TWO ARE RECOMMENDED. Alonzo Barber For Register of Deed* 1 AnJ Ell S. Turlington For Sheriff. To the Domocra'U voters of John- a slon County: We, whose mmri *111 app< ar nt 1 the close of this article. d>nlre to ?" ?ay a few things In behalf of our t esteemed friend and neighbor. Mr. 1 Alon/o Rarbcr, whose name will be presented to the Democratic Conven tion on the third of August for Regls ter of Deeds. We have known hlin ' from chll Ihood and feel safe In say ing. there I no; n man In John 'on County that ha< a better rerord than he and as far as hi-> quail i'-atlons for the duties of the off! e are concern ed, they cannot be excelled, for we have no Idea there Is a man In John- 1 ston County more competent than lie. One other point We feel like the VO- ( ters of Johnston County should not f overlook: Many years ago, he was i afflicted with rheumatism, which I left him unable to do much manunl < labor, with a large family dependant f upon him for support. Mr. Harber t has never had the advantages that < most of the men that the people of I JnhiiMon County hav< placed In this I paving office. He is a poor man i and has b-en deprived of the advan- ? tages that most of those that have and are now seeking the same place, lie has practically hail to right his ?way to the front. Voters of John ston County, whi n the ::rd day of 1 August conies and you are to choose a man for Register of Deeds, we think you would do well, t? consider this matter well before you make up your minds, whom you will Hiipport. Democrats, let's nominate Alonzo Harber for Register of Deeds and Kll i S. Turlington for Sheriff and the people of Western Johnston ?ill be satisfied. C,. W. JOHNSON. J. D. MORGAN. J. WILLIS CRKECH. Just To Remind You. Tn I ho Voters of Grand Old John ston?Greeting: We Foe In the columns of The Herald a communication now and th?"n n king that the office seek the inr.ri, and not the man seek the of flee. 1'iit If we are any JudK'* of things In these fast time*, there are numbers Keeking, and having friends to : eek for them. We would be >slad If Influential men would remem ber some twenty-five years back, whi n some men were forced on the volets of .Johnston County and a Republican received more than a thousand majority over one of the fcest men in the county. Some do not like to near of the past. To the delegates of the convention to meet August ISrd: Hestlr yourselves In the tipper story and be sure to nom inate Alonze liarber for Register of Jieeds and Albert Noble for Clerk of the Court, If you want harmony and success. -j J. H. BROADWELL. Selma, July 25. Grimes For Sheriff. We have but a week now before we go Into convention to make up the Democratic ticket to be placed before the voters of Johnston Coun ty. Democratic victory at the polls depends on the ticket we put forth. 1 desire to endorse all that has been said of Mr. W. P. Grimes, of Ben tonsvllle township, for sheriff, and to say with all due respect of the oth er aspirants that his name on the ticket means more strength than any other man we could place there. His past record as a Democrat; his well balanced temperament and his upright character fits him to make the strongest campaign that is pos sible for a man to make. Besides he comes from a part of the County that Is now and has been for 20 years past, without representation by nny office of note. Ills nomination would bring back many Democrats w lio have grown lukewarm and in dlffi rent because of n repetition of the same old ticket. He is worthy and efficient and would make an i('< al sheriff, equal to the Honorable 1. T. Ellington. H. V. ROSE. Ashley Home for the Legislature. ? * *. To the Editor: I heartily endorse the piece that appeared in the columns of The Her ald in regard to the candidacy of Mr. Home. There could not be a better man found in Johnston Coun ty to represent us in the Legisla ture than Mr. Home. He is a man ?off deep thought and broad mind and ?of wide experience, a man who knows the needs of the people in all pursuits of life, a man whose -advice would be sought for in the .hull bf the Legislature. The only ?V.'ffkulty would be in securing his consent. Also I advocate re-nomina tlon of W. S. Stevens for Clerk, and Ram T. Honeycutt for Register. There Is a great deal said about ro tation in office, I favor rotation as much as any man when we have an Incompetent man in office that falls to come up to the standard, but when we have such men as Stevens find Honeycutt we bad better give them at least one more term. If we are going to (rive all the worthy men in the County one or two terms tn office it would never tret round, life is too short. Give us Home for the Legisalture, Stevens for Clerk. Honeycutt for Register, and we will have a ticket that can't be defeated. W. B. EASON. WiUon't Mills. R. F. D. No. 2. Hales For R;gist?r. To the Editor: 1 wish to do all I ran for llit Dem icratic party In the coming election. 1 irid. In order to do this, I think we hould put forth the best men we t nve, and I send jou the nauie of t C. B. HaleK for Krister of Deeds. I | ersonally know him to be fully qual fied for the position ai:d a man of ip to date make up. one who will iiio-v the people of Johnston County ; very 'ii/ie he sees theui.

