E. l.. CRENSHAW
announces his candidacy for the posi-
! ton of county auditor.
BY permission Mr.. Horton ex-
planned that it was not his fault that
people did not make their returns.
That he published the usual notice,
calling for returns. Those that did
not make their returns regularly did
not escape taxation, for their names
appeared on the additional list and
paid taxes just as the others.
BY permission reply was flowed
MIR. Porter. He insisted that inr.
Horton had not done his duty in the
office. II he had, there would not
have appeared so many "sdditiopals."

In favor of good roads and if elect
ed, will give the people the best roads
that the funds will allow. In the past
the roads have cost from 80 to $40 per
mile With $50 o. $40 to the mile
under the new road law, thinks he
can give good roads. Would do away
with ground bridges by the use of
tiling Would hire the convicts to
the nearest road contractors, instead
of sending them to Chester county at
a considerable expense to the county
Nothing more important than good
roads. Would see that good, kind
man was kept in charge of the poor
house and inmates
L. PERRY
seeks reelection to the office of County
Supervisor, which he has held for the
past two years. Thanks for the sup
port given him. The office more i'm
portant even than that of Senator
from the county, having, as it does,
the supervision of the finances of the
county. Served four years in the war
between the States. few more
years and he shall pass to the great
beyond. Now is the time to honor
him if il is ever 10 be done HIS duty
to put into effect the new road law.
Why put some other man in the office
to get the law to working properly?
should be allowed MI opportunity to
test the law fully. Past experience
j n the Office has better fitted him for
the position. The county is in good
condition-thaukst to the assistance of
the two honorable gentlemen associ-
ated with him in the office.
81. FUNDERBURK,
candidate for County Supervisor. Re-
CARDS il as one of the most important
offices in the county. Under the new
law there viii be $50 or $35 per mile
and with this amount thinks a great
improvement could be made on the
roads The people in Union county,
n. c., work the roads and do not con-
tent themselves with talking about
the roads More work and less talk
is what we need in our county. Thinks
il is time to give the office to someone
else. No one Is more in favor of good
roads than he lis. If elected he will
have no pets but do his full duty re-
gardless of whom it hurts or helps
Honestly believes that he has been
influenced by the Almighty in aspir-
ing for this office. He is tired of hav-
ing the adjoining counties throwing
sIurs at our roads A great number
of our eastern county people do their
trading in Monroe on account OF the
good roads leading to that town.
G.. l. MOBLEY,
a stranger to some. Would refer to
the people of Heath Springs for in
formation as to who and what he is
Is in favor of good roads. In COM
muniIies where the roads and schools
are poor, we find the people moving
into the towns. If elected he will
carry out the law to the best of his
