Hopeful Of Victory
Dave Buck, Yancey Leader, Making
Tour For Bailey. To Sweep
10th District.
“The chances of a victory ior Mr.
Bailey over Senator Simmons in the
Democratic primary in June are
bright Just now and seem to be im
proving,” Mr. Dave Buck, of Yancey
county, one of the state’s best
known political leaders, said while
on a visit to Shelby yesterday.
Mr. Buck, a Democratic leader for
years, has been over much of the
state in the interest of the Bailey
cause, particularly having travelled
over the ninth and tenth congres
will be swept by Bailey he declar
ed, prospects indicating that Bailey
will carry every county in the dis
trict with the exception of Ruther
ford. There, it was said, Bailey’s
chances are good under the in
fluence of the Ku Klux Klan for
Simmons is greater than estimated.
The ninth district, he said, looks
better for the Raleigh man than
was anticipated in view of the fact
that it is the Industrial center of
the Southern Power Interests.

Dr. T. G. Hamrick, Saintly Doctor
Succumbs Here—-Funeral Today
Funeral Services at 2:30 at First
Baptist Cburch Today. Estab
lished First Hospital.
The funeral of Dr. T. <5 Hamrick
is being held this afternoon at 2:30
o’clock at the First Baptist church
where he was a faithful and conse
crated member for 20 years, the serv
ices being conducted by his pastor,
Dr. Zeno Wall. Interment will be in
Sunset cemetery.
Dr. Hamrick died at 10:30 Monday
night at the Shelby hosiptal where
he had been a patient for a week
after a decline in health of a year
or more. He was born at .Boiling
Springs December 7th, 1854 and at
the time of his death was 75 years,
six months and seven days old. At
the age of 37 he took up the study
of medicine at the College of Physi
cians and Surgeons in Baltimore
and was graduated from that insti
tution in 1895.
Built First Hospital.
After his graduation he practiced
medicine at Caroleen for 15 years
and there he had the confidence ana
esteem of all who knew him. In 1910
he came to Shelby and establishol
the first hospital in this county, in
vesting the savings of his 15 years
strenuous practice in this institu
tion provided for the relief of suf
fering humanity Although the hos
pital was not a financial success. Dr.
Hamrick’s fine spirit is shown in the
remark he often made, “I lost my
investment for the sake of human
ity, but if I had it to go over again
I would do it again.”
Exponent of Christianity.
“Dr. Hamrick was the finest ex
ponent of Christianity I have ever
known,” said Dr, Wall his pastor
who knew him most intimately
This appraisal of him is concurred
in by all who knew Dr. Hamrick
For forty years he was a deacon in
the Baptist church and began teach
ing Sunday school classes at the
age of 19 years. Religion was not
Just a Sunday pose for him. He lived
the religion that Christ taught ev
ery day in the week and was a most
faithful, consecrated man, sympa
thetic, kind and lovable.

Wins Big Tax Suit

dict Favoring County Against
Mill.
In a decision handed down
this week at Washington the
United States supreme court

Rutherford county In regards
to taxes assessed in 1927 against

the company insisted that it did
not exceed approximately 51,
890,000.
The case was first tried In

ing Rutherford county. An ap
peal was carried to the Circuit
Court of Appeals at Richmond
and there the original verdict
was sustained. The mill attor
neys then carried case to the
nation's highest court with the

that the auiftt will be made pub
lic the minute completed as It is
necessary for the audit report to
be forwarded to Raleigh for of
ficial cheek, after which It will
be returned here and entered
on the public record* at the

ing for the car today were prices

Shelby Man’s Candidacy For Superior Court
Judgeship Gains Strength Over The District
Papers In Other Counties Say
Cleveland Man Should Not
Win. Falls Pleased
The candidacy of Judge B. T.
Falls, of Shelby, for the super
ior court judgeship In the 16th
judicial district, has gained re
markable strength within the
last fortnight, it is adjudged by
a geographical attack made
upon the Shelby barrister and
also by encouraging support
tendered him in a tour of the
district.
Last week one Catawba paper
declared that the judcial con- J
test had already sinunered down
to a race between Mr. Falls and
Attorney Wilson Warlick, and
urged Catawba voters to con
centrate their strength upon one i
Catawba county candidate. This
urge was emphasized by listing
Cleveland county citizens who
now hold public office.
During the same week Hickory
and Lenoir papers, admitting
indirectly that Mr. Falls would
be the strongest candidate for
the three other candidates to
defeat, appealed to voters of the
district to support one of the
other candidates rather than
divide their strength, and see
another Cleveland county eiti- ,
wn go into office.
Admit Ills Ability.
The Lenoir paper, however,
spoke highly of Mr. Falls’ ex
perience and ability as a bar
rister and his unquestioned rep
utation as a Christian gentle
man and a close student of
mankind. The Hickory paper,
likewise, expressed the view that
the Shelby man could and
would, if elected, measure up to
the requirements of the office,
but pled for sOpport of a Cat
awba candidate rather thau a
division of strength among the
others which would aid the
Shelby man if lie, as seems like
ly, receives a big portion of his
home county vote.

