C FRIDAY, JUNE 30th, 1922. , No 71 m I MM- A ING ' BEFE AT GEO WS MECKILESS WITH TEE TOOTe. Mr Hendricks continues to paw the air like a blind oj and holler-big and loud about Ring, Ring, Ring In last week's paper I discussed J.his King propaganda throughly; and asked Mr. Hen dricks' to name the crowd lie has been quarreling fi much about. Friends,' why doesn't he name them? Simply because he would have to Dttme over half of his good neighbors who voted against him; and I presume he does not want to get so personal and bring his mud stinging so close home. He says all that has been written over my signature has been cofnpiled by this awful Ring. Now Mr.' Hendricks knows that this is a falsehood out of lho whole cloth. . I have writtenevery word of every article I have signed ard I stand squarely behind every statement that has been made in this paper over my name. 1 1 have conducted my own campaign and have tried to keep it clean and fair; but Mr. Hendricks has seen fit to attack me unfairly and I have been forced ' to defend my self. . ' " - . -''.'.' ' The most plaring injustice that Hendricks has yet perpetrated; the most absurd and redicilous campaign ROT that he has .yet! broQght into existence, is the stuff he is putting out to the effect that if I went-to the Legislature I would pass a law prohibiting Country Stores from selling medicine. He hasn't anything Iegi mate left to fijjht me with; so he stoops so low as to tell the people that J have, a Uncle in the Drug business at Hot Springs and if I am elected I am going to pass a law wherby MEDICINE can only be bought at Deng Stores; and to finish this absurd cbncoction of Annacias most famous mixlure he sajs to favor theJDcctors; I am going to pass a law tCprohibit Mid-Wives from practicing. Friends, this k almost to absdrd to think anyone Would believeflou't Fwant to say that it is 'one of the BLACKEST of its kind ever put out. I never even thought or heard of it until Mr. Hendricks and his henchmen n Marshall started it. In last weeks-paper, I succeeded in getting Mr. Hendricks up to his neck-In the mire about trying totget around the 5 Limit Law and place upon. the tax ridden people of this County another $150,000, Bond Issue. I uuderstand that he is going to try to ans wer this by placing all Responsibility upon his campaign manager, Mr. George McKinney; and supporting it by affidavit from this gentleman. Now- friends isn't this a -fine kettle of fish? Mr. Mc Kinney throws . his sheltering wings around his County Attorney and Bays -'No, No, lit didnVdoit.' We pay him for his advise but it isn't worth much; so I generally proceed on my own judg ment. If this is the way things are conducted in our Commission ers room; what J Mr. Hendricks worth to the County as an At torney? lie should ho MAN enough to stand by his opinions and protect the legal intrrcst,of our people in the face of all opposition or RESIGN. f, I understand tlu'y have reserected the Plato Ebbs story again. I hart denied this repeatedly, but still they keep putting it out. I want to say agin tint I hardly know Mr. Ebbs; have noi seen him since fastsumiier and never talked to him in my life about poll- ' ft '.. ' V, tics. - If he has been in Madison County, or contemplates coming; I know nothing about in and care less. jWhenlgoto the Legis lature I will not align myself with no Democrat. I will be. just as strong a Republican there as Tam here; and I will only work for and support such measures that would be to the best interest of all our people. I understand, Mr. Hendricks is telling the people in his speeches that if he is elected he will call a meeting of the Far mers and ascertain what they want. Friend Farmer, he is kindly softening up toward you now, Isin't he? Has he come to the con elusion that we really have some' sensible thinking farmers? It has not been two months since he said that there wasn't a Farmer in the County that had enough sense to draw a bill that would pass muster. , 5' v Another campaign falsehood that is being circulated is that I am going to appoint Mr. 8. Chandley Tax Collector. I want to deny this emphatically as Xnever even thought of such "a thing. -The latest atidnost interesting thiig I have heard is the gos sip that is going around that if this election does not go just right for Mr. McKinney, that Mr Hendricks has agreed to appoint two additional members of tfie Hoard of County. Commissioners, inak- -- ' ing a total of five. .Good people, we have had this experience once, do you want a repetition of it? Friends I appeal to you to think