Just why the Republican leaders decided upon him to make the race for commissioner of labor and printing did not at that time appear but he was given the nomination and since that time has been urged to ac cept. Democrats, watching the Re publican convention from the side lines, declared that the nomination was tendered Mr. Barrett as a peace offering. Some announcement is now expec ted from' the executive committee of the State Federation of Labor as to whether Mr. Barrett Is to be given labor's endorsement for the place. If the endorsement la made the Ashe ville labor leader is expected to launch his campaign which has for its ulti mate object the unseating of Mitch Shlpman. ' There is 'considerable sentiment here to the effect that the State Fed eration of Labor will not give its en dorsement to Mr. Barrett or to any other cintlidialL' because Mr. Ship man !,iii'l- mighty high with the labor 1011- - over 'he State. Mr. Ship iii a n, a sif-'iig labor union advo cate hini-cir. al'liough not actively identitied w.;a I '. -tate federation, has always l'olied a substantial vote from the ranks of labor and admirers of his are of the opinion that If the executive commit!'' of Hi'' State Fed oration of Labor endorses anybody for the place it will be Mr. Shipman. At any rate some announcement is looked for aa to what the labor for ces of the State Intend to do. It is reasonable to expect that they would prefer Mr. Barrett, one of their own, druggists.

I Hundreds of the state's best teachers 'are yearly lured from the school rooms into other work by salaries far above that paid them lor teaching. The only way thai North Carolina ran maintain its present teaching force and persuade others who are j badly needed to enter the profession, i, lo incra-e the pay.
