IS M I" VOLUME 92. DURHAM, N. C, AUGUST 4, 1910. NUMB TCECiumTJiso;; 4 t"-tt rid Eitca. ictctelv cu tze crn, , Notwithzi&ndinz , the hot weather, tha "Old ZIan"cnte in Monday to sse us and talk over what he had seen during the past few days. "I do not understand," he said, "why , Republicans scrap so among themselves over the nomi nation of candidates for office that is still so hard co land, nor why they work so hard to get to go to the various conventions, when every fellow bears his own expense and loses time. Of course it may be with the hope of reward in one way or another, but to many of them it has been a case of following the chase all their days and nothing better has loomed up for them. "However, there is evidently something fascinating about poli tics to men that once get a taste, as in other business or life rela tions. We see men struggling every day for leadership in poli tics and many of them for no other reason than to be leader, and wonder what they would do if politics did not furnish them same avenue of escape from thcruslves. "tliy solstions of the Repub lican J-twlion in Durham county have bta suggested and doubt 1 ; all of them will fall thrccsh when the ccavtntion meet! Sat urday in the court house. The main thing that appears to be oc cupying the minds of those seek ing to lead is whether Durham county shall instruct for More head or some other leader in state politics, and consideration of who shall run for the county offices comes in for very little discussion. It has been suggest ed by some Democrats that the Republicans could do the proper thing by refusing to nominato a cindidate for ths Legislature ajainst General Carr, but this docs not find favor at the hands of the Republicans, and the indi cations are that a full ticket will be named and the campaign be gun in earnest, but just the kind of ticket to be named remains for the . convention to decide. Many besides the regular dele gates, or Republicans for that matter, will attend the conven tion Saturday and from what is being talked, they will be repaid by seeing things done in lively fashion. "If attractions continue to be pulled off for Saturday at the court house, Lakewood park might ai well suspend for the day time and only expect crowds tt night, when the court house is closed. Last Saturday morning the court room was filled to hear a trial that had been much talked and all were wondering what the outcome would be. Mr. Loven tela had employed four lawyers to look after his interests and Messrs. Bryant and Chambers were on hand to look after the interests of the state. The num ber of people turning out to wit ness the trial indicated the popu lir interest of the case and the outcome was just about what many had said it would be. ' i iiiiii n L - Durham baseball fans have had ft treat for the past two dayi in ieing the Foleigh-Fayetteville Series of two games which were t'layed here. In both games Ral eigh won, taking the first one by the score 8 to 2, and the second U tJli Ez:i::l Icier a v Th .case s of embezzlement 8i!st Attorney Benjamin J. Lovenstein was aired in the Re orders court last Friday and a brilliant array of legal talent on both sides added interest to the trial ::y --.A. . :' f : -.-V;. According to the evidence it seems that Mr. Lovenstein was employed by Henrietta Bumpaas to appear for her in a case for retailing. The woman was placed in jail, and upon recom mendation, secured the lawyer. He found that the, woman had money at her disposal and told her to let him have a hundred dollars to get her out, that being the amount of her bond. Mr. Lovenstein charged her $25 for bis trouble and for appearing for her the next morning. Tht law yer then went to a relative of his and got him to stand for the woman's bond. At the trial next morning the woman had secured Mr. Bryant to represent her and after the trial demanded of Mr. Loven stein the balance due her of 175. After much delay Mr. Loven stein drew a check for 175 and gave it to the woman. This check, when presented at the bank, fc proved worthless. The affair was placed in the hands of Mr. Bryant for collection. Lovenstein then left town and was later found in Oxford. He was arrested there and placed under bond for his-Appearance at the Recorder's court ; ttS rCsa oftbe Recorder that - there was probable cause and his bond was fixed at $750. v - Another case against Loven stein was brought up by The Royal & Borden Co., in which he was charged with giving worthless checks. In this case he was fined $10 and costs, but appealed to the higher courts. The whole affair will be threshed out in the August terra, of the Superior court. 1; ers Case Settle! The case of Mr. Roscoe Ayers gainst his wife for kidnapping their child from the husband has been settled. Chief Justice Clark deciding that the father should have the child three-fourths of the time and the mother having it the other fourth. This ar rangement proves satisfactory to both parties, as Mr. Ayers is bet ter financially able to care for the child. The mother will not have the burden of rearing the child but will be allowed occas ional visits, not to extend over a period of three months. , It was thought by neighbors that a reconciliation would be made between the parents, but the differences could not be set tled. The mother has left for her home in Roanoke and will comoback from time to time to visit her child. Mr. It. G. Anderson, represen tative of the West Publishing Co., of St. Paul, Minn., has been tendered the professorship of law at Trinity college, and has accepted and will take up his new duties September 1st He is well known in Durham where he has made his headquarters for some time. He is a young man, well learned in law and will make a valuable addition to the law faculty of Trinity college. - The twelve months