J -BtGrimes, .of Grimesland,
nominating Col. Cuningham said:
"I wish to nominate as chairman
of the hoard a progressive, enterprise
ing and successful business man a
gentleman oT charactertalent ener
gy and brains. Pie is" closely identi
fied with the agricultural interests
of North Carolina, a typical South-
ern planter and one of the' largest
tooacco growers 11; the, world. He
is a man or great compass and power
and as president of the North Car
olina Agricultural Society he made
a grand display of his magnificient
executive ability, assuming the man
agement of a pratical bankrupt in
stitution, he gave us a Fair that was
the pride of o.ir Stat. , a great finan
cial and industrial success, . paying
its premiums and redeeming past

Cuningham was elected byaunanr

In accentinsr. Colonel-Onnincdiafn

thanked the board for the honor and
declared that a great work was be
fore, the board. North Carolina bad
always been an agricultural State. In
order to put it upon a high plane,
wise thoughtful &nd earnest work on
the part of the board was necessary.
Zebulon B. Vance had always said
the Lord loyed the farmer in every
way. He was proud to see so many
of the best men 'of. the State present
and believed it mean L a new era in
the State. Grady had said that the
South was the coming section of th?
Union. Today it was sought Jo have
men of brams, energy , and capital
come to the State from every section
of the Union to unite with our peo
in building up the State and develop
ing her resources. To that end he
pledged his best efforts.
. J. C. L. Harris said that in behalf
o the old board he reciprocated the
sentiment just expressed and while
the old board served with the hew
there would be no fractional opposi
tion. .They would remember only
that all were North Carolinians and
that her honor and fame were a com
mon object. ;
