Judging From Their Actions Many People Right ; In Elizabeth City and Pasquotank County j Have Not Realized It Yet Republicans Are' More Active Than Democrats . Tuesday, November 7, is election Jay. The foregoing statement would ap pear to be superfluous, wth all that's been lu the dally newspaper for th last month about the probable out come in the doubtful Btates. But though everybody In these parts knows It's election day in New Jersey and New York, it does seem to be true'that, Judging from their actions, a great many Elizabeth City and Pasquotank County folks have not realized that it's election day in 7orth Carolina. As a rule in an off year, the Re-j publicans are showing more activity than the Democrats. The only po- Meal advertising that has appeared there wag gomethl t0 do anJ t gee in The Daily Advance, an uncom-; Mogt hate to Jugt wandef promisingly Democratic newspaper,'. wthnn. nn ,., ,na1 u has been put in It by Republicans. Two Republican candidates whOj are advertising their candidacy as Republicans are C. E. Kramer, Hal- let S. Ward's opponent for Congress, and J. W. Johnson, who Is out against F, P. Cohoon for Representative. Johnson is said to have the active support not only of the Pasquotank Republican party but of a few pro minent Democrats. Pasquotank County is normally Democratic by an overwhelming ma jority and even in an off year such as this Democratic nominees should be elected by a majority not less than one thousand. However, It is mani fest that such majority can be piled up unless Democrats get out to the polls and vote. In addition to the activity of Re publicans there are other reasons why all good Democrats should go to the polls and vote this year. In the first place, the County's prestige and Influence at conventions and such political gatherings Is large ly determined by the size of its Democratic majority. In the: second place, North Caro lina's Democratic majority, upon which depends In like manner much of the State's prestige at national party conventions, Is made up of the maJoriHes of the various counties, and Pasquotank desires to add as nearly, as possible Its full quota to this majority. In the third place, results of the elections in all the states will be closely scrutinized by Republican leaders looking for signs of failing Democratic strength. Two years ago North Carolina went Democratic by the most overwhelming majority In its history. That was a Republican year; but since that time in the country as a whole there has set in an unmistakable Democratic drift North Carolina Democrats do not " wish to give comfort to the enemy this year by giving them ground to believe, through a shrinking of tb Democratic majority in this State, that North Carolina has not felt the sweep of the Democratic tide. Finally, the stronghold of North Carolina Democracy is in the East Just as the West is the stronghold of North Carolina Republicans. It Is upon the East, then, that Democracy Is most largely depending for the size of the Democratic majority. Claude KItchin, In the Second Dis trict, and Alfred F. Bulwinkle In the Ninth, are the only Democratic Con gressmen in the field for election or re-election without opposition. In the Third, C. L. Abernethy is opposed by Thomas Hood. In the Fourth, Congressman Pou Is opposed by Eugene Hester. In the Fifth, Congressman Sfed Tnan is opposed by Mrs. Lucy B. Pat terson. In the Sixth, Homer L. Lyon is opposed by William J. McDonald. In the Seventh, William C. Ham mer Is opposed by W. B. Love. In the Eighth Robert L. Doughton is opposed by Dr. J. Ike Campbell. In the Tenth, Zebulon Weaver is opposed by Ralph R. Fisher. In addition to Congressmen. North Carolina elects this year a member of the Corporation Commis-i sion, for which the Democratic nom- lnee Is W. T. Lee, the Incumbent, and an Associate Justice of the Supreme; Court, for which W. J Adams Is the ; nominee. Mr. Lee Is opposed by Charles M. Hoover and Judge Adams; is opposed by W. W. Tlmberlake. j An amendment to the State Con-i stitutlon raising the rate of pay for, members of the State Legislature from fdtir to ten dollars a day willic. Thompson.

SUNDAY WAS NOT OF BLUE VARIETY Go' il WohIIht And HyilroplHiic Make Cheerful Sunday Crowds Along TIm Waterfront There was nothing blue about Sun day except the sky. At least, if any body felt that way, they didn't let the world know about it because such a mood wasn't stylish on Sunday. The weather was perfect to begin with, so kiddies and grownups, too, U'ftn tfH in stv niitHnnm A n than doesn't seem to get them anywhere. Fre napolis, Md., and Franklin 0. Tomp kins of Lake Charles, La., was the center of attraction. Everybody could walk down by the waterfront and see it at close range, then walk on and watch It from time to time as it flew overhead. The fortunate ones could go up in the air, and a great many did, so many that the aviators kept busy un til dark taking up passengers. Those who made the trip and who know about aviation declared that they had not seen such careful and skill ful piloting anywhere and they felt as safe with Mr. French as they did on land.
