This showed a gain of 7 for Overman

I name a man who combines all the
Qualities of head and heart to nikc- a
fine senator. He followed the f5vt'.m--K
of Lee and Jackson and who was four
times itehot in the terrible battles of
that war. lie was not cr.ly great ud
soldier, but v.s a hiv.ycr he has de-
monstratod In an honorable degi'ee ihat
the profession is gi-eat one. - He is
one of the best in the Stated He has
encouraged and strengthened many
young m6n. He is great not only as
a soldier and' lawyer, but as a Demo
crat. In 1896 when the dark gloom
hung over the State he chosen as the
leader, though it was a forlorn hope,
but as a true soldier he went in and
made the fight. Is there a sense of
gratitude in the Democratic party? I
think there is, and he should receive
the votes of this caucus for,the Senate.
His heart beats in unison ' with the
masses of the, people. He has all the
qualities that go to make up a great
representative of the people.

His name ; is. a- household word where

North Carolina, you can find no man
who has done more to build up the
state. He ahs always contributed
largely toall campaigns, and If his as
pirations have not been erallzed he
has never sulked ln his tent ; but has
kept up his loyal, patriotic course. He
has-been honored as the official. 'head
of; the TJnltedT Confederate' Veterans of
the state, and when he dies no nobler
epitaph could be inscribed "upon his
tomtr tfrttT: "This was the old soldiers'
friend." Let us honor " the "living aj
