When but a country boy, he entered the Confederate army, followed the immortal Lee four ye irs, an 1 walkel home irom Appomattox barefooted. 2. After the war, starting with no capital save his good character, he has achieved success as a farmer and merchant and is now recognized as one of the foremost business men in North Carolina. 3. He is not a politician, but is a plain business man and farmer, who will give the State a business a lministration. 4. He belongs to no combine and is run by no machine, but is the candidate of the workingman, who wants to see a! man of his class in the Executive chair. . ! He is a Confederate soldier and this is the last opportunity that we will hare to make one Governor. The last Confederate soldier who was Governor of North Carolina was a Republican. Can it be said that the Republican p irty remembers the men who fol lowed Lee and Jackson and that the Democratic party forgets them? 1 WITH AtNT BECKY. Eagle Furniture and Carpet Co. Lumberton, N.
