5s2: Hester, 1.27; l.. 3. Woodeli. IS: ].
c. Pool, 80: Nial, .0S. In these votes the
unrestricted woes OF St. Marys. Gear
ner1 and White Oak were not included.
The report BEING read Mr.. Pearson. OF
the White Oak delegation. asked TO be
allowed 10 cast its vote. This provoked
much debate and argument as TO the plan
of voting for the five commissioners,
White Oak desiring TO cast its ten votes
before any result was announced.
Mr.. b. NJ. Calling rose to a point OF
order when it was proposed TO nominate
the four candidates with votes exceed
ing 1l5 each. He declared that the con-
yention must have a ballot before the un-
instructed delegations could vote. Mr..
r Y. Simms spoke in opposition 10 the
view and Mr.. J%osephus Daniels said
there was no power in the convention TO
disfranchise White Oak, and that it GER
tainly had a right to Vote. Mr.. ". l.
Watson said there was no attempt to
make the primary returns the first vote.
Mr.. Daniels moved that the roll be called
and the delegates from each township
cast the vote as instructed, White Oak
and st. Marys voting also.
Mr.. ]. H. Pou said as the primary sys-
TEN, adopted in 1898, had always seen its
nominees erected, ina the people Idu
ratified its work, and they would do so
again. He asked if the convention should
say that the work Of the primary amount
cd TO nothing. He said there was really
no dispute. Four men were nominated,
and the motion is to confirm this ana
White Oak can vote for them. He moved
the nomination Of Messrs. Green, Scar
boro, Allen and Pegram be ratified, and
this was done by a viva VOce vote.
Then Mr.. Bryant Smith was placed in
nomination for the fifth commissioner,
ana Mr.. N. b. Broughton asked If votes
could be changed from uninstructed on
the first ballot. Mr.. r. \. SimmS nOml-
mated Mir. w. A. Ellington.
Mr.. w. II. Chapel, of New Light, led
In the matter of a disposition to allow the
delegates to vote outside Of inStruc-
lions and many were speaking at once.
Mr. n. b. Broughton nominated Mr.. w.
L. Utley.
Mr.. w. n. Jones declared that the in
structions should be obeyed and that no
delegate should violate them. Mr.. HOLD
ing declared the convention was on
The farmer and mechanic. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 18??-19??, 1902-08-05

matter there was a wide range of opin-
ton, extending from freedom from all
Obligations of instructions from the pri-
mary to that of simply allowing unin-
structed delegations to cast their vote
and settle matters.
This was finally settled by ratifying
the nomination Of the four gentlemen
whose votes in the primary, entitled them
to more than is votes in the convention
and then allowing the uninstructed dele
cations of ST. Mary's, Garner, with six
votes and White Oak, with ten votes,
to cast these votes. AS a result Mr.. w.
A. Ellington, whose vote already stood
1928. had added to this 2 votes from
ST. Mary's and Q votes from White Oak,
giving him 1928 and nominating him.
With but one nomination in reality to
make the convention was a long one, last
ing from u O'Clock to 3:15. Much time was
consumed in having read the official re-
turns from the t~hirty-six precincts, and
in the discussing Of the many motions
made in a multitude of speeches.
1t was an earnest and Watchful body

be read SO that each precinct might see
it was properly represented. Mr.. G. r.
Lee asked that the committee explain
how it made its calculations SO that the
delegates might understand how the
votes were cast. Mr.. Jones renewed his
request.
Various inquiries and remarks were
then made. Mr.. J. y. Holding declared
that not a single delegation could fig
ure the fractional votes and did not think
it proper to take the tabulated report
without examination. He urged that a
committee Of one from each precinct be
appointed and opposed the substitute Of
fered by Mr.. Daniels
Mr.. F. B.. Arendell insisted that the
motion for a committee of five should
stand, as it had been adopted. Mr.. r.
n. Simms said the sentiment of the con
vention was in favor Of no committee and
that it wanted to hear the returns read.
He moved to rescind the action Of the
convention with regard to a committee
and said that it would be best to have
the roll call with the reports read and
verified in the convention. The Y
ton agreed with Mr.. Simms and voted to
do away with the committee.
Mr.. j. H. Pou moved that the returns
from the various precincts and the tab
ulated statement showing the number
of votes each candidates is entitled to
receive in the convention be read before
the convention so that if there were err

