the labor unions in the city protested
against the Presidents visiting the

DAVIDSON COUNTY REPUBLI-
CANS

Harmony seems to have prevailed
at the meeting of the Davidson Coun-
ty Republican Convention which was
held last Saturday in the hall of the
Twin Building on Cedar street. Prac-
tically every precinct in the county
and every ward in the city had full
delegation. 1t would appear that a
deal of attention has been given to
the coming campaign, and especially
the republican primary, which is to
be held at an early date. The con-
vention was on the order of a love
feast affair. The selecting of a
chairman and other officials met
practically no opposition. The dele
gates to the State Congressional and
Judicial Convention were selected.
1t is freely predicted that the time
is ripe for the republicans to put out
a full ticket, beginning with the
county officials. Prominent men are
discussing the advisiability of this
step and it is thought that the moguls
in the party will adopt such course.
The county failed, however, to go on
record as endorsing any particular
republican candidate. The fact that
a large Negro delegation was present
and goodly number of Negroes were
selected as delegates is considered as
oil on the troubled waters. It was
not noticeable, however, that any
stringencies in action or treatment
were undergone by the Negro dele
gates at the convention, as all seemed
to be bent upon whatever was best
for the interest of the party. It is
said that no special instructions were
given the delegates who represent
the county in the different conven-
tions.
