect these things have uDon one. If you are at all given to introspection, consid' er the effect upon your own mind some day when you are walking alone the streets and see a mot ley assortment of goods hang ing to the breeze in front o: some stores, goods on the side walks and hideous signs in flam ing colors shrieking for atten tionconsider the effect on your own mind, and you've got the answer. We certainly hope the city fathers will think on these things. The people of Robeson are hav ing to wait a long time for their new court house. The contract called for the completion of the work by June 1st, and the pros pects are that it will not be ready for use until the first of Lhe year. We hope that Senator F. U Simmons will be given a good crowd when he speaks here Sat day at noon. The people here abouts have had the opportunity of hearing some mighty good speakers during the campaign now drawing to a close and in these latter days they have grown somewhat unenthusiastic, perhaps, about attending, but this is about the last notable speaker who will visit these parts before the election and Senator Simmons is a campaign er of no mean ability. All who can should take advantage of the opportunity to hear him. He will tell you some things it will do you good to hear, depend upon it, ana win give you food for thought. The splendid work he did as captain of the forces that wrest ed the control of the State from the malodorous fusion crowd will never be forgotten. We shall be glad to welcome him to Lumberton and hear him dis cuss the issues of this campaign. The organization which has been formed for the relief of the unfor tunate members of the communi ty who are in need of help will doubtless receive the hearty sup port which it merits. Frequent calls are made for help and those who willingly contribute all they are able are no doubt often im posed upon. Through an organ ized board proper investigation will be made of every case and those who give may feel sure that their money is being used where it will do the most good, We are glad to note that an or ganization with this worthy pur pose has been perfected. Closing Scenes of the County Campaign A Clean Cam-1 paign Throughout The closing scene of the coun ty campaign was witnessed by a goodly crowd at Buies Monday and, though the last act it was, it had its interesting features as well as did the first. The prin cipal speeches of the day were made by Messrs. D. P. Shaw, S. A. Edmund, M. Shepherd and W. H. Kinlaw. Mr. Shaw spoke first and made a good speech. Then came Mr. Edmund, who spoke for one and a half hours. This was Mr. Edmund's first ap pearance on the campaign since he spoke at Back Swamp in the beginning of the go-round. Since that time he has been sick and unable to go out; and though he was not well Monday, he made a speech that few well men can beat. Messrs. Shep herd and Kinlaw wound the the thing up, Mr. Kinlaw having the last go. Both made good speeches. But that isn't all that happened. You see, there was a pretty good crowd out at Buies, all to hear the political speaking, you know, witness the happen ings, etc. Several of the boys who were musically inclined got together and decided that it might be well to close the exer cises with a song and who would find fault with that so they se lected a song commonly used in the winding up of affairs and then opened wide their mouths. ! Oh, how the music did flow! But just here is where things got mixed up. You see, Mr. Kinlaw wasn t exactly through speaking when the mu sic started, and of course the boys didn't want to stop singing right in the middle of a verse, so that is just the way things were. Mr. Kinlaw decided that his speech and the music were not harmonizing, so he moved off to other parts and finished up his speech; and the boys sang all four stanzas. Sure enough, Monday did wind up the campaign and there is hardly any question but that all the candidates are glad yes, and The Robesonian man and Prof. Norris, too. The professor has certainly been faithful. He didn't miss a single appointment and has got two or three books jotted full of notes; and there is no reason why he should not be able to give some political fore cast: see the professor for infor mation. rr . i ine campaign just closed was perhaps the cleanest that the county has ever had. There was no mud slinging or anything of the kind during the entire can. vass. A olav entitled "Maidens All Forlorn" was given in the college auditorium Monday evening by the senior class. The entertain ment was fine and greatly enjoy ed by all. There was a reception in the conservatory hall after the Dlav and ice cream and cake were sold. A neat sum was taken in. Mrs. W. H. MeKinnon and Mrs. Jim McPhail were summon ed by telegram to Fayett. Monday to attend the bedsiue o. Miss Mattie MeKinnon, who ya taken suddenly ill early Monday morning. A message was receiv ed here later Monday that Miss MeKinnon was dead, the cause being apoplexy. Mrs. Lea, of Greensboro, visit ed her daughter. Miss Annie, at the college a few days this week. Messrs. Ernest Whitaker and Hugh Barnes, of Maxton, spent Sunday here with friends. Mrs. W. H. Sikes and niece, Miss Myrtle Rodwell, left Mon day tor Aberdeen to visit Mr. and Mrs. Clifton Blue. Mrs. Sikes ana miss rcouweu expect to leave Aberdeen the latter part of this week for Florala, A!a., where they will visit for several weeks. Miss Bessie Sikes win board in the college during her mother s absence. Dr. J. L. McMillan and wife returned Friday frm Jackson ville and Sanford, Fla., where they spent a few days last week. Mr. Henry McLeod spent Sun day with friends in Laurinburg. Dr. and Mrs. B. F. McMillan have returned from a visit to relatives and friends in Florida and Alabama. Red Springs, N. C, Oct. 28, '08.

In 1900 Robeson's vote for Governor Aycock was 4,100, which gave the county 27 votes in the State convention; in 1904 the county's vote for Gov ernor Glenn was 2,449, which re duced the vote in the State con vention to 16. What will be the vote this year? Robeson ought to have more strength in con ventions than its vote in 1904 gave it. It is up to Democrats to make that strength greater.
