local team should gain some very pro-

A Rabbit-Snake Story.
To the Editor of The Robesonian:

To the Editor of The Robesonian:
Did any reader of The Robe
sOnian ever hear of a rabbit and
snake fighting? l heard of one; |
never saw it. 1t happened not
far from Yorkville, Bladen coun-
ty. This was the way heard it.:
A rabbit jumped out of the
bushes in the road and had not
been there long when a black
snake came crawling up to the
rabbit and when he got in about
two feet of the rabbit the rabbit
jumped on him, catching the
snake up in his front feet and
killing him with his hind feet.

more about this can find out same

be foreign to the sturdy charac-
ter and justice-loving people who
compose the Democratic party of

We would like to see every one

that cannot be done, let us come
as near to making it unanimous

counties are doing it. If we
stand by our neighbors we can
not go far wrong. Let us stand
or fall with them. Office-Win-
ming or Office holding is not the
only or the main thing in this
contest. Some men who have
made this life time business,
regardless of the part from
which they seek Office may and
doubtless do regard it as the
main thing. But this is not the
case, we are proud to say, with
the great majority Of the people
of Catawba county. Locke Craig,
man who has spent his life
fighting in the ranks for his par
, ty and for the supremacy of the
great white race, is now stand
ing in the breach, as much on
the solicitation of the wisest and
: most trusted leaders of the party
as from his own volition against
the grasping ambition of a fami
ly dynasty.

When Mr.. Craig, a few months

came very much incensed that
