You have had almost three months of it. Your homes have been invaded with political circulars, praising the wonderful accomplishments of some candidate, in one paragraph and in the next attacking the good name and methods of his brother Opponent. Folks have been accused of e en lying and worse , still of being affiliated with Marshall Rings and cliques, and your good paper has been forced to exclude the interesting news of your community and " Courfty to. give space to the paid celurnns of the political rif-raf of the spell-binder. k .. v .. . I fully made up my mind not to enter any mud-slinging campaign when I decided to ask you to nomiuato me as your Representative; and I have carried this jnto effect. I have con ducted a fare, square, clean campaign, and you good people have shown that you appreciated this fact by the flattering vote you "."gave me on June the third. Your ballots gave me a MAJOR- ? ITY of 1 8 8 over my nearest opponent, Mr. Hendricks; but for some reason; which I hope is a GOOD one: Mr. Hendricks has seen cause to call a second Primary in our case. I am fully cognizant of the fact that this is a right given him under the law and I have no quarrel, with him for availing himself of the pri vilige. I have expressed myself , openly at various times in all parts of the County and'I again , repeat it; should I have been SECOND man, you good people would not have been bo- thered with a second Primary in the Representative raee..

"I came to this county seven years ago, and without any pull or family connections or the backing any faction of the party, N the peo ple made me the second - choice. I am profoundly grateful for this honor, jind I want to assure my friends and supporters that if I had au even chance to- defeat Mr. Swain I would call a second pri mary and continue the flght to the end. But with his large plurality I feel that I owe it to him to ex tend congratulations ' upon the splendid racewhich he made. "To my friends who gave rne loval 'and enthusiastic support I 1 . - - want again to express my appre ciations and it may be that they will have Hhe opportunity four years from date to give .me the nomination for the solicitor of this district. , Clischfield News Lovers in a hammock v Attempted to kiss; In less than a jiffy .eiqi 9Ji paptiBi iCaqj, Marion N.

Well everything is going De mocratic over . here how about Madison County. Looks like she ought to. ' A Subscriber, ' ' J.D. Allison, Johri A. Hendricks For Tfte Legislature .-1 :- i ; i ' i . A second primary having been called to be held the first day of July 1922, and no Republican candidate for the nomi nation for the Legislature having received a majority of the votes cast in the primary June 3rd, under the law I have en tered my name with the county board of elections for Madison County, as Republican candidate for the nomination for the Legislature. I have done this at the request of many Republic can voters through out the county. I am reliably informed and I believe that many voters were misled about my official re cord, and as to what I would do if re-elected to the Legislature, by false reports which caused them to vote against me. , I again repeat, that positively I am under no agreements or obligations to any one. All reports about me creating new offices are absolutely false. If re-elected I shaU strive to ligh ten the burden of taxes where it possibly can be done. I shall continue to labor for the up-building and betterment of Madi son County as I did in the last Legislature. , I want again to remind the people, that I was one of the principal factors in the passage of the State Highway Bill under which there will be spent in Madison County about $1,000,000, money derived from the rich counties and large corporation; I saved the people from the burden of the proposed $150,000 Madi son County Bond Issue; I voted for the law that prohibits any more county bond issues in this county. I abolished the road board.' I saved the people about $0,000 next year for the col lection of taxes. I supported the bill that brought into Madison County from the outside this year $5,000 to pay our school tea chers and to extend the schools six months after all recourses had been exhausted. ' I introduced and put through ai bill to pension Widows of ex-confederate soldiers who married before 1880 out Of the confederate pension appropriation which did not increase the appropriation.' ' I voted for and advocated the passage of many other laws 'that are good for the people of Madison County, as well as the state, and as vigorously opposed many measures which I believed were not good, for the people. The laws ot North Carolina together with the House Journal of the last Legisla ture will show my record - I was reared and worked on the farm until I was grown, and I know bow to sympathsUe with the farming class of people. ' fl was educated at and worked B w throogh'taeTMywiltj of North Carolina. I have practised law for thirty years. I was at torney for the U. S. Department of Justice for fifteen years, and traveled over nearly all the United States, and became acquainted with the laws and customs of the people' in the various states as well as the laws of the United States. I contested in the U. S. Court of Claims, with many of the ablest lawyers of the land. I have served three terms In the Legislature of North Carolina, twice the manority leader. 1 believe all told, I am fairly well qualiflttd to represent the people of Madison County in the Legis lature. My enemies among other things state in order to preju dice the minds of the people against me if I return to the Legists-1 ture that I will do things 'to Increase the burden of taxes, this statement is false. :, I , The next Legislature will be very important, among many things to come before the assembly will be the consideration of a new county government system; a proposition tjo abolish our pre sent 8 tate constitution, one of the monuments in this state in hon or of the Republican party, and set op another 'in its stead; ; the sale of the North Carolina Railroad: Workmens Compensation Act, and a score of other matters where it will behoove the Re publican party to be strictly on guard, or retire Indefinitely from the scene of action in this state.. 1 lam elected I pledge the people my very beat ; endeavors to their interest and protection.

An Appreciation of Girls The American home is far from having been throwninto the discard, and the morals of young people of today are not as loose as some re formers would have u s believe. Some girls paint and powder, but no one has seen any of guilty of coun tenancing : the monstrosity that found favor with mothers of the 60,s and 70,s, when they paraded the streets with' the bustle protuber ances. As betwean the girl who pow ders and the woman who wiggled the bustle, give me the girl of to-i day,V;v-v':r::rr"r;:v;7';:.' And again, we see, forms in the shape nature made them, instead of .forms distorted by staves, and hoops, and hair rats. y. There is too much criticism of our girls, who are as "sweet as peaches," and anything, far too good for the censorious men who pose as their superiors.
