This good year of Grace,' Nineteen Huudred Thirty.! promises to be plentifully sea soned with political spice and ginger in the State of Stokes. The local political caldron is already at the seething stage in some quarters. Candidates who have heretofore been thought to be passive and en !ireiy in the hands ot their friends, now appear to be ac tive and even aggressive, and in some cases almost warlike, securing the country in the search of promises of support from friends. Much gas is be ing burned, many babies are being kissed, while the old-time art of handshaking is revived, with a vim. The weather and the time are becoming propi tious. The religious gather ings are the greatest places for the assembling of the office hunters. Here in the open air. where good fellowship, good: cheer, uood food and good friends gather on Saturdays or Sundays, you are indeed out of luck if you do not iind quite a galaxy of amititious fellows looking for votes. The primary is no v. getting ■»ear at han'J.

I)t:t it »- t;- torn to s.tunu out sent it .et a; thes,.- meetings and try t - certain the strongest cand:- fiaies for recommendation to the county convention, or to induce certain available timber to enter the primary. At Sat urday's meeting it was the -er.se of the Democrats present that Sheriff John Taylor had no opposition nor should have any in the county convention or primary, as he is 100 per cent, the choice of the party. It was the further opinion of the committee that Elder J. Watt Tuttle of Meadows was quali fied to be Clerk of the Court of Stakes County, a-.d Ihi.t he i head and shoulder-; ; hove any body else in strength. There lore it was deemtd that Mr. Tuttle owes it to his party, to his friends and to himself to enter (he primary for this im portant office... It was found that two candidates were be- fore the people for the office of member of the Lower House of Representatives, to-wit, H. H. Leake and Gilmer Sparger, ! both very capable and honorable men. either of whom would fill this position with credit and j honor. I'innix Bailey was present, and his name being mentioned for Register of Deeds, the committee endorsed him. Candidates for county commissioners were offered and endorsed as follows: Ellis Stone of Pinnacle. Elder F. I*. Stone of Asbury and Rev. J. A. Joyce of Sandy Ridge. For Highway Commissioners the following gentlemen were rec-! ommended: E. \Y. Carroll and I J. C. Craig. For Coroner. Dr. Stone of King, and for Survey-| or. I. G. Ross, of Walnut Cove.! The Republicans of Stoke.* j county are likewise quite ac tive in discussing and marsh alling candidates. For Sheriff. Dixie Nunn. Monroe Fagg, Jesse I'riddy. E. R. Nelson, seem to be the timber f'rVtm which a candidate will be ! selected. Each and all of gentlemen have their support i and supporters. It is expected that in the primary, the strug gle between the friends of these men will be spirited. There is always a possibility of dark horses entering the race at the last hour. While we knew of nothing definite, it has fer >enu* time been whisperc.! that at the las? moment some uepuhlican thought to be stronger than cither of the abmo cam!'dates will be enter ed and will win the nomination. For the Legislature. C. C. McGee sometime since an nounced that he was not .! i-.ndidate. however, it is known that Mr. McGee's friends are bringing pressure to bear on him to again make the race for the office at which he was suc ci'sslu! two years ago. It is also learned that M. (>. Jone> ;s strongly considering legis lative honors at the earnest persuasion of many friends, •tnc! while he has not yet spoken definitely, many people believe h>> will enter at the last mom | enf. and if so McGee may not enter, or vice versa, Jones may r.ot enter if McGee does. These are two of the youngest and • brithfest Ivepohlicar,; of the Mint. v. and each has man; friends. One of the sharpest contests ; s mor.g the Republicans is thai between Fagg and Chilton for Clerk of the Court. Hoth of these gentlemen are well versed ' # in the exigencies and the intricacies of politics, especially pertaining to the office of Clerk, and each is not i without experience in that im | portant branch of our county | civil government. Both are 1 able men. and each has a strong | following, and the tilt between j them is sure to be full of pep and shock. The Bailey-Simmons bout will be very interesting. While ! he contest in Stokes is only jt! e backwash from the great j wave which will engulf the j State on November 7fh, even | locally it will have its fireworks and its impacts and all that : sort of thing.

The disclosures being twisted I I out of Bishop Cannon by the; congressional lobby committee in regard to the anti-Smith money which he handled in Virginia two years ago. ap proving quite interesting, but are not so interesting here as some North Carolina dope; would be along the same lines. The figures showing how much boodle was used by McNinch. Simmons' lieutenant, to carry North Carolina for Hoover in the last election, would be read with greater zest by North Carolinians. It appears that the Wash ington committee has the uood Bishop well by his whiskers now. The milk has already been squeezed out of him that I one man alone sent him 000, and that this contributor was a New York man. (Angels j ! and ministers of grace defend | us—from Tammany?) Now. if only one man sent the Bishop I $65,000, wouldn't it be edifying ; to learn what additional sums (he Bishop received, and from whom, and after he had spent enouuh of this money to carry Virginia for Hoover, how much he used to recruit his own private f.r!uncs on ;he Tam many stock market, where ?! has been proved by his own admission that he lost a large amount of somebody's cash in his gambling operations. Of course we North Carolinians are not half so much interest ed. however, in this Virginia mess as we would he in a few disclosures from .McNinch. Simmons' lieutenant, as to how much lucre he had left after carry in;; North Carolina Repub lican under the advices from his chief, the Senator. Sim mons himself, who is Mc- Ninch's l.oss, could doubtless tell us all about it. but as the Senator's will is bigger than the Democratic party, by the same token we assume he is superior to the law. ;'.nd thus the corrupt practices act be comes null and void when it conflicts with the wishes of "this our Caesar." The Washing!;)]! lobby com mittee is not the only organiza tion after Bishop Cannon. His church, through its general conference at Dallas, is also calling on him to appear an:i answer to the charges of politi cal activity unbecoming a bish op of the .Methodist Church South. Before it is all over, this pious gambler, this eccles iastical crap-shooter, this sanc timonious Virginia political boodle-guzzler, will doubtless be severely unfrocked, but we hope not until through him as the nucleus we shall ex pose some of the corrupt and unlawful political methods which were used in Virginia and North Carolina in the last election to defeat and humiliate the Democrats and elect Hoov i er. ; Senator Simmons was the head and front of 'the gre.vt Organization of Conscience and Disaffection against the party which made him, and whose bread he had eaten for more than 40 years. It appears that this Organization had unlimit ed supplies of money from SOMEWHERE but echo answers WHERE ? Cannon says that $65,300 of it was sent from Tammany, or at least from a man who lives in Tam many. Not more than SIO,OOO was ever sent by the national Democratic committee to carry North Carolina for the Demo cratic ticket. Such an insigni- j licant sum when it was pitted against the unmeasured slush fund commanded by the Can nons and McNinches. who worked under orders from their chief Simmons, didn't weigh very heavily. When the lobby committee gets through with Cannon, let it send for McNinch and make him disgorge the information which the people have a right to know. Let the Corrupt Practices act be resurrected.
