PROBABLE CANDIDATES
FOR GOVERNOR.
What the Papers are Saying as to
Who May be in the Race to Succeed
Governor Craig.
Sanford Express.
A number of North Carolinians are
being mentioned in connection with
the Democratic nomination for Gover
nor in 1916. Rumor says Associate
Justice W. R. Allen of the Supreme
Court and A. W. McLean of Lumber
ton will be candidates for the office
of chief executive; Both men have
strong and influential friends. Judge
Allen, on account of his long service
on the Superior Court bench, knows
practically every influential politi
cian in the State. Mr. .McLean has
been active politically for the past
few years and was a tower of strength
in the Wilson-Simmons organization
in North Carolina. It is believed that
Attorney-General T. W. Bickett, Sec
retary of State J. Bryan Grimes and
Treasurer B. R. Lacy will be in the
running for Governor. Close friends
of H. A. Page have mentioned him
as a likely candidate. With any three
of these men in the contest the race
will not be uninteresting.

Among the probable candidates for
Governor in 1916, A. W. McLean, of
Robeson county is beginning to loom
up. A special Morehead correspondent
of the Wilmington Dispatch says:
"Among the ' interesting political
rumors heard about the water es
pecially when one is fishing is that
Associate Justice W. R. Allen of the
Supreme Court will be a candidate
for Governor in 1916. It is practically
certain that A. W. McLean, of Lum
berton will be in the race, and it is
said here that Attorney General T,
W. Bickett is another strong probabil
ity. Among others mentioned are
State Treasurer Lacy and Secretary
of State Bryaa Grimes. Persons with
a knowledge of politics in this State
say that a contest in which Judge Al
len and Mr. McLean are running will
be as exciting as the race for the pen
nant in the Carolina League."

Washipgton Cor., Wilmington Star.
Representative Godwin believes the
sixth district will furnish the next
Governor for North Carolina and that
A .W. McLean, the well known bank
er of Lumberton, will be the man. It
is generally understood about Lum
berton, Mr. Godwin says, that Mr.
McLean will be a candidate to suc
ceed Governor Craig.
Government Funds to Facilitate Move
ment of Crops.
Washington Dispatch, July 31.
Twenty-five to fifty million dollars
of government funds will be deposited
in the National banks of the South
and West at once by Secretary Mc
Adoo to facilitate the movement of
crops. Federal, State and municipal
bonds and prime commercial paper
will be accepted as security for the
money upon which the banks will pay
2 per cent interest
The motive of Secretary McAdoo in
establishing this new policy is to an
ticipate the money stringency in the
late summer and fall, which invariably
accompanies the marketing and move
ment of crops, especially when the
crops are unusually large, as the har
vest now beginning forecasts. He
intends to take time by the forelock
and prevent or minimize the usual
tightness of money.
In a statement today the Secretary
made significant answer that govern
ment bonds would be accepted at par
as security for the new deposits and
that additional money would be plac
ed only with bankfe which have taken
out at least 40 per cent of their au
thorized circulation.
Three Biggest Polical Jobs in This
Section of State Distributed Bailey
to Be Collector and Winston District
Attorney.-
Washrington Cor., July 31, Wilming
ton Star.
Josiah William Bailey of Raleigh,
was recommended today to Secretary
of the Treasury McAdoo for collector
of internal revenue for Eastern North
Carolina to succeed Wheeler Martin,
the Republican incumbent. Bailey's
nomination, it is believed, will be sent
to the Senate in short order and" lie
will take charge of his new job im
mediately after he is confirmed and a
satisfactory bond executed. Senator
Simmons presented the Raleigh man's
name to Mr. McAdoo.
Francis D. Winston is now almost
certain to be district attorney to sue
ceed H. F. Seawell, of Carthage, and
W. T. Dortch will be named marshal,
thus ending the eastern patronage
fight for the three biggest jobs in
that section of the State. Dortch. has
already been recommended for the
place now held toy Marshal Dockery,
and it is understood Winston will be
recommended by Senator Simmons for
the District Attorneyship as soon as
definite information can be obtained
as to when Seawell will be remov
ed.
The delay in selecting a man for
the colectorship in the east was prob
ably due to the fact that both Win
ston and Bailey wanted the more dig
nified job now held by Seawell. Bai
ley's decision to accept the collector
ship in the east was probablv due
to the fact that both Winston and
Bailey wanted the mere dignified job
now held by Seawell.t Bailey's decis
ion to accept the collectorship, it is
understood, leaves a clear field for
Winston.
On the Right Road.
Sit. Paul's Messesger.
People who pass through our sec
tion remark about the fine farms and
good crops they see around here.
Crops are very good and the farmers
are making progress, but there will
be a greater improvement still within
the next few years. These people are
just starting on the right road.
There is this difference between a
wise man and a fool; the wise man
expects future things, but does not
depend upon them, and in the mean
time enjoys the present, remembering
the past with delight. But the
fool is wholly carried on to the fu
ture. Epicurus.
