Congressional Candidate Robert R.

congressional district, where he has
been on a campaign against Congress-
man James M. Gudger, Jr., and other
congressional candidates, has just re-
turned to the city from his horse
back tour. In his capacity as captain
of Troop B, thirsting for war and the
blood of sundry greasers, MI. Rey-
holds also speaks confidently of his
chances in the district. He maintains
that he is not leading by mere half.

MAKES RHEUMATISM
PROMPTLY DISAPPEAR
Chronic, CrippIed-up Sufferers
Find Relief After Few Doses
of New Remedy are
Taken

It is needless to suffer any longer
with rheumatism, and be all crippled
TIP, and bent out of shape with its
heart-wrenching pains, when you can
surely avoid it.
rheumatism comes from weak. in-
active kidneys, that fail to filter from
Tie blood, the poisonous waste mat
ter and uric acid; and it is useless to
rub on liniments or take ordinary
remedies to relieve the pain. This
only prolongs the misery and can't
possibly cure you.
The Only way to cure rheumatism
IS TO remove the cause. The new dis
covery, Croxone, does this because it
neutralizes and disso1ves all the poi
sonous substances and uric acid that
lodge ii the joints and muscles, to
scratch and i~rritate and cause rheu-
n1atisul, and cleans out ard strength
cts the stopped-up, inactive kidneys,
50 they can filter all the poisons from
tie blood and drive it on and out of
tie system.
Croxone is the most wonderful
medicine ever made for curing chron-
&c rheumatism, kidney troubles, and
Bladder disorders. You will find it
different from ali other remedies.
There is nothing else on earth like it.
It matters not how old you are, Or
how long you have suffered, it is
practically impossible t. take it into
the human system without results.
>You will find relief from the first few
doses, and you will be surprised how
quickly all your misery and suffering.
will end.
An original package of Croxone
costs but a trife at any f~rst-class
drug store. All druggists are au-
thorized to sell it on a positive money
back guarantee. Three doses a day
for a few days is often all that is
ever needed to cure the worst back
ache OF overcome urinary disorders.

BOb's the Man.
Shelby HighIander.)

Robert r. Reynolds comes next
week into Highlander territory and
will deliver a number of speeches in
the good old county of Rutherford.
Bob" should be greeted by big
crowds. He has a message to deliver
that is worth hearing, and he is good
to look upon. He is asking for the
democratic nomination to succeed
Gudger and the indications are that
he is going to get it. He is young
comparatively so-and in the prime of
vigorous, sturdy and inspiring
young manhood. He is a progressive
with a small "p"-none of your old
fogeyisms about him. He has made
good as a solicitor and his legion OF
friends think he is even better fitted
for the role Of a national legislator.
He has enthusiasm, energy, persis-
tence; legal, literary and forensic
ability. He is in tune with the mod
ern spirit of human betterment. He
is a democrat-with a small I'd" SIS
well as a large Cd"
Bob believes in the folks he
plain people, of which he is one-and
ne is out on horseback, meeting and
talking with the Sons Of the Soil.
The sticks of candy and gum-for the
children-are no so much advertise
rents as they are expressions of the
mans generous geniality and goo3
cheer and wherever he goes the
take to the woods.
Thousands of people will vote for
"Bob"-not so much that they love
Gudger less, but that they love Bob"
more. And I would not be among the
boosters of Bob" if I did not know
that he is the IA he is-sound to the
core.

Congressional Race as Told by
Interviews and Paper Clippings

No political situation in Western
North Carolina is more interesting to
10th republicans and democrats, alsQ
the buIlmoosers, than the race for the
congressional nomination, with three
active candidates and two receptive
ones in the running.
Congressman Gudger is spending a
little time in the district and Solicitor
Robert r. Reynolds is putting in full
time, horsebacking the rural districts.
Mr.. Harrison is looking after his in
forests while discharging his duties as
travelling salesman in various Wes-
tern counties.
Solicitor Reynolds was in the city
Thursday en- route to Polk and Ruth
e-ford counties. He will canvass
Henderson county about the first Or
second week in May. He expressed
himself as highly pleased with the
prospects for his nomination on the
first ballot in the convention.
The following clippings with refer
ence to the candidates and their ac-
t;vities are given for the information
of Democrat readers throughout the
district:

