Have you registered?
See that you vote the right ticket.
Ye that have tears prepare to shed
them. i
When you go to the polls tomor
row keep your eye on the other fel
low. It is a Cause for rejoicing that the
public schools re-opened today to
complete the Interrupted term.
Tomorrow is house-cleaning day.
Let every man do his duty and help
to make the job a thorough and com
plete one.
The biggest mass meeting of them
all will be held tonight. Go and get
fresh inspiration and renewed cour
age for the battle tomorrow.
We haven't yet seen any account of
the invitation of, A. Sister Salley, Jr.,
of South Carolina, to the Mecklenburg
celebration. Now Is the time to muz
zle him and the "signers" should go
after him and bring him In.
Raleigh is meeting the proposi
tions that are brought before her
these days In splendid spirit and with
excellent result Several problems
have been solved satisfactorily in the
last month or two, and tomorrow, by
defeating the pie-counter gang she
will stick another feather in her cap.
The man who destroyed the books
must have done it in a, " .spirit of
bravado. He must have thought at
the time that he was doing something
smart and : that he would brazen If
out. Otherwise some precaution.
such as breaking locks would have
been used.
When The Evening Times started
the fight last summer on the "Dog
Question" we hardly thought it
would assume so serious proportions
as It has. A fight once begun in the
right direction sometimes brings
wonderful results, even if It does
start over a dog.
The eyes of the state are on Ral
eigh and tomorrow we win place our
selves in the front ranks or we will
take a step backward thatit will take
us fifty years to overcome. Raleigh
is ready and hungry for a revival in
business and Industrial development
and let us do the right thing by
starting out in the right direction and
giving the city a government in which
the people have confidence.
Today the children went, back to
school and Raleigh has redeemed
herself from this disgrace which was
about to overtake us. Let every man
go to the polls tomorrow and do his
full duty by himself, his homo, and
his city, and we will have a better
city government than we have had In
the past and Kaleigh will come to the
front again as she was in the past.
Let the citizens of Raleigh make up
their ; minds to stand for better
schools, better streets, better govern
ment, more improvements and a
greater city and vote and work for
that end. The opportunity Is before
us and we must go forward.
Over one hundred houses are being
lit in Raleigh today. If Raleigh
t-akes a progressive step and the world
sees that we are to have a progressive '
business administration and ttfat the

MEN WANTED.
Raleigh is .in a position today
where she will either go forward or
take a long step backward, and the
decision will be made by the voters
of this city tomorrow. Raleigh has
many needs, but the greatest of these
is MEN at the head of the city gov
ernment. There never was a time in
the history of the city when there
was such a demand for competent
and progressive men at the head of
the city. Some weeks ago we called
attention to the fact that this city
did not, need politics, but that it
needed MEN; and from the way
things look today the voters of the
city have come to the same conclus
ion, and we predict that on tomor
row we will have a house-cleaning
day in Raleigh. In other words-we
are going to have a spring cleaning
in the old political house, and this
city is going to be placed in the hands
of progressive business me.i who will
give this city a good progressive bus
iness admiaistraton -something It
has not had in years. For the past
five years Raleigh has had a black
eye in the estimation oi the whole
state, simply because we have had a
lot of men in control of the city who
have not run things for the best in
terests of the city, but have run it
for the jobs and the spoils.
Raleigh is on the threshhold of the
biggest industrial development in its
history, and there is the greatest op
portunity ahead for a grand and pro
gressive city, if we only go forward
and let all the. world know that we
expect to be progressive and protect
the business interests of the city and
the citizens. If we don't stand up for
our own interests and give our own
city a good name can we expect, our
neighbors to speak well of us. Let
us be men and do our duty by our
city and ourselves, and place MEN in
control of the city who will give Ral
eigh a good name and a good reputa
tion. Let us go to the polls tomor
row and vote for the MEN' who will
help to regain the prestige of our city.
Let us select the MEN who will be
above cheap politics and run this city
for the welfare of its citizens and
with the determination to make it
the greatest and best city In the
state. Raleigh has a grand future
before it if we only place MEN in
charge of the city, and it is the duty
of the voters on tomorrow to go to
the polls and select these MEN.
The women of Salisbury want a
home established in North Carolina
for old women. They say that North
Carolina is the only southern state
that hasn't such a home and they
want one established. They think the
old women of the state, who have be
come destitute and helpless should
not be left to eke out any sort of a
miserable existence they can, but that
the state should care for them.
Man of these helpless .old women
went through the trying times of the
Civil War, giving father, husband, or
son to the common cause. They la
bored and worked and strove to make
a living for themselves and the child
ren of the household while the men
were at the front, and to aid the cause
in anyway possible. These women in
particular the state should provide
for just as it has Its Soldiers' Home
for the men, but all the old women
who need such provision should be

