In the course of hi apeech at the court houee Monday night, Mr. J. D. MeCall in aubstanca eaia: "There are aoma amart man In the Republican party, undoubtedly, but they never get recognition. Men like Walter Henry for Instance. Ha la as amart as be can be but he will never get within reaching distance or tne pie counter." Colonel Henry was asked by an Observer man what he had to say about thla deliverance of Mr. Me Call. Mr. Henry replied: "My good friend Mr. MeCall la a eplendld North Carolinian, a well equipped lawyer, a polished llteratus, and one of the beat campelgnera the Democrats have In this section of the State, but as a political prophet, hla opinion is not worth a continental." Continuing. Colonel Henry said: "I listened to my friend Mr. MeCall for an hour the other night at the Audi torium, prophesying the defeat of Mr. Hawkins In the primary. Mr. MeCall aaya I am mad. Now I am not mad, I am not mad. but I suspect he Is, because I wrote that addresa for the Republican commit tee. Yes h emuit have been mad or he would not hav lugged my name Into his speech aa he did. He said he was a . smooth politician and the way he brought me into his discourse was as skilful aa could be and as smooth as velvet. The touch was Machavelllan. "But I do not care. I have said nothing unkind of anyone. I have simply made logic talk. I stood for my party and its men. We wished either to defeat the Democratic can didate or at least to build up a potent organization." Colonel Henry observed: mere are two neode who nave oeen ireaien most unjustly in all this turmoil Tom Hawkins and J. D. MeCall. Some of the MeCall speakers cried out the other night. Who Is Tom Hawkins?' Where did he come from?1 I con fess that made me mad. I despise in justice. I have known Tom Hawkins for a quarter of a century. He has been a gentleman every inch of the time, and though he is in the slougn of Democracy, which ere long will be a Slough of Despond,' though I am against him politically, I will say that he had made a reputation as a lawyer, In central North Carolina, before some of Mr. McCall'a speakers had put on short pants "The other gentleman the Demo crats treated badly was Hon. J. D MeCall. He has been their political Goliath in this part of the State, and the Lord only knows how much he has to answer for In the wind-up. for devoting his brilliant sbllities to keeping in power the Copper-Head party, as the Democratic party was called In .the 'good old days' It seems to me. that common gratitude should have given him the nomina tion for the mayoralty without a rif fle, but that is no business of mine. "It will appear therefore, that while Mr. MoCall Is prognosticating that the Republicans of North Caro lina will not see that I 'get within reach of the pie counter,' he Is sim- nlv confusln them with the Demo crats who failed to give him his nomination. "I alone am responsible for the address issued by the Republican committee and I am ready to give any gentleman any sort of satisfaction that he may desire. The facts stated therein can be established by a thous and men." The pleasantry, of coiirse, was un derstood by all sensible men. FOUR TSt A NIGHT. Burglars Actlre In Dllworth Monday Nighl-raared Tbr-ee Store and Realdence Sot Much Missed. Tne residents ( , Dl I worth ware. somewhat tUrmed ' yesterday morn lng, when It waa learned that four burglaries had occurred the night be fore and that the places entered ware tne atorea of the Woodruff Pharma cy, J. 1. Blakeley. A. C Fits and Mrs. A. u. Champa. The large plate fflasa window In the front of the Woodruff Pharmacy had been smashed and It waa through the opening that th thlevea had an tered. Th cash drawer had been ran sacked and the cigar stand also. Lit tle money, however, was taken, as only a small amount had been left In the register the night before. The entrance to the Blakeley atore waa made In a similar manner, by break ing the front window and that of Mr. a. C. Flte'a likewise. The resl dence of Mrs. Champe, which was el so broken into, it Is thought, waa not entered. There were many small things on the floor, just under the broken window and had some one en tered these things would have bean demolished. Aa it was. everything w-as In place and nothing missed by ner. Messrs.

At jhe meeting yesterday of the cnuntyV commissioners, the $15,000 bridge'to be built across the Catawba river at Roizell'a ferry was the source of much study, as many plans for the 600-foot structure were be fore the board and many things were to be determined upon. Within the near future it is thought that the Mecklenburg commissioners will meet with the Oaston county board, that all the minor details will he devlded upon and that the work will be turned over to the most de- j sirahle bidder. ' The bridge will consist of four spans, and will be H12 feet long, the, work will be overhead and the j height above the water sufficient to ; assure safety. I Mr. K. T. Cansler waa present at I the meeting and suggested that the contractors be required to furnish s ficlent bond to protect all Interes and to guarantee the sa bridge, as well as the dep certified check, upon agreed. The announcement several weeks ago that It bad been decided definite ly to erect this bridge was received with much gratification by Mecklen burg citizens and especially by those who for years have had only the fer ries to get them across the river. The county board of health, con sisting of the commissioners Messrs. W. M. I,ong, chairman; J. A. New ell. W. J. Dunn, D. A. Henderson and W. N. McKee and Drs. R. L. Gib bon and B. J. Wltherapoon. re appointed Dr. C. S. McLaughlin as county physician. Other business attended to was the approving of bills and routine work. The meeting waa adjourned at 1 o'clock. NEW CONCERNS ADDED.
