We have .jt the time this week
to say what we would like to con
cerning the nominations made at
Jthe recent County Convention, but
pyery man nominated was a good
mie. We will have more to say of
.this later.
t
The Democratic State Convention
passed oil iu perfect harmony, the
nominations made Jbe.ing selected
with great care. Every man on the
ticket, which will be found at the
head of this column, is a true and
tried Democrat, and it goes without
paying, that at the coming election
North Carolina will roll up a Dem
ocratic majority never before dreamed
pf in Ihpi&ftta.
There seems to be some njisun.
derstandiug among some people as
to what effect the constitutional
of his. All this class of people can
register and vote under the provis
ions of this great constitutional
amendment no matter whether they
.ever saw or heard tell of a single let
ter in any hook. And to furthor
protect and forever make sure the
rights of these white people to vote,
this amendment says that those who
afe .descendants of white men, when
once registered, shall never stop
voting until the good Lord shall call
them to that country where noting
is not necessary and where dema
gogues are not fouud.