To the Kdltor: Ah our Grand Old Democratic Con tention Ih soon to assemble In Smith Held to nominate officer* for the next two years; I think It needful Tor us to put forth the best men we liave. For Register of Deeds, I wish to say that we could not select a l>etter man than N. B. Hales. 1 have known him all his life, and he Is a gentleman of the highest order, one that will know the people every time he meets them, (live us N. B. Hales for Register of Deeds. I. D. MANNING. Selma, R. P. D. No. 2. Grimes For Sheriff. Editor Herald: I wish to endorse through the col umns of your paper the candidacy of \V p Orlmes. of Bentonsville Town ship. for the office of Sheriff of John ston County. I have known him from boyhood nnd know, him to be a good man and well qualified to perform any and all duties pertaining to the office of Sheriff. He has always been a straight Democrat and a hard worker for Democracy. He has al ways been successful and strict to business, always making a succes. His father and mother both dying when he was quite young, he went to work and succeeded in getting an education. He has been suc cessful as a teacher, as a merchant nnd as a farmer, and he has served as a deputy sheriff in his township for several years and has made many friends. If the Democrats of the County will meet In Convention on the 3rd day of August and nominate him he will add many votes to the ticket. So let me urge every Demo crat to go to the Convention and let's nominate him and he will sure ly be elected by a large majority and make n sheriff that everybody in ?lohnston County will be proud of. R. I. OORCRN. Willow Springs, N. C. R. No. 1. An Open Letter. T<> the Democracy of .Johnston Coun ty: At the time I first announced my candidacy for the nomination for the office of Register of Deeds, I Intend ed to call on my friends throughout the County and personally solicit their support. I have been unable to do so because of the fact that my w ork was needed in my crop, and also i could not spare my stock from the plow. My farmer friends will appreciate the situation and ?ardon me for having stayed at ioni" when 1 say that "I as well as they, have had to battle with old "General Green." 1. therefore, take this method of calling upon my friends and support >rs ti come to the convention on Ad just 3rd and stand by me. I can easily be nominated If they will at tend the convention. I regret that circumstances have been such as to prevent my seeing you. Take this card for a visit and meet me in Sniithfield on the 3rd. Every vote and every word spoken in my behalf will be greatly appreciated. Yours in Democracy, ALONZO BARBER. Elevation Township. For Treasurer. Mr. Editor: I see in your paper the name of Mr. Chas. N. Parker has been an nounced for Treasurer of Johnston Couaty. I heartily endorse every word that has been said about Mr. Parker, and also recommend him as being the right man for the of fice. Let's all nominate him on the 3rd day of August and old Johnston will have as good a man for Treasur ei as it has ever had. W. A. EDWARDS. Princeton, N. C. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought ANNOUNCEMENT. Candidate For Sheriff. I hereby announce myself a tan lidnte for sheriff of Johnston Couu y. subject to the nomination by the Democratic Convention. \VM. D. AYERA. Smlthfleld. N. C. July 21. '10. Richardson For Sheriff. ro the Editor: I noticed In last week's Herald a number of endorseuii nts of C. W. Richardson for the next Sheriff of lohnston County, and this suits my way of seeing things exactly. Mr. Richardson has had some experience with the "Rads" of Johnston Coun- l iv, and If you good Democrats of the othfr townships will Join Reulah and nominate him for the next sheriff, the Republicans will fare Just as they have always done when he was in the fight. Mr. Richardsou has not only been active In Johnston County politics, but is a substantial business man as ? well, and will fill the office of Sher- i Iff as creditably as the present sher iff and his famous predecessor. Yours for Democratic success, W. N. BARDEN. Micro, N. C. July 2.">th, 1910. Banner's Modest Claim. Mr. Editor: Banner township Is so modest in her claims upon the Democracy of i the Couuty that some of the town ships seem to think that she as no rights. I said some of the town ships, may be, I should 'have said one of the townships. Those