Catalina And Agath-
eridan Socities Debate,
On Tuesday night after Easter
tie Catalina and Agatheridan
Literary (Societies of the Graded
School had a public debate on
the following query: Resolved,
' 'That Immigration to the South
Should be Encouraged.
The following were the debat
ers: Affirmative, Catalina: Miss
es Huldah Featherstone, Lorena
Mills and Vivian Allgood. Ne
gative, Agatheridan: Byrd Sat
terfield, Landon Bradsher and
Gilmer Masten.. The negative
was successful. - The Judges
were Rev. 0. W. Dowd, C. C.
Cuningham and H. L. Crowell.
Sunday at Bethel Hill.
It is always a rare pleasure for
us to spend the day with the
good people of the Bethel Hill
section, and last Sunday , was no
exception It as our good
pleasure to worship with these
good people and toliear . Dr. W.
L. Poteat deliver two lectures
which were unusually good. Dr.
Poteat is a speaker M renown
and of course the knowledge of
his being present drew : many
from all directions. Rarely have
we seen so good representation
from the town-at any country
gathering, and not one but what
expressed thelreatest delightat
being present. : But' Bethel Hill
has the knack of getting the
best, whenever she undertakes
anything. An, interesting ac
count of the day . wilL be found
! elsewhere from one fx our : best
correspondents;
republidan5
iuanon outier, wiiose every auv
toward North Carolina is .slimy
with treachery", he said.. Secre
tary Daniels spoke in strong de
fense of the national administra
tion. The platform is neither start
ling nor stupid as a document. It
gives whole-hearted endorsement
to President Wilson, prepared
ness plans and all; congratulates
the people on their emancipation
from the money mastery; pledges
the best for rural credits and fur
ther efforts in behalf of the farmr
ers and agriculture; commends the
State Board of Health; takes pride
in the ever lengthening school
term; glorifies the good roads,
movement; praises Governor.
Craig for his good' roads energies!
and challenges the Republicans to
match the modern industrial mirai
cle wrought by the Democracy.
Governor Craig's speech was a
passionate assault upon Roosevelt,v
the incarnation of war.
Governor Craig declared that It
is apparent now chat Roosevelt js
to be the Republican nominee.
"That will settle the question?',
he said. "I want the issues
squarely put to the people to say
whether they want Wilson and
peace or Roosevelt and war. And
I want it settled by them, not by
him. Every man who loves peace
Lshould go down upon his knees
and thank - God for Woodrow
Wilson."
These- speeches aroused the
greatest , enthusiasm. The sup
posed lethargy of the Democrats
was not observable. They do not
appear to have been more aroused
in years. 1
Cam Morrison called Marion
Butler the old, old names yester
day nt 2:45 and the Democratic

hours ot steady silence, jumped
