Page Two The Danbury Reporter N. E. PEPPER, Editor and Publisher lasued Wednesdays at Danbury, N. C., and entered at thfe Danbury postoffiaa as second class matter, under act of Congress. Danbury, N. C., Thursday. June 23, 1938 AN EDITORIAL EXPECTING A SQUARE DEAL — . *, » The militant Democracy of Stokes county— FJVE THOUSAND VOTES STRONG—expects a square deal at the hands of the sister counties of the 21st judicial district, July 2. The Democracy of Stokes county has always been loyal to the district, the State and President Roosevelt, and has stood aside when the distribu tion of political honors came. Surry has been the home of many and dis tinguished and worthy officials bestowed by the combined generosities of the district, the State and the Federal government. Today Surry can boaslt of her honored and distinguished to-be- Congressman A. D. Folger. Rockingham has been repeatedly favored with gifts at the hands of the people, in which Stokes has often contributed with pleasure. To day Rockingham can point with pride to its Allen Gwyn, soon to sit on the Superior Court bench for a term of six years. Caswell is proud of its Highway Commissioner appointed by Gov. Hoey. In days past Caswell has been the home of many men prominent in , North Carolina history. What has Stokes had? NOT A THING. 1 In the June 4 primary Ralph J. Scott, candi date of Stokes for Solicitor, led his next highest opponent, A. D. Ivie, Jr., of Rockingham county, by more than 1400 votes. \ et Ivie of Rockingham—knowing his county already has the judgeship—wants the solicitor- ship, too, that both the judge and solicitor may live in Rockingham county. ' And Ivie—at the expense of thousands of dollars to the tax payers of the district, calls a SECOND PRIMARY to beat Scott and secure another honor for Rockingham county. Is it fair and just and right for the other counties of the 21st district to get ALL, and Stokes NOTHING? * The Stokes County Democratic party is ex pecting a square deal, and will not FORGIVE or FORGET any combination of district votes that defeats Ralph J. SCOTT. The Sad Fate Of Two Crows j Joe Hart, of the County-State highway department, relates an in- j tercsting incident which he saw I ' with his own eyes near King the: other day. I Two crows were fighting des perately in the air, and stopping j to rest they alighted on a "pair of high tension wires that ran con-j currently along the power line.! Immediately one of them reached, over to seize the bill of the other, j thus establishing a circuit. There | was a snap, like that m-ade by electric sparks, and rising into the itir, a puff of smoke. A few! black feathers floated to the! ground. The crows hid disap peared. i It wus really an incident that must attract science, and this' newspaper can vouch for the' veracity of Mr. The onlv people ia this section that d> no: believe are Lor Sisk aad Dr. Morefield.
