Joart) |U31or ot ^oarBal-Patrlot: Hiere are In this campaign sev- *abl«et« which I would like hik write on, but I am going to ifteoM sportsmanship or lack of •portamanshlp, would be more ■ppMf able. Brnnetlme ago a friend of mine Iwd a fine young registered ktmnd about fourteen montha old ^a fox-chase In competition with older dogs and dogs that knew tke land they were running on •ad had all the advantages of the pup; but from ihe beginning Qrey-Boy, for that is his name, was outrunning. For about four hours the chase continued with Orey-Boy strewing the other hounds all through the moun tains. The hunters were scatter ed out at different places where the hounds would cross. Sudden ly the owner of Grey-Boy noticed S^. WILLIAMS MOTOR CO. TELEPHONE SS4-J T. H. WUliaas. Owner ^damobile Sales-Service Bear Frame Service and Wheel Alignment General Auto Repairing Wrecker Service—Electric and Acetylene Welding USED PARTS—For aO makea and models of cars and trucks and let Grey-Boy go, but -he ^d not lead any more that ct^t- This writer saW the dog Sfe't morning and Ms leg was swollpn « tk^gh .he had been sngke^ iltten, also, his toes were worn to. the flesh and the top of hla foot had the hide dragged -off ffom running on after he was hobbled, when he could not bring his foot forward or lift it up. Hie leg kept on swelling and the sec ond day after the chase the own er, on close examination, found a small copper wire had been first tied around Ws leg and complete ly hidden In the flesh and the string tied over the wide. Today, Grey-Boy has a scar all around his leg to bear witness to this fact. I know that all real sportsmen will agree with me that any man or group of men guilty of this crime, for It is nothing lees than a crime, should not be allowed in the fields or woods with a dog or gun. Two years ago, the two politi cal parties entered Into a race to ree who should govern Wilkes county tor the next two years. The Republicans won all the county offices except the sheriff’s office. That race was like the fox chase that Grey-Boy was In; the Democrats had all the advant ages. To quote, one of the lead ing Democrats of the county, the next morning after the election, said. “I am through with politics in Wilkes county. We had every thing, the schools, the roads and the WPA. and then got beat.” Then a small group of men. not representative of the real Demo cratic iparty and as selfish as any of the dictators of Europe are today, solicited outside help and passed over the protest of oqv duly elected representatives, which we had elected, under han- Liberty |Monday-Tuesday ooaotlea htTOi th« soeonlv to t*k* jitll from the commissioners aod^igi^ng It to the sheriff op a fee basis; and third, but' not le^, the bin known as the coun ty districting bill, to redlstrict the county, hoping thereby- to elect two Democratic commission ers, denying us the right of a ma jority rule which we Inherited from the battle fields of Guilford Courthouse and Kings Mountain. There are those of us that point with pride to our grandparents and the sacrifice they made at Guilford Courthouse and at Kings Mountain, In ordey,that we might have government of the people, by the people and for the people. And are we, regardless of par ty affiliations, going to let slip from us Into the hands of a few men who have proven themselvee as selfish as Hitler or Mussolini the control of our county govera- ment? At present, we are draft ing men to the army in prepara tion to defend our democracy from the dangers ot the European dictators. Since the election laws are In terpreted In such ways as to give the machine democrats here in North Carolina the most advant ages and there is no way of cor recting a wrong In politics after it has happened, provldeu the right one wins, our only chance Is to prevent it from happening. Let’s give Democracy a big boost here-in old Wilkes next Tuesday and then we can see clearly how to fight the dictators of Europe it we are threatened by them. I appeal to every liber ty-loving voter in Wilkes county not to let a few men who have proven biy their acte that they are as void of any sportsmanship as the men who tied the wire a- round Grey-Boy’s^ leg to have con trol of our county. Grey-Boy kept running after he was hobbl^: let’s not lose this election be cause we know they have every thing except the votes. p. V. TURNER.
