Editor j. w. Bailey, speaking of an
article published to-day, remarked that
it was true that he went into the dem
ocratic primary under the invitation to
all white men who favored the amend
ment and he is bound by that primary
if the party keeps it's pledge that the
negro issue is eliminated.
1t is learned that DIR. Cy. Thompson

a 500, 900 brewery in Raleigh. North
