'Hon. E. W. Pou was made permanent j chairman, and also delivered what they called the key-pote speech. Goternor Morrison spoke to the convention and made "no opologies, but. set forth in ."glowing terms what his ad^ millistialhni had meant- to North Car olma. Well;-there have been-tremen-j dpUR strides made during- Wis administration, and while there is considerable feeling over the question of >r ' -taxes, the State has-just cause to ^el prop.l pf itself for the advance in ado In fact, the. counties have only themselves, to blame for any excessive taxesi, for :tH- State does not collect a penny from the county for State purposes, save what is piid on fncom'c and inheritance taxes, 'and one iiahle for these oughfto pay. If the taxes arc excessive, and they art?, you v.. voted them on yourself Or y?vir repr - resentative put them on you by legislative enactment, and the State is not responsible. ? . - But the -speegHT'of- the day was made by Hon. 0:"Max Gardner, lato candidate for Governor. * He only i spoke for about tnirty. nitnutes, nut he caught the cAwd aqC received an - . ovation worthy of the man and the >- speech He announced that he wouldnot be a candidate for Governor in 1924, as the East was entitled - to name the man at that titne. f; There was no contest of any dcj;. ' acriptidn, save the little ripple before the platform committee, which : was % occasioned by jwntie of the aid fellows | who have not* become reconciled to Women voting. They opposed putting . any women on tHa Executive Com? ?-? v i v mittee, but they tost out, and took I their medicine gracefully. By the; way, one of the'(most timely arid en- I joy able speeches was made by Mrs. i Jerman. She told the convention, "we i ?nay not be wanted, but we are HERE." Apd ;they were, for thtey were represented in nearljL-every disy > trict in the State. ? o ' TYh platform is short, briefly set; ferting forth what has been ascomplish - ed Under Democratic rule, and.nam* In* a few things which the party stands fori etc. ' . 0ite of tfic pleasing things of tWi ' ?- conventionwas the fact that the grand %' old man, Woodrow Wilson, was still t the Best loved, of all,, and whon.Nfr.
