D. McCall "The militant democracy of Mecklenburg county, represent ing more than G.000 stalwart Democrats, who have answered the demands of its party at all times, met in the Iecklenburg County Courthouse on November 15 and unanimously selected one of her ablest Son's, Johnston D. McCall, as their representa tive, and the standard bearer of the Democrats of Mecklenburg for the Congressional Democratic nomination. "Mecklenburg County confidently expects her sister coun ties, representing the Democratic party, and all goqd citizens who believe in the principles of democracy and good govern ment to rally and support her nominee. "It is a matter of history that Mecklenburg hasr'not had a representative in Congress in the last 25 years, but during all this time has patriotically and loyally and gladly stood by and helped every sister county with their favored sons and staunchly delivered the necessary vote to save the district. "We particularly call upon Cleveland County and Shelby to observe the Golden Rule and do for Mecklenburg what Meck lenburg has done for her, and her favored sons. For several terms Cleveland presented to the Democratic convention the honorable James L. Webb for solicitor, and Mecklenburg gave her endorsement. For a number of terms Mecklenburg has supported this same son of Cleveland for the honorable position 1 judge of the Superior Court and has done it gladly. "It was the privilege of Mecklenburg to aid Cleveland and Shelby in nominating and electing another of Cleveland's hon ored sons, Mr. B. F. Dixon, to the high office of State Auditor. . "We would again remind Shelby that when she wanted to i:"M,,- another of her distinguished sons, the Honorable O. Max (ianl.'K-r, to the higli ollice of Lieutenant Governor, her sister ci'y and the grand old county of Mecklenburg stood by and i elpt'd roll up a great majority. "We would again call Shelby's attention to the fact that when the Honorable Clyde Hoey sought the office of Assistant United States District Attorney, the citizens of our county un selfishly and heartily endorsed his candidacy and aided him to success. "And last but not least, when Shelby earnestly desired to honor that gallant gentleman, that splendid Democrat, the Hon. K. Y. Webb, to a seat in Congress, that it was Mecklenburg, even at the expense of self-sacrifice and self-denial to her own sons, gave Shelby the necessary vote to enable them to achieve their heart's desire. We would further remind Shelby that for the last eighteen years or more the unterrified Democracy of Mecklenburg County, together with her sistercounties in the District, has kept her favored son in Congress and it is a fact, known and read of all men, that for three different times the Democracy of the District would have gone down in defeat had it not been for the reinforcements and reserves furnished by Mecklenburg. "Now, Shelby, as a unit ic the Ninth Congressional Dis trict, has the eminent distinction of having the following sons in office, State and Federal : Judge E. Y. Webb, Hon. Clyde R. Hoey, holding Federal offices; Hon. James L. Webb and Gov. O.. Max Gardner, holding State offices. "By every token of fair-play, by every sense of justice, and by every element of gratitude we ask Shelby and demand of her and her citizens that they reciprocate, and do for Meck lenburg and her favored son, J. D. McCall, what we have done for her. "For the same reason that Hon. W. B. Council and the grand old county of Catawba has deferred to Mecklenburg, we ask Shelby and the Hon. Clyde Hoey to follow their example. "We furtner appeal to our sister counties of the District to stand by the Democracy of Mecklenburg ahd Mecklenburg's candidate, and help us elect our candidate. "The Democracy of the District will honor itself in nomi nating and erecting the Hon. J. D. McCall. For ten years he was the chairman of the Democratic party of Mecklenburg, and led to victory the hosts of Democracy in an hour that tried men's souls, and required the hghest order of leadership and ex ecutive ability. Mr. McCall was honored by the citizens of Charlotte to the position of its chief executive. "McCall has been one of the exponents of the State in every movement made for the betterment of North Carolina's moral, educational, industrial and material uplift, and for thirty years or more has fought the battles of Democracy. "This is an hour in the life of the nation that calls for t . a a s istrong men. McCall is one nunarea per ceni American, stanas with both feet on the constitution, guaras jeaiousiy tne nag, and' the fundamental principles which it represents." if CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE
