For Vice-President: JAMES S. SHERMAN, of New York. MOCKS VILLE, N. C, JULY 9, 1908. It is now pretty general talk and therewould be no surprise if Sec retary Taft should carry North Carolina, Tennessee and Kentncky. Exchange. The Democrats of Western North Carolina think they have been im posed upon by the Eastern Demo crats, and they mean to vote as they please this fall. Owing to the fact that the Re publicans want to hold their con vention in a prohibition town, it will be necessary for us to meet in Greensboro instead of Charlotte. J. J. Britt, Dr. Cyrus Thomp son or A. A. Whitener would be safe mes to put at "the head of the Eepublican State ticket. Either of these gentlemen would make a good governor. That's a queer report coming from Charlotte that plenty of cold drinks including beer and whiskey punches could be had, but that ice water was not to be had for love or money . Must have been a joke, still an old rounder who sobered up and quit months ago said he had to leave and come home to keep from getting drunk. Greens boro Record. Rotation in office cuts no figure with State Democracy. They grow gray down about Raleigh holding office and much of the Democratic State ticket is simply a re-nomination while the many new aspirants for these plums can continue to Buch their thumbs. The head of the ticket is himself a perpetual office holder and seeker and quite a contrast to Mr Craig, the Ashe ville aspirant, or the farmer and soldier, Hon. Ashley Home. Ex change. . - c .-. "Most dangerous man in the State." His record in Congress nnwor thy.,f Winston Daily Journal. This is Democratic authority and refers to Congressman W. W. Kitch in, the Democratic candidate for Governor. The Charlotte Obser yer, Newbern Sun, Lexington Dis patch and other papers have ex pressed criticism about as severe. These journals will have to eat a good deal'of "crow" orMr. Kitch inwill have much trouble to con tend with in his own political fam ily. The Charlotte Observer - has already begun its "crow feast.' Pass around the dish. Union Re publican. , CHANCES IN THE EIGHTH. We submit herewith what one of the leading Democratic dailies of Western North Carolina has to say concerning the Democratic Con gressional nominee of this district, and of his chances for re election. Listen to the Asheville Citizen: "congressman Dick ilack ett, debonair egotist, the man who fousrht against the Anna- - o ; lachain bill and Locke Craig, is running for - Congres3. He - will never see Washington a 4 gain as a legislator, for his de feat is written now in burning letters" And we shall hot feel .. deeply grieved thereat. - It is now up to the News and Observer to have about seventeen different kinds of fits and try to reaa ine- Asnevnie luitizen out of , truth wheu it gave utterance to :. the foregoing. ; .cj- - . , J: Patterson Defeats Carmack. Tennessee democrats have been having a fight for governor that makes the North Carolina row look tame. They got to the shoot ing point over there and at least one man was shot down in an al tercation about the candidates. Ex-Senator Carmack was de feated Saturday in the primaries by Governor Patterson by- 9,000 votes. The fight is interesting be cause Carmack stood for state pro hibition and Patterson for local option. Tennessee is dry in the large cities, and no doubt the wet places beat Carmack. Patterson says, however, if the democratic platform calls for state prohibition, which means only that about four wet cities be dried up, he will sign the bill. Carmack is one of the biggest men in the south. He was defeated by Bob Taylor and his fiddle, for senator, but his prestige as a brilliant statesman is tin dimmed. Republican Activity. Charlotte Chronicle, (Dem.) Thi Republicans are confidently figuring on making great gains in North Carolina in the November election and are laying plans to that end. We do not believe there is a chance for them to carry North Carolina, but that they will cut down the normal Democratics ma jority is a proposition it were fool ish to deny. There are two Demo cratic Congressmen whose re-election is admitted to be in doubt and the work of organizing the Repbli can forces is in progress. . It is based on plans to capture as much of the disaffected Democratic vote as possible. The organization of the Republican forces in the wes tern section will be particularly strong. Buncombe county is to be organized tomorrow. As to the plans, an Asheville dispatch to The Industrial News says: "It is the intention of the club to have Secretary Taft, the Republican can didate for the presidency, to speak here during the campaign, or should he be unable to come, they will secure other very prominent Republicans to speak here. A well known Republican said to day that while the Republicans didloot have as much money as . they did when they carried the county and this congressional district in 1896, yet the local conditions were far more favorable for victory than they were at that time." In this activity on the part of the Republi cans, the Democrats may see, if they will a hard and stubborn cam paign ahead of them. Just Exactly Right.

McGee, of the Chestnut Hill section of Salisbury, killed his half-sister, Aurora, aged 23, early Saturday morning in a scuffle over a shotgun which they thought was not loaded. No one was present save the two. The gun went off accidentally and the load tore a hole clear through the girlV head, entering between the eyes. The coroner's verdict was that she was killed by her brother who was pro nounced; guilty of carelessly and recklessly handling the firearm. The awful occurrance shocked the city. - . . Britt for Senate. J. J. Britt, one ot the ablest re publicans in the state, was nomin ated for the state senate in Bun combe county last week. Thomas S.
