WEDNE3DAY, July 22, .1908. A. LONDON, Editor. DEMOCRATIC NOMINEES. - For President, WILLIAM J.. BRYAN, of Nebraska. For Vice-President, JOHN W. KERN, of Indians. For Governor, W. W. KITCHIN, f Person. For Lieutenant-Governor, W. C. NEWLAND, of Caldwell. For Secretary of State, s J. BRYAN GRIMES, of Pitt. For Treasurer, B. R. LACY, of Wake. For Auditor, B. F. DIXON, of Cleveland. For Attorney-General, T. W. BICKETT, of Franklin. For Superintendent of Education, J. Y. JOYNER, of Guilford. For Insurance Commissioner, J. R. YOUNG, of Vance. For Commissioner of Agriculture, W. A. GRAHAM, of Lincoln. For Commissioner of Labor & Printing, M. L. SHIPMAN, of Henderson. For Corporation Commissioner, B. F. AYCOCK, of Wayne. Publicity in campaign contri butions is demanded by the plat form of the Democratic party adopted by the national conven tion recently held at Denver. While a large sum of money is needed to pay the necessary and legitimate expenses of every po litical campaign, especially the Presidential campaign, yet a great deal of money is used in every campaign improperly and often times for corrupt purposes. It will be remembered that four years ago Judge Parker, the Democratic nominee for President, asserted that large sums of money had been contributed by wealthy corporations for the Eepublican campaign fund, and this was de nied by President Roosevelt in the most indignant and emphatic manner. And yet it was afterwards proved to be true, and many thou sand dollars were proven to have been contributed by several insur ance companies in New York. The new treasurer (Mr. Sheldon) of the Republican national com mittee has announced with quite a flourish of trumpets that after the election he will publish the sources from which he has re ceived contributions for his cam paign fund. That will be some what like "locking the stable after the horse is stolen." It would be better and have a better effect if he would not wait until after the election but publish the contribu tions as they are received. Mr. Taft, the Republican nomi nee, has announced that the na tional committee of his party will accept no contributions this year from any corporation. If they ad here to this the Republican cam paign fund is likely to be many thousand dollars less than it was in 1904! A grand ovation was given Hon. John W. Kern, the Democratic nominee for Vice-President, on last Wedntsday night, by the citizens of Indianapolis, which was participated in by Republi cans as well as Democrats. The main speech was made by Vice President Fairbanks, who spoke in the most complimentary man ner of Mr. Kern, saying that he admired him as a neighbor, friend and fellow-citizen and rejoiced with him at the great distinction which had been conferred on him. It is quite a co-incidence that four years ago, when Mr. Fair banks was nominated for Vice President by the Republican con vention, Mr. Kern made . the speech of congratulation at the ovation , then given Mr. Fairbanks by Democrats and Republicans pi Indianapolis. Such pleasant in terchange of neighborly courtesies and compliments serve to- soften the political asperities. The president of the American Federation of Labor, Samuel Gompers, , has declared that, he will support Bryan - for president and will work for him. Quite a novel and "unique 'race is beinr run- from New York to Chicago, a distance of one thou sand miles. It is !, being made by 2,000 boys, each of whom is to run a half mile and each carrying a silver tube containing a message from the mayor of . New.' York to the mayor of Chicago. After each boy has run -his half mile he de livers the message to another, who is waiting for him. The start was made at 10 o'clock last Wed nesday morning from the steps of the city hall in New York. Judge Walter H. Neal rendered the State a valuable service in his charge to the grand jury of Wake county, last week, in calling at tention to the frequency of homi cides in the United States and the few convictions for them. He very forcibly, showed how cheap human life is regarded, and how inadequately murderers are pun ished. He very properly ascribed this inadequacy of punishment to the disadvantage under which the prosecution labors in selecting jurors, giving the defendants so many challenges and the State so few. Worable, Brooks aad Hayes. Editor Record : ''.: time for our Democratic oouveution is not far off, and