The Western Carolina Enterprise
published at WaynesYille last weax
came out good and strong for J. Nj.
Gudger, Jr., for Congress in the tenth
Gsstrict giving in detail it's various
reasons for supporting Mr.. Gudger
and carrying his cause straight to the
doors of the people of Haywood coun-
~ and elsewhere where the paper is
read. 1t claims that Mr.. Gudger
should be returned to Congress
and that the people, in casting
their votes for him. would only be
acting upon the great law of "self
preservation" We read with interest
what the Enterprise had to say on the
claims of MI. Gudger to succeed him
self as Congressman from the tenth
but when we took up the Waynesville
Courier we. read. first. this pointed
little editorial:
The people of Alabama chose the
man who stayed on the job to the one
who deserted his Office duties to
campaign, and we believe that the
people of the 10th Congressional dis
trict Of North Carolina have just as
much good sense as those OF Alabama.
Having read this we said "The Cou-
rier's for Gudger." But We read on
a little further in the interesting col
Il
Umns of that journal and we came
uron an editorial printed In double
column under the head. "Mr. Gud-
gers change of Heart" in which Mr.
Gudger is quoted as advocating, il
his announcement for denomination fol
Congress, the, placing of party har.
nlony above party Office" Afte2
quoting what Mr.. Gudger said in hi:
announcement the Courier goes OF
and concludes the article in the fol-
lowing paragraphs:
Looking back over the years we re
member that sometimes he did no
depend entirely on his record for sup
port. We remember when he was re
sponsible for one Of the most viciou'
stories ever circulated about a NAL
in a political race in this district, an
at the same time we remember tina
!, the racial characteristics Of anothe
were used a sa means of creating pre-
JUDGE. Still further we have il
mind the ghoulish act OF one of M
Gudger's closest supporters in pas
campaigns who only a few week.
ago was responsible for a lie abou
enc of the present candidates which
not only affects the living but goe
down into the grave to dig up a vic
TIM of it's slime.
Indeed are we glad that Mr.. Gudge
has changed. We hope he means
what he says, and that he will maxi
this plain to his supporters. He has
been responsible for more of the vici
Gus sort of political campaigning i
this district than any other man ant
he is to be commended for deciding t.
be clean for once.
After reading this article we were
compelled to, admit that we did no.
know how the Courier stood. Any
way the Courier leaves itself uncom-
ritted.

UNFAIR TO THE DRUGGIST
The Old Joke About something Just
as Good" Doesn't Apply to This

The Old Joke About Something Just
as GOOd.' Doesn't Apply to This
Drug Store.
You have probably heard dozens of
times the old story that a drug store
was a place to get something just as
good" There is at least one drug
glst in the world that you can't say
this about.
1t is certain that an inferior article
will never be substituted for a guar
anteed one by Justus Pharmacy drug
store. Take for instance a safe. reil-
able remedy for constipation and liver
trouble like Dodson's Liver Tone. THIS
harmless vegetable liquid has proved
SO satisfactory a liver stimulant and
relieVer of bil~iousness, and to entirely
take the place of calomel without any
danger or restriction of habits or diet,
that there are dozens of preparations
springing up with limitations of it's
claims. I
But Dodson's Liver Tone is guaranF
teeG to do all that is claimed for IT,.
and if you are not satisfied with it,
Justus Pharmacy will hand YOU
money back with a smile. Any per-
son going to this store fora bottle OF
Dodson's Liver Tone will be sure Of
getting a large bottle of this gen
uine remedy in exchange for his half
do1lar.-Ady. 1927

BIG HAIL STORM
IN COUNTRY NORTH

Reports were sent in Tuesday
morning of a severe hail storm in
northeastern Billings and southern
Dunn counties. which occurred the
evening of the 18th.
. H. G. Hamilton, living six miles
south of Fayette, states that the
storm struck his place at $50 o'clock
in the evening and totally destroyed
his grain crop of SO acres. He car
ried insurance of $40 per acre. AS
near as he could tell the storm start
ed in the Mary country some Is
miles northwest and was 5 miles wide
in places. The hail was 2 and 8
inches deep at his place. He thought
it ran out in the Sadowsky neighbor-
hood. The crop on the R. J. Mahl-
mann farm was also destroyed.
Tom Rice, west of Manning, lost
his crop in the Tuesday storm. The
hail strip appeared to be three miles
wide in this locality.
John Schuch from 5 miles south
west of Hirschville, was in Dickinson
Wednesday to report his so per cent
loss to the John Orchard agency. He
had 70 acres of wheat and 60 acres
of oats. He did not think the
storm strip very wide. But little
rain fell and the hail stones were
good sized. Charles Bfademeyer and
Hans Burnson, further east, also sus-
tanned losses from the storm.
It rained hard on Sunday in places
but as far as known the Tuesday
hail storm is the only bad one in this
part Of the state.

Hartung, Richards and Bailey, was
appointed some time ago to look up

apparatus. This committee reported
the need Of such apparatus and rec
commended that a pulmotor, life bouys
and a set of graphing hooks be pur-
chased. The council voted that the
purchasing committee be instructed
to purchase the apparatus.
The mayor was empowered to get
is one hundred candle power lights
for South Dickinson and such othe,
parts of the city as ire in need OF
more lights.
The council took a recess subjec:
to the call of tie mayor as a large

held after the ~Chautauqua session.

FOURTH OF JULY

This year the 4th Of July was
rather quiet in Dickinson. There was
a fine ball game in The afternoon and
the usual display Of fireworks at
night. Co. K gave their annual dance
at the armory in the evening and had
a fair sized crowd.
For the people going away from
home, Belfeld seemed to be the cen-
ter Of attraction. It was estimated
that fully Is to 80 autos went to the
western metropolis on this day and
they all reported a good time. It
was a warm day and a number Of the
autos had mishaps, several not being
able to make the return trip the same
day.
! The Belfeld people know how to
give the good old fashioned Fourth
Of July celebration. They had the
Medora band dispensing music and it
was good. There were the usual foot
races. In the afternoon there were
horse races and various contests and
a ball game between the locals and
Beach.
It was a pleasure to many old tim
ers of Dickinson to meet old timers
Of Belield and the country tributary.
