THINKS NORTH CAROLINA
MAY ELECT REPUBLICANS
R. O. Duneanson .Says .Republirans
Slay WTn in Eighth District.
Washington Post.
"While other States are getting
ready to elect Republicans in place of
Democrat's, North Carolina also is pre
paring to do a bit of changing politi
cally, said R. O. Duncanonson, of that
State, at the Wilhird. "I think North
Carolina after November will have re
presentation on the Republican side of
the House. Former Representative
Britt, in my opinion, will be eleceted w
succeed Zebulon Weaver, who beat nlm
last time, or, rather, was given the
seat, though most person. down that
way always will believe that Mr. Britt
reallv was elected. There is no question
about Mr. Britt's nomination. He will
get the nomination without opposition..
and I believe will surely be elected,
for there is a very strong sentiment
in the district for a change. There
is also a good chance that the Repub
licans may win in the Eighth district,
now represented by Mr Doughton. The
Democrats are fighting among them
selves and the Republicans are in good
shape. ' i
"North Carolina is doing its part to
heln win the war." added Mr. Duncan-
son. "The farmers are preparing to
prtMluee'one of the biggest crops in the
historv of the State. Cotton, of oonr
is the principal product, and this year
it will be fully as large as ever was
raix-ed. ! Corn and other crops also will
be priKluceddn greater quantity.
