This year cot ton shows signs of coming back and a considerable acreage has been plant ed. The first cotton bloom of the seas on that the News has heard of was brought to the office Tuesday by Dan Hill who has a farm on the North River road. Mr. Hill has 10 acres in cotton. It is now nearly waist high and looks very good. He did not use any fertilizer at planting but is now giving it a dressing of nitrate of soda. He hopes that the boll weevil will not give him trouble and so far has not been bothered with the weevils.

DUNNAGAN RALEIGH, June 26 -"Shush" is the thought the "old Democrats" seem very anxious to get over to the young Democrats," but the young sters seem just as intent upon not getting the idea at all when it comes to the matter of the repeal of the 18th amendment, at the meet ing of the young and old Democrats to be held at Wrightsville Beach July 8. The older heads are supposedly ad vising against making a political is sue of the repeal proposal, on the ground that it is not a political mat ter, and that there is no need for the party to get tangled up in it. They fear results, and seem intent upon trying to keep the matter from coming to a vote. But from all re ports, that is just what it is going to do come to a vote and, also it seems most likely that the young Democrats will favor repeal over- whemingly. Reports are that several resolu tions will be introduced, with vary ing degrees of condemnation of the prohibition provision of the Consti tution, and all seeking repeal. Why evade the issue? Why straddle? Why duck? Why not meet it face to face and cope with it as it is found? These are questions the young one are asking. They are not bothered so much about political expediency, or the effect such action would have on the party. Fomrer Governor Woodring, of Kansas, now assistant Secretary of War, will fly down to speak, Post master General James H. Farley, Democratic chairman, sending him, since Farley cannot remain in the State, following his Greensboro ap pearance. State Chairman J. Wallace Winborne and Miss Isabel Ferguson, the young Democrats' secretary will also speak at the morning session. Governor Ehringhaus and Senator Robert Reynolds will be the banquet speakers. Senator Reynolds, it is as sumed will open his repeal campaign. Other older speakers are expected to remain quiet on the wet and dry business. Charles E.
