Everett for Lieut. Governor.

The following news item ap.
peared in the Raleigh News &
Observer of Wednesday:
mot the least interesting of the many
political developments and booms of one
sort and another growing out of the 1919
session of the General Assembly is the
likelihood that Representative w. N.
Everett, of Rockingham, will announce
himself for the race for Lieutenant Gov
ernorship.
"For some time, friends have been
urging the Rockingham man to announce.
He has not yet made up his mind fully to
do so, it must be admitted, but just as
strongly, it is asserted, he has not yet de-
clined to consider the matter. In fact, it
is understood that with the wind-up of
the biennial Legislative grind, he is giving
the matter serious attention. Il
Ellis friends are urging his candidacy
on tire ground that he is business man
and the business men of North Carolina
are due recognition.
This was Mr.. Everett's second term in
the General Assembly. He led the fight
for suffrage in the House, worked hard
on educational measures and was prom
inent member of the appropriations COM
mittee, besides the general legislation in
which his voice was heard"