Shelby Highs
Win 9th Game
i Harrelson Leads Singeing Slielbyite*
To Victory. Mayhew Stars
At Short.
The Shelby highs made it nine
victories out of 11 games, and eight
wins out of nine high school games,
yesterday by defeating CherryvtUe
at Cherryvllle by a 6-3 score.
With Day berry, the young port
slder on the mound, Charley Har
relson, slugging first sacker, led
Shelby’s hitting barrage to assure a
victory. In four trips to the plate
Harrelson cracked out a triple, dou
ble and single. Joe PhUbeck secur
ed three hits, one a double, out of
five trips up, and Shorty McSwatn
and Mayhew secured two hits each,
both of Mayhew's line drives going
for two bases while one of Shorty's
counted for a two-base swat. Capt.
Harris also secured a double.
Coach Casey Morris started a
new line-up against Cherryville and
the new shift worked so smooth'y
that It may be used here today
against Lowell and perhaps for the
remainder of the season. Mayhew,
whose hitting has strengthened the
team, was at short instead of Rlppy,
who went to his old berth lu ccn
terfield, and the new shortstop
celebrated the change by handling
six chances, several of them of the
tough variety, without a bobble.
Wilson started the game as a reg
I ular outfielder instead of Smith.
Tn the last half of the ninth the
Shelby team pulled some very sen
sational baseball which came very
near resulting in a triple play. Cher
ryville got two runners on without
a single out and Sherrill Hamrick
relieved Dayberrv. Immediately he
shot one strike by the next batter
up, then shoved over another. At
that Juncture Capt. Parris whipped
the ball to first to catch the runner
there napping, and after tagging
that runner out Harrelson whipped
the ball on over to third to catch
the other runner who was trying
to advance a base on the play. Per
a time due to the speed and sur
prise of the play the impression pre
vailed that the Morrlsmen had pull
ed a triple play, many thinking that
It was a third strike, Instead of the
second, on which Farris caught *he
runner off first. Hamrick soon end
ed It, however, with another strike,
pitching to only one man to retire
the side with no one out when he
took the mound.
Pats Williams came chugging
back Into the game when be wont
in as a pinch-hitter for Johnny
Hendrick in the ninth and singled.

Straw Hats Appear
Here, Court Square
Trees Filling Out
Four consecutive days with the
mercury Climbing Above 80 degrees
have wrought remarkable changes
In Bhelby.
From Friday until Tuesday Shel
bys famous court, square completely
changed garb. taking on a green,
leavy dress—long skirled, of course
—to supplant the drab, gray trunks
which were bared to the public eye
by the short and abbreviated styles
of winter. Within another week or
so, with buds and leaves on nearly
all of the stately court square trees,
j the court square will have reached
its peak tn beauty, rivalled only by
| winter scenes at night when the
j trees are blanketed in tee with the
j lighted court house In the back
i ground.
! Another transformation wrought
by the warm spell is the appearance
on Shelby streets of a half dozen
or more men wearing straw hats.
They are so rare as yet, however,
that the wearers attract attention.
Yesterday the mercury climbed to
32 degree.* to equal last Saturday
and to be only two degrees under
the 84 record of Sunday.

Keeping lYrunnal Property Off,
Newton Says, May Add to
IToperty Tax.
The more personal property the
citizens and tax listers o£ Cleveland
county get on their books this week
the better It will be for the tax rate
on real estate, according to an an
nouncement made today by W. R,
Newton, county tax supervisor, aft
er receiving a letter from Chas, M,
Johnson, of the state advisory com
mission.
There has been a tendency In
Cleveland county In recent years, It,
Is generally known to hold off list
ing personal property as much as
possible. A county's revenue must
come from somewhere, the advisory
commission points out, and when
personal property values keep de
creasing the threat of added taxes
on land Is apparent,.
No Tax Boost.
| There is no outward Indication of
a higher tax rate for Cleveland ooun
ty. according to A. E. Cline, chair
man of the county comtnlslsoners,
who agrees with the views of Mr.
Johnson and Tax Supervisor New
ton But Mr. Cline points out that
the hope Tor a tax cut In the future
| Is automatically lessened when the
I valuation of personal property con
i Unties to decline.
Johnson's Advice.
In order that this point may be
made clearer the letter of Mr. John
son to all tax supervisors and listers
Is published ns follows:
Several Inquiries have ' reached
this office with respect to how prop
erty shall be placed on the tat
books where it has not been listed
by the owner or his agent. I, there
fore, write you on the subject so
11 ri»L you muy pass me lmormauon
to your tax listers and suggest that
you call this to the attention of your
local newspaper In order that prop
erty owners may be put cm notice
and escape the penalty for the fail
ure to list their property, since there
Is an impression la some places that
since real property is only valued
every four years that It is not neces
sary to list it every year and that
the tax listers can carry forward
real property from preceding year
! to the tax list of the current year,
! where the owner does not perform
j his duty by actually listing it. This
is not Igal and If it is handled In
this way, the sale of real property
lor taxes cannot be supported.
