Mr. Editor: I have recently been m several counties in the central and eastern section of the1 1 State, and to my great pleasure I found Governor Kitchin 's friendsj very enthusiastic over his daily increase of supporters. Thei plain Deople of North Carolina1 cannot understand why Senator; Simmons will not meet Governor. Kitchin in debate and defend his "special interests" record. Is it that he cannot? 'Is he afraid to face the Democratic voters with the Governor and correct or deny the charges preferred against him? If the charges are true as to his violation of Demo cratic principles, then he ought not to be re-elected. If they are untrue, then he ought to meet the Governor and let the people see. he is sincere in his Democracy the Senator is afraid to stand up and meet the Governor in his own State and before his own consti- A . 1 t 1 A 1 4 ems ana aeiena his own re cord. I ask his most ardent sup porters is he a fit person to send to the Senate to represent this grand Commonwealth? Governor Kitchin has not said one word about Senator Sim mons' personal record. His charges are against his political record, which is always open for public discussion. No Democrat will deny this. If Governor Kitchin were the only one who says Senator Sim mons ought to be defeated there might possibly become, semblance of an excuse for the Senator to refuse to meet him, but such is not the case. The late lamented and honored ex-Governor Ay- cock, who was always one of Senator Simmons' close personal and political friends, in his last message to the Democrats of North Caralina said he should be defeated; Chief Justice be de feated, and a great majority of the Democrats all over the State say he sould be defeated. His voting tor Lorimer ought to defeat him, Why did he change in the test trial when there was 'no new eyidence? Had he felt the people's pulse? His 'votes with Aldrich against the Democratic platform and for protection ought to prevent his re-election. R. P. Byrd. Come to The Pioneer and get Prices.

MCNINCH CLAIMS BIG GAINS FOR KITCHIN Frank R, McNich, of Charlotte, manager of the Kitchin Senatoria campaign in the State, yesterday claimed a majority of at least 25.- 000 votes for Kitchin on the firs ballot, .anq said he was as certain iiitcniri wouia oe nominated as anything in the world. He said that three months ago he wouldn't have claimed such a j majority, but now there has re suited a jjreat change all over the State in which the swing hai tbeen over, to the Kitchin forces. I Mr, McNincb said as vigorous v. . ja campaign as possible handicap ped by the lack of funds, is being waged and will continue to be Waged, and that the campaign fund had been contributed to chiefly by friends of the Gover nor and .dtfferent Democratic leaders over the State. He expres sed the hope that Kitchin and 5immons would get together in a joint debate, believing this would appeal to the voters as the be?t way of clearing up the issues. Mr. McNinch said that in the last three weeks there has been a remarkable trend in the State to ward he cause of the Governor He said Senator Simmons could not stand the searchlight that had been thrown on his record and that it would be an egregious blunder to elect both Wilson and bimmqps wnen one is a progres sive Democrat and the other a reactionary. The latter, said he, beinoutof , harmony - with . the leaders Bryan and Wilson, would tMuderamftijse-vQrri)r(fesuve- texause oii Drosi Democracy. . These changes, he claimed, have beet going on rapidly all foyer North Carolina, in the various counties of the State, and in 'Guil ford county, and the result, said he, would mean thej defeat of Simmons and the election of Kitchin. Greensboro News. Paint? There aretwol Igood reasons for painting often-enough or even too-often. One, to look prosper ous; two, tobe so, - ' Nothing does one more credit or gives one more credit than paint, supplemented of course by what goes with it; and paint costs nothing. True, the first cost is $5 or $6 a gallon put-on; but it saves more than than that in the property; saves it from slow going down not always slow; -it drops with a jump when water gets in on wood and iron. Dry wood and iron cost nothing kept dry by paint. Better paint when it needs it. Paint never goes-down in the sense of being more profitable next year. DEVOE. Long, Bradsher & Co., sell it.
