What means that purplish-crimson spot, Blushing ashamed to be the blot That mars the whiteness of thy crest? Or no, are they the anguish tears That gentle biiast in silence bears Sighing in vain for winter's rest? Iweet spirit, why dost cage the dove So deeply in thy petaled bower. It is not seemly for a flower 'o keep the emblem of eternal love Imprisoned even in such chains As rob a prison of its pains. L' Envoi bare my snow-white breast To the stormy tropic breeze Because my soul's at rest. And I know that he who sees The dove I in my bosom keep, [ust feel his 90ul within his leap To higher aims, and nobler strife, , That living may indeed be life! - On June 7 each pf you will have an opportunity of showing your appre ciation for a man who has done much for you, arid at the same time show your interest and pride in a roan of your own county. u RALPH R.

This year the republicans must go into the primary to vote for a candidate for solicitor and lor United States Senator. Con gressman George M. Pritchard is a candidate for nomination for the United States Senate, and Mr. Fisher is a candidate for the nomination of solicitor. j , i WE URGE YOU ?* To go to the primary voting place, your regular voting booth, on. June 7th and vote for these men. Mr, Fisher is opposed for the nomination by Mr. Dockery, of Rutherfordton, and Mr. Lisenbee, of Marion. Both of these are real good men, but we believe that all of us want our old tried and true friend, Ralph Fisher, to have this nomination. Fisher Has Stood By Us ? Let's Now Stand By Him There are six counties in this district ? Transylvania, Henderson, Polk, McDowell, Rutherford and Yancey. Unless Mr. Fisher gets his full vote in Transylvania county, there is but little chance of his getting the nom ination. So let's all of us, every republican man and woman in the county, go to the primary and vote for Ralph Fisher.
