Majority Col- Correspondenc ot The 0eer, ' V- Jeffersou, Oct. J8- Th mountain were la labor, and behold thrsa thons- and. Tha result was the same a it Is everywhere ex-Governor Aycock is advertised to speak., Ash county has a votlojr population 4t 1.800 and tney aii came -weiuocrats, - KepuDit cans, Independent and floatsrs. Gov ernor Ayoockls held la such peculiar esteem in 'As be county that each man present regardless of ill" political af- nuauoo." clamored, for standing room within hearing distance. 4 It had been arranged 1 far th aoeakar to occupy tha court room, .dufing the noon ra ce -of1 cdurt, but almost a . soon .as court met. that room waa nuea . to lta . utmost 'capacity and the eager throng outside kept Increasing until It was seen that not mora, than one fourth of the crowd could get In, hence a platform waa soon arranged on the main street In front of the Jaw office of Todd ft Ballon, and when court adjourned for noon recess it waa announced that the speaking would take place at this platform on the street The crowd In the court room immediately began to pour through the doors like mad hornets from ,a disturbed nest and tha enor mous hordes on the outside caught tha spirit and the rush down the street became a veritable stampede, literally fighting for. position near the speak er. When the speaking began, the attreet, which is one hundred feet wide, was Jammed for practically two blocks. The speaker was introduc ed by Mr. W. C. Fields, of Sparta, in a vef'y fitting speech of few word. Any attempt at a description or thor ough report of Oovernor Aycock'a apeech would not only be Impossible, but if possible would be monotonous to North Carolina people who have such favorable impressions of the speaker and his speeches. His hand ling of tha different' issues of the campaign was, of course, masterful, but was peculiarly interesting to Ashe county people. His discussion of the panic was particularly convincing, a well as amusing. He said that in the fall of last year the Russian surfs, acting upon their lifetime dream of American high wage and political freedom, flew from the ter rible Russian bear and came to New York to be greeted by the Teddy bear, and they Immediately flew back to Russia, carrying with them 60,000 others. This drew from the audience a hearty laughter which rapidly grew Into a wild applause. HI handling of the State Issues struck home to the extent of strengthening the Democrats and weakening the Republicans, many of whom were entirely converted. He ended with a powerful plea for every proud North Carolinian to stand by the Democratic party and vote the whole ticket Soon after this speaking Mr. Charles H, Cowles spoke in the court room to a well-filled house of Repub licans In behalf of -his candidacy for Congress. Ashe county has been in bad shape politically during this cam paign on account of local condition, but the enthusiasm aroused by the Aycock speech culminated In a great caucus and lov feast by the Demo crats Monday night when arrange ments were made to carry Ashe county over what began to look like two hundred Republican ma jority, and now this county can posi tively be counted on as a Democratic county. Superior Court 1 In session here this week and it is said that the en tire term will be taken up with the crimmai aocxet, ana there are no cases to be tried which would be of Interest to the State at large, most of them being petty offenses.
