them settle the different matters that
jit is to the best interest of the i;ary
to settle ana sen to at once.
Can it be that yt.u think yourself

fact as some are charging that you
are under the control of a few men
that think they are the "It" in box

Please let me hear from you. I

31r dear Sir:
Pardon me for not answering your ,
letter of the 20th, sooner, but f have,
hat! serious sickness in my family
anti was unable to do anything. Ans
wering your second paragraph, I
have never felt myself bigger than
any member of the Republican par
ty and am always willing to do any
thing f can for the best interest of
the party.
1 also beg to advise lhat I am not
under the control or any one or few
men nor any faction of men in the
party.
As clrcirman, 1 am willing to con
verse with yon or any other Republi-h-:nr
for thf-. best interest of the party.
Nov, as to why I have not called the
County Executive Committee togeth
er in regard to the Hickory, post of
fice as I wrote you on Oct. 8th. jus! (
j as soon as some investigations were
j made, I would call the Committee to
Igethei. I was akod by Mr. More
' head in justice to Mr. Miller, not to
j call the Committee together until it

VANCE COUNTY MAN
MAY BE FIRE VICTIM
iormed that, this party was tn your
city last week making these investi
gations, but as yet I have not heard
the result.
Of course, if Miller is placed on
the eligible list, he will get the ap
pointment as he has already been en
dorsed by the county committee, but
if I am informed that he will not be
eligible, I wil immediately call the.,
committee together to make the rec
ommendation. Personally, I do not
care who is made Postmaster at
Hickory, as I take it that you are.
all -my friends anti feel that way
alto. tit- it, but as before stated, Mr.
Morehead, regardless of any -action
the County Committee might take,
will not recommend any one till it is
decided that Miller has failed.
I will be glad to talk the matter
over with you in person at any time.
Wishing you much success and a
