If all the Zoo women vote, and
as many men vote 1860 as did

1000 votes will be cast. There
are six boxes in which TO vote,
and long tickets; therefore it is
hardly likely that the vote from
all the precincts win be available

Declaring that had he been
nominated in the primary, he
would have expected the whole
hearted support of every Morri-
son man, Hon. o. Max Gardner
in a ringing speech at the Fair
Grounds at Rockingham We'd
nesday urged the men and
women of Richmond county who
may have voted for him in the
primary to cast their vote and
influence for the election of Cam
Morrison.
And the climax of his power
full address came when he de-
declared that the Republican
party is directly responsible for
the low price of cotton today,
for by their blocking the peace
treaty with Germany, the mark
cts of Germany have been shut
to the cotton trade, and the in
evitable decline resulted. =
Mr.. Gardner was billed to
speak at the Fair Grounds
"Wednesday morning, but missed
a connection at Raleigh and so
did not reach the city until the
noon train. The hour for the
address was therefore changed
| till 3 o'clock. On account of the
rain, the plans had to be again
changed and the speaking held
in the Agricultural Building in
stead of from the northern END
where seats had been arranged.
The rain on the tin roof inter-
rupted somewhat, but despite
this, and the fact that the people
had to stand, did not dampen
the enthusiasm or the keen in
terest of the 750 people who
were packed within the building.
The speaker was introduced by
County Chairman Fred w. By
mum. Mr.. Gardner lost no time
in preliminaries. He is popular
in Richmond county where in
the primary July 3rd he 'receiv-
ed 765 votes. And so he came
back to the county and most de-
cidedly was among friends. He
is a true sportsman, taking his
defeat in the primary like a man
and is now stumping the State
in the interest of the man who
defeated him-Cam Morrison.
Mr.. Gardner began his speech
of one hour by asserting that
the. one big thought of the ma
tion is centered in politics, and
so he would make no apology for

TAYLOR TEAM WINS
 BASKETBALL GAME

The basketball team explained by Ike P. Taylor defeated the Blakey aggregation in fast game at Union hall last night, the game being one |of the best of the winter, notwith- standing the fact that only hand full of spectators were present to witness the contest. The attend ance was a disappointment to the players and poor reward for the effort that has been made to provide the town with such wholesome am- usement. The score last night was 55 to 35.
 The teams lined up much the same as they did in the previous game. Walter Scott could not play and his place was filled by Saun- ders, new man in the game.
 The teams will meet again next Tuesday evening, and probably all future games will be played on Tuesday nights until the end of the season.

JACK HEATH IS
 NOT SURE RYDER
 WILL bE WINNER

According to advices received at Fairbanks from Jack Heath, former well-known resident of the upper town, who stampeded to the Port land Canal district several months ago. Hyder is not going ahead as fast as he anticipated, and the tone of his letter is not at all enthusi- astic.
 The cost of living at Hyder would appear to be higher than elsewhere in Alaska, especially in view of the fact that the town is on tidewater and close to the centers of popula- ton. Wood, Heath writes, sells at Hyder at S21.5O per cord, coal is held at $29 a ton, and the lumber men want $50 a thousand for lum- ber-and poor lumber, at that.
 Longshoremen are getting $2 an hour
 There is considerable activity in the hills back of Hyder, with new development work starting frequent ly. Work at the famous Premier mine, however, was stopped recently by strike, and up to short time ago the mine management had been unable to get men to take the places of the strikers, although number of miners were imported from Prince Rupert When they arrived on the scene and learned the circumstances under which the original crew had quit, the new arrivals joined the strikers and refused to go to work. Steve Lovejoy, for many years in the employ of E. R. Peoples at Fairbanks, was in Seattle recently getting a stock together for gen. eral store which he planned to open at Hyder.
