THE Old Man. came in last
Saturday afternoon late and be-
gan at once to complain that he
was tired, but said that he just
had to stay and see the conven-
ton out:
II am just from the conven-
tion, where we had a lively time
for more than three hours. /
tell you that convention was well
worth attending. 1t was a good
ly crowd of representative men
of Durham county more than |
expected to see from the interest
manifested in the primaries the
Saturday before. The nomina-
tions for the county officers NOV
ed along nicely until it came to
the point where the county COM
missioners were to be named.
The naming of these men created
more interest than all the rest Of
the nominations up to that time.
Finally after much balloting, five
good men were chosen and the
ticket looks good to most Demo-
Gratis.
'"fhe real demonstration came
when Col. Benehan Cameron
arose and in well chosen words
nominated General Julian S.
Carr for the legislature. After
the hollering was over Mr.. Carr
arose and thanked all for the
honor, but asked that Mr.. Braw-
ley be placed on the ticket. After
a little speech-making, however.
the nomination Of Mr.. Carr was
made unanimous. For one | am
Of the opinion that the Democra-
tic party and Durham county
should feel honored that General
Carr should accept the nomina-
ton and represent Durham coun-
ty in the next General Assembly.
The convention adjourned in
good humor and the townships of
the county at once went into the
nomination Of magistrates and a
constable. This was expected
to precipitate trouble in Durham
township and doubtless would if
it had not been for the fact that
Mr.. Raymond Hall. the nominee
of the first ballot. was the proud
father Of twins about a week old
and the news began to become
known.
