Hon. w. F. Rucker makes his an
nouncement for the House of Repre-
sentatives this week. He represented
the county in the Legislature of 1908,
and appeals to his record in juStifica
ton of his claims. He is a rising
young attorney and secured the nomi-
nation two years ago against three
very strong men and made the cam
paign against the strongest man the
Republican party could name, defeat
ing him by over $50 votes. Mr..
Rucker is very modest in his claims.
He simply wants to give his friends
an opportunity to endorse him for
second term if such a course meets
their wishes; if defeated he will pull
off his gloves and help his opponent
who may be more successful over Ma
JUDAS Hill. In the language of
friend He never hickers" when it
comes to voting the Democratic ticket

There is a rumor to the effect that
President Roosevelt has given out the
word that Cheatham must be one of
the North Carolina delegates in the
national convention, and if this is the
case, what will be the attitude of the
members of the State Convention, es-
pecially those holding good positions
by the grace of Roosevelt? This is a
question that is said to be agitating
the minds of quite few North Caro-
lima Republicans. The non office
holding element will be free to act in
dependently, but some of the others
may feel a delicacy in going against
the wishes of the President. Winston
