GOOD WORK

he saw a fine looking horse he

medicine.

one would scarcely know the

a Soldier Favors Hon. C. 3. Watson
for Senator.

To the Editor: A voice from the 18th
North Carolina regiment l see q num-
Der of letters advocating the election of
a United States Senator by the Lcgisla-
ture. AS an old soldier, / feel it my
duty to demand in the name of the
bravest soldiers that ever shot a gun or
drew sword, the election Of Hon. G. B.
Watson. A man that followed the flag
until OverpoWered by overwhelming
numbers surrendered the flag and re-
turned home to make a name that is
today a household word in almost every
Democratic family in North Carolina.
AS l g2zed upon him in the line of march
in Greensboro, at the reunion, 1 thought
and believed that the great Democratic
party would not fail to honor a man so
noble. There is no man in the field
that has as many claims upon us as G.
B. Watson. Having been born and raised
Democrat, l think I know something
of this party. l believe his desire is to
reward the most deserving and worthy
man.
Mr.. Watson ran for Governor when
he was conscious that it would be a
hopeless fight, esteeming principle great
er than office. Other men refused to
! ,
now be left out and another elected
Senator that has dore but little for the
party. 1t is admitted by us all that the
Senator should come from the western
part Of the State. SO then it naturally
falls to him. Yea, indeed the mountain
and valleys of Western North Carolina
break out and say Watson! Watson He
is entitled to this high position. Fellow
Democrats, if we now expect 10 reward
Mr.. Watson for his noble services, now
| is the time, like most of the old veterans,
| he will soon be beyond the age of hold
ing office. Hc has one of the most bril-
liant minds Of any man in the State.
Just as honest as a preacher. a dcvout
Christian, and the clergy of the State
will hail his election with JOY and glad
ness. Whenever | go among the rich
and poor the universal voice is for c. b.
Watson for United States Senator
Again l say, as an old soldier and a
Democrat, elect this man and you will
always be proud of your choice.