I tfish to say a few words as to the wishes of a' great many Democrats in this section. We want C. W Womble for Sheriff. He made the race once when no ' one could be ejected on our ticket and only was beaten by seven votes. And a more honest or better man does not live in Chatham, and he is a true man in every respect, and a true Democrat. It is reported that Mr. C- W. Womble will run inde pendent if lie fails to get the nomi nation. This is done by men de siring his defeat and I know it is not true. A good many of U3 are for W. E. Drooks for one more term as Register .of Deeds. He has bsen faithful and true, and the . only charge I hear against him is that he has had it long enough. If he had not done hi3 duty well I would say so too, but as he has filled the olficrt well and has been court eous to everybody, I say give him another two years. I have often seen people who had a good horse that suited them well trade an 1 afterwards regret it. Give us Womble for Sheriff, Brooks for Register and Hayes for the Legislature, and we will give a rousing majority in this part of Chatham. T. M. By num. . Goldston, N. C, July 20th. Boling far the Legislature. Mr. Editor: I wish to ask the friends of Mr. M. J. Boling. candidate for the Legislature, to be sure and attend the primaries promptly, get his tickets out among the voters and urge his nomination. Mr. Boling is a business man, a brainy man and if elected will do honor to old Chatham. He is the man who is covering New Hope, Williams and other townships with phones and wires, and is do ing so much for Siler City and is willing to do as much for all of Chatham. He is the same Malley Boling who was born and reared near Merry Oaks, the son of the late Joe Boling. Let us rally up boys and show the people of Chat ham that we not only need but want a business man to the front: H. F. Wilson. Williams township, July 20. Liadsey for Commissioner. Mr.. Editor: I desire to say a few -words through your paper in advocacy of the nomination, of Mr. W. M. Lindsey for county commissioner, who comes from the northern central part of the county. In my opinion he is as good a man as we can get for the place both in business qualifica tions and strength; he has a large relationship and an exten sive acquaintance over the county. He never shunned a duty and has gone where others refused to work for his party. We can de pend on him as he is strictly honest and a Democrat to the core. I think it party wisdom to rotate in off ce. Let the different sections be represented thereby adding to our noble old Democratic party new life and fresh blood, and the victory js our3. . v . M. G. Elmore. Lindley, July 18, 1908. Commissioners suggested. To the Editor. ' AmoDg the many candidates suggested for the various county offices, few have been mentioned for the position of Commissioner. This is an important office and one in which experience is invalu able for the successful perfor mance of ils duties. Let me sug gest the names of three men for this position who combine ex perience with other qualifications that would make for us an active and efficient board. If the con vention will nominate S. W. Har rington, N. J. Wilson and W. O. Farrell, we think that no mistake will be made. Respectfully, J. B. At water. Bynrmi, July 21st; news- Mr. Kwg oa His Feet Again From the chariot to News. Mr. o. F. Iviag, former paper correspondent of thi3 city, is again in business in Boston, occupying a suit of rooms in the Journal building. Warrants were issued by some of his creditors for his arrest after his disappear ance several mouths ago. Mr. King.'ftowever, suddenly appear ed and delivered himself up, de claring that he had gone away to recoup from an attack of nervou3 prostration, and was amazed to learn of tbe charges against him. Mr. King is again issuing his financial bulletin and declares that the two purposes for which he lives now are to fight his ene mies and rehabilitate his business. Hayes for the Legislature. Fellow Democrats of Chatham: It is with pride and pleasure that I endorse every word that has been said in favor of II. H. Hayes for tho Legislature. I con sider the people of Chatham for tunate in having the privilege to nominate such a man. We all know Mr. Hayes; he needs no in troduction and he will take care of our interests. So, fellow citi zens, let us go to our primaries on the nrst day of August next