r ANTI-RING CONVENTION. Democrats who Oppose the Pres ent Administration, In Conven tion at Halifax, Nominate a full Legislative and County Ticket To be Voted for In the Demo cratic Primary August 19th. The Ami-Ring Democrats, op posed to what they call the ring, meaning the present administration in Halifax county, met in conven tion at Halifax Friday. Major T. L. Emry, chairman, called the convention to order at I p. m. He said, "Gentlemen of the Convention: We have met here as ami-ring Democrats. Dem ocrats to beat this ring, the most corrupt ring in North Carolina. 1 can't for the life of me see how ihty could come here and spend $50,000 when they were only au thorized to spend $30 000. 1 tell you we have the ring badly beaten. If we had gotten our count we would have beaten them badly two years ago. They stole 100 votes at one precinct, and ihey stole enougli at others to get a majority. We are here today to name a ticket, a Dem ocratic ticket."! W. F. Butterworth, of Scotland Neck, said "the question is shall we go into the primary. At first 1 was opposed to going in, but since (he ring has let down the b.irs and as true Democrats the best thing for us to do is logo into the primary." J. H. Pope said he preferred not to go into the primary. Henry Whitaker, of Enfield, was willing to go in it "the ring" would give them equal representation in the pollholders at the precincts. Leggett, of Hobgood, was satisfied with one pollholder and spoke in favor of going into the primary. W. W. Rossersaid "before they let down the bars I was opposed to going into primary, but now 1 say lei us fight this out in the pri mary. J. W. Pittman thought that the only way was 10 go into the pri mary. Major Emry, "I do not see how we could get any votes unless we go into the primary." The convention by unanimous vote decided to go into the prima ry and abide the results. B. D. Mann.of Enfield, "I would like to say this, the old ring men are whipped now. You have only to stand up for your rights." A. S. Dunn made a characteristic speech in favor of naming the can didates on the floor. We do not want any ticket made up by any committee, we want to name a winning ticket and we intend to see to it that we get ihe votes counted as cast for our candidates. Nominations being in order the following ticket was named: For the Senate W. F. Butter- worth, of Scotland Neck, by accla mation. For the House W. W. Rosser, of Brinkleyville, and L. W. Leg gett, of Hobgood, by acclamation. For Sheriff-N. W. Warren, of Faucetts, by acclamation. For Treasurer The names of T. F. Whitley, G. S. White and E. W. Hyman, all of Scotland Neck, were placed in nomination. The vote: Whitley 75, Hyman 26; White 20. Total vote cast 121. Whitley was declared nom inated. There were at least 300 people in the court room, yet the ballot showed only 121 voting, which indicated that only that number present were in sympathy with the anti-ring ticket. For Register of Deeds, the names of J. Waldo Whitaker, and O. P. Stallings, both of Enfield, were presented. The vote was Whita ker 52, Stallings 38. Whitaker was the nominee. For County Commissioners va rious names were presented, final ly on motion of B. D. Mann the following were nominated for coun ty commissioners by acclamation: J. E. Cox, of Roanoke Rapids; W. A. Pierce, of Weldon ; W. T. Eure. of Halifax; M. V. Barnhill, of Enfield; T. L House, of Scot land Neck. For Coroner I. J. Robertson. of Enfield, and W. E. Whitmore, of Scotland Neck, were placed in nomination. The result was Whit more 77, Robertson, 44 The office of clerk of the court was left for the last call. There appeared to be no candidate. E. W. Hyman was nominated. He declined. J. E. Hancock then said he would place in nomination Charlie Spted, of Scotland Neck. Some one wanted to know if Scotland Neck was not getting more than hershare. "No, that's all right," said a voice in the audience. "The ring gives Scotland Neck all she asks for and we might as well do the same if we want to." Speed was nominated by accla mation. On motion of A. S. Dunn, the convention declared in favor of putting the officers on salary if their ticket was successful in the primary. Chairman Emry then stated ihat on account of his health he would have to leave for the mountains but that the campaign would be man aged by Mr. Mann and Mr. Whitley. There being no other business the meeting adjourned.

It is under the personal direction of Mr. and Mrs. Adams and appeals to the best peo ple in town. The show has a splendid orchestra and the music is much enjoyed. The show is fully up to the high standard it erected here last season and the opening performance was to a crowded tent. "The Revards" in their trapeze work are wonderful. "The Brations" at once became favorites in their specialty song and dance acts. Misses Beulah and Ethel Adams, a sister and neice of the manager, delighted all at once by their charming personal ity and theirevery appearance was greeted with applause. "Happy" Jack Owens, black faced comedian, holds his own with the best of the burnt cork artists. Thursday night "Buffalo Bill"will be presented and on Friday night will be presented a splendid one act reproduction of "Ten Nights In a Barroom."

Line's right of way be tween Second and Third Street has been cut down. This tree was a landmark, and had afforded shel ter for various people since the days when Weldon was only Weldon's Orchard, the tree standing in the back yard of what was then the principal dwelling in town. We regret to see this magnificent tree go, but it stood in the way of the embankment for the new rouie through town. "Old and in the way," such is life, it applies to men as well as to trees, and it is sad to realize that some day we, too, will be old and in the way. When shown positive and reliable proof that a certain remedy had cured numerous cases of kniale ills, wouldn't any sensible woman conclude that the same remedy would also benefit her if suffering with the same trouble?

We will pay a handsome reward to any person who will prove to us that these letters are not genuine and truthful or that cither of these women were paid in any way for their testimonials, or that the letters are published without their permission, or that the original letter from each did not come to us entirely unsolicited. What more proof can any one ask ? For 30 years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been the standard remedy for female Ills.

Powell, Sr., walked into a near beer saloon in Durham Friday, wrote the name of W. H. Josey, Scotland Neck, on a card bearing his own name and turning to Lu cius Bowling, a barber, said: "I have only three minutes to live," and fired a bullet into his body. He fell to the Moor and for scvcr-l minutes showed only the faintest sign of life. His ruddy face, changed into a deathly pale, Ins pretty eyes glared and glared, and no sign of pulse beat marked his ahnosi lifeless body. In ten min utes he began to revive and to your correspondent made out the names of Miss Alice Powell and Mrs. W. T. Eure, his sisters. He was rushed immediately to the Wait's hospital. Though three shots were fired from a 38 pistol, only one seems io have taken ef fect in ihe body. li will be remembered that it was on account of Aquilla Powell that the awful Scotland Neck trag edy occurred. It is believed that young Powell attempted suicide on account of brooding over a mis spent life. He had been heard to lament ihat he had caused his fath er's downfall, his sisters trouble, and his banishment from his home.
