TO THE VOTERS OF ALLEGHANY COUNTY: I wish to make the following announcement— that I am the Republican Candidate to the General Assembly of North Carolina. I will say to the good people of Alleghany County, if I am elected in the coming November Election I will not legislate or help legislate any laws that would be a curse to Alleghany County, and before offering any bill, I will consult with the people of Alleghany County, at some fixed date and place, for their best interest. I do honestly believe Alleghany County, should do away with the Primary Elections. They cost the County and Tax Players several hundred dollars and cause so much confusion. We should go back to the old way of holding County Conventions. I also favor doing away with the so-called prov ing witnesses attendant fees by paying the 10c which does not apply in any form to Alleghany's taxes. 1 think we should have an open season on foxes, as they have become so plentiful that they are destroying hundreds of dollars worth of turkeys and chickens as well as other wild game. Both Democrats and Republican Voters—it is your duty and privilege to go out to t|ie polls on November 8th and cast your ballot for your choice candidate. Your supiport will be very gratefully appreciated. I am very sincerely yours, S. S. LANDRETH Mt. Zion Piney Creek P.
