Small and Second Payments.
Subscribers whom you have ap-
preached at the beginning of the con-
test and who have obliged you with
new subscriptions for three or six
months, have no doubt by this time
become convinced of the value of the
investment they made in subscribing
to Western Carolina Democrat and
Hustler, and are anxious to continue
their subscriptions. Go to these peo-
pie and have them pay you the bal
ance on a years subscription and Sc
cure the additional votes, as such sub
scribers will always be considered new
subscribers during the life of the con-
test For example: A person who
subscribed, for three months and paid
25c receives ESQ votes; by getting this
person to pay the balance on years
subscription, 75c, you are entitled to
1,500 votes on a years subscription,
less the $50 already received on the
- - I'm oil iaf
To any second payment you may Sc
cure, hut in all euaaes three months or
more must be secured to entitle you
to the additional votes. When sending
in such subscriptions always mark the
stubs second payment"
In many cases contestants will find
prospective subscribers who have paid
in advance for another paper, and do
not wish to have two papers coming
into their homes at the same time, al
though they desire to assist the candi-
date of their acquaintance in every
way possible In order that contest
ants may secure the advantages Of
such subscriptions, the Contest De-
partment has arranged to accept all
such subscriptions and issue votes on
them if the orders are accompanied by
the necessary money to cover them,
but these subscriptions will be held for
delivery at any future time designated
by the subscriber.
What Contestants Should Remember.
The difference of few thousand
votes is not a wide margin. 1t Is a
small gap that may be closed up by
securing a yearly or six months sub
scription and those who are behind by
such small number of votes should
not for a moment think that they are
out of the race, but should keep on
with renewed vigor. Arace is never
ended until the time the last competi-
tor to win has passed. This game
is never over until the last man is
out. Many great enterprises would
never have been started had the or
ganizers or promoters Of them given
away to such thoughts. Keep up with
the contest and make 1t your deter
mination to win, and success cannot
help but come to you.

Opportunity Period.

The yote-total of various contest
ants shows plainly in the standings as
published in this paper, and many who
appeared to be out of the race have
come from behind with a rush, and
rapidly climbed up near the top, all in
the course Of q single week
This proves conclusiYely that even
those who STRAIT after to-day have an
excellent chance to come out In the
winning class, as but a few subacrip-
ations will yet serve to plaza any. can
,didate on top. In many cases the late
starters, those who do not start work
ing until the contest is half or more
than half over, prove the winners Of
the biggest prizes. OF course, they are
obliged to put forth little more ef-
fort for q time than those who started
when the contest, was inaugurated, but
even then they prove their determina-
ton by refusing to be stopped by the
difference of few thousand votes and
eventually win. A candidate with the
right sort of determination is the one
who always proves winner and those
who STRAIT late show their refusal to be
downed when they go against the han
dicap of votes that the first one have
over them. If you want to win and
intend to do so, it makes no difference
when you start. The spirit and en-
ergy are the things that count
For The Later Starters.
Have you who have just started or
have done but little so far stopped to
consider that but one or two yearly
subscriptions will put you in the lead
today? Probably the work you have
done this week has Convinced you of
this; if not, it should at least have
demonstrated to you that your chances
are as good as those of any other can
didate no matter how far ahead of you
they may be- Although the contest is
almost half over, no one contestant has
spurted so far in front that she cannot
be overtaken, and little effort put
forth and put forth in manner to con-
vince yourself and those who are help
ing you that you are in earnest in Sc
curing subscriptions, will put you on
an equal footing with the topmost one.
If you have not yet started there is
still plenty of time to win one OF these
manginfcent awards. Figure 1t out for
yourself. Take today's paper and see
how many votes the leaders have, then
look up the scale of votes and you will
be surprised to see what few sub
scriptions will do. You have the
friends who will be glad to assist yous
In fact, some of them have likely of
fered their assistance ALREADY and
many others have been sending in
votes for you daily. This contest is
different from most affairs of the kind
and the prizes are of the highest class
and all worth the efforts Of any young
woman, no matter what position sne
occupies i'm the scale of society. Get
busy now. Only few more hours or
effort will place you in the lead. These
prizes are going to be given away aD.
solutely free to the young woman OF
Western North Carolina and all that Is
necessary to become the recipient OF
one of them Is to poll the largest NUM-
Der of votes during the contest, or be
one of the first three In your district.
To do this you need the support Of your

WORK PROGRESSING
 ON DUNN HILL ROAD

County Judge J. w. Holt spent yes terday inspecting the work of improv- ing the road through Acklin Gap and over the Dunn Hill, which he states is progressing rapidly. The roa d through the gap is being put in per feet condition and will be finished in a few days. Some difficulty is being experienced in adopting right of way over the Dunn Hill, adjacent property-owners and the road officials being unable to agree as to which is the best route, but Road Commiss- toner w. R. McHenry said route would be decided upon to day and work on this portion of the road would begin at once.

