sation was caused in Raleigh last Fri
day after noon by fight between Sam
uel G. White. ex-cashier of the smash
ed State National bank, and John G.
Williams, his nephew, who was form
erly employed in the bank. The fight
began on tfe sidewalk and ended in
the bank. White had a cane with
which he struck Williams, who then

Surry Letter.

Mr.. ED1ToR:-I ask short space
in your paper to answer question
asked by our Yadkin brethren asking
if Surry would support j. L. Shugart
in the Senatorial Convention. [ think
l can say this for Surry: The Surry
delegation will 60 to the convention
mute, and remain so until Yadkin
nominates its man, and .Surry only asks
that Yadkin bring forward good,
honest, truthful, straightforward and
above all a sober farmer and
we believe that man is J. L. Shu-
CART. We have been discussing the
matter sbetween ourselves in Surry
and we have. decided that we would
like to have just such man as J. L.
Shugart to represent our interest in
the Senate of North Carolina. Il
Yadkin viii bring his name to the
convention we believe he will be the
nominee. DEMOCRAT.
