Ward, was insert ed in the papers or otherwise circu lated In the District by me is un true. "I knew nothing of the prepara tion of any such letter or nothing of its publication until my attention was called to it last Saturday even ening at Greenville, when I saw It In the Greenville Reflector. 1 had never heard of anythlng's being done toward the preparation of any such paper by Mr. Ward or any one else. "If I had desired to make any statement against Mr. Warren's rec ord 1 -would have signed my own I name to it. I am not conducting my I campaign in the dark. Mr. Ward is j able to take care of his own affairs. He did not confer with me nor did he give me any information as to I his intention to make some answer! to the attack upon him by the Inde-I pendent. "I say now, as I have said before, that I have made no attack upon, Mr. Warren and have counselled my friends not to do so. My purpose Is to win this race on my merits and and without seeking to injure my opponent. Mr. Warren's charges that I am responsible for Mr. Ward's attack upon him are unjust and un true. *1 am sorry for Mr. Warren If he feels that he Is being stabbed In the back, for I can<sympathize with him, as I have been'recelving stabs In the back at the hands of his friends and supporters, with his knowledge and seeming appoval, since the beginning of this campaign.' COX ANNOUNCES HIS PLATFORM (Candidate for Representative in Currituck County Telling His Folks His Program in Black and White. Moyock, June 5.?W. D. Cox, can didate for the Legislature from Cur rituck County, is making a house to house canvass for the nomination in the primary on Saturday and is basing his claims for the nomina tion on the following platform: First?No increase in taxation. If elected to the Legislature he pledges himself to oppose legislation increas ing taxes on real and personal prop erty. Second?No statewide game law. In addition to fighting against such a law Mr. Cox pledges himself to fight for preserving Currituck's game revenue for its roads. Third?-No further interference with the right of Currituck people to hunt and fish in the waters of Cur rituck Sound, to which many of them look for a livelihood. Fourth?Better roads and better schools without, however, spending more for these objects than the county's Income justifies. The four planks of the foregoing platform, according to Mr. Cox, re present In substance the sentiment of Currituck County as a whole as Ssees it after a canvass of the unty. He says that he has the packing of no political ring and If Elected will go to the Legislature as the representative of all the peo ple and not of wealth or of a parti cular self appointed group, clique or set. "During the seven years that I . hold office as County Superinten dent of Public Instruction," says Mr. Cox, "the records show that the pub lic schools made more progress than during all the previous of their his tory." Mr. Cox declares that when he retired from office his books were posted up to date and gave account for every cent spent, and that he has no apology to make to any one for his record. "The board of educa tion," he says, "adopted the school program for the county that was put Into effect and authorized Its being carrlod out."
