Pay your poll tax be fore the 1st of May so that you can vote in the presiden tial election. four More Democratic Candidates. The list of caDdidates seeking office in this county on the Demo cratic ticket has been lengthened by the addition of the names of Miles P. Flack for Representative, J. R. Ledbetter for Sheriff, A. W. Grayson for Treasurer, and R. L. C. Gibson for Register of Deeds. Mr. Flack is closely connected with the public life of the county, he is well informed on county af fairs and would make an excellent representative. He is at present -a member of the board of county commissioners. Mr. Ledbetter was a merchant here for several years and is well known over the county. He is a successful farmer and capable business man. Mr. Grayson, the third candidate to enter the race for Treasurer, is a prominent merchant of this place and is also well known throughout the county. He is a splendid gen tlemen, exceedingly popular, and is admiraby fit for the position to which he aspires. Mr. Gibson is sompleting his third term as Regis ter of Deeds and has performed the duties of this office with credit to himself and to the satisfaction of the people. He is exceedingly popular and accommodating and his supporters are predicting his re-election next fall by a good majority. Says the News and Observer: “When there is any attempt to challenge Democratic efficiency in North Carolina the Republicans are butting their heads up against a stone wail. And there is another big stone wall when they attempt to make capital by an attack on the educational system of the State.” Lime is one article that no thoughtfi^l person can afford to economize on. It destroys more microbes and germs than anything else on earth, but some people seem unable to understand and ap preciate its value. Try a barrel around your premises, and note the result. Ex-Judge H. G. Ewart, of Hen dersonville, has written the French Broad Hustler, of Hendersonville, a letter in which he denies that Marion Butler captured the Re publican State convention but ad mits that Butler’s activity in the Republican campaign this year will have the effect of increasing the Democratic majority. Your home paper comes to you as an old friend and neighbor, tell ing you all the home news while the large city paper enters your home as a stranger. With the advent of warm weath er, flies begin to multiply. The swatting ' campaign should begin early, both in town and in the country. Wo Request Made for Hammer Im peachment Washington, March 18. Repre sentative James Jefferson Britt, the Republican member of Con gress from North Carolina, told the Daily News’ correspondent to night that he had not received a request from either the Randolph citizens or former Senator Butler, requesting him to bring impeach ment proceedings in the House against District Attorney W. C. Hammer, of Asheboro, who was charged with misconduct in office. The department of justice exoner ated Mr. Hammer. The paper shortage has become so acute that the Department of Commerce of the government has appealed to housewives to save old papers and rags. One million cir culars have been sent out to be posted in post offices and elsewhere throughout the country urging that papers and rags be saved. The commerce department promis es to put those who save papers and rags into touch with manu facturers. Notice!

'Advance shapes in these have been coming by express daily for the last few days and many have been sold promptly upon arrival. The values are good, we assure you. The materials were bought by the garment manufacturers at prices away below the prices of today. Many of our waists are already here with more coming almost daily. There’s a real advantage in choosing your Spring Suit or Coat early in the season. First, you have the pleasure of wearing a new style garment while it is really new. There is surely some pleasure and not a little distinction in being among the first to wear the new modes. Then, too, you have so much longer to enjoy being dressed in the season’s smart new fashions— a whole season instead of just a part of one. Our displays of coats and suits are the most inter esting in the shop. Tailored suits; tailored in the prevailing modes, a wonderfully broad col lection of several different models, priced at $11.50 to $24.50. Tailored coats, introducing the smart Sport styles, priced at $4.75 to $10.00. For women who seek the straight road to “quality values” this store offers the shortest route and the easiest one to travel—there are no obstructions it—no unsuspected obstacles bar the way—it has obtained such smoothness as never before was known. We want to acquaint as many women as possible—as quickly as we can—with the advantages of conserving time, money, patience by taking the road of utter smoothness this Spring, which leads to Gaston & Tate’s—the Mecca of Fashionable Women. DRESS GOODS OF MANY KINDS—In wool, in silk, in linen, in fine mercerized. The prices on these have been mounting lately in a way disgusting. As yet our prices are not far from former prices but all of us must readjust our ideas—Sure there’s nothing else to do. NEW CORSETS; NEW LACES and EMBROIDERIES; NEW RIBBONS; NEW NECKWEAR; NEW GLOVES By the Calendar Spring has been with us for a fortnight. By the thermometer a different story obtains but we all know a few days will find us speaking of “last winter.” We dealers have found desirable merchandise scarce in first hands and consumers will soon have the same trouble. It is a crazy market, if ever there was one. Attention, Farmers! We will handle Fertilizers for spring planting. We have Northern grown seed Irish po tatoes. We have lime-Sulphur for early spraying. We have Georgia Fulghum seed oats for early sowing. We have cotton seed meal, hay, oats, corn, molasses feed, etc. Gaston & Tate, Inc. “The Square Deal Store.” % iXr % Or Uif % Oi Hit Hit \6 m ib \Hr iir \H ib it/ il/ ilr ilif 2127, and containing 23.52 acres, more or less; and the third tracts being the George M, Bird tracts 1 and 2, lying on the waters of Clear Creek, being parts of Grants 656, 3180, 6083, 6088 and 2127, adjoining the lands of Will Thomas, J.
