Parker For Treasurer. JEditor Sinlthfleld Herald: Some few weeks past I saw a let ter printed in your paper, written b.v Mr. Alalcom McKinne, Princeton, N. C., advocating Mr. C. N. Parker for County Treasurer. I understand Mr. Parker spent several years of Ms life in Boon Hill Township, and during his stay there, he made friends, not enemies. Now, Mr. Mc Kinne claims Mr. Parker a citizen of Boon Hill township, and as Boon Hill has not had a candidate before Ihe people for any office for 12 or li years, I feel that Boon Hill towu eblp Is entitled to some recognition. Further: I don't think any one would be foolish enough to claim that Sel ma I* placing too many candidates In the field; as Mr. Parker Is really a Boon-Hilllan, and his friends claim that his stay with us can only be .temporarily, I will. I have watched ?Vjijs good man for the past few ?Wfevks, as his place of business Is jii my path going from and to uiy .<office, and every time I sit down and engage In conversation with hlui, i stay longer with him each time. Mr. Parker is a good man; perfectly honest; truthful and upright. This man teaches by acts as well as by jprecepts. Your funds placed In the bands of C. N. Parker would be safe; and you will at all times find liiui billing, obliging and courteous to all who may have any business with him; and when his books are audited he will have the cash on hand to meet the amount his books ind Tonchers say he Is due Johnston VDnrunty. A11 the candidates I see mentioned in your paper are first class men, and would make good and efflicent officers; serve the county with credit and honor to themselves. I heartily endorse Mr. McKinne's candidate for County Treasurer. Mr. Parker has. in the done good work for the party, witJvogl reward or the hope of re ' ward 4thd he has not asked for the place; but, It would be acceptable to him. I predict if we will nominate C. N. Parker, he will pull as many democratic votes as any man on the ticket. We need good, strong men In the coming campaign. Mr. Parker posesses all of these quali ties. R. L. RAY. Selma, July 27, 1910. Richardson for Sheriff. Mr. Editor: While noticing the columns of your paper, I see the names of sev eral distinguished gentlemen of the ?county mentioned as candidates for the different county offices. Please allow me enough space In jrour valuable paper to mention the panie of a man for sheriff. The man I I shall name needs no introduction In Johnston County. He has served the people In the House and the Senate. He Is a true blue Democrat and has been one of the leaders in the party for several years. He is a man who if nominated would make us a good campaign and would win votes for the whole ticket. A man who has been a very successful business man in the town of Selma for the past ten years. He is an honest, upright gentleman. Everybodys' friend, and refuses none who ask him for a fa vor. If we nominate him for sher iff there Is not a doubt that he will add much strength to the ticket and leild in the victory. So let us all go to Smithfleld on the 3rd day of August determined to nominate the strongest and best men in the coun ty and nominate Clarence W. Rich ardson for sheriff, and we will make no mistake. J. P. EASOM. Selma, N. C. R. P. D. No. 1. ^ Richardson for Sheriff. To the Democratic voters of John ston County: I see the name of C. W. Richard sou of Selraa, mentioned In The Her ald last week for sheriff. Knowing him us 1 do, I want to endorse him and I want to say farther, that I am sure he Is the right man for the place. If nominated,, he will add much strength to the ticket. So I want to ask my Democratic brethren to be on hand at Snilthfleld on the 3rd of August and let's nominate him for sheriff. OSCAR OKEAL. Oneals Township. Richardson For Sheriff. Mr. Editor: Having seen the name of a man mentioned from different people of all over the County, for sheriff. This man I have known all my life. His name is Clarence \V. Richard son, a high toned clever gentleman, a man who can fill the office well. He Is capable, honest, kind and all right. I do hope to see the people on the 3rd day of August nominate C. W. Richardson for sheriff of John ston County. E. S. WHITLEY. Wilders Township. Stancil For Treasurer. I wish to recommend for County treasurer Mr. W. Lester Stancil, of Clayton. 1 know him well and can speak for him. He Is a fine young man and straight forward Democrat. I hope the people will help to nom inate him and am sure that In so doing no mistake will be made. M. C. W INSTON. Selina, N. C. Wm. D. Avera for Sheriff. To the Democracy: You help me nominate this far mer for sheriff and you will make no mistake. He Is well liked by his neighbors and will add strength to the ticket. He has spent money in the interest of the Democratic par ty and has done lots of work and lost lots of time. He has attended every Democratic State Convention except two, since 1888. He lives on his farm near Smithfleld and came there in 1896. He was born in this county in August, 1870. He is 6 ft. 4 in. tall, big shouldered and well backboned, weighs about 190 lbs. and would make an officer of whom the citizens of Johnston County will be proud. Nominate htm and you add strength to the ticket. His neigh bors are for him and of that fact he is very proud. He is a progressive farmer and believes in good roads, better farms, better conditions, good schools, etc. You nominate him and If the Republicans "back step,*' he will "broad shuffle." Wm. L. JOHNSON. Smithfleld, July 26. 1910. For County Treasurer. 