War in the Eighth Congress-
iona| District.
GAG RULE WAS SUPREME
LINNEY FORCED ON THE CON
NENTION CAUSING a BOLT.
CANDIDATES WHO HAD NO POSSIBLE SHOW
They Were J. O. Wilcox, of Ashe 7. J. Du'
la, of Wilkes; Alex Baiy, of Dave;
Sam Marshal, of Surry.

North Wikesboro, y. c., July l.. -
Especial. THE Eighth COngreSslohal
District Republican convention was call
ed to order this morning at ii CLOCK
The counties responded, after which the
chairman appointed a committee on ere
dentials composed of Linney men against
protest. Gag rule reigned supreme, ana
the report of the credentlal commute"
was forced on the convention thus de-
barring all candidates except Llnney'
This caused a bolt and Il large number
walked out of the convention. Then the
Linney men were lords of all they sur
veyed. and he was nominated without
n Dissenting voice. After they had ad-
journed the anti-Linney men assembled
and organized. They appointed an eX-
ecutive committee which is to call Il con
vention later and nominate another can
dldate The convention was a warm
number from start to finish, and 1t was
clearly evident that the revenue officers
and postmasters were Linney's hackers,
who did not propose to allow any of the
other candidates to have any chance.
Hot speeches were made by both sides
and the breach .widened. The following
is Il list of candidates who. under the
gag rule. were refused any chance To
present their claims: DIR. j. O. Wilcox,
of AShe: T. !. Dula, Wilkes; Alex. Bail
ely. Davie: Sam Marshall. Surry. All
these men were in the fight with a good
following. but the rulings of Gar Reed
laid them into the shade. The last CON
vention adopted strong resolutions de-
nouncing Iinney's chairman. cortege of
revenue officers, postmasters and other
office holders.
