congress once, and isn't likely to be
anxious to go back.
Mecklenburg Candidate*.
It is likely, the political dopes
ters say. that a candidate from
Charlotte or Mecklenburg would
have the best chance to unseat
Lincolnton's Mr. Jonas. although
I there is talk of another Lincoln
; man, W A. Graham. being the
| proper person for the job. It is only
logical that a Mecklenburg candi
date may have the upper hand over
any other Democratic nominee, for
Mecklenburg casts a big Democratic
vote ordinarily—the only county, in
fact, which tosses In more Demo
cratic votes than Cleveland, and
Cleveland never goes Republican
even when Mecklenburg does. But
Mecklenburg has one handicap.
About every other lawyer and
statesman there wants to be the
county’s candidate. If they all run,
or a greater portion of those who
want to, they will kill off each
other and some Democratic nominee
from another county will likely
come out with the nomination on
his brow
The Voung Folks.
Of recent, years, and the trend
will be more so when the next bal
lot. battle opens, the young voters —
the fellows considered mere boys a
few years back—will have much to
do with the outcome. Things have
changed since the World war, and
it's hard any day in the rear, or
any year in a lifetime, to beat the
enthusiasm of youth. And a funny
thing about youth is that the young
voters, who are rapidly getting con
trol of things, do not care so much
about where the candidate is from
a.s they do about his pep, per
sonality. and ability. And light at
that point is a new factor which
must be considered in the oncom
ing congressional fight. The lead
ers among the young voters, those
of them expressing themselves, are
all inclined, so the writer hears from
several sources, to get behind one
man when the proper time arrives.
That particular young fellow, a vet
eran of the war, may not even know
about it, but he is likely to wak?
up one of these days to find a
congressional boom centering about
his head. He is. if you haven't
guessed. Wilson Warlick, young at
torney of Newton. Catawba county.
In legal duties young Wa/lick has
made many friends, for the most
part because of his ability. Young
blood likes young blood and the
Newton barrister is a couple ot
strides ahead of the starter's gun.
If he cares to make the race, and
if one considers the conversational
trend among the young voters- and
considers that trend worthy of con
sideration.
Yet all prospects Indicate that
the next congressional fight in this
district will be much of a fight, one
equalling that of last November,
both in the primary and the elec
tion—and before it gets here ard
gets over many new angles will have
entered along with the names of
many new candidates

Thousands Attend
Rutherford Event
There On Friday
Josephus Daniels. The Principal
Speaker At Sesqul-C’entennlal
Celebration.
Rutherfordton—With Josephus
Daniels of Raleigh, publisher of the
News and Observer and secretary of
the navy under Woodrow' Wilson,
eulogizing Rutherford county, its |
history and its traditions, thousands ■
of persons gathered here Friday for j
the sesqul-ccntcnnial celebration of
the formation of the county.
Mr. Daniels was t’he principal
speaker of the day though a parade
and other entertainment features
were provided for the amusement
of the thousands present.
Mr Daniels, in glowing terms,
vividly pictured the history' of Ruth"
erford county from the days when
the followers of Hernando De Soto
visited the valleys of the county
down to the present time when cot
ton mills, well kept farm, industrial
plants and hydro-electric plants
dot the landscape He carried the
county through every struggle since
the Indian wars before the Revolu
tion down to the World war citing
the deeds of immortal names to
Rutherford county, especially the
name of Griffith Rutherford, for
whom the county was named.
The deeds, the hardships and the
lasting monuments erected by ljardy
pioneer school teachers and minis
ters of the gospel were lauded by
the speaker.
Mr. Daniels, in his recital of the
venerable history of the county, cit
ed numerous individual names of
prominent Rutherford county resi
dents but did not neglect to pay
tribute to the unheralded and un
sung “average citizenship.’’
starting witn the arrival of De
Soto's men In 1539, Mr. Daniels car
ried his audience through to the
settlement of the section by the
Seotch-Irtsh of the sixteenth cen
tury.
In 1770 the large county of Tryon
was elected from a part of Meck
lenburg county and then. Just 150
vears ago, he said, the county of
Tryon gave way to Lincoln and
Rutherford counties.
In the days of the revolution, and
in other days, the people of Ruth
erford county were divided in opin
ion. Tryon county was one of the
three counties in the state to give
strongest support to the British in
that war and yet more than 800
men bore arms for independenca
Mr. Daniels again turned the
years back before the revolution to
trace the Ufe of General Griffith
Rutherford. His exploits in stamp
Ing out Indian uprisings and his
work against Ferguson in Western
North Carolina were recited.
Indicative of the part played by
heroes of Rutherford county in the
great war for independence Mr. Dan
leis cited the gravestones in Brit
tain Presbyterian church nine miles
northeast of here, where the graves
of many who were soldiers of the
revolution are yet marked today.
When it came time to select a
new name to replace "Tryon,” the
name of the "royal governor who
had thwarted where he could the
early dreams of independence of
the people of North Carolina,” the
names of two American patriots,
Lincoln and Rutherford were se
lected. Among places where Griffith
Rutherford saw service were against
the Indians, against the Scovellte
Tories in South Carolina and un
der Genera] Lincoln at Savannah.
Mr. Daniels quoted from Ashe,
North Carolina historian, "he ren
dered immediately to the people of
North Carolina more original ser
vice than any other North Carolin
ian during the war.” Rutherford,
after the war, moved to Tennessee
and there a county also bears his
name.
