WILSON PEOPLE DISAPPOINTED
As to the Outcome OF the Rufiin-
Bullock Trial.

Correspondence OF the Messenger.)
Wilson. y. c., October q
Much to the disappointment of the
Wilson people, the Ruffir-Bullock trial
accomplished nothing. The jury was
placed in the jury room on Saturday
night n kept there till Sunday morn
ing, but to no avail. They were then
brought into the court room and dis
charged by Judge Moore.
There are now banging over Wilson
county three such cases. and IL had
been hoped that they would all be
cleared up by this term Of the criminal
court. There will now be no chance,
unless a special term is ordered, to
have any OF these cases decided till the
next term of the criminal court. which
is in June.
The mistrial in the Ruffin case was
quite a surprise to many 1t was the
general opinion hat a verdict would
be rendered. The jury stood five &c
seven for conviction

Faison, n. c.. October %.
Editor of The Messenger:
During heated political times like the
present, remarks are frequently made
by visitors that move politics is talked
in Faison than any other town of it's
size. 1 guess it is true.
AS soon as the August election was
over the senatorial campaign opened
and from then until now as the differ
ent aSpirantS nave declared themselves
they and their claims have been freely
discussed and while there is no objec-
ton raised to either of them and un-
der different circumstances any n of
the aspirants would be very acceptable
for the high and honorable position for
United States senator, l can safely say
without eXaggeration, nine-tenthS Of
the democrats who come to Faison are
OutSpoken supporters for Hon. +. M.
/ Simmons for senator. They claim that
he is by natural position the
justly entitled to it because it
was his indomitable energy and his
courageous and untiring perseverance
as chairman of the democratic COM
mittee tina made it possible to elect a
United States senator. Hence we say
that the honor of representing North
Carolina in the senate is due Mr.. T. NJ.
Simmons for duty already and faith
fully performed.
Besides a senator, we have other i'm
uortant elections to look after-that of
congressman. Hon. G. r. Thomas, the
candidate from this district, paid us a
visit on the 18th and made us a capt.
tai speech to the delight of all who
heard him. We are always glad to
have him with us.
On the 18th Mr.. H. L.. Cook, of Fay
etteville democratic elector for the
| Third district was with us on his way
| from other points where he has beer
speaking in the interest of Bryan and
Stevenson. Although he had no ap-
pointment to speak at Faison he read
lily consented to speak at night and did
so to the delight of a good and appre-
ciative audience. He discussed some
of the most important issues that di-
vide the two great political parties ir
this country-imperialism and trusts
From here he went to Giddensville
and from there to Clinton, speaking al
each place. We expect to hear a good
report from him wherever he may
speak. He warns democrats not to be
over confident. That eternal vigilance
is the price of liberty. To work unit
