The Hon. W. C. Dowd, Ex-Speaker of the House
of Representatives and Editor of The Charlotte
News, Powerfully Presents Candidacy of Hon.
. Cameron Morrison for Governor.
Th* early history of Csmcrnn
Morrison is ono of struggle with
difficulties that wfcrs hard to over,
corns. Be was born in Richmond
coanty in 1969, and his youth was
•pent dating a period in which an
education was not easily obtained by
any save these of wealth. The free
schools of the country community In
which bis patents lived were open
for oaly a month or two during each
year, and the beet Cam coaid do wan
to attend oac of these schools in a
log school house for a brief period
each year. Uis father was a car
penter, and a nun of groat indus

low and werh not easily obtained.
At aboat sight yuan of age, after
the death of Us maths;, he wa*
KcSkBiTaW^ldTKtchman;
who ran a little school at Ellerbe
Springs- fa Richmond county. Board
was obtained for him at a neerhy
home, where ha helped about the
bouse and oa the farm during the
hours when he was not in school. At
the end of {ho first year McCaskiU
moved his school to the old Terry
school house near Robcrdd factory
in Richmond county. Board was
secured for young Morrison with a
farmer named C. P. Dawkins, who
lived about two adles distant from
the school. Cam worked on the
Dawldas farm at odd times After
a year at this school it became nec
essary for him to go to work. Bis
father was struggling to rapport
three other small children in addi
tion to Cam. Work was obtained in
Wolf Pit township, in a country
cowl wary and on a farm. This
continued for a year or two, the bo.
earning his support.

Young Morrison eras licensed to

immediately opened an office In
Rockingham. His knowledge of the
law. combined with unusual abilities

him Sigh rank at the bar. These
qualities wen* supplemented by ht

Wor.-Uon’s natural love for (be
public service manifested itself early.
In the spiing of 1692, la the demo