Actors frequently receive unexpect- ed proof of the realism of their art. Not long ago, on the occasion of the performance of Hamlet" by distin- guished English playen there were no more interested and absorbed specta- tors than two newsies in the gallery.
 The boys had been watching the performance with breathless interest. The last act was drawing to a close. The duel almost dragged the lads from their seats.
 Before their eyes the queen was poisoned, Lartes killed, the king killedr Hamlet killed. On the final tragedy the curtain started down. The audi ence was spellbound.
 In the gallery there was a chatter Derell be extras out on dis !'-Har- and a crash as one of the boys men, toned started for the door.

CANNOT DODGE
 CORPORATION TAX
ATTY. GEN. MOOSE RULES
TENNESSEE COMPANY WARE
 HOUSING GOODS IN ARKAN- SAS IS HELD LIABLE.

Little Rock, Aug. 22.-In the opin- ion of Attorney General Moose, a for eign corporation cannot evade the ob- legations of the Arkansas law by run ming the business in another state, but maintaining a warehouse in Arkansas. from which shipments are made. The question was propounded by Memphis lawyers, Hirch & Goodman, who cited the case of a Tennessee wholesale grocery company which ships goods into Arkansas and stores them in warehouses belonging to a third party. Their drummers then take orders, which are sent through the Memphis house to the warehouse directing the shipment of the goods to the purchaser. The corporation main tains no office or place of business in Arkansas, and the goods are used in filling orders as the travelling men usually send them in.
 In giving his opinion on the ques- ton, Judge Moose says: Ut is my opinion that the corporation thus transacting business in Arkansas is liable to the penalties of our corpora tion law for noncompliance with it's requirements. In my opinion the cor poration you mention is doing an in tra-state business when it gives an or der to it's warehouseman in Arkansas to ship goods to merchants in Arkan- sas, the shipment being wholly within the state.
 "Your Memphis corporation is as suming to have the right to take ad- vantage of the corporations in Arkan- sas engaged in the same business, by placing it's goods here in convenient place, where it can successfully com pete with the local corporations, and at the same time be exempt from the burdens that are placed by the stat utes upon the local corporations. l think the courts would not permit foreign corporation to do so."

young bolls are opening prematurely. In Oklahoma the grade of cotton brought to market is said to be rather poor.
 Hot, dry weather prevailed over most of the eastern belt during the last fortnight, with resultant deter ioration in Tennessee, Mississippi and Alabama. The loss in Mississippi and Louisiana was greatly augmented by boil weevil, the second matching of which is infesting the fields and doing much damage. In Georgia and the Carolinas the plant about held it's own during the month and prospects are still bright in those states for a splendid crop
 In many places in the west it is contended that rains will not be of benefit should they fall soon, but in most sections correspondents are of the opinion that good rains would greatly add to the yield. The ex- tremely hot weather and the very dry soil tended to minimize the benefit ac- cruing from recent scattered showers in Texas.
 Owing to the dry, hot weather, cot ton is opening fast and picking prom ises soon to become general. Farm CTS are placing the lint of the mark ct as soon as ginned. Labor, general ly speaking, IS ample.

FINDS PENALTY FOR
 VIOLATING NEW ACT
PUBLICATION OF EXECUTION DETAILS MAY BE PUNISHED
 UNDER C"NERAL LAW.

Little Rock, ..ag. 26.-The ap- preach of Sept. ,, when the first cleo trocution is to occur under the new law passed by the legislature of 1913 finds the newspapers of the state in a quandry The act declares that newspapers shall not print the de- tails of the executions, but no penal
 y is prescribed for violation of the aw. This has been interpreted by some to mean that the law is prac- tically a dead letter, and that the newspapers may proceed to publish whatever they please.
 But Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Kidder, one of the joint authors of the act, calls attention to the follow ing section of the digest which, he says, applies to the case.
 Section 2447. Where the D. rform- ance of any act is prohibited, or the performance of any act is required by any statute, and no penalty for the violation of such statute is imposed, either in the same section containing such prohibition or requiring such act or duty, or in any other section or statute, the doing of such prohibited act or the neglect of such required act or duty, shall be deemed mis- demeanor.
 Section 244S. Every person who shal be convicted of any misdemeanor, the punishment of which is not de- fined in this or some other statute, shall be punished by Imprisonment not exceeding one year, or by fine not exceeding two hundred and fifty dol lars, or by fine and imprisonment both"

Editor Log Cabin Democrat:
 I have been attending the boys en- campment school at Little Rock, given by the Arkansas Fertilizer Company. We had a nice time and heard some good lectures. We had three lectures in the morning and two in the even- ing. We had lectures on soils and fer tilizers, livestock, cotton, corn, horti- culture, alfalfa, peas and peanuts.
 We went down to a jewelry store and heard a lecture on diamonds. We visited the state capitol, the fire de- partment, the roundhouse, electric light plant, Forrest park, the city park and other places. We had free street car and an automobile ride. We had the use of the Little Rock College and gymnasium and dormitory, located at Twenty-fifth and Gaines streets.
 There were 113 boys there, but a few went home before school closed. We were in charge of Prof. w. J. Jer- nigan and were instructed by Profs. Hewitt, Thompson, Ruzek, Lassettef, Becker and Dr. Cow.
