PRIMARY AT HAND
Bailey Likely to Carry Chatham by
a Vote of Two to One—Little In
terest in Republican Primary.
Saturday will see the settlement
of the long disputed question as to j
the outcome of the Democratic,
primary. The state papers six days
before the primary are guessing.
They say that even the old-time
politicans are at sea, unable to
find grounds upon which to make
-safe estimates.
The Republicans are also to
eboose a senatorial candidate the
same day, voting blue tickets while
the Democrats vote white ones.
However, it seems difficult to dis-1
cover any considerable interest
among Republicans. They seem so |
used to having candidates provided 1
ready-made for them, that they con- ,
cern themselves very little about
voting Saturday. ;
There are four Republican can
didates, Butler, .Tucker, Dorsett, and ,
Pritchard. Chatham’s vote will be
divided chiefly between Dorsett and
Butler, so far as we are able to j
judge. Dorsett is a native of the
county, well known throughout its
borders as “Tip” Dorsett. He would
get a much larger vote in the county
if the people thought he had any
chance at all. His distinction will ;
be that he forced a primary against
the wishes of the Republican bosses j
of the state.
Chatham is typical of the situa-1
tion in the Simmons-Bailey race.
Where one is strong he is very
strong, seems to be the situation
in the greater part -of the state.
In Chatham, Bailey is the strong
,maa, and seems likely to carry the
county by a vote of two to one. In
Cleveland county, the Simmons 1
-manager is said to admit that
Bailey will carry that county two
to one. On the other hand, Mecklen
burg county is likely to give Sim
mons a two to one vote. But the
Bailey majorities seem the more
numerous. On the other, it is pos
sible for Simmons to get such
majorities in the large counties
of Mecklenburg and Forsythe as to
-counterbalance several majorities [
such as Chatham, even with a two
to one vote for Bailey, will give the
latter.
The fight is in deadly earnest
this week. The Simmons forces are
trying to work the negro racket.

If S2O bills were offered for sale at $1 each
it wouldn’t mean much to the man who didn’t
have a DOLLAR.
In other words, it pays to have a little ready
money on deposit in the bank, in order to take
advantage of any profitable deals that may be
offered. Surplus funds in large amounts should
of course be placed in sound investments, but
it pays to keep a snug balance on hand at the
bank all the time.
THE BANK OF GOLDSTON
HUGH WOMBLE, Prei. T. W. GOLDSTON, Cashier
GOLDSTON, N. C.
have registered as Democrats, and
the Simmons forces are trying to j
make the impression throughout the 1
state that they were registered
through the influence of Bailey
supporters. However, it turned out
that one batch was registered under I
the direction of a negro employed !
in Secretary of State Hartness’s j
office, and that officer is one of j
Simmons’ rankest supporters. Bailey •
is insisting that po Republicans, j
white or black, be allowed to vote '
fin the Democratic primary. In ;
short, the Simmons forces realize !
that they have the fight of their j
lives on their hands and are catch
ing at every straw in sight to save
their candidate from a sinking ;
under the Democratic indignation at
Senator Simmons’ part in foisting
' Hoover and his “prosperity” upon
i the country.
j Practically all the county can
didates were in Pittsboro Monday,
| but there are so few real contests
in the county that the interest is
chiefly centered in the senatorial
fight.
ERROR CORRECTED
How Mistakes May Occur in the
Best Regulated Print Shop
<♦>
It is easy for some serious errors
•to be made in printing a paper.
; For instance, last week we wrote
. that “Mr. Geo. H. Brooks, present
j coroner, has filed as the Democratic
! candidate and Dr. Chapin as the
Republican candidate for coroner”.
You will notice that “as the” occurs
twice. Suppose the printer to have
printed the first “as the” and when
he glances back at the copy his
eyes fall on the second “as the” and
when he begins with the next word,
making just what appeared last
week, “Mr. Geo. H. Brooks, present
coroner, has filed as the Republican
candidate”. But sometimes a line
of the solid type falls out in making
up the paper and is not discovered,
and in the case cited above, it just
so happened that what was omitted
would probably have made an exact
line. Accordingly, there were two
ways in which the error might have
l been made. Os course, everybody
knows Mr. Brooks is a Democrat,
but this correction is due him and
the explanation will help the readers
to account for an occasional mix-up
in not only this paper but in others.
We have had the former kind of
error to happen often, and some-
THE CHATHAM RECOUP. HTTSBORO, N. C.
times it makes an embarrassing
j situation. The same word occuring
I twice in the same line of copy is
liable to cause the printer to skip
from the one to the other.
In the hurry of making up the
J forms for the paper, you will some
i times notice the wrong head over
I an article. The heads are usually
j set in a different type and then
i placed over the article, and then
! mistakes occur. Last week something
like that caused a subhead line to
j be thrown into the article about
| the Rock Spring Reunion—a line
j that belonged to another aritcle.
' A print shop is a busy place just
j before going to press. That fact
causes “Shaves” to appear as
t “Saves” in the Pittsboro Barber
Shop adv. The “Shaves line was
, sent in after the rest of the ad
! vertisement was in type, and had to
be inserted at the last minute. So
don’t ask when is the “latest” you
can get something in the paper—get;
it ready as early as possible. A
j week before hand will not hurt—
I it will keep; but while a week nor
three days is not necessary, don’t
wait till the last minute. One man
! can get his corn ground at the mill
at sunset, but if all wait till the
“latest” time he can get it ground,
the most of them would spend part
of the night with the miller or
have to come back the next day.

