' nesday night, and la aaaured a cordial
welcome and a big crowd. He will
make three apeechea at Mecklenburg
county points next Saturday, at
Huntersvllle. Cornelius and Davidson,
' Congressman Bob Doughton, of the

make two or three other apeechea in
- the district this week.
Secretary Daniels will arrive In
' North Carolina Wednesday morning,
speaking at Morganton that after

: lag to Charlotte Thursday. .
It is also likely that Representative

unanotte ana uasionisj last weex, am
make a splendid impression, wllf b
back In the distriot next Monday. If
he is able to return. Mr. Heflin will
apeak at Uneolnton next, Monday at
one p. m. ana at Hickory tnat nignt.
The democrat seem to be center
ing much of their effort In Catawba
county In the hop of redeeming Ca
tawba for democracy.. While It has of
"late years had the habit of returning
republican majorities, sometimes , of
several hundred, the demooratlo lead-
era over there say that they won't
do worse than draw aa even break
for Hoey. and may. carry the oounty.
Lincoln seems certain to land in
Hoeys eolumn by a safe margin, al
though It is ordinarily a close county.
If democratic expectations in Catawba
and Lincoln are fulfilled, Hoey will
eome to Mecklenburg with a lead over
Morehead, and Mecklenburg will fin-
lsn tne Job. wniie avis usually diffi
cult to get out a very heavy vote In
a by-election, the amount of work be
ing done thla time makes it appear
certain tnat tne vote win be fairly
heavy, and Hoey Is certainly going to
Win,, or there are some badly fooled
democrats' In the ninth district, and
they will be bitterly disappointed.
Several years ago, it was a political
maxim that the democrats uld be
depended upon to do some fool thing
at tne most opportune time to work
their undoing, but if they ever played
the fool's game any more completely
than" reptfblioan in the present eon-
f gross have been doing, uiey are go
ing some.
The last fool republican stunt i
. the effort of Senator Moses, of New
Hampshire, sometimes termed "Dr."
Moses, to revive the old "force bill."
On top of the Moses' action. Senator
Curtis, or Kansas, repuDiican wnip in
the senate and standpatter of stand
patters, submitted to the republican
1 controlled rules committee of the sen
ate a motion to permit cloture to be
Invoked by a majority vote, in other
words, to shut off debate by a mere
majority vote. At present, it may ge
done only py a two-tniroa vote, ana
therefore cannot be taken merely as a
party step. In Washington, it is re
' ported that there is more than a mere
coincidence in tnese steps, to south
ern senators, there Is a significance
attached that does not bode well for
southern representation. Some of
. them fear that the republican m&jor
' Ity la going to attempt to either re-
enfranchise tne negro in tne south
ern states or cut off southern repre
sentation in congress from those
states where the negro Is not permit
ted to vote. Either would serve the
republican purpose. In many states
and scores of congressional districts
the negro vote would be predominant.
and of course it would be republican.
It not only nearly everywhere has
been so', but the negro would feel
greater obligation o the G. O. P. than
ever before. If the negro were not re-
enfranchised, then-southern represen
tatlon in congress would be based, ur.
der the republican plan, on the num
ber of votes cast rather than popula
tlon, and as a result, the south rep
resentation in congress would be cut
down not less than one-third, and
may-be more than that. The upshot
would be there would never be an
other democratic congress, and the
south would never again be "in tne
saddle" as republicans have claimed
Bucn a threat as this against the
south, raised at this time, isn't calcu
lated to help the candidacy of John
M. Morehead. the republican nominee
for congress, for a party threatening
the south with, a "force" bill isn't
going to add anything to its popular
ity in this part of the land. If Moses
and Curtis had deliberately aet out to
add to the democratic party's prestige
in the south, they couldn't have
chosen a more effective way. More

Use Gentle Remedy to End
Constipation
Some "physics" fight the bowels.
They rend their way through the ten
der Intestinal membranes like so
much dynamite. They clean the body,
true, but they do it much harm.
Other laxatives are habit forming.
Once the bowels bow to them, they
will answer to no, other call. Don't
contract "laxative habit"
Sloan's Reiief Tablets are as gentle
aa nature. They don't fight the bowels,
but easily and painlessly cause them
to perform their natural functions.
They form no habits. They will even
release those now in the toils of habit
forming physics. Constipation, the
poisoner. Is best ended by Sloan's Re
lief Tablets. Use them alwaya ThevZre

work in gettlna at the profiteers. The
merchants were very firm in tneir
opinion that nothlna- they could do
would materially lower the cost of
living. They declared that the buying
public was largely responsible for the
high cost of living because they de
manded those classes of goods which
were seasonable and rashionaoie,
rather than the staple lines of goods
which could be sold at a lower mar
