BARN YARD CREATURES
 ARE NOT STUPID
Acts With Gentry Bros. Shows
 Demonstrate Libel of Sheep s4, And Pigs.

For generations the pig, the goat and the sheep were consid- cred the most stupid animals. The trainers with Gentry Broth ers' Famous Shows, however, have disproven the libel. With Gentry Bros. Shows, which will visit this city next Friday, Sep- tember 11th, is a complete troupe of trained pigs, sheep and goats.
 If you ask the trainers why these creatures are considered the most stupid, the tutor will say it is because those who ex- pounded the theory were not pa- tlent enough in training.
 Trained dogs, rolling barrels, climbing through hoops, etc, are common, but with Gentry Brothers Famous Shows is a troupe of barn yard animals that do this and more. The scope of animals which Gentry Brothers trainers have educated runs from the lowly swine of the barn yard to the leopard and ele- phant of India. Their wild ani- mai feature, which is presented in the big show, is said by train CTS to be the most marvellous act ever presented to the public. A Gentry Brothers Famous Shows carry many European novelty acts, seen this season for the first time in America. Gentry Brothers Shows will give two exhibitions in this city, Friday, September 11th.

New York, Nov. 3.-Sweeping re-
publican gains throughout. the coun-
try, which reached climax in this
state by the Overwhelming victory OF
Charles S. Whitman for governor and
jones w. Wadsworth to succeed Eli
hu Root in the United States senate
were indicated tonight in early re-
turns of the election.
Heavy falling off Of the progress
sive vote in many states, the return
to congress of former Speaker Joseph
c., Cannon, decisive republican gains
IN New York and Illinois in the house
membership, and the overwhelming
defeat of Representative A. Mitchell
Palmer by Senator Boies Penrose in
Pennsylvania were features Of the
early returns.
Democratic leaders, however, were
pleased by a triumph in Massachu-
setts where former Representative
Samuel w. Mccall was defeated for
the goVernorship by Governor Walsh.
Early returns indicated that the
democrats would retain control Of con-
gress with approximately no change
in the senate majority but by a decid-
edly reduced majoritfes in the house.
At aslate hour results in Illinois, In
diana, California and Colorado as to
the senatorship were in doubt.

ACCIDENTS CHARGED TO LIQUOR.

Chicago, Oct. 15.-Sixty per cent of
the Industrial accidents in the United
States are charged to liquor, r. L..
Palmer, chief inspector of the Penn
sylvania department of labor and in
dustry, told delegates to the national
congress for industrial safety today.
"It will not be long," the speaker
said, 'before the saloon will be as
much separated from the Industrial
plant as it is now from the church.
AS a matter of business we will have
to furnish workmen better entertain
ment than saloons do"
E. K. Pritchett, representing man
ufacturing concern of Grand Rapids,
Mich, said that after employees had
been forbidden to use alcoholic bever-
ages arrangements were made for
milk wagons to call at the factories.
Eve permitted the men to stop work
and go and buy fresh bottles of milk"
Mr. Pritchett said. 1--WE found this
arrangement practically has solved
the drinking problem"

victory as a result of the personality
and the fine campaign work done by

Great interest was taken in the cleo

work done by both sides, there was

there was considerable drinking.
Soon after the polls closed the vot-
erS began to gather around both re-
publican and democratic headquarters,
ne former being in Armory hall and
tEe latter at the Democrat office, where
the people were so thickly crowded
as to make it uncomfortable for them
until about II o'clock.
The vote for Gudger fell below that
received by him two years ago In
henderson county. With all the pre-
cncts heard from except Bowman's
Bluff, Mr.. Gudger received 1,551 votes

no more to do than hog has for holy
water" Mr.. Grant went on to say
that Mr.. Gudger would have been
much more successful had he always
treated his opposition among both
democratic and republican ranks with
fairness. He attributes his defeat to
misrepresentation followed by un-
eQuivocal exposure Of Mr.. Britt.

only republican upon whom the pro-
gressiyes and republicans could have
united sufficiently to defeat Mr.. Gud-

CT this district by handsome ma
jority.
He claims. the following counties:
Henderson, $50 majority; Transylva-
MIA, 3O;s Mcdowell, 25 or 80. He con-
eedes Rutherford to Mr.. Schenck by
75. Judge Blythe says that he had
figured on Solicitor Schenck leading in
Yancey, from which he has had no re-
turns, but in the event the latter gets
majority of 100 there, Judge Blythe
claims election by safe majority.
The detailed vote in the county is
too long and tedious to permit of
publication in the Democrat this week,
but the following vote for congress
sraan and solicitor is given in order.
that people may know how the vote
stood and varied by scratching. The
county democratic ticket ran nearly
like that of solicitor there being
few slight changes at the different
boxes. A few democratic constables
and magistrates were elected in some
of the townships.

Advertising Expert Tells Why Mer-
chants Should Not Curtail Ad-
VertIs1ng During the War.

Witt K. Cochrane, well known ad-
vertising agent Of Chicago, thus clev-
erly "sizes up" the advertising situa-
ton in America:
1t is inconceivable that any mer-
chant or manufacturer should cease
or even curtail-his advertising just
when the country is on the threshold
OF a tremendous double harVest-the
natural harvest of our own unprece-
dented. crops and the logical harvest
consequent on the war in Europe.
"It is under such conditions as these
that advertising reaches the zenith
of it's power. The man who listens to
the yellow pessimist and sits back to
wait for things to settle down. is
yielding his common sense and en-
terprise to the baleful influence of
idle sentiment, and actually starving
the goose that lays the golden egg.
"To all my clients have sent this
definite, uncompromising and cheerful
message:
"'Keep the columns of the daily
newspapers bristling with your an
nouncements and thus open wide your
doors for the flood of prosperity that
is bound to rush in. Make hay while
the sun shines. We won't have anoth-
er chance like this in a hundred
years.
>'I have noticed with a feeling of
profound disgust the conservatism
and business cowardice that have set
in in America since the Kaiser threw
down the gauge of battle. We, the
very people who will logically profit
by the war abroad-and profit i'm
measurably-are acting as though we
were at war ourselves. We are talk
ing blue things, pinching pennies, cut
ting down our advertising and forcing
prosperity to stand back.
"As matter of fact this is the very
hour when we should rush into print
to a greater extent than ever before,
because, unless the earth opens and
swallows us up, there will be greater
prosperity in America this fall than
ever in the history of the Republic.
1--WE are not at war. We are not
likely to be. The warning world looks
to us for its supplies and we can't
keep prosperity down no matter how
hard we try.
eff my advice is worth anything to
you business men, it is here conveyed
to yeu in six words:
1ADNERTISE NOW, AND NEVER
LET UP"