1 hereby announce aayself as can didate for treasurer of Johnston coun ty, subject to the action of the Coun ty Convention, which meets in Smith field, August 3rd, 1910. C. N. PARKER. Selma, N. C. L. H. Allred For the House. To the Democratic voters of John ston County: I don't know of a time in several years when Johnston County needed her best talent more than she does now to represent Johnston County in the next Legislature. To fill this place we need men of the highest character, men who are noble, men who represent the rights of the masses of the people more than they do a few ring leaders, men who re gard their political promises as sa cred as they do a financial obligation. Now It is the duty of the Demo- j cratic Convention to nominate Rep resentatives to the next Legislature who are known to be absolutely true to their promises and obligations, who cannot be influenced by reward or from people of selfish motives of their own. Now we find such a man in the person of L. H. Allred, of Selma. If the Democratic Convention will nom inate Mr. Allred for the Legislature it will add a name to the ticket which will bring out men to vote the Legisaltive ticket that otherwise would not. Mr. Allred is a young man of ability, a lawyer of the high est type, has few to equal him as an orator. If he is nominated we will have a representative that John ston county will be proud of and our Legislature will not have but few men that will equal him and none his superior. Help us nominate him on August 3 by acclamation and he will make one of the best campaigns in the history of our county. JOHN A. EASON. Oneals Township. L. H. Allred For the Legislature. To the Democrats of Johnston coun ty: Seeing Mr. L. H. Allred's name mentioned in your last week's issue of The Herald for the Legislature I would be more than pleased to 6ee his name presented before the Dem ocratic Convention, August 3rd and nominattd. He is a young man of the highest type of character, a man who the people have got the utmost confidence in for a representative. I am sure he would lead the ticket in Ononis township if nominated. Let's meet at Smlthfield August 3rd and nominate him for the House of Rep resentatives and Johnston county will be proud of the services rendered by him in the next Legislature. W. S. EARP.

To the voters of Johnston County: Next Wednesday, August 3rd, the Democratic voters of Johnston Coun ty will assemble in convention to nominate county officers. I wish to endorse here the candi dacy of Mr. A. M. Noble, for Clerk of the Superior Court. I have known him from his early youth and I venture the assertion that no candidate who comes before the people at that convention asking for their support will be better qual ified to fill the position asked for than Albert Noble will be for Clerk of the Superior Court. He is well educated and has been a practicing lawyer for 3 years. His/ personal ilfe is clean, and his youth should not be against him. for he is old enough to have ambition to be a man in its fullest scope and import. His people have been honored citi zens of the County for more than a hundred years. We have so many worthy young men in the county that I submit that it is only just and fair that occasion ally their political ambitions be re warded. Should he be nominated for Clerk of the Court the writer believes that , the Democratic party would be con- | ferring a favor to the young men 1 in the party and an honor to this | young man. He would not only make a faithful 1 and obliging clerk but one which the people as a whole and the Democrat ic party in particular would be proud of. So let's all turn out next Wednes day, both young and old, who love the tenets of the Democratic faith and nominate A. M. Noble Clerk of Superior Court. GEOROE I,. JONES. A Letter From Chairman Richardson. To the Editor: Please be kind enough to Indulge a few lines from me to correct an erroneous report that Is gaining some currency in the county regard ing my conduct as Chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee of the County. I am criticized by some for failing to call together the executive com mittee during the last session of the Legislature to take cognizance of the repeal of the so-called fee bill. After a meeting was suggested to me. I addressed a letter to the sev eral members of the Committee con cerning the same, and fourteen of the fifteen written (the chairman be ing the sixteenth member* expressly disapproved calling the members to gether. I accepted this as a fair In dex to the general sentiment of the County, and thereupon declined to call the executive committee togeth er. As to whether I was warranted in assuming that position, I leave to the unbiased judgment of the Dem ocracy of the County. Again, my name has been mention ed with more or less frequency in connection with the nomination for sheriff, and In response to this I merely wish to say that I am still Chairman of the Democratic Execu tive Committee of the County, and in that exalted position I am more con cerned in the solidifying of all forces and in the selection of a ticket that will appeal to the masses, than in the prosecution of my own private in terests. What I wish to see above all things else is a triumph of Democrat ic principles Instead of men who enter into friendly rivalry for the offices. To that end I invite all Democrats devote themselves with energy and we will witness steady gains for the party in November. I urge all Democrats to attend their precinct meetings Saturday and to nominate their best men for town ship officers. I trust that we may have a large convention at Smithfield on the 3rd day of August, and I in sist that it is the duty of all Dem ocrats to attend and participate in the deliberations and transactions of the Convention, and thereafter sup port with enthusiasm the nominees of the militant Democracy of the coun ty. Yours, very truly. C. W. RICHARDSON. Chairman Dem. Ex. Committee. Selma, July 27, 1910. Nowell For Sheriff. To the Editor: I see several names mentioned In your paper for sheriff of Johnston County. R. M. Nowell. our present sheriff, has made us a good sheriff; while it is true he has been in poor health for a year or more, but his health has improved so much, and now looks like he is about restored to his former good heatlh. I, for one would like to see the people of Johnston County renominate Nowell. Nowell wil poll as many votes as any one we can place before the people. Come on the 3rd and l^t us I'ominate our present sheriff. R M. Nowell. GASTON CROCKER Selrua, July 28. LET US FRAME YOUR PICTURES. we do good work. COTTER HARD WARE CO.
