For Coroner.
To The Democratic Voters of Craven
County.
I hereby announce myself as candidate
for the office of Coroner for Craven
county, subject to the Democratic prl
merles. J. W. Duovid.
Fresh Grape-Nuts, Postum Cereal

Parker, Jr's.
To The Democratic
Voters of Craven
County.
The many friends of Sheriff J. W
Biddle desire to present his claims to the
voters of Craven county for renomlna
tlon and reelection. The county has
never had a better officer; he is sourto
ous, accommodating, faithful and In
every way thoroughly competent.
When a vacancy occurred In tho office
of Sheriff, on account of the resignation
of 'ei-Ehert(T Klnsey, the Board of Com
mlssloners endeavored to ascertain two
things: first, who wu the most compet
ent man In the county for the office, and
second, who would be most acceptabli
to all the voters of the county. They
finally selected Sheriff Biddle u they
were satisfied that he filled these two
qualifications better than any othor man
In the county. He hu only been in of
floe a part of one term, and It would not
seem right to refuse to endorse his ad
ministration the first time he comes be
fore the people. The people are fair and
just and would not Intentionally dis
honor any man without cause. It hu
been claimed that all of the candidates
are from the town of New Bern except
one. Thla Is not strictly correct; three
of the County Commissioners are from
the country, and two years ago No,
Township had a most excellent candl
date for Register of Deeds who would
have been elected If his own township
had supported him properly. Sheriff
Biddle wu born and raised at Fort Barn
well and lived tbere until the war came
on, when he entered the service of the
Confederate States and wu a most gal
lant and faithful soldier. The people csn
not do too much for the men who suf
fered and fought for th South during
the war. Of all the candidates upon the
ticket Mr. Blddl Is the only representa
tive of th soldier vote. It Is true s man
ought not to be selected to fill an office
because he wu a brave soldier, but when
he is in every way competent, th peo
ple ought not to forget such services
thes. While Mr. Blddl lives In New
Brn, hwu born and raised In the
country and atlH owns th lands where
hit father lived before him.
W do not wish to disparage aay
other candidate, u all the candidates
for offto la this County are good and
true men, whose; put services to the
Democratic party merit recognition aad
entltltlhem to aspire to any offioeln
th County But we do lay tbat we do
not wish, to east aay reflection upon
Sheriff Blddl by refuting toefect him
wkea be ha only served a part of on
term., Wa have never heard of an la
staaoewherea good men eapablt aad
competent, whO had beta ' appointed to
tho office of Bnerlff hat not received the
nomination at the hands of his parti tti
in suooeeaing vonvention. )!.,,.,) 1
In submitting ths elalmt of , Sheriff
Blddl to th people of Craven oouaty
w art only actuated by a desire to set
Justice don to a good offloer, and w
hav every Confidence that th people of
Craven countv will treat Sheriff Biddle
fairly, and will accord him t nomination
at the oomlng Primaries. :-,' -
