Can a Republican Vote in the Demo
cratic Boxes at the Com
ing Primary?
The following letter from the At
torney General to Colonel Wilson G
Lamb, chairman of State Board of
elections, answers the above Question:
Replying to your inquiry of this
date, 1 beg to advise that under the
State-wide primary law an elector
who declares that he regularly votes
the State and county Democratic
ticket should be allowed to partici
pate In the Democratic primary and
vote in the state and county boxes.
Such an elector cannot vote in the
National box of either party, as the
law does not contemplate that In the
primary one shall vote a divided tick
et, but of course, he will be permit
ted to do this In the general election.
Very truly yours,
(Signed) T. W. BICKETT.
Attorney-General.

HELL, SAYS TROOPER
Wounded Frenchman Compares it to
Crater of Very Active Volcano.
Paris Dispatch, May 26.
The first wounded man to reach
Paris from the Douaumont sector
turned up in a hospital train reaching
La Chapelle suburban sanitary depot
this morning. He is a young Sergeant
named Sarrot, who has been attached
to a machine-gun section of his regi
ment.
"Yes, I've been there," he inform
ed The World correspondent with a
Joyous smile his wound isn't very
serious "right In Douaumont Fort
itself. I wouldn't have known it if
some one hadn't told me, for it look
ed more like a heap of stones and
gravel than a fort.
"When the yells 'En Tvant!' echo
ed along our trenches, I saw the
second company climbing out of the
comparative darkness of the trenches
into the blazing sunlight and running
off up the slopes toward Douaumont.
Another company followed, and then
we came along with our machine
guns on our backs.
"Lord, but it was hot,! The sun
and the weight on my back occupied
so much of my attention I almost fell
into the first-line German trench. It
was carpeted with bodies not a sin
gle living thing In it. You bet I en
vied those chaps who had only a rifle
to carry. The fellows ahead were
singing the Marseillaise, and I re
member trying to Join them and fall
ing because I was so out of breath.
"The fort itself was well, Just
plain hell. So many shells were fall
ing It was like walking into the crater
of a very active volcano, and besides
there were those damn German
quick-firers. As soon as we thought
we must have mowed down every last
man In the whole of Germany, anoth
er wave of them would break over
us from another corner. Maybe it's
still going on, for somebody discov
ered I was wounded and sent me
back."
RENEWS WEDDING
VOW TO DEAD WIFE
Sworn Document Placed in Coffin at

mony performed by W. Henry Willis,

my true devotion to the one Thou
hast Joined so cleanly to roe, and hast
taken away from me.
'Annie, my beloved and devoted
wife, I am here in the presence of
God and thee to show my true and
sincere devotion toward thee, to cast
flowers of true love upon thee.
"1 have placed your-wedding ring
upon my finger as a binding tie to
remain thy husband until death.
"I pray I may be laid beside thee
when God shall call me to that eter
nal rest with thee, my love. Kisses.
Your devcted husband.

DEFEXD THE BOB-TAIL
Statcvlll la Will Have His Hair
Cut As Pleases Him.
SutefTille Landmark.
Regarding article in Tuesday's
Landmark, relative to bob-tailed hair
ruts, sirned by one J. C. Ewea. right
here I want to go on record as favor
ing the F. wen-styled bob-tailed hair
ruts vs. the unshared neck called
foather-odge. v
The truth of the matter Is. this Is
a free country (outside of your
home), but there la not a day passes
that a certain Irish Yankee does not
"rug" me about my bob-tailed hair
cut. It may be all right for Germa
ny to tell us what we shall do but
when It comes to the Irish, then I
draw the line.
So far as style is concerned, the
feather-edge is The style. However.
I suppose there are many like myself
that prefer the old-style hair cuts In
stead of the kind that start some
where down your spinal column and
gradually taper off to the top of your
"bean." firing your head a kind of
turnip appearance, with hair on it.
I tried the feather-edge one day,
hut one time was enough, the fact be
ing that the Lord did not have a
Teather-edge hair cut in mind when
he modeled my head, or rather ears.
Take and cut all surplus hair from
the back part of my head until yon
get to the summit of my emporium
of thought, and my ears take on a
most conspicuous and prominent part
of my anatomy. In other words, I
look as though it would be dangerous
for any one to say "fchoo" I might
fly away.
There Is nothing looks better than
good hair cut with a clean-looking
shaved neck.
President Wilson is today honored
because he has stood out for our
freedom of thought and we are going
to do likewise. If Mr. Ewen wishes
his head to resume the shape of a
hairy turnip, that is his business. If
I wish to have mine cut rounding
with a little hair to protect the roots
of my ears, that's my business and
not his or that Yankee Irishman's.
Not Ho Good.
Statesvllle Landmark.
A witness in Iredell court, asked
about the character of one of the
parties to a suit, said his character
wasn't so good. 'Asked on what he
based the idea that the man's char
acter wasn't good, the witness an
swered that he had the reputation of
not paying his debts. Many a man
who dosen't pay his debts would have
no difficulty in proving a good char
acter in court, and the Landmark
osen't recall that it ever heard this
ailing assigned as evidence of bad
haracter, nothing else appearing.
Hut without reference to this partlc-
ar case, for we know nothing of the
arties Involved, this paper holds
hat one who makes It a practice to
ail to pay his honest obligations Isn't
straight and therefore his character
sn't good. The witness had the
ight view, whether he was right as
that particular case or not. But
if every man listed In the dead-beat
lass should be put down in the
courts as a man of bad character, a
big bunch would fail in the character
test and they should fail.
A girl hasn't any use for a man
who is too cowardly to propose.
