Siory, and It Given a New Appelation
for Oratory.
By M. R. DUNNAGAN
Raleigh, N. C.?Senator William
R. Lovill, of Watauga County,
"sprung one" on the North Carolina
Senate at the "love feast" held last
Wednesday night while presents were
being presented, in his oratory occasioned
by his presentation to LeRoy
Martin, principal clerk, a set of silver
plates as a gift from the Senators.
Now, in addition to the "Grand Old I
Man of the Mountains." he has the t
additional appeiation of?. "The Blue <
r?id(Tn "
He took occasion to speak in glow- f
irtg terms particularly oi the men 1
he had known before he came to the
Senate, including Senator Grier, of
Iredell, Senator Hendreu of Forsyth,
and, as he put it, by proxy,
Senator John H. Folgcr of Surry.
Also, he waxed eloquent in his laudation
of Principal Clerk Martin, recalling
that he was born at the old c>
Marion home within one mile of Pilot
Mountain in Surry County, and has
two uncles, John and Eli Davis, residents
of Yadkin County
Senator Lovili Ipuded Senator
Grier for his steadfast character and
honorable and manly traits. He told
of an incident in which Senator Hen- -x
dren had aided him in a matter in SI
Winston-Salem, saying "If you all jn
knew Will Hendren as well as I do, g;
you could not help but love him \
dearly. D
"1 did not know Senator Folgcr jr
until t came here to this session, but be
I want to recall an incident which
draws me near and dear to hiin. It R;
was his uncle, Rom Folger, sturdy, ye
honorable and brave, who picked up jj<
my father, who had been shot or
through both hips on the battlefield m
At Gettysburg and left to die, enr- aI
ried him bodily to u safe place, made i0!
him comfortable and returned to the|
firing line. But for that incident, II wi
would not be here today. How can I kj;

Senator Loviil said in the course
of his remarks that he was related or
to Principal Clerk Martin, though he *
probably uid not know it, and that
he along with nil the Senators had
come to love and respect their 6fficial.

OF STORE ROBBERS
AsSic Couat3' Man and Wife Now Being
Held in Anhe County Jail on
Sinister Charges. Search Warrants
Reveal Quantities of Merchandise
in Dwelling, Eller McNeil Recognizes
Cost Mark on Carton.
I John Jenkins, resident of the Cres|
ton community in Ashe County, was
j pte.cea in the Jefferson jail last Sunday,
his wife who was formerly Miss
.josepmne L.ovill ol JJoone was imprisoned
a few days previous, the
charges including check flashing, forgery,
etc., and with the arrest of the
former, coupled with subsequent findings,
it is believed that a clue has
been established which will lead to
the complete unearthing of the mystery
which has surrounded the robbery
of numbers of stores throughout
Watauga County, and .Johnson
County, Tennessee, as well as in
Ashe County.
Sheriff Karl Madron of Johnson
County, it is said, first found evidence
leading to the suspicion of Jenkins
in connection with store breakI
ing. He held a warrant for his arrest,
! apprehended him near Mabel in Wa|
tuuga County, and searched his automobile
when it was deserted and
when various bits and augurs were,
found in the vehicle, it was immediately
recalled that the method of
entering the mercantile establishments
had been by boring from be!
neath the floor?an almost noiseless
| method.
Eller McNeil, of Rutherwoud, who
was the victim of a wholesale robbery
a few weeks ago, a section of ;
the floor having been removed by ?;
boring, sought the aid of the Sheriff's
office and he. in company with Deputy
H. A. Hagaman and an Ashe
County official, secured a search
warrant on Tuesday and made a
thorough survey of the Jenkins home
at Creston. Mr. McNeil states that
quantities of merchandise of varioua sfM
descriptions were 'fount! throughout
the house, and that while he was reasonably
sure of his ownership of some
of the wettriner annarel. he wmflSKtf
h*ve testified to them, as all labels ,
and containers bad been removed. ^
ifiertuBe, cafi ic.d his cost marii, *htrtt I
he was able id positively identify.
The Rutlierwood merchant recalled
an incident to The Democrat which
occurred sonie time before his store
was entered, which appears to be
an important link in the chain of
evidence which is rapidly forming. A
titan and lady stopped at his store
to purchase gasoline. While he was
transacting the business with the
ladv, the man walked away to the
