along party tinea Mr Wilson. It Is
thought. Dolled a little mere than his
party strength. The Democratic non ■
■neee did nat forget, it ia alleged, any
where near the full Democratic
strength of the town. Many Lhmo
crata, it ia aald, did aot taka the time
to vote became .1 Was practically
certain that the Republicans did not
stand a chance of slactioo.
Defeat of the IspoMicas hosts was
the direct outcome of Edgar Carlyle
West’s efforts to tho select cilia ens'
ticket to oppose tke Democrats. His
efforts la that direction proved a fias
co. Really no greater ‘‘/ox peer" was
evac perpetrated In Dunn. The dtl
sen* meeting almost unanimously en
dorsed the ticket chosen by the Dem
ocrals. After this was done Mr. West
and Albert Suilcs, aided by five oth
er Republicans, wishes candidacy up
on Mr. Wilson and his fellow run
ners.
These candidates are among Dunn's
beat dtisens and aro the most pnpu
lar men of thetr party in town. Hud
they been opposed to men less popu
lar in the Democratic rnnlu. it is ad
milled that they would have made a
much batter showing.
As it is however, the fact that the
"disgruntled’’ Democrats are more
noisy than numerous. Not more than
a doien of them voted against the
administration which has backed the
police department Id its efforts to
utake Dunn a clean town even if it
has to Jail some of its best eilicms..
Republics ns. though, are far ftom
displeased over tbs result. If. they
ay. they have at least 111 votes in
tho town of Dunn, Averasboro will
give thorn a large enough majority
to carry Harnett county In the No
vember election.
