"The State law requires all teach

This institute will.be conducted
by Superintendent R. J. Tight, of

It is absolutely necessary that

J. C. L. Harris Resents Butler's Do
mination.
Raleigh, Aug. 4.-ol. J. C. L. Har
ris, who was one of the original
Roosevelt supporters in this State
and went to Chicago and fought for
him from the jump, has taken on' a
considerable degree of disgust at the
threatened domination of Former
Senator Marion Butler in the North
Carolina campaign for Roosevelt.
He- declares that if there is not
something done to stop this Butler
invasion, Roosevelt's new party will
lose 20,000 votes in North Carolina.
He insists that the people in the State
just will not stand for anything that
smacks of Butler domination, tie
believes that if Butler would just
play hands off Roosevelt would roll
up a splendid vite in the state.
and that its independence as a trunk
line would be maintained. The next
annual meeting will be held in' the
early fall.
