STATE AND NATIONAL FIGHT IN LAST LAP (Continued from Page One) pie has always been that their Presi dent must have his hand on the en tire nation, that he should come from a thickly populated section well versed, however, in the needs of sur banites or residents in the rural neighborhoods, and, perhaps, that he should never adorn himself with sunflowers at a climatic time when sunflowers are already wilted and dead. A nice state, Kansas, broad in ex panse and wild and woolly in its early day life, but if a Kansasan goes into the White House come down to The Herald office next Wednesday and help the editor eat crow. Between now and Tuesday, Chair man Winborne says, there will be more than 1,000 precinct meetings held in North Carolina. He has call ed on each of the 1851 precinct chairmen to “bear down” during the last two weeks before the primary. A precinct-by-precinct survey of the conditions in each county of the State indicates that the majority of the precincts are better organized than ever before, although both or ganization and enthusiasm are lag ging in a number of counties. There has been more work than ever before among the Democratic women of the State and among the Democratic veterans while the Young Democra tic Clubs are more numerous and more active than during any election year since the movement started, headquarters reported. Reports from every county of the State indicate that at least 43 of the 100 counties the Democratic vote will be greater than it was in 1932, the banner year of Democracy in North Carolina. On the other hand, the surveys show that unless a great deal of work- done during the last two weeks the vote in 21 counties will be less than in 1932. The situa tion in the remaining 36 counties caused observers to forecast a vote about equal to that of four years ago. If these surveys or reports prove accurate, the total Democratic vote should go above the half million mark. However, Chairman Win borne pointed out that this year the Republicans as well as the Democrats are doing more work than usual. “And there is an awful lot of Repub lican money from somewhere being turned loose in the State,” he added. “It is of the utmost importance that we keep driving ahead until sundown November 3.” ROTARIANS DINE IN HERTFORD (Continued from Page One) based on love and respect, pays back, pays off, if you wish to put it -that way, dividends, material and spirit ual dividends, beyond our fondest expectations.” Mr. Bryan commented on the tan gible work which Rotarians are do ing, of which he was proud, “but,” said he, those things which are done which can be seen, which can be measured, are not the greatest con tributions that Rotary has made to the world. I believe that the highest contribution that Rotary has made to the world is the cultivation of the i individual Rotarian, in Rotary ideals. | “With all due respect to the teach ers and preachers, to those who teach and who preach ideals to us, it is not the teacher nor the preacher who ultimately conditions our com munity, but it is the practical man of every-day affairs, the man out in the channels of trade, out In the give and-take world of commerce who ultimately conditions our community and our world.” The next inter-city meeting will be held in Elizabeth City. THE CHOWAN HERALD EDENTON. N. C., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1936. COUNTY RALLIES TO CLIMAX ON MONDAY (Continued from Page One) ment of the campaign in this Coun ty, nas left no stone unturned to guarantee a record vote on Tuesday. Last Saturday, he said, was the last day for registration and he urged the workers to see that every laggard got his or her name on the books and had thus become eligible for a vote on Tuesday. So far the registration Is a little over normal, in some precincts it has bedn substantially high, while in others it has run along as on pre vious years. Four years ago the Chowan Demo cratic vote was around 1650, accord ing to R. D. Dixon, court clerk and secretary of the county committee, with about 50 votes cast for Hoover and five for Norman Thomas, the Socialist candidate. The Thomas ad herents failed to qualify in North Carolina this year and thereby lost a place on the ballot. The County ticket is as follows: For State Senator—W. I. Halstead and John F. White. For House of Representatives — John F. White. For Sheriff—J. A. Bunch. For Register of Deeds —M. L. Bunch. For Judge Recorder’s Court—J. N. Pruden. For Prosecuting Attorney Record er’s Court —W. S. Privott. For Treasurer—Geo. C. Hoskins. For County Commissioners — D. M. Warren, W. H. Winborne, A. C. Boyce, J. A. Webb and A. D. Ward. For Board of Education —S. E. Morris, Isaac Byrum, Z. T. Evans, Mrs. Geo. C. Wood and L. W. Belch. For Constable First Township—E. L. White. For Constable Second Township— H. W. Dale. For Constable Third Township—J. J. Byrum.

FOREHAND SEEKS RELEASE (Continued from Page One) hospital head declares Forehand has maniacal tendencies and his release would be a menace to society. This letter was received Monday by Fore hand’s lawyer, W. D. Pruden, and proved so confusing, cross-purposing as it did the earlier certificate of doubt on the strength of which Mr. Pruden was able to secure a habeas corpus writ from Judge Frizzelle a further delay in presenting the mat ter. Similar word from the state in sane asylum derogatory of Fore hand’s mental competency has been received by John F. White, attorney for Mrs. Eva Lucille Forehand, the prisoner’s wife, who is making the fight to keep Forehand in custody. And still another angle to the case is evidenced by action brought by Mrs. Forehand, through J. N. Pru den, to have a prospective bonus certificate of $645 due her prisoner husband, applied toward payment of a $2,000 note due by him to S. J. White, Paradise section farmer. Mrs. Forehand, in the same papers, sets forth that her husband is, also, men tally unfit to control a small farm he owns in Third Township and begs of the court the right to dispose of it in his behalf. Forehand, who talks intelligibly and seems far from a paranoiac, seeks his release, his attorney states, so that he may be privileged to at tend to his own business affairs and handle his obligations in away sat isfactory to all concerned. A former resident of this county, Forehand has had a trying time since the war. He was gassed during the last month of the world struggle and for a time was detained in a Paris hospital. Later he was in re habilitation hospitals in the United States and served two periods at | ANNOUNCING THE OPENING OF Hotel Joseph Hewes Coffee Shop SUNDAY, NOVEMBER Ist AT NOON To celebrate the beginning of the present management’s sec-, ond year in Edenton, and to further its usual policy of improving the Hotel’s service and accommodation wherever possible.
