Thinks ". j Cooke
The Man of The Hour
continued from page l

Democratic column,
Mr.. Crawford several times
redeemed the district; Gudger
has the honor, too, of redeeming
it in 1902. In our opinion this is
no time for either Mr.. Gudger or
Mr.. Crawford to lead the forces
in this district. Mr.. Crawford,
the most beloved Democrat in
the district, is not offering him
self; Mr.. Gudger should not
have done so.
Cooke and his friends for
years supported Mr.. Crawford
and for years Cooke and his
friends supported Mr.. Gudger,
and it was the devout wish of
the district Democracy, so far as
we have been able to ascertain,
thaEMr. Cooke should be given a
clear field this time. We know
that Hon. William ]. Cooke of
Buncombe will defeat John G.
Grant.
First: Because it would be
his first race and victory has
usually perched upon>the banner
of the First Race Man."
Thomas D. Johnston. Mr.. Cookies
uncle, was elected the first time
he ran; Ewart the first time he
ran; Crawford the first time he
ran; Pearson the first time he
ran; Moody, the first time he
ran; Gudger the first time he
ran, and Grant the first time he
ran.
Second: Because, the press
of the district, both Democratic
and Independent, with the single
exception of the Andrews Sun,
published at Andrews, N. c., in
Cherokee county, is clamorous
for Mr.. Cookies nomination. If
nominated the district would be
practically as a unit for him.
The people of the district do not
attend public speakings as they
once did-they rely upon the in
tegrity of the press-and if
named, thelpress of theI district
would put up a fight for him such
as has never been seen in this
district before.
Third: Because Mr.. Cookies
campaign for the nomination has
been clean. He can look into
the eye of every convention dele
gate and ask his support for he
has not stopped to conquer
This means a united Democracy
This means everything. Not in
the entire district has been
heard a single unkind word from

or any of his friends. AL
glory to such a man. He will be
nominated and elected. An
anonymous letter is being circu-
lated to the effect that the De
mocracy of Mcdowell county is
for JIM. Gudger. We boldly de-
clare that this county is for
Hon. William J. Cooke of Bun
