State Instructs Convention Vote For New Yorker Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt To Get North Carolina's Vote For President. \ -— Harmonious Meet Mild Fight Comes Up Over Wet i Plank In Platform And The Dry Forces Win Out. The North Carolina state Demo cratic convention met last Thursday in Raleigh in a six hour session, and in one of the most harmonious meet ings in its history. The convention named its delegates to the national convention instructed them to vote for the nomination of Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt for Presi dent, chose the party’s electors, adopt ed (a platform and adjourned. 1?he only semblance of a fight was over the party’s platform. Nine of the eleven members favored the adop tion of the platform as written, while two dissented* from the “dry” plank. The matter w«$ brought before the convention floor and the-“dry” plank' adopted by a vote, of lj762 to *11. Randolph’s 37 Convention votes wfei;e jjfast in dtsror of . the .prohibition plank. This plank liadoCMdr the Several speeches wedt made beforte '“the convention, including those by Josephus Daniels and Josiah W. Bailey, and the keynote speech by George /Freemap, of Wayne county. The Democratic record in the state from Aycock to the present was com mended find indorsed by the speakers and Also by the platform adopted. Borah Bolts Hoover Declaring Platform Woefully Inadequate And Unresponsive To The Ne cessities And Demands Of People Of Country. Senator William E. Borah, of Ida ho, liberal Republican and also a dry, who played a great part in turning North Carolina and Tennessee into the Hoover column in 1928, an nounced in a speech in the Senate Monday that he would not support Mr. Hoover for re-election. The Ida ho Senator condemned the wet plank in the Republican national platform and declared the entire platform to be “wholly inadequate and wholly unresponsive to the necessities and demands of the people.” The platform adopted by his party is so meaningless, declared Senator Borah, that long before October all of it will be scrapped except that about liquor and the Republicans will be waging a battle for their politi cal lives with no thought to the na tional declaration. The liquor plank, Mr. Borah said, was adopted for mat ters of political expediency, meaning that the party could blow wet where necessary and dry where it would be effective. Not even the great Re publican newspapers, the Senator de clared, had one word of praise for the platform adopted by the Repub lican national convention.

Obtains Valuable Old Papers While On Southern Trip Old Notes, Bonds, Life Insur ance Policies, Etc., Dating Back As Far As 1864. V. f John Austin, who has recently re turned from a two months’ stay in New Orleans and the flood ar^as in %tc.,T s4ghe of them dating -is far back as 1864, which he had collected during his sojourn in Louisiana. A dozen issues of “Life” dated 3894 were also displayed by Mr. Austin, who had been convinced that the 1890’s must have been naughty but nice years judging by the jokes in that humorous magazine, also forced this writer to the rollicking conclus ion that the older generation pos sessed a sense of humor no whit less keen than that of present-day youth “Life,” even in 1894 had lived many entertaining years, but that wise cracking journal continues today to live a life buoyed by a richness of past experience. The jokes in the 3894 issues grew funnier the farther back one read until one finally ar rived at the conclusion that the grandfathers of the present genera tion must have laughed themselves into early graves about 1865. An other conclusion was drawn from the reading of those 1894 issues: if one wants to find the original source of contemporary jokes, one should turn back to the 1890’s. The puns pulled nowadays have grown no uncertain whiskers. The advertisements in the old is sues of “Life” also interest one—es pecially the advertisements for cer tain intoxicating beverages which were “as sparkling as the dew.” And one gets a great kick out of the ad vertisements for the “bicycle built for two.” Mr. Austin plans to keep his old issues of the magazine, believing they will attain a high value within a few more years.

Convention Is Dull As little Enthusiasm Manifest ed At Gathering As There Is In Business. The Republican national conven tion, meeting in Chicago, Ills., last week, on Thursday concluded its busi ness by renominating President Her bert Hoover and Vice President Charles W ^Curtis to succeed them selves. The only sizeable demonstra tion during the entire convention was staged when Mr. Hoover was renamed to succeed himself. The convention adopted a plank on •prohibition which means in substance that Republican congressmen are in structed to vote for the submission to the several state legislatures a new, or 20th amendment, which would nullify the 18th amendment by per mitting each state to decide whether it would be wet or dry. This plank was thrown out as a catch for the vote of the big eastern wet states, and also as a sop for the drys. The North Carolina delegation, with the exception of three dele gates were for a dry plank, and Jake Newell, candidate for United States Senator on the Republican ticket in North Carolina, declared he would in his campaign stand for prohibition regardless of the plank in the national platform calling for resubmission of the matter. The Hoover organization held the center of the Republican stage from start to finish. After Charles G. Dawes refused flatly to be consider ed for the Vice Presidential nomina tion, and it became known that Mr. Hoover desired Curtis to run again, all opposition to the Vice President facled away and his nomination went over with a bang. The enthusiasm usual to national Republican conventions was lacking last week in Chicago, the conclave be ing about as droll and dull as the business situation in the country.

B. Ehringhaus, one of the two candidates for Democratic nomination for Governor in the sec ond primary, predicts his candidate will win in the primary on July 2 by 100,000 majority. In discussing the second primary Major McLendon says: “We are gratified to find that the Ehringhaus organization - is not only intact throughout the state, but that our supporters are even more enthu siastic than they were in the first primary. “The sentiment for Mr. Ehringhaus is increasing daily,” the major con tinued “We confidently believe Mr. Ehringhaus will carry a number of eastern counties in which Mr. Foun tain led the ticket in the first pri mary. We are satisfied with the sit uation in the piedmont and the west. “Baked upon an estimated vote of approximately 325,000, we believe that Mr. Ehringhaus’ majority in the second primary will be close to 100, 000. “We find much sentiment through out the state against holding a sec ond gubernatorial primary in view of the very targe plurality Mr. Ehring haus had in the first. “We also find that Mr. Fountain, who has found it necessary to ac cept the state platform even though is entirely inconsistent with his utterances in the first, primary, has lost much of his own following by his long delay and 11th hour an nouncement that ho would request a second primary." - ■ - --- ' j---*' Garden At County Hum ' One Of County’s Finest Mrs. L M.
