Hopper Youth Hangs Seli In Jail
Alter East King Station Robbery
Jimmy Eugene Hopper. IS, of
Grover, was found dead in a city
jail cell about 6 o'clock Sunday
afternoon, after giving himself
up in Rutherfordton for an early
Sunday robbery of Bast King
Esso Station.
An accomplice, and, local offi
cers and acquaintances think,
leader in the armed robbery of
$H0 and gas valued at $4.25,
James Truitte, 17, escapee from
a Kentucky prison camp, was
still unapprehended Wednesday,
city police said.
: Hopper had been an empioee
of the East King station for
for about six weeks last summer,
during the vacation season for
regular employees. Gene McCar
ter, the owner, had thought he
was employing Jimmy Hopper’s
brother, but said the youth work
ed out satisfactorily.
The hold-up occurred subse
quent to 1 a. m. Sunday naoriv
ing. Haskell Wilson, on duty,
knew the Hopper youth, was
quite surprised when he was told
to empty the cash register. He,
along with two others, was or
dered into the station’s back
room, where the telephone was
located. He called polioe imme

1,18.
Chief of Police Paul Sanders
alerted surrounding enforcement
agencies, said ,he was called
about 4 a. m. by Rutherfodton

youth had given himself up.
Chief Sanders and Officer Ernest
Beam returned Hopper to Kings

Elections Board Certifies
Putnam As Justice Of Peace
Action Ends
Litigation
By Candidate
Elzie Lee Putnam, a Republi
can, is a duly elected Cleveland
County justice of the peace.
His election was certified Wed
nesday morning by the three
man Cleveland County board of
elections by unanimous vote, the
board reversing itself from its
previous position.
Mr.. Putnam had filed a peti
tion in Cleveland Superior Court
seeking a writ of mandamas or
dering that he be seated. Subse
quently, the elections board filed
a demurrer, with hearing tenta
tively set for last Saturday be
fore Judge P. C. Froneberger, of
Gastonia. Meantime, the board
of elections conferred with both
officials of the North Carolina
State Board of Elections and
with the attorney-general’s of
fice.
According to the formal state
ment, following Wednesday
morning’s meeting, the board, in
light of these conversations, de
cided it had initially ruled in er
ror.
The board's action has the ef
fect of ending the litigation.
Question devolved over wheth
er Mr. Putnam, Republican nom
inee for .Number 4 township jus
tice of the peace, and J. Lee
Roberts, veteran incumbent and
Democratic nominee, opposed
each other as party tickets, or
whether both would be elected.
An assistant attorney general
had offered the opinion that
since the township, under the
state constitution, permitted elec
tion of several magistrates (well
over the number of two), that
both would be elected. Raymond
Maxwell, secretary of the state
board of elections, offered a con
trary opinion.
Over objections of John B.
MoBrayer, GOP member, Demo
crats Ralph Gilbert, chairman,
and George Thomasson, secre
tary, accepted the Miaxwell opin
ion.
County GOP leaders, in behalf
of Mr. Putnam, protested to the
state board and asked it to seat
him. The board declined on
grounds it had no jurisdiction
in matters of legal interpreta
tion, suggesting that Mr. Put
nam’s relief, if any, was to be
found in the courts.
The January 12 hearing wasn’t
held, it having been postponed
by Judge H. L. Riddle, who was
holding a term of court.
In the election, Mr. Roberts
was accorded 1073 votes and was
duly certified after canvas of the
election returns. Mr. Putnam was
accorded 651 votes.
Mr. Putnam, partner and man
ager in Putnam Brothers Ga
rage, said he was gratified by
the decision.
“I appealed as a matter of
principle,’ ’he commented.
'Mr. Roberts, the Democratic
justice, said he had made no
comment and had none, adding
the matter was one for the elec
tion Of fiends.

CERTIFIED — Republcem Elzie L.
Putnam was certified as a Num
ber 4 Township justice of the
peace by the county board of
elections Wednesday morning,
ending litigation launched by Mr.
Putnam to obtain certification.
Board Talks
Registration
The city board of commission
ers discussed a new registration
of city voters last week, but de
ferred action for further report
on necessary details which they
asked Mayor Kelly Dixon to pro
vide.
City Attorney J. R. Davis, had
stated the commission, which
acts as the city election boards,
has two options: 1) to require a
new registration, or .2) to au
thorize re-copying and purging
of the books by election offici
als.
Board members indicated they
felt the copy job would be of lit
tle Value and might result in
considerable error.
In another action, the board
unanimously instructed City
Clerk Joe McDaniel to invest $28,
290 in gas system funds in the
two savings and loan associa
tions — over Mr. McDaniel's ob
jections. The Clerk had informed
the board that W. E. Easterling,
secretary of the local government
commission, has, on two occas
ions, told the board that the gas
bond resolution nor prospectus
designates savings and loan as
sociations as suitable depositor
ies. The funds are currently on
checking account and won’t be
required — or usable — prior to
October 1. City Attorney Davis
said he felt the funds should be
invested in the savings and loan
firm:.
The board re-zoned, from resi
dential to business designation,
a North Batleground avenue lot
adjacent to the Purol Service Sta
tion.
In other actions, the board:
1) Deferred request of .the po

How Long Since GOP Won Office?
Wiliams Says Last Sweep In '96
BY MARTIN HARMON
Election of a Republican jus
tice of the peace for Number 4
township effected Wednesday by
the county election board when
It certified the election of Elzie
Lee Putnam — posed the ques
tion of when a Republican last
had been elected to public office
in the county.
Wray A. Williams, lifelong Re
publican and continually active in
GOP Ranks, said he couldn’t
be sure about township officials
such as justices of the peace and
constables, but remembered the
last major victory of the GOP in
county political wars was in 1S96.
A boy of*15 at the time. Mr.
Williams, though ''’hgible to
due *o *<>••, ree is, “I think

Though < ■ couh'n’a remember
the identity of their opponents,
nor Sheriff Fortenberry’s initials,
he said he recalled the Quinn
election particularly because
“that was the closest one”.
In that year the GOP also
elected a Governor. It was the
era of the Fusion movement, with
the Populists aligning with the
Republicans, and putting D. L.
Russell, of Brunswick county, in
the state house. He served the
four-year term from 1897-91 to
be succeeded by Governor Charles
B. Aycock arid an unbroken
string of Democrats to the pres
ent day.
The 1896 success, Mr. Williams
ifcalls, did not end ardent GOP
activity in the county though Mr
Williams doesn’t remember sub
sequent successes.
