El
County politics was lost sight of in
Winston-Salem, today. ''Even the
aspirants for office discussed little
else but the Republican State conven

predicting lively times, If not a battle

why he expected turmoil by asking:
"If trouble was- not expected why did
they send the secretary of war to the
scene of action?"
One who heard Secretary Taft last
night tells The Sentinel that it was
a masterly speech the effort of a
statesman. He was heard by a great
crowd. While speaking some of the
spectators became nolby, showing dls-l
respect to the secretary. Of course
this is charged up to the followers of
Blackburn.
