Barbour, of Benson. Mr. O. A. Harbour, DMMMMtto I nominee for the State Senate from the 15th Senatorial District. wa> born In Johnston County In 1883. Reared on a farm, the pure air and invigorating sunlight Inculcated into the restless spirit of his youthful soul an early love of freedom and developed n strength of will and the power to endure. Thus early In life he was taught by a sturdy i entage to overcome opposition and to conquer difficulties. Ills early life was spent In working on a farm In close touch with nature. At the age of seventeen he began attend ing a preparatory school and later entered the Stale University, where he graduated in Law in the class of 1904. Locating at Benson, hi home town, he began the practice of law, and by his studentlike devotion to his chosen profession, he soon built up a splendid practice. By his sturdy character, by loyalty to truth and honesty, and by the uprightness of his private life he has won the esteem and support of his fellow countrymen. As a partial recogni tion of his fitting ability and clean life he was elected Mayor of Ben son in July, 1909. As a boy Mr. Barbour was ever ready to point out to his play-mates ! convincing reasons why he was a Democrat. As a young man he al ways felt that he had failed In his duty did he not show to other men the dangers of Republicanism. As a citizen his loyalty to Democracy and his party devotion have never been questioned. Ever ready to go where Ills services were required, or where his party's Interests called him. his nomination by the Democrats for the j Stati Senate is tut a fitting re cognition of his devotion to duty. No stronger man could have been nomi nated to represent Johnston, Samp son and Harnett Counties In the State Senatt Strong and clean "In i public life and in private thinking," he will conduct a campaign worthy | of one of Johnston County's most | scholarly sons. He does not abuse those who differ with him politically, j He reasons with them. A student j himself, he believes that other men should be appealed to only through the powers of reason, and not by corrupt methods in politics. Mr. Barbour has as his running mate Mr. J. R. Baggett of Harnett County, who Is also a strong man. Li<| every true Democrat rally to the support of these two men and this district will be ably represented in the next State Senate.