and on motion of Mr.. d. Vaughan the
nomination of NJ. w. Page was made
unanimous.
The vote for Register of Deeds was
announced as being: Bernard, 126. %;
Rand. $3.50: Mial, 14.43. On motion OF
Mr.. w. c. Brewer j. j. Bernard was de-
clarcd the nominee for Register of Deeds.
For the House of Representatives. it
was announced that John G. DreWry had
received 1880, +. A.. Whitaker 1927
and A. b. Hunter 116.S1, each of these
being more than a majority of the del
egatcs, and on motion of Mr.. w p.

the returns as tabulated by the expert
committee appointed by the County
Chairman.
The motion prevailed and the commit
tee named was Messrs. c.. u. Arthur, w.
c.. Brewer, ". w. Wilson, ALT. Thomp-
son, +. b. Arendell.
Mr.. w. L.. Watson moved that the COM
mittee Of notification be increased by
one member from each precinct.
Mr. JoscphuS Daniels moved as a sub
stitute to all the motions that there be
no committee and that the convention
proceed to nominate the various candi-
dates, starting with Senator In his re-
marks he said every Democrat owed a
debt of thanks to the Ommitte that had
tabulated the returns, that their calcula-
tons and conclusions were of great value
to the delegations, but that nobody could
be declared the nominee by any declara-
ton of the result of the additions. He
maintainend that the delegates alone,
controlled by their Instructions, could
make nominatiOnS-that no committee
could declare nominations. In support OF
that position he read the Plan of Organ
iZation. Judge Clark was virtually nom
mated before the Greensboro Convention
assembled, but nobody supposed that the
committee could add up the vote and de-
clare him the nominee-that he was
placed in nomination as if enough votes
had not been instructed for him to nomi-
nate him, voted for by the delegates in
accordance with thehir Instructions and
then and only then declared the nominee.
That precedent ought to rule in this con
vention and must rule if the Plan of Or
ganization is olloWed.
! Mr.. w. N. Jones urged that the returns

rors they could be corrected. This was
carried.
The returns of the first two precincts
Barton's Creek and Buckhorn-Were
read with the tabulated vote and a halt
was called, as it was declared by Mr..
Daniels that the proceedings were con-
trary to the plan of organization.
Mr.. Vaughan, of Barton's Creek, moved
to accept the returns and declare the
nominees elected. Mr.. Daniels said this
could not be done as the delegates must
vote the instructions of the primary. Mr..
Vaughan moved to dispense with the
reading of the tabulated statement, and
this was adopted. Mr.. G. K. Lee moved
to dispense with all reading. Mr.. Geo.
Norwood held that the motions were out
Of order, this was sustained and the read
ing of the official returns was continued
and finished.
This being done the reports read were

settle them right. Having settled these
family differences among ourselves, when
we go out from here it will be to do our
whole duty
MI. Graham Haywood moved to make
the temporary organization permanent,
but Mr.. y. a. Thompson called for a roll
call before this. The roll being called
every township was reported present eH-
cept Cedar Fork, and it's delegates re-
ported in a short time. Mr.. Haywood
then renewed his motion and the temper
airy organization was made permanent.
Mr.. f. b. Arendcll moved to so into
the election, beginning With the Senate,
but withdrew his motion when Mr.. \.
a. Thompson moved that q committee OF
five be appointed to inspect and verify

Then the convention, by a viva Voce
vote, unanimously confirmed the nomi-
nations of Herbert E. Norris for the Sen
ate, w. NJ. Russ for Clerk of Superior
Court, b. p. Williamson for Treasurer,
DIR. T. NJ. Jordan for Coroner. Geo. W.
