More National banks failed in the year 1923 than during seven years of the Wilson administration. Many Failures This Year And this is not all. Conditions D are irrowine steadily worse. In the year 1923, there were 540 bank fail ores in the United St:itc- and in the first six months of 'hi.- year there have been 428 of such failures, or at the rate of 856 per year. During eight years of Wilson ad ministration there were twenty bank failures in North Carolina. In three months of this Republican national administration theie have been more thaH twice as many bank failures in one Republican western state as there were in North Carolina in the eight years of the Wilson adminis tration. There were forty-one bank failures in South Dakota in the first three months of this year. That this condition is not confined to the banks and therefore cannot be charged to bad supervision or man agement if the State or National banks is clearly shown by a com parison of business failures. Dur ing the last three years of the Wil son administration there were 25, 814 business failures in the United State with total liabilities of $571, 433,510. In the three years of the Harding - Coolidge adimnistration there were 62,048 such failures with liabilities of $1,871,830,134. Mr. Brummitt gave statistics to show the substantia decline in the puichasing power of the farmer's dollar under the past three years of Republican misrule in the nation. He pointed out that the Republican na tional administration had done noth ing to restore the ruined market which the farmers so badly need. Country Prsoperous Under Wilson Continuing Mr. Brummitt said: Everyone knows that during the Wilson administration the farmer re ceived good prices for what he pro duced. No argument is needed to sustain that statement. He only has to count the money in his pocket and to remember what he then had to know is truth. But it may be said that while the farmer received high prices for what jrepeaa governmenta, ttey acted un officially and Secretary Hughes was i careful to state that they did not rep resent the American government Republican leadership would claim credit for the rust which cut the Can adian wheat crop in two and carriod the price of wheat to $1-25 per bush el; this fall it would deny responsibil ity for a cabinet officer who sold the resources of the nation for $125,000. It would claim the honor of a settle ment of the Reparations problem re sulting from the unofficial advice of American business men; it would es cape condemnation for a Forbes who 189 stole or misplaced the funds provided of for the disabled defenders of the Re in oublic But no disclaimers can wipe out the stain of those shameful transactions, , and no argument destroy the force of these facts with respect to the condi tion of the American farmer. This has been an administration unparal leled for bank and business failures, and unequalled for hardships suffer- , agriculture. The Remedy The remedy for the corrpution and the incapacity of Republican govern ment during the past three years is to be found in a return to the stan dards and the ideals of Woodrow Wil son. The candidacy of John W. Davis offers the opportunity for the cor rection of thise ills from which all have suffered. He was the disciple and the associate of that great leader. Upon him has fallen the mantle of the old prophet, and with it a full measure of the old master's gallant spirit. With him in the White House, assisted by the co-operation and the wisdom of our Simmons, our Over man, and our other congressional leaders, we shall have a return to that fair, that just, that honest gov ernment of those eight years.

FOURTH ANNUAL FAIR SHOWS AGRICULTURAL PROGRESS (Continued from page 1) an article of interest. Mr. Poole is especially interested in war relics and it is not surprising as he has the dis tinction of having lost three uncles and a grandfather in the Civil War, and furnished two sons in the late war, both of whom returned. He is 67 years of age and comes from a jong-lived family, his grandmother be ing 97 years of age when she died. Other Exhibits. The art exhibit contained all kinds of interesting things, probably the most unique exhibit was that of Art Fibre which was made by Miss Sarah Plunkett a "shut in" who made the articles under the direction of the state superintendent of vocational re habiliation. Miss Plunkett lives three miles south of Asheboro with her sis ter and they are greatly interested in this work, by which they can earn a livelihood.

I The farmer is not the only one in- j terested in the effort to obtain a fair price for his products. He must be j prosperous if there is to be any real ! and general prosperity in the country. ' He nsually the first to feel any de pression in prices, but his condition ; will be reflected in that of banks, . merchants, manufacturers, and all other business.

The Solution .'' lit any effort to find a solution of ' the farmers problem we must go back to tht Democratic doctrine that he must bar a world market for hie ' product.
