The senatorial contest in North
Carolina for Senator Simmons seat
Is going to be no tame affair, now
that four OF the very ablest and most
popular men in the State have enter
ed the race, and instead of having an
OF year in politics, as many had hop
ed wonld be the case, we are to have
one OF the hardest fought contests
the State has witnessed in many
years.

1t was just like Durham to fly into
a jealous rage, when she found out
she was to have no part or lot in the
new railroad, and try to break it up
by arresting and annoying the pro-
moters of the scheme. Had the new
road been coming to Durham, no
one there would have thought of the
speed limit.
Henderson gold leaf. [volume] (Henderson, N.C.) 1911-19??, 1911-05-25

Says one OF the Durham papers:
"Those Greensboro gentlemen should
not attempt to race through a town
that has houses on both sides OF the
street." 1t might have said SHOULD
not race through town that has
no streets, but only narrow alleys"

Mr.. Aycock's friends may have
seemed just little more backward
than he liked, and so he decided to
get in the race and do some running
on his own account. In this he has
acted wisely, for the man who de-
ponds too much upon his friends in
this day and time is liable to get
left.

Let's not forget to remember, as
we go along sweltering and melting
during these hot days, that one of
the crying needs OF this city is a nice,
cool park, to which the ladies and

and recreation. Now is the time to
start the ball rolling for the park,
while the need OF it must be plainly
apparent to every thoughtful citizen.

In his address before the American
Cotton Manufacturers Association
at Richmond last week, President D.
7. Cooper said the cotton crop OF
191O-'11would be worth 81 900, 900,
600, or twice as much as the output OF
all the gold mines of the world combin-
ed Tor the same year. Mr.. Cooper is
man who makes careful, conserva-
tive figures on all subjects that he
deals with, and his conclusion in this
instance Is based upon facts.
Henderson gold leaf. [volume] (Henderson, N.C.) 1911-19??, 1911-05-25

If conditions continue favorable
from now on, everything points to a
bumper cotton crop the coming sea-
son. From all reports there is a
very large increase in the cotton
acreage all over the South, and in
addition to this fact intensive farm
ing methods will be practiced more
extensively this year than ever before.
The State Department OF Agriculture
estimates that the cotton acreage in
North Carolina this season will be
1922, 800, an increase OF about 8
per cent. over that OF last year. In
view of these facts he is wise
farmer who has arranged to raise
his "hog and hominy" at home this
year, and it is possibly not yet too
late for Others to follow suit.
