It is this very fact that makes him a better man for con gressman than Mr. Gudger. The latter has had the place be fore and in going back to Wash ington would resume his old position with the fire and vigor of his first victory practically burnt out We could expect little in the way of positive legis lation from him. Mr. Cocke, going into congress full of the fire and enthusiasm of his vic torious realization of the ambi tion of a life, will make his power felt. A strong man come into his own, exerting his strength in the cause of his constituents that will be William J. Cocke on the floor of the house. In the point of ability Mr. Cocke is probably the superior of his opponent. His career has been more spectacular, and has shown more strength and in dividuality than has that of Mr. Gudger. As a speaker he cer tainly has the advantage of Mr. Gudger, being one of the strong est and most forceful talkers in Western North Carolina. And this district needs a man in con gress who can talk. The voters of Macon county little by little, to make them more familiar with the standard melo dies. Thus far, "Home, Sweet Home" and "My Old Kentucky Home" have been learned.
