A GREAT SPEECH

We say, without fear of success
full contradiction, that the speech
here last night at the Red Mems
Memorial Exercises, by Hon. D. L.
James, of Greenville, taken as a
whole, was the finest ever delivered
in this city. 1t was great effort,
abounding in beautiful flights of
oratory and full of sublime thoughts;
pretty word paintings, touched
by the brush of the artist-orator and
finished in the most beautiful life
colors, portraying the great and
noble. principles of Fraternity. It
was a gem of a speech in the truest
sense. and all those who were fortu-
nate to hear it are loud in their
praises of same. We hope to be
able to publish most Of it in our
next issue
The music by the choir was of a
fine order and very favorably COM
mented upon
Mr.. Leary's speech was also very
fine and highly complimented.

and Mr. James is on the Board of

HOUSE VOTES AGAINST AYcOCK
Ant" Fight Hard-High Pointers
Lend Their Aid-The Vote

Il !. 81 : X
By a vote of So to As the. house
Thursday night killed on second
| reading Representative Colds bill to
create Aycock county oute:f portions
| of Guilford, Davidson and Randolph
after a lengthy debate.
Representative Gold offered to in
sert amendments to the bill allowing
the territory to be included to vote
as units on the proposition.
Mr.. Gold opened the debate in
favor of the new county, arguing
that it was due the people in that
territory politically economically and
in justice. He. went over the same
ground as taken by him in his speech
before the committee.
Representative Justice followed
with reasons against creating the
new county. He thought it would
be paying High Point higher til
butte to say that its growth was in
dependent of courthouse. He
spoke of eight trains each way, of
the good road between the cities, of
automobiles passing, and declared
there was no occasion for the new
county. Mr.. Justice said that its crea
lion would injure every interest in
Guilford county, and referred to Il e.
splendid constructive work of Dir.
Gordon, of the jamestown section. 4
He saic that if left to the people of
the communities to vote on as units.
they would Bury it. JMr. Justice
read letters from E. A. Snow and E.
d. Steele, Of High Point, against it,
and iDtimated that somebody in High
Point wanted to sell some lots.
8 Mr.. Ross. of Randolph, opposed
the bill, Mr.. Young, of Vance, ad-
vocated it. Mr.. Gordon, of Gull
ford, spoke against the bill, declar-
ing that it would cripple the magni-
ficient school of Jamestown, besides
injuring the other schools in the
county.
Mr.. Mintz, of Wayne, who voted
20 report the bill favorably, declared
that he, could not vote for it now
that he had learned that county
bearing the name of -Aycock would
send Republican to the assembly.
Mf. Weatherspoon, of Scotland, ad.
vocated the bill.
Coming back with a rejoinder Mr..
Gold declared impassionately that
he was confronted with two things
that panied him; one being that Mr.
Mintz should change his opinion after
finding merit in the proposition SIM
ply because the county might go
Republican at some time, and the
other being the fact that the editor
of Charity and Children might in
fluence the vote. Has the time
come when freedom of thought can
be crushed?" exclaimed Mr Gold
is the legislature going to turn down
a proposition simply because it might
90 Republican? Who is here that
can say with any degree of certainty
the complexion of his county two
years from now?" He declared that
i.e voted to condemn the Charity
and Children editorial because he
believed the. house fair, and he did
not want Archibald Johnson's posi-
ton to influence anybody.

"Aycock county is dead as Atills,
the Hun, but to bury it and destroy
the slaves who bore tito its final
resting place may prove more OF
a proposition Greensboro News.
The unkindness cut of them all.
High Point is not worrying in the
least and it looks like those VINO

afford not to worry also. Time will

The party was composed of An

Walter Barnes, A. l.. Lehman and
IraI l.. Smith, commissioners-alect,
all iof whom, will assume their Off

by Fairmont is much the same as
that OF ParIersburg, only there arr
but four commissioners. with the
mayor, instead of five, as is the case
here. Each commissioner will be
the head of department, as here,
and these departments have been al

were not given out here, as they
have not been made public in Fair

found it manifested in highly eff
