Creedmoor Section Startled
Saturday Night by
Gun Shots,
As a result of a shooting scrape
Saturday night in the Creedmoor sec
tion, Erwin Beck, a white man, lays at
the point of death in Watts Hospital,
Durham, and DeWitt Rogers, a negro
who did the shooting, is locked up in
the county jail in Oxford, and should
Beck die as a result of the wounds
Rogers will be tried for his life It is
stated that Beck and a crowd of ne
groes met at Bullock's store about six
o'clock Saturday evening and all went
to the home of Tom Hayes, a colored
man, where they engaged in a game
oi cams, it is stated that the
crowd indulged freely in blind tiger
whiskey. Along about mid-night a
row broke out between Berk and
Rogers, in which Beck shot Rogers in
the arm, inflicting a sligh flesh wound.
A scuffle ensued, in which Rogers got
now ot a pistol and shot Beck in the
side, the ball tearing its way through
the abdomen and the death of Beck is
momentarially expected.
lhe two sons of the notorious Cal
Lyon, colored, were captured along
with Rogers and Hayes, and were
released on $100 each, but Tom Hayes,
at whose house the trouble occured,
failed to furnish the required bond of
$1000 and he was brought to Oxford
with Rogers and jailed.
Here we have a combination of one
white man, four negroes, a deck of
card, and blind tiger whiskey. It is
not at all surprising that something
happens when white men and negroes
meet on a common level at the gam
bling table and whet their appetites
with whiskey. The practice is alto
gether too common, and the sooner an
example is made of a few of them the
better.
Fishing Creek School.
On last Friday afternoon the com

Who Is a Democrat?
The ruling of the State Executive
Committee that no voter be permitted
to participate in the Senatorial pri
mary unless he pledge himself to vote
the entire Democratic ticket, from
President down to constable even
hmijih he should have to shut his
eyes and hold his nose to do so is
the most unwise as well as undemo
cratic measure I have ever known
party leaders to inaugurate. If en
forced, it will cost the party many
votes in Granville county; and, if this
was a normal year in politics, would
turn our whole State government over
to the Republicans.
Speaking for myself, as one who has
never voted any thing but the Demo
cratic ticket, and who does not expect
to vote for any one but a Democrat in
the approaching election, I think I
should be permitted to participate in
the Senatorial primary also, without
being asked to do anything that I
think is inconsistent with good citizen
ship or good Democracy
