Vote* are issued in large numbers for each subscription payment, whether it be from a brand-new subscriber or from a regular subscriber extending or renewing his subscription. The votes are valued according to the length of the subscription. These votes diminish in value at stated pe riods through the campaign, and the free coupon vote ;n the paijer drops, too, the declining vote schedule being a guarantee to the workers that their interests are being safeguarded and their early work made more effective. Xo increase of votes will be made in any department of the campaign at any time. Opportunities Equally Big. The location of your home makes no difference so far as your chances of winning one of the motor cars is concerned. The distribution of the ears and cash prizes has been ar ranged in districts, so that candidates living in remote places, removed from Concord, can compete successfully, as has been proved consistently in times past where this method is used. Each caudidate will have an equal oppor tunity. This is positively guaran teed. Candidates living outside of (Con cord do not compete with candidates living inside for the big cars, except for first choice. Tuat is all. A separate campaign is being conducted in each of the three districts. The highest candidate over all gets his or her choice and so on down, according to the rules and regulations. A full set of prizes is guaranteed each dis trict, one or two of the cars ami as many cash prizes as there are separate districts. A candidate is not held within any bounds whatever in solicit ing subscriptions. They can work anywhere, but their votes only com pete against their own district. Thus a candidate from Kannapolis, for ex ample. could do some work in Con cord. some in Kannapolis and in the rural sections anywhere and all of their votes would be used to build their standing in their district. Campaign in Brief. While the ordinary family saves for several years to buy a small car j for cash or struggles along trying to make payments on a.car they cannot, afford, a candidate in this campaign I can enter the race and by using a 1 little real diligence and effort can win a car paid for and delivered in a few weeks. The campaign is go ing to be brief and under no circum stances will it be extended beyond the j date advertised. At the close a committee of judges selected from the advisory board, whose names will be published some time during the campaign, will coun4: and tabulate the entire vote totals, and those who poll the heaviest pote will be the ones who will glide away ( in their motor palaces—their very qwn luxurious machines. All the rest will receive cash sums in proportion to their vote totals, as explained in the announcement. The judges will make the awards. Their duty will be to compile all the votes in the ballot box. add them to the reserve votes held by the candidates and the pub lished vote in the paper at the close of the t'hird period, and the result will be known. Thus, until the judges an nounce the winner, it will be impos sible to determine who wins the cars. But remember ‘‘Everybody Wins Something,” for this is our guaran- Candidates Can Help. Persons who have never taken part in a voting campaign of this magni tude have no idea of how fast the votes accumulate. Once the start has been made and the friends begin their work of supporting their favorites, it becomes a genuine task in the cam paign department to compile all of the votes. Vote coupons count for some, subscriptions for a great deal, and those who feel that they will have to depend upon thir own efforts will be surprised how- they get help from friends they little dreamed would as sist them. It is not expected that the candi dates will depend wholly upon their own efforts. ’ Friends will help them gather votes and there is a great “kick” to the campaign for the active worker. Not only will friends gather coupons and save them for you, tbej will hunt up likely prospects for sub scriptions. There is one thought every candi date should get—the bigger you 1 ‘ ef fort the bigger your osi*e. While (Concluded on Page Six.) TESTINESS SEEN IN MARY’S LETTER Bath Negress Manages to Put Good Deal of Force in Missive. Kinston, Sept. M. —Mary Johnson, a liegress cf old Bath, in Beaufort county, may have an interview with postal authorities, it is reported, as .a result of the tastiness she mani fested in a letter to tin ‘Mn-law” up the country. Mary’s daughter, it appears, visited the addressee, a wom an married to a male relation of the Johnson women, and returning home stated that she had been badly treat ed. That caused Mary to wax wrathy. The letter found its way to the hands of local authorities and now. it is said, is in the possession of federal offi cials. "Whatever action the agents of the law may take, the epistle will be generally admitted to be one of the most amusing on record. Mary John son wrote: “I have found out how come that you treated Jodia when she was there and if I had ben her I wouldnt have stayed with you to save your red headed life.” It does not follow that the object of her ire was read-headed, but Mary was seeing red. Just how Jodia was treated is omitted, but it is gathered from the next paragraj/a that Jodia was treated badly: “Oh yas she told us all about how you treated her. I wish to my God it hadder ben me. After that you talked about my mother and you called ,Tod : a a peas of trash. Youre a big mouthed peas of trash yourself. You started to pour hot water on her. I wish you had poured it on her. I know I would shore come there ami beat the devel out of you lots worse than Bud Jim did. I had no idea you would treat Jodia like you did. The next time she comes to stay with you your head will shure be white as snow. • “Yas you had a chicken here. We have at him. If you come messing we will kill you and eat you. lam saying this because I am woman enough to back it up. You is already mad with me. I dont care if you never speak to me no more. You aint nothing but a hel cat no way. I dont care what you say about me. I know I am a well raised lady. * * * You may as well go back home to old lady Mary Brown yo old black short haired red head fool you. I mean every word I say. Come down here and call me a peas of trash and I make you go back so fast your back bone will cut teeth. * ♦ * “You told Jodia you didn’ eat enough when you were here. Youre a big slab foot liar. If I had you I would ,pour hot water on you. “Jodia got home all right. lam coming up there the fifth Sunday to \ the union meeting. Write me soon and lots of love from “MARY JOHNSON.” MURDEROUS ATTACK ON SALISBURY MAN Two Masked Men Severely Wound Marcus Fisher on an Upstairs Floor. Salisbury, Sept, 2. —Marcus Fisher, young man employed by the White Packing Company, on West Liberty street, was the victim of a murderous attack by two men last midnight. Upon alighting from an elevator on an upstairs floor Mr. Fisher was at tacked by the men who wore masks and was cut severely on the shoulder and leg. When the attention of the night watchman was secured the men made their escape. Later blood hounds trailed them to Innis street where the trail was lost, and where it is thought the men took an automobile. Mr. Fisher is of the opinion that they were white men but whether their purpose was robbery or murder is not clear. Walked Into Officers' Arms. High Point, Sept. 3. —(/P)—Charles Heflin, white man, has been arrested here on a charge of violation of the prohibition law —all because he mis took an officer of the law for one of his customers. That is the opinion of Officer B. C. Woodell, and the other officers. In any case, Heflin, the officer say, walked straight into the officer's arms and handed him two pints of liquor. The officers found six more pints on the man’s premises, it is alleged. Debt Mission Named.
