Death Of Mr.. Lyon.

After a long illness, a pro.
tracted combat with a stealthly
disease, Mr.. J. Ed Lyon died
Friday at noon at his home on
North Mangum street.
The health Of Mr.. Lyon had
been i'll for months, a year or
more. Early in 1907 he moved
his family to High Point and
about two months ago returned
to his old home and for the past
several weeks he had steadily
declined with his family about
him.
Mr.. Lyon was born in Gran
vile county nearly seventy years
ago. When Durham was a young

Death Of Mr.. Riqsbee.

The death of Clifton Rigsbee,
who was so dreadfully injured
ten days ago, occurred Sunday
afternoon at the Watts hospital
where he had been taken in the
hope of improvement.
The young man, who was q
and the father of a little girl
eight months old, was riding on
q wagon loaded with telephone
poles and fell on a spike that al
most went through his body. He
suffered terribly, but there was
at one time some hope for him.
Later he grew worse and it be-
came known several days ago
that he could not live.
The funeral services were
held yesterday afternoon from
the residence of his father. John
J. Rigsbee, on Spring street. The
Knights of Maccabees took
charge of the funeral, a beauti-
full ceremony it is, too, and bur-
led their first brother in this city
under the solumn formula. Rev.
c. ]. Thompson conducted the
services and a large number of
his friends attended.
Besides wife and child, faith
er and other relatives, young
Rigsbee left friends all over the
city who are saddened by an end
so pathetic as his.
The Durham recorder. [volume] (Durham, N.C.) 1879-19??, 1908-05-12

leaving plenty to support the de-
clining years of his faithful wife.
Besides her, there are seven
children, two brothers and two
sisters, and numerous Durham
relatives. The family is aifinely
connected one, a race that con-
quers obstacle wherever they
may be.
The death of Mr.. Lyon removes
a mason of high standing, a fra
ternalist who lived his obliga-
tons in his daily life. Rev. G.
T. Adams conducted the funeral
services from the home at 3
o'clock Sunday afternoon.

In stringent times a great
deal is said about debt paying
and how careless people are, and
one thing is noticeable: the little
fellow that owes a few dollars is
pushed much more than the man
that has or is supposed to have
plenty of money and owes large
bills.

THERE is a good deal Of talk
about carnivals, circuses and ex.
cursions taking money away
from a community that should
be left there, and the first sugges.
ton is TO pass a law. The pass.
ing a law business along such
lines has been over worked, and
unless men naturally refrain
from patronizing such things,
there is little hope of doing away
with them. The plea is heard
by collectors of bills that money
goes into such things that should
go toward the payment of some
debt. Every man should pay his
debts, but the refusal of credit
to such as will not wilIdo more To
that end than all the laws that
can ever be passed.

Delegates Elected 10 The judicial,
Congressional and State Convention.

The county Democratic con.
vention met in the court house
Saturday at noon for the purpose
of ratifying the action of the
primary vote of the previous
Saturday.
Short speeches were made by
several prominent Democrats
present while the committee,
consisting of one from each vot-
ing precinct, were out making
up the list of delegates to the
several conventions.
Resolutions endorsing the
course of Senator Overman, Gov
ernor Glenn and advocating the
election of Jones Fuller as So
licitor were offered and carried
without a dissenting voice.
The committee recommended
delegates to the State, Judicial
and Congressional conventions
to carry out the wish expressed
at the primaries.
The session of the convention
lasted about one and a half hours
and an adjournment was taken
with the best of feeling and all
feeling sure of success in the
fall election.

COUNTY OFFICERS.

Before we are fully aware of
it men will be announcing the
fact that they want to serve the
people in some official capacity.
In view of the fact that a Demo-
cratic nomination virtually means
election, it is we'll that we should
consider the question we'll be-
fore we participate in the pri-
maries.
In the past few weeks local af-
fairs have not claimed attention
because the campaign of candi-
dates for State and National Of
fees has been on. So far as this
county is concerned this has
been settled.
1t is not our purpose to speak
for or against any man in such a
time, but we wish to call the at
tention Of voters to a few things
about which they may think:
First, it is the duty of every
citizen to take part in the cleo
ton of our officers, and do what
they can to secure thesbest men
possible.
Second. while it is not the
christian spirit to hold a mans
part against him, it is the only
means we have in judging how
they will act in the future. and
any man that comes up that has
not heretofore given heed to the
wishes of the people should not
receive your support. Every
effort should be made to select
men that will serve the best in
terests of the people that elect
them.
Another matter that usually
hobs up during election time:
The friends of some candidate
will say: Don't vote for that
man; while he is the best man
for the place, you stand no show
of electing him, and you will
onlb lose your VOTE" Don't let
such assertions fool you, but
when you believe you have found
a clean, honest man, vote for
him and register your approval
Of his course If he only gets your
vote. There are plenty Of good
men 10 fill the county offices and
represent this county in the
Legislature that will honor the
position they occupy, and there
is no need of accepting a make
shift. Look around and select
your man for the Office and don't
sit still and wait for the profess
sional Office seeker to come along
and get the place.

him, and he says he was delayed ten
minutes by the incident, the steam
roller was not ditched at all, but was
simply stuck in a soft spot in the mid
die of the road, and getting it out was
simply a matter of throwing some old
lumber under the wheels and backing
on to the solid road elf any of the
