"WETS" WIN IN DEL NORTE

WELD WIN In DEL NUKE
For the first time in it's history,
Del Norte voted Tuesday on the
question of becoming "anti-saloon
territory" The result was l54
yes, 1872 no. The town will there
fore remain wet.
The candidates in favor of the
saloons were elected by majorities
ranging from 80 to 96, while the
majority for saloons was only 3S,
which would indicate that the can
didates on the Citizens ticket
were more popular than their plat
form.
Both sides worked like Turks
from the opening to the close of
the polls and yet only about Is
per cent of the registered voters
took enough interest to 60 to the
polls
The drys are very much en-
couraged and say they will carry
on the fight until they win out.

STATE RETAIL MERCHANTS
MEETS HERE IN 1911

To Mr.. F. s. Wetmur AMI Mr.
j. @. Morrow belongs the credit.
They went to Salisbury armed to
the teeth with advertising matter
and figures about Hendersonville.
Mr.. Morrow really placed Hender
sonville in nomination before the
convention met, by placing copies
of the beautiful town booklet in
every seat In the convention hall.
1t was warm IN the hall, very
warm. and when the delegates
glanced through the book they
were impressed wit hthe mountain
scenery, cool springs and shady
hooks so attractively shown. In
fact, the more they studied about
Crystal Springs in Laurel Park
the more convinced they were that
Hendersonville wa sthe place for
their next convention and they so
decided.
Messrs. Morrow and Wetmur
attended the convention as dele
gates from the HendersonvilIe
Merchants Association and landed
the next convention for this to ,yn
in spite of a stiff fight for the
honor by Raleigh and other tcwGs.

where he will remain until con
gress meets in December.
While Mr.. Grant enjoyed Wash

beat a a-mile.
Mr.. Grant is receiving the hear
ty congratulations of his friends

very liberal appropriation of

made: t'The claims Of Mr.. Gudger
that he will be nominated on the
first ballot are not borne out by
the returns received from the diff
ferent precincts of the district.
Mr. -Gudger has certainly not more
than ITO votes In the convention,
whereas $50 votes are needed for
nomination. From whom will
Mr.. Gudger receive the votes nee
essary for his Nomination. This
is the question. 1t is convention

a convention fight and will be con-
tested to the finish.

Continuing Mr.. Cookies friend
said: "The reports given to the
press by Mr.. Gudger's friends in
clude only the reports of those
precincts which are for Mr.. Gud-
ger. For instance, the reports
from Polk county give only Tryon
township, which is for Gudger,
and do not include the other
townships all of which are for
Mr.. Cooke. Mr.. Gudger is slight
ly in the lead, but Mr.. Cooke will
be nominated in the convention. :"
Mr.. Hewitt's Position.
Regarding Mr.. F. r. Hewitt s
chances fo rthe democratic nom
ination for congress, his mana
ger, Mr.. Il. M. Bourne, said last
night that he had no statement

With several precincts yet to be

their chances for the nomination
are good. Hon. j. M. Gudger as

votes secured already to nominate
him on the first ballot, while Hon.
William j. Cooke disputes this
claim, and while admitting that
Gudger has the lead, declares that
the balance of power is held by
the Hewitt, Galert and Moore
votes, and that the nomination
will have to be fought out on the
floor of the congressional conven-
ton, Mr., Gudger claims barely
enough votes to nominate and
while Mr.. Cooke does not claim
but 90 votes as certain for him on
the first ballot, he maintains that
there are enough not bound to Mr..
Gudger to give him the nomina-
ton in the final testof strength.