The whole county knew the struggle

He commenced his speech by a qso

the fact that hi* father had quit the
ropubilcBD party and jo.scd him.
From that day the elder Morrison
become n poorer ia th* light fur
democracy and whit* supremacy. In
ihls campaign young Morrison's
-peaches were powerful in their de
nunciation of republican misrule,
yet so convincing and appealing that
hundreds of rwpohlican* Joined the
democratic party and put on white
supremacy button*. At ooc speaking
nt Ellarb* Spring* on* hondred and
thirty-five republicans Joined the
democratic party. On Saturday bo
fore th* aloction there was in Rock
ingham probably tho moat spectacu
lar Rad Shirt parade that ever took
place ia th* state. Tho parade
headed be the elder Morrison and
another Confederate soldier bearing
a banner with th* inscription, "The
White* Will Bala th* Land or Die."
The republican* realised that they
wht In a death grapple, and every
known mesas of innaidatioo eras
employed. Governor Russell had li
med a proclamation denouncing the
Red Shirts of Richmond and Halifax
counties, and ordering them to sub
side, and# threatening thorn two
counties with martial law. This was
followed by a neat meeting at Rock
ingham, at which young Morrison
denounced and defied Rowell, and
he I w * *-to Af fka anaaliaid ml fen.-L
ingham on Saturday before the elec
tion, Mr. Morrison aad Senator Till
man af Sooth Carolina made
speeches that stirred the people as
they had newer been stirred before.
Tho county wo* cam-id by a major
ity of over a thousand.
A few mornings after the election
the Raloigh New* and OWmrer de
clared that "The spirit ea.ly mani
fested in Richmond county that the
*whitcs would rule the land or die’
spread to adjoining counties. finally
permeated the whole cast, carrxrd
thirty counties, and saved the state
for democracy."
Cameron Morrison aroused that
spirit in Richmond county and was
the unquestioned leader of the move
ment.
At the same time he su leading
tho turbulent fight in Richmond
county, he went from Loir to time to
other counties of the state and spoke
for white supremacy and democ
racy.
Tho state was safe After the
slcction a banquet was given at
I-aurinburg In honor of Senator
Simmons and Mr. Mo.-rison, respect
ively state and coanty chairmen At
Otis banquet Senator Simmons said
that “the first real hope in tho cam
paign In the stats had been inspired
•n him by tho spirit of Riehmoivd
coanty under the splendid leader
ship of Cameron Morrison, and thnl
'when th* history of the movement
for whita supremacy came to be
I written no man would be giv*b
floater credit for the victory than
Cameron Morrison.” Later on, the
people of Rockingham gave Mr. Mor
rison a banquet in recognition of his
services to the couaty.
Whon the democratic county of
ficers were Inaugurated In Richmond
couaty, Morrison was carried from
office to office in the court house,
and made to speak from a table in
every office.
Following the victory in 1898 the
fight for the constitutional amend
ment was inaugurated. There were
many who doubted the wisdom of
the movement. Morrison was om
of those who vigorously advocated it.
He was on* of tho young men who
stood with Simmons in Raleigh for
uroelca urging the bill through the
legislature. There is small wonder
that Senator 8Immoral is for Mr.
Morrison ia his candidacy for gov
ernor after their experiences to
gether ia those stirring times.
Mr. Morrison has never held pub
lic office except In tho sen etc brunch
of the genaral asaembly in ISO], and
as mayor of th* town of Rocking
ham. Mr. Morrison's friends, how
ever. are not urging his candidacy
on tho ground* of party sorvie*
rendered in tho campaigns of 1892
to 1D0U alone, but because he has
continued hi* services to the party
and the people of the state up to',
and including, tho Inst spreial elec
tion in tho Ninth congressional dis
trict.
Sine* the redemption of the state
from flusnellitm and Butlerism, Mr.
Morrison ha* beon in every import
ant party council where grave pol
Iciee were considered and adopted,
la the last presidential campaign he
was elector at large, and eanvassod
the state for Woodrow Wilson from
Pasquotank to Swain at kia awn ex.
power. Hr has hem chairman of the
platform- committee a greater num
ber of tiara than any other living
North Carolinian. fie has always
fought back all isms and schemes to
attach unsound politics to th* demo
cratic party, and canard the party to
ndhara to a policy af constructive op
buiiding. He has consistently end
successfully fought to hold tho party
true to a policy of education, health
protection, good roads, scientific ag
riculture. and encouragement to ev
ery legitimate industry of the state.
No man lit North Carolina has had
morn to do than Morrison with the
shaping af thexpolicies of th* demo
cratic party OT the state since th*
defeat of Russell end Butler. In the
great conventions and party ceuaeiU
he hat met in dehat* the strongest
intellects in North Caroline, end has
demonstrated a knowledge of basic
principles of statesmanship that has
enabled him to lead the party la
the adoption of wise poHcta*. In the
last twenty-eight yearn he has made
mare speechdp, for the democratic
party than any private citixen In th*
state.
For tea or aeon- yean Mr. Morri
eoa has lived in Charlotte, having
removed here for th* practice of his
profcasloa. In Mecklenburg, as in

A Business Man’s Opinion
OF MR. PACE
Mr. Gilbert T. Stephenson, Secretary
and Trust Officer of the Wachovia Bank
and Trust Company, and a very discrimi
nating student of public affairs, add* his
endorsement to Mr. Page’s candidacy:
WACHOVIA BANK 4 TRUST CO.
Winston-Salem. N. C.
March 13. 1920.
Mr. Charles Rosa,
Dc /
Let me congratulate you upon assum
ing the management of Mr. Page’s cam
paign. I was associated with Mr. Page
during 1918 in the War Savings Cam
paign, he being one of the Vice-Direc
tors for the state; and during that asso
ciation I formed a very high regard for
hia patriotism and ability. And what
I have liked about Mr. Page’s utterances
since he announced his candidacy ia the
straightforward way in which he haa
put hia ease up to the Democratic voters
of North Carolina; he has not dealt in
glittering generalities but has stated suc
cinctly hia platform and has given the
reasons why he stands fur certain pro
gressive steps, and whether one agrees
with all of Mr. Page’s planks or not, he
Is bound to havo an admiration for a man
who takes the voters into his confidence
and let them know what to expect if he
is alscted.
With kind regard^l am,
8incerely yours,
(Signed)
GILBERT T. STEPHENSON.
