living man that the Democrat,
of Richmond county ought to b.
willing to hear and support, tina
man is Cam Morrison"
The big audience, which com
pletely filled the courthouse, the
enthusiastic and hilarious ap.
plause, the hundreds who shook
the hands of the speaker, pledg.
ing him their support, were de-
clared to show that Richmond
county stands firmly and solidly
behind Cam Morrison for gov

county by an overwhelming ma
jority. ., ,... ....
Mr.. Morrison mentioned brief.
ly the political turmoil in Rich
mond county in the nineties, and
many of his old comrades who
fought under his leadership then
smiled and nodded their approval
today when he pictured some of

State for the white race. There
were also present today the sons
OF many of those who fought un-

some days, and their loyalty and
devotion to Cam Morrison hasI
been handed down to them as if
by tradition.
While Mr.. Morrison agrees
lively attacked the platforms as

to that of Mr.. Page, es-
oecially dealing with the plank
IN the relations between labor
and capital, in which the Biscoe

charges constituting a first lien;

dividends, and all profits above

That utterance, declared the
Charlotte man, involves the
most dangerous assault upon ba-
&c American and democratic
principles ever attempted IN the
arty's history" He declared
that If this principle

If the young man is tough, he has

be a constant worry. after marriage.
Besides, he would not be desirable as
