PAGE EIGHT WINSTON'S DEFEAT CAUSES A STIR Couple of Dead Pasts Too ' - ... 1 .. Miirh for Him to LomDat in the Third District Raleigh, Sept. 11. The defeat .Tudeft Francis D. Winston for the mirotinn in ho Third Judicial dis . . trir nr marv Saturday nas naa a ue 7 . "" Lnth wmw of pressing effect here both because i 7. . r f tho ohloot tne retirement vl uuc ; judges and Decaus3 it kick-back at Governor Craig. It was impossible to find anybody in town today from any section who did not grieve over it. Democratic leaders and officials feared Judge Winston's defeat all the time. They knew the ability of the tried judge and district attorney, the past grand master of Masons, the judge of the early year in the new century, the lieu tenant governor and about the smart pat eamnaiener in the State in the heyday of Glenn and Aycock, but they knew with all of that Judge Winston would have the race of his life. T1- rv-ti4 nfrnlnot VlA Til A Trx U7QO QC I ..feUc a6..UDL - fiprre as the Republicans made ' it I wh,n he left that party and Joined the Democrats. The same kind of attacks were employed, the same old cicturcs. same old assault and the Bame old manufactured letters which are said to have come from opposition party headquarters and signed by al iens. One would have thought that the third was in the throes of a re volution like '98 from the reports that came up here during July. August and September. No more rancorous one was ever heard, according to former political -opponents of the judge who were with him this time. The politicians here cannot under stand why Judge Winston gave up the ' .txrii i. i, anui ii: ohij wiuni perm oct- eral hundred dollars more than a judgeship. Republicans understand it all. They accredit Winston with wisdom in getting out before Hughes came in. That seems to have been a universal explanation but the truth is Judge Winston was always more certain of Wilson's re-election than I of Winston's first election. TheJudgelin doesn t like to prosecute. He tires of lambasting blockaders. He wanted a judgeship and was willing to quit immediately when Governor Craig appointedThim . The Judge never said whether he desired to try -the race in the third again. He was beaten by a narrow margin back in 1902 when the Demo cratic convention chose Judge R. B. Peebles over him. Thn noliticians did that. This year many of the vervigeons wmcn "PPea tne oeam at lu best politicians were on his side. Judge Winston had canvassed the state repeatedly and had gained popu larity everywhere. One thing looked certain and that was the willingness of the people to nominate him over the heads of the machinists in the organization. But the people treated himjnighty badly . The fact that a district repudiated the appointment of a Governor is not' significant. Aycock tried Winston 15 years ago and the people without any line upon whatJtfe young judge knew or could do. through their political representatives retired him to private life. In two years mor Iir ramp nn and was made lieutenant governor onago' the tlrtpt with Hlonn T r. r... (1.- I J- G v v ii . i jo L r: i liic .
