COL PEARSON ON THE INAUGURATION
Raleigh Praised. The Spirit of Vance Brooded
Over His Countrymen.

Among the visitors TO Raleigh at the
Inauguration was Col. w. s. Pearson, the
able editor of the Morganton Herald.
There IS no man on the North Caroline
press tlat can write better English than
Col. Pearson and his brief picture and
comment is so good that il is reproduced
in these columns. Rhc wrote:
Raleigh gave Aycock a fine welcome
and spared no expense. There was a
great crowd and no one suffered, as they
frequently have in The past on such oc-
casions, for bed and board Mr.. Frank
Winston was master of ceremonies, Judge
Clark did the swearing in, and the new
Governor made Il fine address. The
weather was charming and the scene on
the east front of the capitol was inspir
ing 10 the full.
Many handsomely gowned women gave
variety to the sea Of faces ranged around
Vance's statue and the reflection was
doubtless uppermost in many minds that
the great commoners spirit brooded over
his beloved countrymen there gathered
together to rejoice over a second deliv
erance Of the State. The Governor starts
in with a united party behind him and
enforcing the thorough respect of the Re
publicans.
1--WE can only wish for him that the
close of his term may be as bright as the
opening. ne means we'll we are sure.
but has many stages of rough shedding
ahead of him. But he has nerve as well
as brains 10 meet such.
Now a word as to the address of the
Governor Il was couched in the, broad
est and most brotherIy language and it's
author evidently means to be the Gov
erEor of all the people, not of the Demo
ccrats only bu+ of negroes, Republicans
and men of no political creed. His man
ner more than his words indicated the
strength Of his conviction that the day
OF counting votes not cast has played out
in this State and that general education
and honest elections are to be the rules
of conduct from this on"
