The New Bern Journal In speaking of this remarkable feat In the air kfca the following to aay: During the four days that exhibitions with tie aeroplane* jrtre given 1 la N.w Bern, t n flights were madel by aviator Eugene Heth. and each ' one of these was a success, in fact 1 'the aeroplane flights were the drawing feature of the occasion, and thousands went out to see these. The machine used Is of the Wright passenger carrying type and attracted the attention of all. There were some who had their doubts at first in regard to the aeroplane making flights on account of the fact that a number of socalled aviators bad 'recently visited thiB section, and fail ad to make good. However, they were agreeably disappointed. Despite the fact that the grounds at whlcfo the flying was done wore not favorable for aviation, each and evory tfme that the machine went up-? and it went up on schedule time each day?the flight was perfect. Not only did Aviator Eugene Heth tdo some "straight" flying, bn^ he also pulled off a number of stuhts 'Chat thrilled the spectators. The I race each day with the automobile ! was-a real-sensation while the bomb throwing from the aeroplane, hlgli in the air was a real feature. Maklu,flguro eights, and (he spiral glide was also an easy matter to him, and taking all into consideration, the exhibition equalled those seen at the [ large aviation" meets in the North.

NYMOUSLL THE DAILY * ANNOUNCE To the Democratic Voters of Beau- tl fort County: B During the past few weeka I hare d< been considering Dreaming a can- at dictate tor RepreeentattTe from Beau tl fort county In the next General Ae- p, aembly. Befbre reaching any dedii- . Ion I consulted with a number of people from different Rectione of'm the oounty and asked if there was any other candidate for the position. J Among those oonaulted was the chtlr ^ man of the County Bxecutlve Committee. I was Informed by all that * they knew of no other candidate. The county chairman, Mr. Warren, " told mv-that certain parties from or near Aurora had suggested that there i would probably be a candidate from ' that section. I told him that 1 j would not care to get into any fight H 'for the place as the pay was not suf- " Qclent to Justify tt. ..He agreed to ascertain if possible It there W6dld J, be a candidate and advise me. True to his promise he telephoned dowu there and was told that Mr. H. C. Jj] Carter had been aproacbed and re- ' quested to become a candidate. He j then went to Bee Mr. Carter and was i informed that there had been several *"j requests made and 4dm* letters fe- ! Ll?i kv U. ,.M? ?V.I 1.-. 11 accept the nomination, bat he had not decided what he would do. Ldt- ? er I went to see Mr. Carter and wae c) told practically the same thing, and b he stated further that lie would give n them a definite answer last week. Shortly after It became known ^ that I would probably be an aspirant R for the nomination rumors of. dla- j content and diasatlsfaetion came to ^ my ears and ebme of my friends were itagornled that there would be a bit- ^ ter fight If I should run. I began to Investigate to learn the source of, c the reports aiid obtained Information . which satisfied me as to where they oilglnated find the etuae. which I v w|tt at.cao., further on l?JW?.rU- ? I waited until the week was out and Mr. Carter not having made* any announcement of his candidacy and being informed that lie would not, .1 therefore sought other advice j and the Information received was such as to Justify me in the belief ttfat there would be no other candidate. I then told a number of people that I would be a candidate. As soon as this report was on the street It ereated a stir In oertaln quarters and pressure was brought to bear to keep me troll gbing before l)ie people to ask their support fbr the nomination to fill a position of great responsibility and high honor. Had my frineds advised against I ft the matter wnulll hivo Wn pcd, but tt was hot my friends but t those who professedly were friend- ( ly toward me when in my presenco j but at every opportsnity were knif- x ing me in the back, not because of /( ' any personal wrong or injury I had f done them but because I was not bne of their clan. I have consistent * 4y refused to take a stand with, any 1 faction or in any factional fight, J therefore some of them are. afraid 1 to bare me go to the legislature; afraid that 1 will refuse to put through some pet legislation which 1 they wish to secure at the nest see- ( Bion. . The efforts of the opposition ' reached a climax on Tuesday when , upon going to the Postofflce I found $ letter in my bos addressed "Jim Mayo" which to substance was as follower "Jim you had better look . out. Several folks around town and in Belbaven and Aurora are laying , for you to come out for office." It i practically charged that 1 had set ' the Morton building on fire when i my plant was destroyed In July, ' 1911, with a loss to'me of more than $5,000. The writer of this letter knows or could have known that 1 was not in Washington the night .of the fire, therefore I have no fear uf any charges they may prefer. The letter also threatened publication of a complete history of my private life from the cradle to the prosent time. Hie last paragraph of the letter was aa follows: "They are having it all printed now and have got a mailing Ust of every voter in the county." It was signed. "FT09 Friend." I will leave It for our readers to say whether or not such a letter was written by a friend.

The militia went to several fillflei to protect the union miners j and there wavjight between them aad the scabs and the militia murdered men, women, and children numbering in the hundreds. It was surely something terrible to see the houses they burned after they killed all of the people. We have 800 men in camp and are going to recruit up to 1,000 at an early date. Our regiment has the best record of any other outfit. We are surely having some delightful weather here It Is warm and nice.
