Taking mi the defeat of Mr. Norwood first, v e find that a study of the Enfield vote will give us a pointer not to be forgotten in later years. Mr. Johnson’s home precinct cast 1ST votes for Norwood, lob for Kitchin. 151 for Mr. Johnson. In short some 250 voters there voted for Mr. Johns ,n and for nobody else in that particular race. Contrast that with the vote here or the vote in Sc >tl m 5 Neck, where the vote for second civ:,-.' was split among the candidates. Had 60 local voters, rot voted for anyone but Mr. Ner ve.::! he would have been elected. Trailing the work of the machine, we find Ni iwood lo-ing in Weldon. Mr. Green s home j .. pet.

Aral a t"i|v check, si: vs that t-, ■ J. T. CBase, popular < hnirman 11 the County Road Be.:tv., supplicated to run by the old members of t :at board when he actually desired to re-ign, ran k v: in said Weldon and Enfield and Halifax pre cir.cts, leaving out the King-Harvey fight. The only reason we can figure for the drop in his usually high vote Was the fact he came from Roa noke Rapids. In summary, Mr..Green and Mr. Steadman, who made no bones about calling off their dogs if Mr. Joyner would line up with them, came near to defeating him as they threatened to do, and did defeat our local candidate for Representative. Heroic efforts had to be used to keep them from running a local man against still another local of-1 ficer, Mr. Tovve, on the School Board. Still more j heroic efforts must be forthcoming to keep him there, we understand. We give all these facts without rancor or prejudice. We envy them their unity and orga nization. We relate these facts and figures not as a criticism aimed at them but at our own town ship where we failed, just as we predicted, in get ting together. We failed in advance organization. We failed to get our vote. We failed properly to instruct the vote we did get out. After all, we have none to blame for our defeats and near de feats but ourselves. Such is the final analysis. We will keep hammering along. We hear ex pressions by the hundreds from every walk of life which give us confidence that the day is not far off when our leaders will get together, when the people will demand they get together. In the meantime, unrepresented or sparsely represent ed, we will watch like a hawk every move of those in office and likewise those behind the throne. THE MORNING AFTER The Bailey Victory by 70,000 majority with a huge vote cast despite the bad weather, was as much a surprise to ardent Bailey supporters as it was to friends of Mr. Simmons. 40,000 was the figure set. with RCDOO a maximum for the most conservative. Now we tan hope for a cementing of the bit ter feelings always left in the wake of a highly emotional campaign and a united parti onto more. Truly. Mr. Bailey carried on one of the most gen tlemanly campaigns we have ever witnessed. Never once did he or his supporters - ay a thing which could ne considered malignant or hurtful to the character ,-r reputation of the aged Senator. The sole issu ■ rasied was one of party regu larity. Independent voters cannot unite get the idea. Well, toys, all we can liken it to is your old college days. Remember hoiv we hated the guy in our class >vho always bet against the old Alma Mater in the big football games—and usually won. No words in the dictionary could fully ex press our feelings toward that guy for turning again t his men team, even when he knew it was going to lose The old college spirit, boys. Wmvie—look at that Weldon vote if you don't .relieve v. e we say about the pow r of certain eaders. N mvood scratched. Joyner annihilated, frawlev carried down with Joyr.er because he ,vas thought to be friendly. Even T. Chase lost i few votes In cause he was from her Weldon and Enfield sure cooked our potatoes They have wonderful leadership when it comes to voting. But here is something we will want ex plained here 'or many years to eome. Why should these two precincts, which practically controlled this county election, show the following votes. Weldor,: Bail y. 155. Simmons 252: Enfield, Bail s' 225. Sun moos 252. Looks like dirty work at the cross r< ads to ti.-.

A Greek at En- i field, evidently Led on by the big Simmons seriti- i meat in that township, banner Simmons precinct. f of Halifax, bet his shirt on the Senator. Yester day his customers lined up at his counter, threat- , ened dire punishment, collected some $900 in bets. Congratulations to Enfield. Those folks are politicians of the first water. Most 250 of them j voted for Mac Johnson only and he won. Had 60 of them voted also for Billy Norwood, Billy would have beat Mac. That’s politics, call it what else you may. Hunt Parker carried the county over Tyler 1 by a majority of 3,343. He even carried Warren over the opposition of Congressman Carr. Hunt's majority in the district will run 6,000. He carried ’ every county but Tyler’s home county. Good boy. Hunt. We are as happy as we know you are about : it. -- ; We let State and National races overshadow , the most important of all: our local races where- < in we get direct representation. Here we are with ail our wealth and population and no Representa tive at Raleigh. And how we need it for the next two years. Well, maybe this will be a lasting les son. We hafe to say we told you so. Rather we ask, what are we dumb-bells, going to do about it in the future? Sure, get mad. Get fighting mad with us or anybody else. But stay mad. Maybe if we all get that way, we will whip somebody yet. | Oh, what a Headache. THINGS THAT NEVER HAPPEN /so voof?T. LOOK\N6 A S— Foe A POSITION vSlTH IM THE EASIEST Ljj^j ^ MS FIRM.
