Par Six THE ASHEBORO OOURIEB, ASHEBORa N.C. THURSDAY, JVXE 22, 1SZT PROMINENT IREDELL COUNTY CITIZEN WRITES ABOUT ZEBYANCE LONG Mr. Editor: It is quite a compliment to our Ire dell fellow-citizen, Mr. Ztb. Vance Long, that he has won the Democratic nomination for solicitor in this district practically without a contest; mat by common consent the Democrats of the district accepted him as their candi date for the high and honorable and vitally important position of state's prosecuting attorney. As a fellow-townsmen of Mr. Louk and one who has known him inti mately since he came to the oar about twenty years ago, I ask the privilege of saying to the Democrats cf the district, not only, but to the entire citizenship, that this confidence in Mr. Long has not been misplaced. The tribute is deserved; and if chosen so licitor by the voters in November, as I am sure he will be, I have no hesi tation in giving assurance that he Trill meet public expectation in the discharge of the duties of the office. For twenty years or more Mr. Long, S native of Iredell, has practiced law in Statesville. In addition to the practice of his profession he has held, and faithfully discharged a number cf public trusts. He was elected to the state senate when quite :i young man, was three times re-elected and could have continued in that position had he asked it. Twice during his service in the senate he filled the high and important position of chairman of the appropriations committee; and as the head of this most important committee, he rendered the state faithful service and discharged the du ties most acceptably. It goes without saying that evidence of ability, ca pacity and leadership is necessary to win a place like that in a legislative body and hold it. This is cited as evidence of Mr. Long's' successful and acceptable public service in a legisla tive capacity. From the party stand point, it can be said that Mr. Long has rendered conspicuous service to his party and well deserves reward at the hands of his party. But it is as a lawyer and a man who will ren der faithful service to all the people as a public servant, that I desire es pecially to present Mr. Long to the voters of this judicial district. As a lawyer Mr. Long ranks among the first at the Statesville bar, and it can be accepted without question that he has the legal abiliy to suc cessfully fill the office of solicitor. Not only that, he is honest and fear less in the discharge of a trust. It is not infrequent that lawyers become so habituated to appearing on the de fense side of the criminal docket that they get the feeling that nobody should be punished for anything; or at least their sympathy is usually with the defendant, as a matter of habit. It is unnecessary to say that a lawyer of that habit of mind is not fitted for a prosecuting attorney. He would always be considering ways to let the defendants off. Mr. Long5 has appeared on both sides of the docket in his practice and has appeared for the prosecution in a number of im portant homicide cases. He has not only had experience as a prosecutor, but it can be said for him that neither as a habit of practice, or in any other respect, is he in sympathy with those w-Ki ,,!-, t V. i u UA Mn U .1 " " " . i w , . . n wic taw. lie can uc- pended on to prosecute, honestly and fearlessly, all offences against the law. He is neither unreasonable nor cruel; on the contrary, he is a kind hearted man. But he has the cour age to do his duty as he sees it and law violators will not secure leniency at his hands through either fear, fa ror, affection or indifference. Jn addition to thepe qualities which so well fit him for the office to which he aspires, Mr. Longr is a plain democratic citjzen. He is one of the eot: liiuDjicriiy nor mttn place turn his Maul W WVt Jiuraweot citlaen in the district can fit all times ) assured of a patient and sympa thetic hearing and courteous treat ment at his hands. He will tolerate no abuse of privilege, and neither per sonal nor official influence, nor "pull will count with him in the discharge of his duty. But as a just man, as well as a public prosecutor, he will seek to serve the ends of justice as well as convict and punish the iruilty. Respectfully, P. M. C DAVIDSON, Statesville, N. O, June 12.

A rectifier also is said to possess unidirectional conductivity, meaning, of course, that It will conduct electricity In one dl- dltlon of the grid circuit 1-3-K U Tkt battery in the grid circuit Is called the T battery. As a start let us suppose that T" battery voltage Is xero. The opera tion of the three electrode rube would then be exactly like that of a two-o.ee-trocie tune, Just as though there were no grid. Like a two-electrode tube when the filament C-D Is brought to incandescence by the "A" battery a steady stream of electrons will Je giv en off, which will be drawn over to the plate K. Plate E Is maintained at a positive ixitential with respect to the filament by the "B" battery. Now if the grid is made positive with respect to the filament. It Is pos sible to accelerate the flow of the elec tron stream from the filament to the plate; If the grid is made negative with respect to the filament, the flow of the electron stream from the fila ment to the plate will be retarded. Or In other words, by making the grid positive or negative with respect to the filament, it Is possible to Increase or counteract the space charge. The third electrode or grid thus offers a means of controlling the current In the S HI 2 rection only. Its ability to rectify cur rents of extremely high frequency de termines its application in radio. Due to Its ability to rectify high fre quency alternating currents the two element (filament and pTute) vacuum tube can be used in a radio receiver as a detector. Fig. VI Is a simple radio receiving circuit employing this type of two-element vacuum tube In place of a crystal detector. Dr. J. A. Fleming of London, Eng land, was the first to use a two-element tube of the type Just described as a medium of rectifying high fre quency radio currents. Fleming called his product a valve because It would let current flow In one direction but not In the other direction. The Flem ing valve as a forerunner of the vacu- plate circuit without changing the plate potential or the filament temper ature. The characteristic curve of a three electrode vacuum tube Is shown in Fig. VIII. This diagram shows the relation of grid potential to plate current, assuming that the filament temperature and plate voltage remain constant. It can be seen from the curve that by applying a negative potential of value E to the grid, the plate cur rent can be reduced to zero. The neg ative charge on the grid will have the effect of a negative potential B with' respect to the filament, making the negative charge so strong around the filament that the electrons cannot leave it. On the other hand, If a posi tive potential of value F be applied fM - I C'Baftery I'I'I'I'r 3 ftArffarv i t s I I i.rw.