seriously of the combination that is trying to defeat me and to go out to the poles Saturday and cast your vote for PAUL E. BRUCE. My record is clean. With all the methods known to. cheap politics they have found nothing on which to attack my character. I served my country dur ing the war and I am a member of the American Legion and I am sure the seven or eight hundred membecs we have in this County will rally loyally to my support. I fully believe that th system of campaigning thit some f Mr. Hendricks henchmen are putting up to defeat me will prove as futile at the voting places next SATURDAY as the CRUCIFIXION of CHRIST to prevents spread of CHRI STIANITY. . , - ; Assuring jou of my lasting appreciation for all you may do to help me win, 1 am, Yours Sincerely, ' PAUL E. BRUCE. VOTE For BRUCE I jtBHMBtXatZZZSISMBt American Legion Strong For BRUCE . The American Legion is non partisan. We arc non-sectarion. We, have views and we express them when the time comes. We the writers of this article have heard h e ABUSE of Paul E. Bruce as long as we care to. . We have heard and read the press and dope in re gard to our Buddy who is in the race f o r representative. We ' have gone .to him- and he has fully informed and satisfied us that he is not a ring man." Nor is he"BbssedH by any " clique or any person or persons. : Paut E. Bruse, reared on, the farm and still lives there. A t't eVn d e d School hv Mars Hill and at the university of North Carolina. A The country called him and he entered into service. His re cord shows heinade a good sol dier. He ' has the educational qualification to be our represen tative and he has the inanhood to, stand behindTiis. convictions. Mr.' Jonn Hendricks, Jiis oppo nent, says he. was inthe Y. M. C A. Corps. He has preached it and written aout Jt ever since he entered this campaign. He futher boasts of the. fact that he has helped the ex-service man, so much Whatever help he has given we thanlC him and we wish him to ; know that he has been paid for it. 1 T H E RED - CROSS pays him he handles. Then he makes a charge of as high as $25.00 to the person helped. AH of this we haye kepted to our-selves untill he abused one of us, - till we know he would do the same to any of us that would stand in his way. We want the peo ple to know that it is a fact that the department of Justice un dtr the Veterans Bureau Sent one of their men here to' inves tigate the fact of his " charging the ex-service men. Too there was another person-started here and an ex-service man stopped them from coming. H& (Mr. Hendricks) knows these a r e FACTS. If Bruce, was not capable of representing us in the Legislature w e certainly would not be with him. If we doubted his honosty in the least we would not stand to him. Now Lets See. Mr. Hendricks says he w,ants to go 'for the Honor there is to it, he says he will be $1000.00 better off if he does not go. He has been elected thfCe'times already, and from his own records he is out $3000- 00 outside of time. Now ex service men what must we do ? Lets leave Mr. Hendricks keep his money and his time lets let one of our BUDDIE'S try it, and if he is not a man we will forever be through with him. 1 COMRADE BRUCE knows nothing of this letter and we are paying for the insertion.

Pope of the Marshall post office says that the sustained popularity of Government Savings Securities in the Fifth Federal Reserve District is indicated by a report just received from Howard T. Cree, government director of savings for the district. Ac cording to the director, the people of this district invested in nearly three-fourths of a million dollars worth f Treas ury Savings Certificates during the month of May. The exact figures compiled from two hun dred and sixteen post offices and in t h e Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond are $718,683 This is a highly favorable con trast; with the receipts from the sale of savings securities in May, 1921, which were only $101,293. The amount of these certifi cates sold in May, 1922, for each state is as follows: Virginia $159,275: West Virginia $153,625; vestment will increase 25 per cent in the five years. This is an exhibition of financial wis dom, which should be imitated by thousands of others who, in vain hope of getting rich quick, put their savings in schemes of questionable character, when there is no certainty of return of either principal or interest. It is better to be' sure than, sorry." the undersigned has sold his en tire enterest i rl the firm o f Hutchinson and Gibson to K. C. Hutchinson and H. L.
