Good for old Nash -! A friend writes us from
Nashville, " send us down the banner" Nash shall
have it-she is indie ed the Banner County" We
learn, both from Nashville and Wilson, that the
one vote at the Old Fields, came from another
County. Such thing as native wing in that
quarter is unknown. Something might be made
by caging wing and showing him occasionally
atthe Old Fields. Manning's and Winsteads have
also done just as we'll possible. Nine cheers
and banner, for the Nash democracy!

"We have reelected Berry by an increased major
ly, and for the first time in quarter of century
we have elected democratic Sheriff. To elect the
Sheriff the democrats snapped off Lancaster and Pat
terson, and also Reid. The gain for Kerr is ndi-
cation of the popular sentiment, for that The
most powerful efforts made by the friends of
Turner to elect him, both here and all over the Coun
y The friends of Jones, candidate for Sheriff, swap
ped votes in every way to elect him. Ihear that
Chapel Hill students allowed to vote. These
are the true causes of this unwelcome and unlocked
for result.
We have head unoficially from three precincts in
Caswell-Withers, Free Suffrage, is gaining heavi-
ly on Williamson, anti-Free Suffrage
So we have lost two Commoners in Orange by
swapping votes for Sheriff! and the Sheriff is elect
ed! We hope our friends have had sufficient
warning on this subject. What is a Sheriff COM
pared to the triumph of the great Democratic par
ty in the State Legislature and for Governor?
