What Candidate
Will Get Votes
From Brummitt?
(Star New* Bureau.)
Raleigh, Nov 6.~What, Is to be
| come of the following that would
: have lined up lor Attorney General
J Dennis G. Brummitt, prospective
I randldate for governor, who an
j nounces that he will not be a can
didate? Which of the candidates
and prospective candidates will br‘
I hencfltted?
These and related questions have
. been asked many (lines In the las'
ll wo days, arid will be asked many
more ft is to be admitted that the
Ilruinmitt following, prospective fol
lowing. Is a high type of citizenship
Including leading lawyers, promin
ent Baptist,;, many Important |ico
nic In all walks of life, and parti
Irularly, (he hulk of the teachers In
the state Just how extensive, how
imposing It would have been, will,
of course, never he known. The
important question is where that
strength will finally settle,
Goneiully, it might be said, this
strength will dl. slpate Itself among
the threo candidates In the field
and others who might enter. If any
Many believe the lists are closed.
even though it Is several months
until the primary day. The Brunt
mitt retirement might add hopes
of others. Willis Smith, or Jose
phus Daniels, or Albert I,. Cox or a
new one or two. might enter the
conte: t. All of this now seems un
likely.
ft might be argued that the
Brummitt retirement might add to
the possibility of the entry of Mr.
Daniels that Mr. Daniels would get
most of his support. Many of the
Brummitt supporters, it is stated
are against the special session,'
which Mr. Daniels is seeking to pre
clpetate. His attltutde now, while
the state Is in a sort of balance,
could easily be tipped over by a spe
cial ses. ion, especially If that ses
sion should throw the state into a
frenzy over taxation. And that ap
parently is what Mr. Daniels i
seeking.
Many men who hold the Daniel:,
view in many respects, may well
ask the question of what Mr. Dan
iels would do about a special ses
sion if he wen governor, ft Is ap
parent, regardless of the condition
of the state, that he would call thf
extraordinary session, since he is
demanding that Governor Gardner
call the session Everything consld
j ered, It was probably a very Jnop
I portnne time for Mr. Daniels fot
i Mr. Brummitt to retire. -
wenei u mat Mr. Brummitt would
have had the bulk of support of the
23.000 school teachers In the state.
Some of that, it is said, would go to
Mr. Daniels, should he run. But th>
teachers generally are believed to be
in opposition to a special sea..ton
on one ground' that It might seel
further to reduce their salaries,
which was limited to 10 per cent
by the regular session
Prediction is that not 1,000 of
these 23.000 teachers would vote for
A. J. Maxwell, as a recult of the
tilts he has had, not only with the
heads of the state’s institutions, but
with the individual school men. And
it Is true that the teachers will be
heard from In this campaign Also,
they are sure to be able to account
for a block of at least 50 000 vote.
Some of them might go to R. T
Fountain. Many of them. It seems
certain, will go to J. C B . Eh ring -
hRUS.
I here Is sum has been a faint
close alltgnment between Mr Brum
mitt and Mr. Maxwell. Earlier in the
Campaign there was even intima
lion that there might be an under
standing arrived at between them
as to which would become a can
didate. No credence was or is given
to this by those who know botn
men, and It is certain that botn
would deny it. However, the Brum
mitt fchool folk strength will go
anywhere else but to Mr. Maxwell
although he might receive some of
the other Brummitt following.
some even say now mat Mi
Maxwell will retire from the race
before the primary, and that the
fight will be between Ehrlnghaus
and Fountain. However, those who
followed Mr. Maxwell during the
period while he was considering
entering, and recall the deliberation
and the consideration he gave be
fore he said anything, can hardly
see that result. They believe he is
in the running to the end, unless,
perchance, he himself should con
clude in due time that he had no
chance of election.
Mr. Brummitt’s retirement, while
reterred to as unexpected and star
tling, has been predicted In some
quarters for months However It Is
Of sufficient moment to cause ex
tensive speculation and has brough
'for a short period, at least the gub
ernatorial race out of its obscurity
into the limelight.

A Statement To The Public
BY
MAL SPANGLER, MANAGER PARAGON FURNITURE CO.
To my friends and patrons, and the general public:
I have been in the Furniture Business in Shelby for fifteen years, and never have 1
made a statement in any of our advertising that I couldn't back up to the last word.
We stated in previous advertising that we were going out of the Furniture Business,
and I hereby wish to state emphatically that we are positively going out of the Furniture
Business.
When we put on our Auction Sale our object was to close out all the furniture stock on
hand. Th's. we thought, was a very good sized job, in fact the job looked too big for us, so
we secured the services of The C. Lawrence Co»k Company, a Nationally Famous Organiza
tion of Furniture Auctioneers.
The Auction opened Tuesday, November 3rd. with tremendous crowds at each Auction
Session, and more merchandise was sold than ordinarily would be sold in a month of regular
selling. In fact wg sold nearly all of the suites and larfji: pieces the first day; and as 1 had
an opportunity to buy the $21,000.00 assets of the Donald & Donald Furniture Store, of
Asheville, N. C., from the Inited States Court in Bankruptcy, for a fraction of it’s regular
value, this stock had a large number of fine living room, dining room and bedroom suites,
the very merchandise we needed to help us with keeping the stock fairly well balanced, and
enable us to woi"k off our regular stock, which consists mostly of small odd pieces and staple
house furnishings, such as stoves, ranges, mirrors, tables, mattresses, springs, beds, rugs etc.
This Bankrupt Stock will he on display in the building across the street from us, for
merly occupied by the ( hryster Dealer, and we invite you to come in, look through our own
stock, as well as the stock we purchased, and buy any of this merchandise at your own price,
as it will all go under the Auctioneer’s Hammer, at Public Auction.
