Such is the choice of a ma

ers of Yadkin County express
ed through their lelegates in
convention Monday in the
Court House. The conven
tion was called to order at 2:45
P. M. by Chairman J. A. Lo
gs rq with W. K. Rutledge,
Secretary. On motion this
temporary organization was
made permanent.
The first thing taken up
was the nomination of a can
didate for the House of Rep
resentatives, Three candi
dates were placed in nomina
tion, these being A. S. Speer,
J. A. Gray and Wade Reavis,
Mr. Reavis received 44 votes
on the first ballot and was de
clared the nominee. W* H.
G. Wooten was nominated by
acclimation for Register of
Deed.?. Six ballots were re
quired to select .a candidate
for Sheriff, Mr, Poindexter
winning’ by a small majority,
Mr. Fletcher thanked Ms
friends for their support and
withdrew Ms name after the
third ballot, i
Selecting a <ca«ndidate for
Treasurer was a stall harder1
probe 1 cm as .there were nine
men seeking this place. On
the eleventh ballot J. H. Dob
bins recaeved 37 votes4 one
more than was required to
nominate, and that part of it
was settled.
By this time the delegates
were getting tired and the re
maining part of the ticket was
made up in a hurry.
The court house was crowd
ed and j amed long before the
chairman called the conven
tion to order, not even stand
ing room being available.
The convention was har
monious throughout thq entire
proceedings and everybody
was appearantly satisfied with
the ticket as selected, which
is regarded as a strong one
composed of some of the best
citizens of Yadkin County.
Seventeen delegates were
elected, two from each town
ship, to attend the State Con
gressional aud Senatorial Con
ventions, and they were sent
jiniustructed.

Boonville Boy Saved At
Point Of Death
St. Louis Mo., July 29.—
Although he realized that his
own body would receive the
full voltage from a high ten
sion wire carrying 650 volts
of electricity, Charles Bizart
yesterday climbed to the lop
of a tali ladder and rescued
Thomas C. Angell, of 1941
Wright street, St. Louis, (for*
merly of Boonville, N, C.) who
had come in contact with the
wire and received the full vol
tage. Both men finally were
rescued from their perilous
position, but had narrow es-1
capes from death. Angell is j
the most seriously injured, i
having been, shocked almost
to death, and injured when he
fell 20 feet to the ground, and •
was taken to St. Elizabeth’s
hospital „in an ambulance,
where he is reported improv
ing slowly.
County Sunday School Con
vention
The Yadkin County Sun
day School Convention will be
held this year at Asbury M.
E. church August 17 and 18,
The features of the conven
tion will be the annual address
by Prof, W. D. Martin of
East Bend, on Saturday at
2 o’clock, and the annual ser
mon to be delivered by Rev,
R. P, Coram on Sunday7 morn
ing at 11 o’clock. The ad
dress of welcome will be made
by Mr. A. D. Gentry and the
response by Profi A. ], Martin
The program has many other
interesting features.
Heretofore the Sunday
Schools in different sections of
of the county have been some
what lax in sending delegates
to the county conventions.
We are requested to insist
that every Sunday School
send delegates, etc. This is
an annual occasion of much
more importance than is gen
erally imagined.

Taft In November
Many a Democrat has been
elected in July, only to be bur
ed under an avalanche of votes
of votes in November. Mr,
Taft’s prospects are now at
their lowest ebb. First driven
by treachery and shameful
abuse to the extreme of un
dignified personal defenses,
then fought with unexampled
bitterness in his contest for
a .deserved renomination, and
now confronting not only an
open detachment from his own
ranks, but also a most resource
ful and daring Democratic op
ponent, his record of accom
plishments s upon which he
must ultimately rely is for the
moment eclipsed. But the
fact that few presidents have
rendered more valuable service
under trying conditions re
mains. Mr. Taft’s fidelity,
conscientious endeavors, his
singleness of unselfish purpose
his purity of intent, his noble
achievements, are forgotten
only for the time. They will
be recalled with gratitude and
emphasized with effect.—
