OUR RALEIGH LETTER

rects of the national Democratic
candidates have been vastly I'M
proved within the last two Or
three weeks. That the league Of
nations is close to the hearts Of
the great majority Of North Car
olina people and that Candidate
Harding has alienated many vo-
ters from his party by his party
by' his ~4ffere recent attitude Of
open hostility to the league and
opposition to the ratification Of
& peace treaty, even with resesr-
vatiens.
AS to Morrison and the State
ticket, they all, with one accord,
acclaim their admiration for the
Democratic candidate for COVER
nor. who ost Of them have come
to know better than they did IN
the days preceding the State pri-
a;ry. It is the concensus Of opln-
ion that the Democratic majority
will be, proport'ionately, the lar
gest ever polled for the State
ticket. ) There is but one qualifi-
cation to this expression and
that is that it depends, of course
largely on the registration Of
the white women, especially in
the eastern and central countries
The women Of the west are lar
gely registered already.
