Salisbury, N. C. May 29, 1918
Enough has been said relative
to the congressional contest in
this district between Walter
Murphy and Hon R L Dough ton.
It is now time to vote" and, just
how to vote is a very important
matter. Mr Dough ton has been
loyal to the people of this district,
has been loyal to his party and
to his country. While the boys
were making a fight tor the im
imgratioh bill, putting flags over
the schools and bibles in them
Mr Doughton was giving his as
sistance and voting right on the
aubjact. Mr Murphy was lend
ing no assistance whatever, but
since patriotism has become
popular he has slipped on a pa
triotic veneer and is trying to
slide into congress thereby.
We feel sure such pretense, and
his speeches for the Red Cross,
which merely to advertise him
self, will not induce our people
to vote for him, but rather for
Mr x Doughton who has been
Steadfast, true and is now much
more capable of rendering the
country a service, when service
is really needed, than it is pos
sible for any new man to do.
This is not the time to play poli
tics or swap horses. Let's give
Doughton every vote possible on
Saturday. It is the best thing
that can be done at this time.
A vote for Doughton will help
win the war, a vote for Murphy
mean doubt and delay.

four Men Killed in ao Explosion Near Wil
mington.
Wilmington, May 28. Four
men were killed and several oth
ers badly scalded late yesterday
at the Little River plant of the
Hammer Lumber Company, 55
miles from here, when a boiler
exploded, wrecking the building
in which it was housed, accord
ing to meager information re
ceived here by officials of the
company today.
The boilers of the mammoth
plant are housed in separate
buildings and the explosion did
not necessitate the closing down
the plant, Letting cold water
into a steam filled boiler was
said to have caused the explo
sion. Because of the plant's iso
lation, details are yet lacking,

had all the symp-

be speedily overcome and the system
restored to normal conditions by this
famous root and herb remedy Lydia E.
