Statesville. n. c.. May 17.-At the
largely attended and enthusiastic con-
vention held here the following reso-
luton was passed without a dissent
ing voice:
1.-The Democracy of Iredell county,
in convention assembled, thanks the
party in the State for the honor It
conferred upon our distinguished
countyman, Hon. Wilfred Dent Tur-
ner in his nomination and election
to the office of Lieutenant Governor
four years ago. We point with pride
to his honorable, able and fearless
service, both as President of the Sen
ate and presiding officer of the court
of impeachment, which has won Moth
ing but approval and commendation
from all the people of the State. We
present him to the party in the State
for the office of Governor, confident in
the belief that his ability, integrity
and devotion to the principles of the
party will make him a worthy sue
cessor of Vance and Jarvis, Scales and
Aycock He is a campaigner of rare
power, a man whose life, public and
private, is an open book, and a DEM
ocrat of the best type. His strong
common sense, known conservatism
and remarkable business and exec
utive ability warrant us in promising
to the people of the State a broad.
progressive yet wise and conservative
administration should he be norfli-
mated"

neither at Lumberton. The people
were studiously deferential but cold
as ice; the lawyers passed him with a
scarcely perceptible inclination of the
head. In the court house were many
ladies and young girls who watched
the proceedings with the greatest in
terest, hearing the judge with salemn
impassiveness of feature and twitter-
ing and rustling with delight when
respondents counsel made a point.
Judge PEBBLES must have felt all
this deeply. But If he did he did not
show it. During all the argument of
the hearing, containing as it did many
necessarily direct references to the
severe, charges that been brought, he
maintained at all times the same
pleasant manner which characterized
his whole bearing during the day.
His keen eyes lasned now and again
but always in suspense to the dry hu-
NOR of his brain. No one could have
locked and suspected that the man
had a quarrel. Yet he watched zeal
ously his rights and protected him ,"if
ably In the flashes of wit that Iss-
ed between court and counsel he was
ever ready. When the crowd laughe i
as it frequently did at his own and
counsels' sallies, his smile was unaf-
fected and sympathetic. He let it be
known early, however, that he should
scrutnize the answers and affidavits
closely and if he found any matter
therein which rejected upon him and
which was not responsive to the rule
he would consider such matter as m
additional and direct contempt. The
efficacy of this move is shown by the
fact that a certain sensational affidavit
which had been obtained was not used
in support of the answers as had been
intended.
Judge PEBBLES rule against the
members of the Robson bar is the in
ception of a proceeding that will
make a potent page in the history OF
the State.

Salisbury, N. c., May 17.-Carpen-

builder. and contractor of this city,
went out on strike ycfterday rather
than handle lumber and material fur
nished by Mr.. G. A. Rice, a non union

BILE grew out of an action taken sever
al months ago by the Carpenters and
JoinerS union to the effect that Mr..
Rice, being a non-union dealer. had
been blacklisted and placed on the
unfair list, and that no union carpen
ter would hereafter work such mate
rial as he might furnish. An action
was brought against the union TO"
conspiracy but was subsequently
quashed by Judge Justice at the pres
ent tenn of court.
In Rowan Superior court here yes
terday Judge Justice granted per-
manent injunction against kluttz Il
Randleman from further prosecuting
Frank A. Page in the Circuit court at
Richmond, Va. The case is of pecul-

ployees, whose pay checks have been
attached in Virginia, are involved and
much legal advice has been sought in
the matter.

Japanese Army Sweeps
Onward in Three
Columns.
A GREAT BATTLE NEAR
The Plan of the Russians is to Fight
at Hal Cheng, Fall Back to Lao
Yang and if Defeated There
Make No Stand at
Mukden.
(By the Associated Press. }

Mukden, May 16.-The fighting line
is steadily nearing Mukden, where
Viceroy Alexieff's headquarters still
remain. Little reliable information
can be obtained by the newspaper
correspondents who are forbidden to
proceed to the scene of operations,
and official information is withheld
until advices are sent to st. Paters-
burg. 1t is now known, however, that
the Japanese are almost within strik-
ing distance of the Russians and that
the forces protecting Lao Yang are
stretching eastward from the railroad
along the Maontan mountain range.
The Japanese are advancing i'll three
columns and are now north of Stu
Yen and Feng- -Wang-Cheng. Tive
columns are reported to be working
further to the northward with the OBJ
ject of turning the Russian position
and advancing upon Mukden.
Numerous small engagements have
been fought, but no decisive action has
taken place. Port Arthur is now
. completely isolated by the japanese
expedition at Polandien.
The Japanese are now operating in
a rugged country, well suited to the
Russian defence; but north of Liao
Yang to Mukden, the country is a
fiat plain, intersected by rivers. The
weather recently has been hot and
dry, but the rain which has fallen in
the past two days has made the roads
almost impossible for vehicles, and
when the rainy season begins at the
end of June, this plain will be con-
verted into a morass. This condition
probably viii result in the practical
suspension of operations

The concentration of the Russian

safely use this nort as a base and to
abandon most of the land Transports