where to go, no home and no rest.
True, there Is the county home, but
that Institution doesn't always meet
I the requirements of the case, and
something better should be provided.
It pays to lend money. We don't
mean in the commercial sense, with a
I
goodly Interest attached, nor are we
.
commending the pawnbroker's
ness as the proper and desirable way
of getting rich. But what we do
mean Is that some one asks to bor jjjW .
live dollars, or even one dollar you'
should let him have it, and we will
prove it to you. ' Read the following
Philadelphia dispatch to the New
York Sun:
"While Dr, Edward W. Hartungi of
this city, was at Sag Harbor, L. I.,
nine months ago he loaned $5 to a
well-dressed stranger who said he wa
ill and had lost his wallet. The
stranger said ho neeriprl the money to
reach his home in New York city. B. B. B. Cures Above Troubles,

"Li his will Mr. Montague said he
made' Dr. Hartung his heir as a re
ward for his act of kindness. Fifteen
other uiun had refused him the loan
before he had approached Hartung."
It pays to lend, as those fifteen
tight-wads who refused are now learn
ing. However, we wouldn't advise
that fifteen to go out into the high
ways looking for strangers to whom
to loan their money now. It might
never happen again. The man who
did it, it is well to remember, is dead.
It looks now as if tiiose who stand
in the way of reform in the adminis
tration of the city government and in
the way of any progress, whether
along civic, business, , or industrial
lines, would be swept almost literally
off of the face of the earth tomorrow.
But the voter should not let this feel
ing that the fight is already won keep
him from the polls. Keep tip the
fight until the last minute and bury
this dead-head, salary-drawing crowd
so deeply that they will never chirp
again. .
The Raleigh city charter met de
feat at the hands of the legislature,
the voice of 'the office-holding gang
having more weight with the legisla
tive committee than the voice of the
people of this city. But the defeat
ing of the charter served one good
purpose. It served to stir up the
people and awaken them as never
before to the necessity of getting rid
of the crowd In charge of theity's
affairs before there is possibility of
going forward In any way.
Got Irntes Mixed.
The Raleigh, Evening Times asks:
"Will the Mecklenburgers invite Cap
tain Ashe to the celebration?" Of
course they will and will feel honored
by his ; resenee. Captain Ashe Is a
firm believer in the Declaration. . He
was simply unfortunate in getting the
dates mixed. Charlotte Chronicle.
Will Sweep Cleuiri
Opponents of the present city 'admin
istration in, Raleigh keep talking like
they were going to make a clean
sweep, but whether they are whlstliff&J
to keep up their courage we do not
know. We hope their "clean sweep"
will not turn out like that predicted
for the democratic party in the last
presidential election. Greensboro Rec

The Raleigh Campaign.
Raleigh Is now in the throes of a hot
municipal campaign, but the campaign
in Raleigh has only developed into Its
present snappy and somewhat bitter
form within the past week and, as the
primary is to be held next Tuesday,
why, pel haps, Raleigh Will get less of
the strenulty of a municipal fray than
Wilmington did. Still Ralelirh seems to
be making a mighty effort to to have
a strenuous time and there appears to
be great rivalry between the two fac
tions the outs and the Ins. Not sat
isfied with what the old administration
has done, and, if reports are not in
error, the old Raleigh administration
has done many things it should not
have done and left undone those things
which It should have done, a large
