The meeting at Pilot Hill Baptist Church which has been in progress for several days, closed last night after a very successful meeting. There were about thirty accessions to the church. Rev. Fred N.

Adams, of Benson, Johnston County, mistreated and drove from the house the mother and babe apart are the allegations set up in a petition presented before Jus tice W. R.

"-Justice Allen Issued the writ and made it re turnable before Judge Jas .L. Webb at Goldsboro, immediately. Mr. Barbour came to Raleigh yes terday on his mission. Mrs. Adams asserts in her petition that this was not the first time she had been badly treated by a brutal husband, and that on former occasions he had mistreat ed her. On the occasion of which the petition deals, she alleges that recommended and endorsed for State Chairman, Hon. Marlon Butler for National Committeeman and Hon. Theodore Roosevelt for President. The people in this county are now getting a full dose of Democratic mismanagement. The big increase in taxes, jury packing and our rotten road system, will do them up next fall. Yours truly, L. B. P.

C. J. BRASWELL. More Untrue Charges Answered. Thinks th,e "Enterprise Road" Needs Aid of County Physician. Mr. R. L. Powell, of Swift Creek Township, says the "Enterprise road" the authorities have run through his township takes so many turns that he thinks the Wake County Commis sioners should send the county phy sicians out there and operate on the road as it has the appendicitis where it doubles around on Mr. Wilson's place. Mr. Powell thinks as they are paying other bills of the county phy sician, that they might spend this much on Swift Creek. Mr. Scarborough shows charges made by the bolters are without foundation and further shows that the bolters used Democrats in trying to defeat the present county organ ization. To the Editor: If you will permit me space in your valuable paper, I would just speak a few words to the Republicans of Wake County in re gard to the would-be fight now pend ind. Fellow Republicans, the fight has narrowed down to one of two things, viz: do we want to return to the old order of things or do we wish to keep up the good work the party is doing by holding on to our present State and county organization. Numerous and varied are the accusations brought against our county chairman Mecklenburg Divides Vote. At the Republican Convention, held in Mecklenburg County, eight of the delegates were instructed for Mr. Taft and sixteen delegates instructed for Mr. Roosevelt. THE HOOKWORM DISPENSARIES. Examinations Will be Made and Treatment Given at Four Differ ent Points in Wake County The Progress of the Campaign. At last Wake County is to have the campaign for the eradication of hookworm disease. Dr. C. L. Pridgen, of the State Board of Health, assisted by Mrs. Pridgen, will be in charge of this work and will establish dispensaries at five different points in the county which are given below. Hookworm disease has been found very prevailent in North Carolina, and its ravages among the rural pop ulation are beyond words to describe. In the eastern portion of the State where most of the work has been done up to this time, eighty thousand and fellow workers by the crowd that I PePle have been examined and over sixty tnousana or inese nave oeeu WAKE COUNTY REPUBLICAN CONVENTION. Will Be Held in Raleigh Tuesday April 23 Primaries on Saturday the 20th. At a meeting of the Republican Executive Committee of Wake Coun ty, held in Raleigh on the 6th day of April, 1912, it was ordered that a County Convention of the Republi cans of Wake County be held in Ral eigh on Tuesday, April 23rd, in the court-house, at 12 o'clock noon, for the purpose of selecting delegates to the State and District Conventions, to nominate candidates for the" Legisla ture to be voted upon in the June primary, and to determine the elec tion of the County Chairman for the next tw oyears. It is further ordered that the pri maries in the various precincts in the county be held on Saturday, April 20th, to select delegates to said Coun ty Convention, the primaries in Ral eigh Township to he held at 8 o'clock P. m. Respectfully, L. F. BUTLER, Chairman. JOHN W. HARDEN, Secretary. wishes to regain control of our party government to use it for their own personal advantages. By chance I was handed one of Mr. Andrew's let ters that was supposed to be such a shrewd political move? I read the letter carefully and find it to be ab slutely without any foundation upon which to stand. He claims his tight to govern our party in Wake County upon the ground that the last State Convention recognized him as a dele gate, even though he was a rump del egate, never telling you that the cre dential committee was a packed one, full of Duncan men. Then I would like to ask why is he serving a mas ter that could only give him six votes when they had it in their power to give him all? The one thing in par ticular in his letter I wish to dispute is his reference to our county chair man's own precinct. His exact words are: "Of those present in this" pre cinct delegation in the County Con vention a decided majority were against your faction (the names could be given, but they are well known to you.) Yet the vote of that precinct was erroneousljrgiven in and recorded in favor of your faction." Now, Mr. Andrews, and even Wil lis Briggs know this to be absolute ly false. I was living in this pre cinct at that time and know the con ditions that existed. There was a gentleman that lived at the Pilot Mill by the name of AE. Oglesby, a Dem ocrat; and a frequent contributor to The Evening Times, fighting for what is known as the Buck Jones wing of theDemocratic party. Willis Briggs sent Mr. Oglesby to our primary with a type list of delegates that Mr. Oglesby said Mr. Briggs wanted to come to the County Convention. Mr. Oglesby made the above statement in the presence of myself and several others, so you see the method they used should be beneath the notice of our Republicans in the county. We gave them two delegates or 2-7 of a rvote and then instructed them, the men being J. J. Wilson and J. J. Phil lips, the latter to whom they had promised a post-office, works at Pilot Mills. Bill Brown, at the Ral eigh office, admitting such. Then why does Mr. Andrews want to be county chairman?"' Is it so he can help land found to be infected .and have been treated with marvelous results. The authorities of a number of counties where the work has been done real izing what it has meant for their people have requested the Board to have additional work done there for which they are willing to appropriate funds, but this has been refused un til every county in the State can have its chance. It has been by far the most popular health work ever attempted and the masses of the people have been en thusiastic and have gone out in large crowds to the dispensaries seeking examination and treatment. In New Hanover County four thou sand people were examined, over four thousand were examined in Beaufort County, five thousand were examined in Pender, six thousand in Columbus and nearly eight thousand in Onslow County, etc. Over-half of all those examined were found infected and were given treatment by Dr. Pridgen. In one place some of the more se verely infected cases dropped by the roadside and were picked up by oth ers and brought to the dispensary for treatment, and one gentleman ob serving such incidents, remarked that he had not seen or heard of any thing like it since reading of the days of GaHlee. The county of Wake and the State Board of Health having investigated this work, and having the good of the masses at heart, have arranged to bring these dispensaries almost to the doors of the citizens of Wake County so that they may have exami nation and treatment free of any cost. It then becomes the duty of every good citizen while these dispensaries are' here to have himself and family examined because only by examina tion with the microscope can it be positively found whether there is or is not Infection. It has been found that the greater number of cases are obtained through ground itch, dew poison, etc., but It has also been de termined that a large number of cases are infected through foods such as tomatoes, lettuce, celery, radishes, cabbage, strawberries, and fruits. No class, condition or race is im- IIAXV R1XXIOS. Tom Moxley Gta Two Year for Kill ing Mitchell Wil.n ; Conett Broth ers to Serve 10 Years for Murder. Winston-Salem, N. C. April in Alleghany court.
