Attends The Republican Convention
Saturday Afternoon.
The Republicans Put Out Ticket and
Elect Delegates N. HOltOn
Makes 4 Speech.

/
Of what had been transpiring
since be came in last week.
II was here last Saturday
morning early because | wanted
to buy something at the opening
| Of the new ten cent store. / ex-
pected that it would be mostly
among the women that bargains
were to be had. but thought pos
sibly . man would stand some
show Of securing something that
would be worth his time. How
ever, / was disappointed, for the
women were SO thick that ! stood
no show whatever. The wonder
to me that people will do such
things to save ten cents and then
turn right around and spend a
dollar for something that is not
worth two cents. / saw women
at this store trying to save in
purchases what they believed
would amount in the aggregate
about 50 cents that would not
| hesitate to spend ten or fifteen
dollars for a hat. and others that
would spend $50 on a summer
outing. But when it comes to
chasing bargains no special class
is guilty. but all kinds of people
go in for all they are worth.
Il attended the Republican
convention Saturday and was
! mach Interested in the proceed-
insy. Many things not on the
| program occurred to furnish
amusement
When someone suggested that
a certain prominent Republican
should be called upon for q
speech, he remarked that only
newspaper men and contractors
were allowed that privilege,
whereupon a by-stander remark
cd that he must have been at
tending the caucuses Of the dele
gates to the county convention.
From the first it was evident
that the Morehead crowd were
in the majority, and that they
were determined to have their
own way with anything that
came up. The first vote, which
was test Of the strength Of the
forces showed that the Morehead
crowd had about two-thirds Of
the voting strength Of the con-
ventlon.
The real business Of the con-
vention, as those in charge made
it, occurred just after Mr.. A. Z.
Holton had made a speech. and
both delegates and visitors began
to sit up and take notice.
In wandering around Dur
ham, seeing some Of the improve
ments the Civic League caused
to be made, | have wondered
that they have failed to notice to
many unsightly signs that
stretch across the sidewalks.
Some Of the merchants have
signs that really serve their pur-
pose and they are an ornament
TO the store, bat along Main
street there are many signs that
extend across the sidewalk and
besides being dangerous they are
very unsightly. But like many
questions that arise and would
be q decided improvement to the
appearance of the city, this leads
to the one conclusion Of what are
you going to do about 1t.
Il don't know much about the
facts In the case, but It does
seem that the arrest Of Mr..
Rufus Massey for indecent ex-
posure. was stretching the mat.
ter a little. From the accounts
Of the matter in the papers. Mr..
Massey was in his room on
church street and thoughtlessly

REPUBLICAN COUNTY CONVEAHOH.
Steam Roller SQuashes Out The Dun
can Delegates and Goes Solid
For nOrehead.

tUI Uul 6uG0us
Durham County Republicans
met in convention, Saturday. and
gave the solid county vote for
state chairman of the party, to
John Motley Morehead.
While such a statement is cas-
lily made. the bringing about of
the vote was after much parley-
| ing, and considerable steam roll
ling. The much harped on "har-
mony" program had seemingly
been forgotten, as republicans
who had fought many campaigns
hand in hand, were arrayed in
opposition, and used language to
one another not such as political
brothers should.
Chairman Giles called the con-
venticn to order and in a brief
manner stated the object Of the
call, and reviewed the achieve
ments of Durham republicans for
the past several years. He then
called r. H. Rigsbee to the chair,
Temporarily, and H. A. Neal was
made secretary. The temporary
chairman then named a creden-
tial committee. A motion was
made to elect Mr.. Rigsbee pre-
siding officer, and the first test
Of the convention came in this
vote. N. Underwood was nomi-
mated by q Duncan man, then the
vote came. 1t showed that Rigs
bee had 53.5 and Underwood 2S.5
clearly indicating the majority
of Morehead men.
District Attorney A. E. Holton
was escorted to the stand at this
point and delivered a speech that
sounded good to republican ears.
He spoke briefly of what the
party is doing and discussed the
issues Of the day. At the con-
jtlusion Of Mr.. Holton's speech,
1.-THE business Of the convention
was resumed. The committee
for Recommending delegates to
the state convention reported,
and a motion was made to accept
the report. A fight was made by
the Duncan crowd for an amend
ment to the motion but the More
head men won. On the con-
gressional delegation were
some good Duncan men, but they
promptly withdrew their names,
declaring they would not be
treated that way.
Col. j. C. Angler furnished the
oratory for the Duncan crowd.
He declared that if the steam
roller did not run over him he
wanted to make objection to that
delegation. He stated that he
favored Morehead for Congress
and Duncan for state chairman,
or if Morehead would not run for
congress he support him for
chairman. He wanted the dele
gates of Greensboro to vote ac-
cording to per cent each man
had in the county convention.
Col. Angler was powerful with
bis speech. but could not avoid
the steam roller which was con-
tinually being passed over him.
It will be remembered that he,
together with Mr.. Giles bolted
their regular convention two
years ago, and that their dele
CATION was seated at the state
convection, but at this time Mr..
Giles has joined the Rigsbee
crowd, while Col. Angler holds
on to the opposition.
Mr.. Angler took occasion to
say that If Mr.. Giles would pay
more attention to getting re-
publicans register and pay poll
tax, and fighting the democrats
that the party would be stronger
than by sacrificing it to More
head.
The Morehead crowd testified
that they had tried to get the
Duncan crowd to take five Of the
seventeen votes. but that they
(the Duncan crowd had refused
