Moreover, they are reported by the same gentleman to have said . that Butler has treated them with contempt for two months, that he has not even attended to his correspondence.

He is one of the most active Republicans in town, and having noticed that he was doing about considerably in the, past few 'days," The News watched its chance for an inter view. The result was rather surprising,' for Mr. McDonald has an' original tick etjof his own and is.vigorously at work organizing Mecklenburg in its behalf . His ticket is Marshall Mott for Gover nor, and Ambrose Hileman for Lieu tenant Governor. The . reporter ex pressed surprise that McDonald was not for Russell. No, sir," he , said "I am for Marshall Mott. He has done more work in Mecklenburg county - than any other itepubucan in : the State.?

" ' Hileman, the man whom Mr. Mc Donald wants for Lieutenant Governor, the Cabarrus meteor. . ilis real name is Ambrosia, and it gave his1 classical neighbors a good deal ; of trouble, for they are always confusing it with Am monia, . and similar sounding words. One ; day, Hileman . was in Concord. when-one Of the unique politicians of that town of uniquedom, in a burst of brotherly love and affection called him "Brose." The name has stuck, and he has since been known throughout the length nd breadth of Cabarrus as Brose, During the coming campaign his name will; be heard I from seaside hut to Mountain cabin, for Brose will be a . conspicuous figure in the cam paign. He is slated for Lieutenant Governor but should the - convention get into a'seiious wrangle over the nom-. mation for Governor, it is arranged that xJrose be the compromise and that bis name will,head the mongrel ticket for Governor. . That will be but a step in the ladder up which he is climbing to fame, and he has no idea of stopping there. When Brosef actually gets to be President of the United States, we won der if Cabarrus county will consider that phe has had glory enough. A Rowan County Farmer. .
