Fol lowing the usual course Senators Simmons and Overman were consult ed regarding the appointment and de clared it would give them much pleas ure to see Mr. Justice appointed. Mr. Justice preferred tonight not to discuss whether or not his new position would eliminate him from the senatorial race. Mr. Justice is ex pected to leave for California next week to take up his new duties. Considering it as probable that the new turn takes Mr. Justice out of the race, the limelight is thrown all the morep rominently upon ex-Governor Glenn. Mr. Glenn was in Washing ton a few hours today en route to Pennsylvania on a lecture tour but declined to make a "declaration or intentions." "The question of whether or not Mr. Justice continues in, or drops out of the race, in view of his new posi tion," said Mr. Glenn, "has abso lutely no bearing on my running or not running. I am very glad to hear of Mr. Justice getting the place, and I don't know a better lawyer or a better man. As for myself, I don't know a more pleasant work than that I am already engaged in. "I shall be back from this lecture tour December 16 and will spend tne holidays in North Carolina. About tne first of the year if the people are interested in knowing I shall advise them then what I shall do." Throughout his conversation. Mr. Glenn impressed the correspondent with, the belief that he has decided upon his course of action but possi bly' through an eversion' to long cam paigns is delaying an announcement.

Lake many other shining lights in North Carolina life, Judge Harding got his inspiration from the farm. His mental and physical devel opment, whose foundations were laid on the farm, testify to his good for j tune in oemg a iarmer ooy. 1 1 ne en. u .10noa v Judge Harding first practiced law;Felker today t at ureenvuie, x. c., wnere ne was n j Partnership with his brother under the f a - 1' TT 3! O TTnn,V II,. I cnanotte m unary institute, I Baird being superintendent thereof. ! His experience as a school teacher here extended from 1894 to 1896. As a teacher, imparting knowledge and controlling students, he demonstrated his faculty of even mindedness and ju dicial temperament ' which has won him the position of w-hich any lawyer is proud and to to which honor the greatest lawyers aspire. Judge Harding is strong(, hand some, highely educated; a man of poise and character, and splendidly equip ped for the position to which he has been appointed. He graduated at Chapel Hill in 1894, having taken a strong stand . in his class. He was not ambitious for "honors," but got what is better the thoroughness and mastery of whatever he undertook in school. Ambitious but modest, Judge Harding has risen to the height of his profession in 16 years, an achievement which a life time often fails to accomplish. Judge Harding has always taken an active interest in politics, but of the nature that is unobtrusive and at the same tim most effective in its in fluence over people.