and nominate R. H. Haves for Legislature. W. J. Durham. Roscoe, N. C, July 20, 1908. " . the Womble for Sheriff. Mr. Editor: Mr. C. W. Womble has announced his intention -of asking for the nomination for sheriff of Chatham county at the next convention of the Democratic party. Let us go for Mr. Womble. All who know him can truly say that he is a good man and a Christian gentleman. Give us Mr. W omble for sj&eriff ' and victory will be ours : ' v W. H. Gilmoro. Goldston, N. C, July 1G. The Democratic State executive committee will meet at Raleigh' tomorrow night and elect a chair man, who will probably be Mr. A H. Eller of Winston. Fearriogton for Sheriff. Mr. Editor: It is with earnestness that I urge the nomination of Mr. E. M. Fean iugton for sheriff of Chatham county. He is not only a capable and efficient man, but will make a faithful officer. The east side of Haw river has had no representa tive in one of the salaried county officers for nearly forty years and casts nearly one-third of tho Democratic votes in the county. We feel that wo are entitled to a fa:r share of the county officers. Give us Mr. Fearrington for sheriff and this part of the county will receive recognition which it has failed to get for many years. Stanley M. lliggsbee. Biggsbee, N. C, July 20th. Sanford Express: Fred, the young son of Mr. J. W. Cunning ham, was bitten on the leg by a cat at his home here last Sunday afternoon. Mr. Cunningham fear ing that the cat might have hydro phobia, killed it and sent its "head to the Medical College at Rich mond, for examination. His fears were confirmed when he received a message by wire Monday after noon stating that the cat had rabies. Mr. Cunningham, with his sod, caught the next train for Bichmond, where the latter is now being treated. Wades boro Messenger: . The biggest deal in farming land that has taken place in this section of the State in a long time was the sale of tho Wetmore place, at Bockingham, Mondav. Thi3 place, which is located in Wolf Pit town ship, Bichmond countv. contains 1,300 acres, and was the property oi irs. iranny U. Wall, of Bock ingham. The land brought $36,425. Messrs. Junius Di-cro-a yinn.h -LiOri2 of Tlnnkino-hnm ,nmi-A flir purchasers. Apex Journal: It is now five years smce Mail CjirriAr a J Wood purchased tho h ha is now driving over this route Dm mg that time the horse has beenin-cnnstfl.nt- i traveled something like thirty three thousand miW ki. eight thousand miles more than the distance around the world. - Mr. D. L. Bnvrl th t, : tahve in the last Legislature from Woman's Home. Companion for. August. . The August issue of Woman's Home Companion is full of .-delightful: stories just -the right sort of mid-summer reading. "Just ! to pick up the magazine and look at the little Dutch boy and the wind-mill on the cover makes you feel cool and comfortable. Then, when you open the magazine, you come across enough stories and entrancing illustrations to give you enjoyment for the entire month. Some of the authoas are Temple Bailey, Juliet Wilbor Tompkins, Marion Hill, gRuth Wilson Her rick, May Isabel Fisk. Clinton Dangerfield and Harvey J. O'Hig gins. And when we tell you that these stories are illustrated by Orson Lowell, Alice Barber Ste phens, Charlotte Weber-Ditzler and other famous artists, you will appreciate what a treat this sum mer magazine has in store for you. There are serious and practical things, too. Doctor Hale talks helpfully about "Sleep and Be Creation." "The Garden in Aug ust," many recipes for summer salads, meats and substitutes for meats by Fannie Merritt Farmer and Christine"1 Terhune Herrick, the Summer Fashions by Grace Margaret Gould, Sam Loyd's Own Puzzle Page, are a few of the things that will interest most every woman who reads the Au gust Woman's Home Companion. Editor's House Burglarized. jSpoci-iI to sews and Observer. Salisbury, July 18. The resi dence of John M. Julian, editor of the Salisbury Evening Post, was entered here last night by burglars, who extinguished a light at the editor's head, and while ransacking the house were discov ered by Mrs. Julian. Sam Hold er, a colored drayman, was .arrest ed for the crime today and is be ing held for trial. Tho total number of casualties to persons on the railways for the year ending June 30th, 1907, was 122,855, of which 11,839 represent ed the number of persons killed and 111,010 the number injured.
