PARKER AT SANFORD Ipeaks to Several Hundred Peo ple at the Court House—Con fines Himself to Discussion of State Issues Mr. John J. Parker, Republican can- 1 lldata for governor, spoke In the court louse last Monday at 11 o'clock, his 1 ipeech consuming two hours In id de Ivery lacking five minutes. The court room was crowded and chairs had to be brought in to seat many of the people. Quite a number of women and some Democrats were present to hear the speech. Mr. Parker Is a good speaker and one of the cleverest and most adroit political debaters in the State. His speech was pitch ed^on a high plane. In fact barring some things he said it was a good Democratic speech and it was the opinion of some of those who heard him that it will do the cause of Democracy no harm. The campaign has been on the drag in this county and this speech has done much to arouse a renewed^ interest in politics in both camps. For Borne reason Mr. Parker igaored the discussion of national politics and devoted his entire time to Slate issues, in the discussion of which to empasizs his argument he quoted from Aycock and other great Democratic leaders, but never for one time mentioned the Dames of Republi can leaders in this connection. The crowd first heard a short speech *by Mr. waiter Bryd, cf Lllllngtoo, Republican candidate for the State Senate from this senatorial district. He was Introduced by Mr. E. L Gavin and at the conclusion of his talk, introduc ed Mr. Parker, the speaker of the day, and predicted that hk would be the next governor of North Carolina. Mr. Parker, in his opening remarks eulogised the ladies and expressed the opinion that they would be found do ing their duty In politics as well as in all other things. The speaker h»d much to say about the breaking up of the “solid South” And said that the time had passed when she had influence and a voice in the affairs of the nation. He stated that one of the great Issues of the cam paign was political freedom and that the independent Democrats Bhould support him as a means of breaking the. grip of the machine; that the polit ical history of this country shows that whenlyer a party holds power for a dong number of years U develops a machine which stifles progress and development find uses the government the purpose of the machine. “This is what happened in North [Carolina,” contended the speaker. “The reason that we have done so lit tle for agriculture, for roads, for schools anciipr labor is becaue the re actionary SlmmonB-Watts machine has Its grip upon the throat of the Dem ocratic party and of the State." “The only way,” said Mr. Parker, “to get rid of the machine is to defeat the Democratic paity at the polls. As soon as the machine loses the State offices it will go to pieces aDd the pro gresaive element of the Democratic party will have a chance to get con trol of that party and make It a power for good in the State. But you cannot beat the machine by fighting within the party. The reason Is that no man is strong enough by himself to overcome the machine. One of the great evils of the machine rule is that it deprives the State of the services of Its best men. The machine never for gives and never forgets. The man who fights it is. marked. Max Gard ner is a case in point. He supported Kltchln in 1912, In lha eyes of the maohine that was an unpardonable sin. He aspired to the governorship and, If the machine had left hands off he would have beaten Morrison by a big majority.” Mr. Parker devoted much time to a discussion of the revaluation act, which he claimed would increase the burden of the land-owner, while lowering tax on corporations and all other prop erty. He sought to prove by figures that the farmers would have to pay more taxes that ever before while the burden would be made lighter on the railroads, banks and other Interests. He favored raising all tax through the income tax law. He favored the Australian ballot system, and promised that If the people would make him governor he would “breath the breath of life Into the de funot cotton warehouse system." J.UB apouuor an.ucH.tu iQi> present school system of the State ami Bald that It was a reproach to the people of North Carolina that they didn’t have better educationl facilities. In making comparisons he olalmed that North Caroling now stands below the Sandwich Islands and Porto Rico, South Carolina, and all the other States In the union, save four in the matter of school facilities. Re contended that If North Carolina was wealthy enough , to pay into the federal treasury last fear $169,000,000, she was able to ed- , uoate the children of the State. Mr. Parker left the “gap down*' 1 in manv places and a well Informed Democrat, gifted of speech, could have itepped ta and in a joint discussion < nade it mighty interesting for him. 1 Se would have stated tha‘. during < ihe past eight years more constructive t eglelatlon was enacted by the Dem* ■ >orals at Washington than during 1 my previous eight years in the hie- fc ory of the country; that statesmen from r be “solid south" had muoh to do in c haping that legislation; that some u f the most influential men in both the & louse and Senate were from ma- t hine ridden North Carolina; that the S lan at> the head of the great navy a rhloh played a conspicuous part in t rlnnlng the World War, is aUo from tl hie State) that North Carolina under || DEMOCRATIC 0IXf democrats, Including "Hen Women, of Town «i4t‘ mnnlt; Organize for W< An enthusUstio Democratic neetlng wm bold in the City donjlay night for the purpose :anlzlug a Democratic club.

Pershing, a Republican, jja son-in-law of Senator Warren, an enemy of the administration, in command of the American Ex peditionary Forces, Admiral :Sims, a life-long Republican, in high command of the naval Operations in the danger zone, Howard E. Coffin, a Republican, in charge of aircraft production, E. R. Stettinius. Republican, in the War Department in charge bf supplies; Major General Goe thals, Republican, in charge of shipbuilding; Major General E. H. Crowder, Republican, in Charge of the draft. Wilson made a Republican, General Pey tpn C. March, chief of staff of the United States Army; turned edntrol of the Emergency Fleet Corporation over to Chas. M. Schwab and Charles Piez, Repub licans. H. P. Davison, Republi can, headed the Red 'Cross, Prank A. Vanderlip,Republican, was placed in change of the War Savings Stamp campaign; Harry A.

' Chatham’s Woman Sheriff MIsb Myrtle Siler, Chatham’s newl; made sheriff, Is a member of one of thi oldest families of the county, her an castors'hav Id g been prominent In pub Ho affai s, and always lending th weight of their influence to everythin that tended to the development am welfare of the county. Siler City where she was born and reared, wa named iQ honor of her grandfather. She was educated at the schools o her native village and the normal Col lege at Greensboro. For the past several years she ha been office deputy and has had entir Charge of the clerical work of th Sheriff’s office, and th^t she is a youni woman of the most excellent businee ability, judgment and tact is attestec by the fact that the retiring Sherlf goes out voluntarily, and the peopli determined that his services shall no be lost to the public, have nomlnatec him, and he will be elected member o the next General Assembly. Miss Slier has none of the character lstlos that one would expect to And It a lady sheriff. She has neither t masculine appearance nor a Westert air, bat Is modest and unassuming anc possesses all the grace and charm tha adbrn a trup Southern woman of cul ture and refinement. She Is not a suf fragette and was at all times opposec to woman suffrage. She did not seel the appointment, which was tenderer her by the'Board of Commissioners but now that the Federal Amendmen has been adopted she realizes the dut] that womanhood owes to society, ant when an opportunity was offered her o rendering service to the State, she fel Impelled to accept the responsibilities That her administration of the af fairs of the office will be entirely satis faotory, no one for a moment doubts and Chatham 1b proud of being the firs oounty In the State to honor Itself bj ©looting a woipan to a Constltutiona oounty office. Without regard tc party, her appointment meets with the hearty approval and endorsement o the entire county. While oounties and neighborhoods maj In some respects have out stripped hei flaring the past few years, Cbathaa challenges any of them to show a mort sfflOlent, more attractive or a hand tomer high Sheriff than her preseni Democratic lady official.
