A Pointer for the Farmer. A point that should be thoroughly established in the mind of every to bacco farmer is that the policy of Mr. Kitchin to remove the duty on tobacco and make it free would be ruinous to the tobacco growers. The farmers of this country are now protected by a duty of 89 per cent. Mr. Kitchin in nearly every speech he makes assails Mr. Simmons on the stand he takes in maintaining this duty, so essential to every farmer who raises tobacco. The good substantial prices the farmer re ceives for his tobacco is due to the protect ion which Senator Simmons would safe-guard their interests. Re move the duty, as Mr. Kitchin claims should be done, then what ? All the tobacco in the world would come in free The farmers would feel its de moralizing influence in less than six weeks. This is one point the tobacco growers should remember when they go to the polls on the fifth of Novem ber and vote for Simmons. Simmomte Ask Questions. Mr. R. A. Harris, chairman Durham County Simmons Campaign Com mittee, ask the Kitchinites the fol lowing questions: 1. In 1911 did Governor Kitchin's brother. Congressman Claude Kitchin, speak in favor of the Reciprocity act approved by Congress July 26, 1911? Did Congressman Yates Webb from North Carolina state the truth in his speech in the House ot Representa tives, April 20, 1911, when he said the following : "Around him (Kitchin) stands the progenitor of the Payne Aldrich bill. Mr. Payne. Our friend. Nelson W. Aldrich, the horrible Mr. Aldrich, is for the treaty and so is Mr. Kitchin. (Laughter.) The steel trust is for the treaty and so is Mr. Kitchin. Andrew Carnegie is for the treaty. The beef trust is for the treaty and so is Mr. Kitchin. The cement trust wants it. Judge Crumpecker who has always fayored cutting down southern representation in Crongress on account of the negro vote, is for the treaty and Mr. Kitchin is going to vote with him. The Agricultural Implement trust is f r the treaty and so is Mr. Kitchin Mr. J. P. Morgan supports the treaty In that bouquet of great financial wiz ards, powerlul, heartless trusts and high protection republicans, my friend Kitchin at present finds himself safely ensconced as the central flower. 2. Does not the Reciprocity act, for which Brother Claude Kitchin voted, levy a tariff tax of 1 1-4 cents per pound on all kinds of fresh meats and all kinds of salt meats and all kinds of lard, when traded in back and forth across the line between Canada and United States? 3 Does not the Reciprocity act, for which Kitchin voted, place cattle, hogs, sheep and lambs on the free list, thereby enabling Armour and Swift to buy hogs, cattle and sheep in open market and enjoy the benefit of 1 1-4 cents per pound tariff on all meats and lard sold to Granville people. ? The Kitchin Catechism. Q. What is a Democrat ? A. One who supports William W. Kitchin for office. Q. What is a Republican ? A. Any candidate who runs against William W. Kitchin or whom William W. see fit to oppose. Q. Can you name any ? A. Yes, Craig and Simmons. Q. Can you name two real Demt - crats ? A. Yes, William W. Kitchin and Ulaud Aitchin. Q. Are there others ? A. None. Q. Is there a reason ? A. Yes ; both are politicians and are after the scalp of any one who stands in the way of their personal ambitions, whether he be Democrat, Republican or otherwise. Q. Can vou name a prominent Re publican Senator ? A. Yes, Simmons. Q. Can you name others ? Yes, but what's the use? He is the only one who has the job I want. Q. Has Simmons ever done anything but vote with Aldrich? A. No. Q. Has W. W. Kitchin ever accom plished anything during his long career in public office ? A. (Lack of space forbids an an swer) "There is a reason." He done nothing. Q. Ought any Democrat vote for Simmons ? A. Under ordinary circumstances, yes, but never when Wiiiiam Kitchin is running. Q Who is the original "Trust Bus ter"? A. William Walton Kitchin. Q. Name a trust that he busted ? A You make us laugh. Lack of space forbids. (There is a reason.) Q Who has made the best Governor of North Carolina in the past hundred years ? A. W. W. Kitchin. Q. Who will be the next Senator from North Carolina ? A. No answer. (There is a reason.) Gastonia.
