Until the friends of Democratic
State Chairman, Thos. D. Warren,
placed that gentleman actively in the
ruip^pg on Tuesday, Judge W. J.
Adj^^, of the Superior Court, aps
pe£?ed to have the lead in number of
endorsements. His support came
largely from local bar associations in
the Piednjont section and from the
far west, the east being divided be
tween Warren, Winston and Finch,
of Wilson. But Ts^en the “boosters**
of Tom Warren got into action,
friends of the other aspirants soon
realized in him a formidable candi
date. As might bave been expected,
the politicians were accused of being
lined up for Warren, ^whom the op
position chairged had little to his cre
dit, except a record of service to his
party as its official liead. But Wtren
supporters claimed more than a re
cord of effective, mnselfish and de
voted party service ior their candi
date. They pointed to his ability as
r lav-yer, his judidal turn of mind
high character as a man,
r a’ntp.ining the while that occupying
r- mocrtant official position in the
party organization slwuld be no bar
to promotion in the line of his chos-
cn profession.
However, the Adamg forces li^ra-
lly swamped the executive office to
day and added to their presence was
