To the People of j
TRANSYLVANIA COUNTY |
I was bom and raised in this good county of ours and
my family has lived here for many years. My interest
and my connections are with the people of Transyl
vania and I know the wishes, likes and dislikes of most
every citizen of our county and who they are and
where they are and I feel that I can represent each
and every citizen of the county fairly, squarely and to
the best interest of every one. I believe in higher wages
for the laboring man and for the farmer; I think that
school teachers have not been paid enough and think
that their pay should be increased and means provided
to pay their salaries. I am in favor and intend to do
all I can, to help our citizens in payment of their back
taxes 90 that the taxpayer will not be burdened with
this accumulation of taxes for the years past.
If the TVA decides to build any dams in this county,
I think that sain« should be built on the tributaries of
Ihe French Broad‘River, by which I mean the small
streams, instead of building a large dam that would
flood the French Broad Valley and thereby destroy
our valuable farming lands. I am in favor of and shall
introduce a bill which will require the Federal gov
ernment to pay its proportionate part of the interest
on the county bonds by reason of the fact that the
Federal Government has taken over so many acres of
land in this County and thereby cut off the county’s
rights to tax same.
I believe that the Federal Government snouia pay
its proportionate part ol the taxes in this county as they
are by far the largest land owner ir. Transylvania.
I believe that the town of Brevard has an abundant
water supply so that the citizens of Brevard should
get all the water needed at a reasonable rate and
not be subjected to the high taxes which they would
have to pay, if water meters were established and
put into effect.
A9 to the second primary, I will say to the good peo
pie of this county that I made a proposition to my
opponents in the race for the .Senate before the iirst
primary that I would agree that the highest man
should be declared the nominee ami that we would
not go into a second primary, but this was not accept
ed and after the second primary was called .or, bv
other candidates, I felt it my duty to my friend? who
had so loyally supported me, to enter into same. 1 he
largest township in the county, namely. Brevard, had
h second primary for Constable and alter that jecond
primary was called for, it made nttle diff'-1 ‘ ’’
to how many entered into it. However, had my oppon
ents agreed to be governed by the results of the first
primary, I would not have beer, in the second pnma .,
nut after I found a second primary was called, ™i other
candidates, then 1 felt that my coming into a
primarv would not cost the taxpayers of county
anv more money, because a primary can be held for
every candidate as cheaply as for only one.
1 am making this lignt tor me a<
ate without aid or assistance or backing of m JWJJ
or “ring” or other association of \oters, but reding
upon my past record and upon my tnenda among the
•>oor and laboring men and tanners ol Trans^hania
eountv who I have always done my utmost to piote™
,nd benefit No silk stocking, golf playing, knee
Seeches c“owd is behind me, but only the men who use
the axe the shovel and the hoe and the women who
do their own cooking and washing are the ones 1 am
reiving upon and I ask the support of the common pe>
pie ol*our county, as my opponents call them, but to
n I ».Afpr aq the very backbone of not only
$Tml '£& b«t of cur State and of our .Nation.
I am a poor man myself, I have to work for my
living by the sweat of my brow and 1 most earnestly
arneal to the other workers of this county, those wh
,/ork with their hands and their body and who do not
sit in swivel chairs or do their workinoffjceswhere
they can work in the dry in tunes of rain, by the side
of 3 stove when it is cold and in the shade when the
sun is burning hot.
This is the time for working people to stano together
and the laboring man has gpt to have a reprejentati
in the Senate of North Carolina and I teel that 1 am
qualified to represent the dirt farmer, the man who
fives back in the mountains, tne mechanic antl other
laborers, better than my opponent
Thanking my friends for their support in the first
primary arid asking that they do what they can tor
me in the second primary and not in' tins
any promises as to changes m the stock law m this
county and not desiring ar.y change m the liquor law,
I am, % , |jj .W$s£& J
Yours for the best interest of the majority of the
people of this county,
