Stuart Chapter of U. D. . will unite with the Veterans in iebrating the 100th Anniversary of the birthday of President Jefferson ' 'vis. The exercises will be held in e Armory beginning at eleven o'- lock, June 3rd. At this time also, ill be read the best essay on the life of Mr. Davis by boy or girl un i tor , sixteen and a reward given. people and 'mid all that is being said, I have yet to hear of one single thing he stands for as dangerous, mad or opposed to progress. Then one thing must, inspire respect and confidence in all Is the fact that at all times we know where to find him. A more ear nest advocate or a more open ad versary never existed. I know and admire the man for this. I am thor oughly convinced that not for the of fice of Governor or any other office, would Will KItchin change his course from what he thought to be right by one lota. He Is a man of principle and makes everything subordinate to a question of principle. "In my opinion the best interests of the State and certainly the best interests demand his nomination for Governor." These words of Mr. Holt will have great weight, as he Is one of the lead ing business men of the State, and no man Is better qualified to judge of what effect Mr. Kltchln's election as Governor would have on business pro gress, as Mr. Holt is one of the most prominent and successful manufactur ers and business men of the State. Such men being for KItchin will have great influence In securing Mr. Kltch ln's nomination. Burlington, N. C, April 27, 1908. Mr. Thomas' Whereabouts Still known. The disappearance of Mr. W. D.
