Whisker0ndO-Mr. Chairman, we have assembled for
the purpose of taking the steps elect another
Whig Governor of North Carolina. Where there
many asprants sir, and where those asprans present
various claims and qualifications it is indispensable that
this Club should not shrink from its duty by failing to
promulgate firm and decided opinion on tine subject
PROPOSE sir to take up, this OCCASION some of the
which have been spoken of in order that the club
may be the better prepared to decide. And in the out
set Sir, lest my remarks may be misunderstood it is
proper that my first choice should be proclaimed go
for Edoard Stanly. go for him, Sir, because he is
the most approved Federast in the State; because he
has had the moral courage to denounce the people OF
Nash and Edgecombe; because he is the friend of Mr.
Adams whom unjustly opposed in 1928; and in fine,
Sir, because knew his father in my boyhood, and with
him stood up during the last in defence of FEEDER
aism, and IN opposition to that These of
my reasons for making Edward Stanly my first choice

among them William A. Graham and Andrew Joyner.
But Sir, hazard nothing when Isay. they will not do
Who sir, is William A. Graham: When did he obey

of politics; he pretty good lawyer and looks well to
the interests OF William A Graham But he is not bold
and dashng, like Edward Stanly. Besides, sir, he is
ne,c man. There is not much of the choice blood in
his veins there is in Edward Sanlys And tor Col
Joyner sir, he might well in Halifax and along the
banks of the Roanoke, but he would stand but poor

than he says he is; and although it would look in

you fix it, keep silent when my friend Col Joyner is
made small Of That old gentleman sir, is identified,
literally wrapped up, only in the interests of Roanoke
but of the whole State. Who does not remember his
services in the Legislature! The way he bearded Mr.
Daniel in the late campaign? Who can forget that to
him the revolutions that have been witnessed,
and again, the interesting county OF Hall
