When us Americans fail to elect jour man *for president, we simply jcuss a few blue streaks, and accept | the other party's man.

New York, Oct. 25.—There was little southern selling today, hence the advance of 3 points was met by hedges and private estimates. Tin ges, dog-tails, highs, lows, jack and the game are selling 2*« points off i of December and the bulls are jstradding May and October and are long on next August, therefore, ac cording to A1 Smith’s way of think ing. the wets have a strong chance in 19 and 32 compared with strict mtddltng and Liverpool cables.

They have to be too large to be useful. Riding in one of those big old gas globules is like using a telegraph pole for a walking stick, or sending the baby down on an elephant, or wearing the Lick Observatory telescope for a pair of specks. A dirigible would indeed be a wonderful machine if it weighed less than 1,000 pounds and was no larger than a street car and could bump along at 150 M. P. H-. with 45 passengers. Polities Won’t Help. ! Too much rain next year, and plenty boil weevils, and an abun dance of rust and wheat flies, and jail the droughts possible, plus the scarcity of money with which to: buy fertilisers, and much flu and mumps at seeding time—will fetch prosperity back to this old country, and nothing else will—the farm board, the land banks and the Re i publican party notwithstanding.

I plowed and hoed and rebped and sowed and ran an J engine and a saw-mill and a corn | mill until I was nearly 20 years of I age. My father was strong for all kinds of machinery. Its chief pur Iposc was to keep him poor .--which | u did. ’ One day I decided that 1 ought 1 to learn to be a telegraph operator. I f had finished school (tn about the j eighth grade In a country school' land was right smart In books, so 1 | thought.

I R. H. GRAHAM, j Division Passenger Agent, Charlotte, N. C. and could explain Gettysburg, so I thought. I could master the art ol telegraphy, and thus began my ca reer. I walked 8 miles each day to and from the small-town telegraph of fice. I took my dinner with me every day when I could get it fix ed to take. I kept batch 4 months and did my own cooking. By hard work, I could "send" and "receive” fairly well In about 8 months. My great day came when I was offered a job at a watermelon atatton In the lower part of S. C. I went. My trip away from home was an event In McGee history. Never be fore had a McGee been farther than 20 miles from his birthplace. Be fore I got ready to go, my folks thought they would be glad to get rid of me, but when I pack ed up, they changed their tune. I borrowed $2.50 from my father and dressed up the beat I could with my then Sunday clothes and If there ever was a rube turned loose on the world, I was him. Everybody cried and took on when I got on the train. My new home was 345 miles away a distance now equal to 3 times a round the world and back to Chica go. I held down that job as long as they needed me. Then I started home after an absence of exactly 36 days. I had to pass through a big town and that suited me. I took the 25 dollars I had earned and dolled myself up. I bought my first suit ol underwear, and a pair If striped sox adorned my southern extremities, and the cheap suit I bought ($7.50) dyed mo purple before 1 had gone to miles. Well, I finally got back to my old home and my people. They didn’t know me. I was so dressed up. The boys had never seen a store-bought suit before. My blue hat was a cau tion. I had contracted a now-coun try brogue and they couldnt under stand my language at alL And them sox. And them pink shirt And them green specks. And them patent-lea ther shoes. And them red tie. And them cuff buttons. Folks, I was somethin" to gaze upon. In fact, I Chicago Company Buys Utilities Carolina Coach And Raleigh Gas Company In SO Million Dollar Deal.

LACKEY REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOP i COUNTY COMMISSIONER ] I j ro THE VOTERS OF CLEVELAND COUNTY:— As a Candidate on the Republican Ticket for County Commissioner of Cleveland County, I desire to take this method through the press to let the voters know in advance some of the' vital ills I propose to help correct if you elect me to this office: First. I am opposed to the manager form of govern ment for this county, that is to say, for any one man to be the dictator of our county as the present form now exists, but to restore it back to the commission form where it right fully belongs. Second. 1 will work in favor of the abolishment of the Game Warden of this county, that will eliminate the fee grabbers from harassing the people, as I feel that seventy two deputy sheriffs are a sufficient number to look after the game laws now written on the statutes. - ' ■ ■ ■">' ■■ ■ ■ Third. I whole-heartedly favor the abolishment of the! Welfare Officer of Cleveland County, and save this $1700.00 that rightfully belongs to the tax payers, and refer cases of this nature to the County Board of Commissioners for dis position, who will co-operate with Boards of Charity. Fourth. Also, 1 want to go on record as favoring a reasonable assessment for farm land and other real estate In this County as our people feel that our land and other property wras assessed at value while we were passing through a period of inflation. Fifth. 1 am in favor of our Sheriff supervising the making up of the tax books and save the tax payers this $1000.00 per year, as the Sheriff is well paid for his service as will entail no burden on him. Sixth. 1 further pledge to use my influence to abolish any unnecessary offices that the people have no part in creating Seventh. If 1 am elected, I will serve the best interest of all the people and ask your vote and influence regardless of political affiliations. Yours very truly, R. A. LACKEY Power Plants To Go Over To S. P.