1. Plan now for a good crop of
strawberries next spring. Bar off
the old bed to a narrow row of
plants and keep well cultivated on
both sides of the row so that run
ner plants may take root as they
form. This will give a good supply
of strong new plants for next year’s
fruiting. Plants formed during July
and August will product twice as
much fruit next spring as those
formed during September and Octo
ber.
2. Now is the time to start
sweet potatoes from vine cuttings.
Vine cuttings are usually free from
disease and therefore offer one
means of producing a clean crop.
! Higher yields of Number 1 potatoes
will be* secured if the plants are
set as close as 12 inches apart on a
ridge. On soils of average fertility,

|« _J
use 800 to 1000 pounds of 8-4-8
(P-N-K) fertilizer per acre.
3. Set tomato plants for the
late summer crop. Plants set at this
time should have their roots placed
deep in order to reach the moist
layers ofsoil. If the plants are tall
and leggy, lay them horizontally in
the bottom of a deep furrow and
cover all but the top 2 or 3 inches
of the plant. Sow seed now for the
fall crop. In the mountain sections
early-maturing varieties should be
planted if a crop it to be had be
fore frost.
4. Plant cabbage and collards
for the fall and winter crop. Sow
the seed in a partially shaded bed
and well watered until the young
plants are established. In trans
planting, (especially during hot
weather, the plants should be lifted
with as much soil adhering to the
roots as possible. Lift them with a
spading fork or shovel and add
water at the time of setting if the
soil is, dry.
5. Keep up the supply of sweet
corn by making successive plant
ings' every three or four weeks.
Early-maturing varieties may be
planted as late as ten weeks before
the usual date of killing frost with
fair assurance of a crop. Main-crop
varieties should be given at least
three months in which to mature.
As soon as the plants are well esta
blished,- hurry them along by side
dressing with a fertilizer high in
nitrogen.
6. Plant bush beans every three
weeks in order to have a constant
supply of fresh, tender, “snaps”.
Start the fight against the bean
beetle early by spraying with mag
nesium arsenate as soon as adult
beetles are found on the plants.
7. Spray cantaloupes, cucum
bers, and watermelons with Bor
deaux in order to control leaf
blights. The best insurance is to
keep the vines covered with the
spray material, although two or
three applications will give reason
able control in an average season.
8. Go over the watermelon
patch every two weeks and remove
all misshapen melons while they are
young. This will allow the strength
of the vines to be used for the pro
duction of the remaining melons. If
you would have the very largest
specimens, leave only one melon
per. vine.
A Few WhittlingV Off

—<e> —
It won’t keep up forever—this
session of Congress. There are a
few optimistic souls who predict
adjournment before the end of
June. If so, thus endeth, if it end
eth, a long drawn out affair and
one of the strangest legislative con
claves of record in this country.
* . * * ..
Lest we forget, there is, of
course, the Naval treaty, which two
of our leading admirals say does
not achieve parity. And ;if• we
should achieve parity the cost would
be something in excess of $375,-
000,000. All of which leads us to
speculate upon what effect these
things will have in the November
! elections. Will the candidates con
tinue to get away with time' worn
platitudes and hypocritical prom
ises? Or has the new era of educa
tion advanced the individual mind
to a state where these things will
be recognized and dealth with?
* % ❖
There are many rumblings in the
Republican party against the presi
dent. Talk that he is a one-termer
—that the crumbling of the Re
publican majority in the senate may
be attributed to his lack of leader
ship and unwillingness to advise
with party leaders. Some say that
he was oversold to the nation; oth
ers that he is not big enough for
the job. Then, again, there is the
theory that in most of his previous
experience he had absolute authority
to do the 'job as he saw fit; that
his subordinates had to go down the
line for whim when he cracked the
whip—even when they didn’t like it.
* * *
One thing is true. Hoover has
aged materially. He appears to be
ten years older than when he was
inaugurated. Deep lines are in his
face. When he receives Congres
sional delegations, he stands and
twists nervously and his voice
most inaudible. Sometimes they
leave uncertain as to whether he
said yes or no.
* * ❖
Meanwhile the Democrats and
Progressives cling belligerently to
their coalition. In fact, the first
lasting demonstration of their pow
er was in rejection of Judge Park
er’s nomination for the Supreme
Court. Rumor has it that Senator
Watson could have had two more
votes for Parker but he didn’t want
them. Certainly the rejection of
Parker was not personal, if one
carefully examines his record. No
cleaner record and no finer personal
life in comparison with his oppor
tunities was ever exemplified by any
American judge. The rejection of
Parker was a slap at Hoover.

New Jersey has monopolized the
front pages of the press since last
week because it is reported that
Ambassador Dwight W. Morrow is
to be the Republican candidate of
the east for president in 1932. The
entry of Franklin Fort into the race
is viewed as an attempt to forestall
any such consequence. Former Sen
ator Joseph Frelinghuysen is damp.
Morrow is wet. If Representative
Fort obtains all the drys and the
other two candidates split the wets,
the eastern financial interests will
be compelled to make new plans.

In the Democratic camp there is
still talk of Owen D. Young. He
has resigned some of his connections
which might have detracted from
his candidacy because of his re
'ations with moneyed interests. He
is personally popular with all who
Knew him. He is young and mag
netic of manner. In the event he
ran, his running mate might prove
to be Senator Dill of Washington,
who would undoubtedly prove a
vote winner among the independents
and disgruntled progressives of the
Northwest. If Hoover ran against
bhat ticket, the South would be safe
for democracy and will continue to
be so as. long as the visit of Mrs.
Oscar DePriest lives in the memory
of this generation.

The east, northwest and south
can elect anybody. Much of the
Hoover patronage has gone to
Minnesota, California and the mid
dle west. Walter Brown, .personal
friend of most of the “Ohio gang”
is regarded as the likely successor
to vice presklent Curtis. His con
duct of the office of Post-Master
General convinces that he does not
expect the opportunity to get by
without a struggle.
