Republican State Committees of Each Faction
to Meet 10 Wilmington To- morrow.
There are many indications that
compr omise may be effected on the Re-
publican state and congressional ticket
tomorrow. Following the Republi-
can primaries of Saturday, announce
ment was made that the Republican
and Union Republican state COM
mittees are to meet at Wilmington at the
same hour tomorrow. The meetings
will be separate, but it is understood
that each committee will carefully
consider the question of harmonizing,
and there will probably be an inter
change of overtures between the two
organizations. 1t is known that every
effort is to be made to agree upon q
fusion ticket before the committees 8
adjourn. Just how it will be done is
not known at this time, but it is be-
lieved that the governor will be Sc
lected from list of several names to
be considered This will involve the
removal of DR.. Joseph Fl. Chandler
from the head of the Republican ticket
and the taking down of Henry @. Con-
rad from the head of the Union Re-
p lblican ticket.

FARMER HAS EXPERIENCE WITH HELP.
Unable to Procure Home Labor He Drove to
Wyoming For Sixteen Negroes.


KENToN, September 27.-The "help
situation" a subject that has given
the farmers more concern than any,
thing else, is not without its hardships
and disappointments. H. M. Wright
had an experience last Thursday that
caused him much. impatience. He
wanted to get his corn cut and muc ch
delayed because he could not get local
help, he hitched up and drove to
Wyoming Wednesday night, where he
was told he could find colored men.
He succeeded in getting sixteen to re-
turn with him Thursday morning. 1t
was nearly nine o'clock before they
got to work in his corn field aud they
put in the rest of the day rather in
differently and when six o'clock came
they became dissatisfied and refused
to stay at Kenton longer. Mr.. Wright
was obliged to carry them back to
Wyoming. This is but one OF the
many incidents where a farmer is sup
against it." The scarcity of help is
the one harrassing question they have
to deal with, and despite the paying
fruit crops and high prices of grain,
farmers very frequently become dis
couraged and give up their farms for
more cOngenial occupations.
