Mr.. Webb located in Shelby and in a
short time formed copartnership with
Capt. ]. w. Gidney, and the firm had an
extensive and lucrative practice. In 1880
Mr.. Webb was elected mayor Of Shelby
and in 1883 was unanimously nominated
for the State Senate and was triumphant
ly elected over his Independent opponent,
DR.. ]. H. McBrayer. In 1887 he was again

and made an active and vigilant men,
Der and was often called to preside over
the Senate During President Cleveland's
first administration he served for a time
as postoffice inspector, but resigned this
position on account of sickness in his
family. He was prominently mentioned
for Lieutenant Governor, but declined to
allow the use of his name.
In 1892 he was appointed Solicitor OF
the Eleventh Judicial District by the
Governor to fill out the unexpired term
of Solicitor r. /. Osborne, who was elect
ed Attorney General Of the State, and he
has since filled this office to the salts
faction of the people and with great credit
TO himself. In 1894 he was elected despite
the political landslide of that year and
he was one of the few Democrats who
survived the wreck. During the ten
years which Mr.. Webb has held his
present office he has shown ability of a
high order and has demonstrated his fit
ness for the place. He is a vigorous
prosecutor, a manly man, an able lawyer,
forcible speaker, a sterling Democrat,
and warm hearted, generous Christian
gentleman.
Solicitor Webb has never been defeated
before the people He is one of the
handsomest men in the State and is as
broad minded and generous as he is fine
looking. He is a Royal Arch Mason, and
was married in 1878 to Miss K. L. An
drews, of Shelby, one of the lovely daugh-
tiers of DR.. w. p. Andrews. A son and
two daughters have been born into this

located in Asheboro. He became editor
also of the Asheboro Courier which he
made a strong and successful paper. Mr..
Hammer has been chairman of the Demo
cratic Executive Committee of Randolph
county and it's wisest political leader. He
enjoys large and growing practice. Upon
the death of the late Wiley Rush, Esq,
the Governor appointed Mr. Hammer
Solicitor. He has made an excellent of
flcer and was unanimously renominated
by the Democratic convention.
Mr.. Hammer was for several years the
progressive County superintendent of
Schools in Randolph and is a leader in
the educational revival. He was a promi-
nent candidate for CongSess in 1900, and
has twice been delegate to the Demo-
cratic National Convention.

for the purpose of practicing his pro-
fession and formed partnership with
Col. James E. Boyd. who had been APP
pointed Assistant Attorney General of
the United States.
In 1894 he was nominated by the Demo
cratic party for the State Senate in the
Granville and Person, but being under
the required age of % years, declined the
same.
In 1896 he was nominated as Demo-
cratic Presidential Elector and canvassed
the entire district with ability for the
party which he represented.
In 1898 he was nominated for the office
of Solicitor of the then Fifth Judicial
District, and after joint canvass of the
district, he defeated his Populist oppo-
nent w. D. Merritt. of Roxboro. n. c.,
by 1000 majority, which was a gain of
5000 votes, Judge w. P. Bynum. the Re-
publican nominee, having defeated Cap
tain Parker four years before, by about
1000 majority.
Mr.. Brooks was renominated at the
Democratic convention, held in the city
of Greensboro, on July 18th, 1902, for the
office of Solicitor by reclamation, and
expects to be reelected by handsome
majority. His opponent has not yet been
selected.
Mr.. Brooks has been lifelong Demo-
crat and has served his party faithfully,
believing in the principles of Democracy,
and at all times when opportunity pre-
sented itself, advocating these principles
with ability and eloquence.
He has filled the office of Solicitor with
great satisfaction to his friends and to
his party, and has executed the duties
thereof honestly, honorably and without
favor, even satisfying the Republicans
by his impartality and devotion to duty.
Mr.. Brooks is one of the ablest speak
ers of the Ninth Judicial District, and
undoubtedly will be reelected for the
next four succeeding years.
His affability and politeness have at all
times won friends for him among his
legal as we'll as his political opponents.
He rallies to his cause where he is con-
WINGED that the defendant is guilty with
persistency, aggressiveness, eloquence and
usually with success. He is, however,
not a blood thirsty Solicitor, and after
conviction, leaves the matter of punish
ment entirely with the court.
The writer has known Mr.. Brooks for
honor. His friends predict for him a
successful professional and political
career.