old child of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Veasey, of Stagvillo, died last Thursday at their home. The funeral took KTCaJCM CCl'XTT TZZiZX. CrKi fen-Kid Crimea ti Crrtisi for Ckirra. The Republican county pri maries held last Friday and Sat urday departed somewhat from the ideal "harmony" program of the leaders, and snowed surpris ing opposition to many of their pet ideal The captains of Want-to-be-Chief Morehead had stirred themselves lively to get their men to the polls, horses and bug gies being , very much , in evi dence. Into the highways and hedges they had , gone nd brought the wayfaring brother in. But the Duncanites were also busy.; They had quietly rounded themselves int shape. Of course it was admitted thatj Morehead would get the majori ty which he did but not with out vigorous opposition, and some of it coming from high places. The fun proper, of which the primaries were but the advace guard, will be next Saturday, when the convention is pulled off, and which promises to put out of business the " carnival, Lake wood park, and the city base ball games. It has been suggested by some that the convention be held in the Academy of Musi . and a quarter admission charged and the proceeds to go into the treasury of the Grand Army of Indigestive Pie-Eaters. Anyhow, District Attorney Hoi ton will furnish the powder to blowup the Duncan crowd and his speech will be worth the trouble. The effect that the Morehead-chairman-endorsement will have on local politics is also interest ins, - It smtcs that nearly all tfee men who have been mentioned for the legislature to oppose CoL Carr, are not in sympathy with Morehead and consequently will not enter the race. They are afraid of the consequences. And incidentally, it seems to be a hard proposition to find a More- head man who the party wants. All this will be settled Saturday, and the culmination of the "har mony" program will take place. Person lepabtlcao Convention. The county convention of Per son Republicans met last Satur day and nominated candidates for the various offices. The af fair was tame enough except for the nomination of a Register of Deeds. For this office there were four contestants. A considerable wrangle occurred when East Roxboro cast her whole vote for Satterfield, giving him a majority over all opposition. This vote was contested on account of its not being cast according to in structions of the primary vote. After dividing the vote according to instructions, Satterfield was nominated after long balloting. The nominees are: For HouseJ of Representative?, F. 0. Carver. . ' For Sheriff, T. D. Winstead. For Treasurer, 0. L. Satter field. For Register of Deeds, M. W. Satterfield. For Chairman of the executive committee, VV. D. Merritt. For County Commisssoners, J. P. Wade, A., P. Clayton, David Long. For Coroner, J. R. Hamlin. For Surveyor, W.T. Buchanan. Resolutions endorsing More- head for state chairman were passed without opposition. Mr. F, M. Tilley, county com missioner, brought his son Roy al, to Durham Tuesday to have an operation performed on him for a nose and throat trouble. The operation was successful and Ihe boy is getting on as well as C:::l Is Let t:r Erccii:a o! Kaisn . Cs8 t:r C!i les. ' With prayer and thanksgiving, the founders of the Old Ladies' Horns, turned the first dirt for the excavations of a foundation for tha Home. ; The contractors then took the work and made their beginning which they are bonded to have completed by the first of December. ' The building is to be of frame structare, two stores, with a large basement, of dimensions 68 by 01 feet It will have a dining room, kitchen, pantry, laundry, reception room and thirteen bed rooms. '? It will have baths and toilets on both floors, and will have , large and convenient porches. It is designed for com fort arid convenience and neither pains nor expense will be spared. - While built especially for old ladies, it will also be the home of worthy girls who need protec tion.. This is" in the event that the home is not filled by the old ladies. The Home is not denomi national, and is open to all. The building will be erected at the corner of Guess street and Gloria Avenue," to the rear of the hospital The erection of the building has been made possible from contributions, the largest being made by Mr. Brodie L. Duke. Five thousand dollars have been raised and there yet! remains about $2000 to be se cured. It is hoped to have all in hand by the time of the comple tion. I feel that the first thing I should mention is the icecream supper which was givcif af Eaar Mangum's Saturday nierht .The cream, which was fine, was made by Misses Maggie Bowling and Nannie Flintom. It was greatly enjoyed by all who were present, numbering about seventy, Mr. James Malone and Mr. Clarence O'Briant gave the supper. I will say that all who were not there missed a grand time. Meetings are in progress at Mt Zion Baptist and Mt Bethel Meth odist churches this week. We are sorry to hear of Mr. Hudson be ing called from his church last week on account of the illness of his wife. Hope she will soon be able for him to be able to take up his work again. 1 tlunk that if there is very much more visiting from Rouge- mont to Littleton by our young men, we will lose him or else we will gain another neighbor. Ha, ... ha, don't any of you who are not guilty bother about this at all. M. K. C possibly you are the very person that the young man mentioned in last issue wishes to talk to suit him and maybe he doesn't ant anybody else to help uuu vuu Farmers are about through lay. ing by their crops now and I think they are more pleased with their tobacco crop than they were a month ago. It is doing fairly well now. Miss Addie Andrews and Miss Tink Glenn are attending the meeting at Mt Bcthesda this week.