who have kept up with the claims of ?his one township know that It has two candidates for sheriff, one for Treasurer, one for Representa tive to the Legislature, one for Coro ner. one for County Commissioner, and may be one for the Senate, etc. Now, we have our candidate for office, and he is so modest that he has scarcely let It be known. This man is candidate for Sheriff. His name Is Ell S. Turlington. Give us Turlington for Shreiff and he will help roll up a big majority for the party. E. L. HALL. tli-nson, N. C. W. L. Standi for Treasurer. To the Editor: I wish to recommend to the vo ters of Johnston County assembled In Smithfiild August U, 1910, W. L. Standi for Treasurer. He Is a bril liant young man highly competent to fill the office with credit to himself and the County. He is a self made man having taught school in my neighborhood a good while having tak en a course of bookkeeping in King's Business College, now has a position with J. I. Barnes & Bro., Clayton, N. C. Mr. Standi is a cripple man, has to walk on crutches. He is a man that has a lot of energy and perseverance and would give his en tire time to the duties of the office. Mr. Standi is a very worthy man for the office and would make an Ideal treasurer. 1 hope the Demo crats of Johnston County will con sider his condition and nominate him and I am sure he will give entire satisfaction. W. B. EASON. Wilson's Mills, N. C? R. F. D. 2. W. L. Standi For Treasurer. Mr. Editor: Please give me space in your pa per to add my endorsement to Mr. W. L. Standi for treasurer. 1 have known Mr. Standi since early boy hood, and have always found him strictly reliable. He is worthy and capable, and is well thought of by those who know him best. JOHN T. TALTON. Clayton, N. C., July 26. Richardson For Sheriff. Mr. Editor: Please allow nie a small space in your valuable paper. I want to en dorse what has been said through the columns of this paper to the Denioeratic voters concerning the nomination of Clarence W. Richard ardson for Sheriff. I have known him for several years. Have found him to be a straight-forward gen; tleman. He Is clever, euergetic, smart, and competent and worthy of holding any office In the county. He was reared on the farm and knows the farmers' needs. He is a plain, every day the same. man. Is soci able nnd polite to all. And although having been honored as Senator and Representative, he has never seem ed to feel himself above his fellowmen in the least. Should we elect him to the office of sheriff, he would ac cept the office feeling that he was chosen to be the servant of the peo ple. \t all times ready to perform the duties of the office Impartially. Every Democrat! Go to the conven tion and nominate Clarence Richard son for sheriff! He will help us win the victory and will lead the ticket. J. M. VINSON.

Editors Herald: Please allow me space in your paper to recommend a man for Reg ister of Deeds who Is In every re spect qualified to fill the office with credit to himself, his party and his county. A man who is a successful farmer and business man, a man who If nominated will be elected and fill the office up to the high Stan- j dard of the present incumbent.

Sold by Hood Bros. Endorsing Wiggs. We wish to ask the Democratic Convention to nominate Wiggs for treasurer for the following reasons: First?He has already proven him self to be in every way fitted for the office. Second?Six years ago he led the ticket in the county. . Third?His only way of making a living is to work it out on the farm and having been a cripple in both hands and one foot from infancy, making it hard for him, having nev er had the advantage of a father or any one to help him to prepare for bookkeeping or anything that others have had the advantage of, being poor and not able to prepare him self only as he could work it out. Fourth?He is now* 53 years of age and will not likely ever be before the people again, while others though are cripple, are young and have the advantage of an eduaction and a position to make a living without go- , ing to the farm to work it out and will stand a good chance in the fu ture to obtain an office, while ow ing to Mr. Wiggs' age he will not. We would respectfully ask the peo ple to consider the above, and let's nominate him. Signed: Lawrence Brown, W. A. Corbett, D. T. Creech. G. B. Worley, S. R. Pee din, J. H. Woodard, A. G. Stancil, G.
