WHO'S Who IN
THE PRIMARY
Here Are The State, District
and County Candidates to
Be Voted on Saturday

Generally speaking, there
seems to be little excitement in
politics thruout the counties i'll
Northeastern North Carolina,
and many county offices are
going begging. Some of
them are desirable offices from
a remunerativc point Of view,
while others are less desirable.
In. several counties. the office Of
Representative and auditor, or
treasurer. have not been contested,
and Il seems the universal rule for
n weak contest for the Office of
county commissioner which Is an
office Of great Importance to the
welfare of the county.
In PasquOiank the office Of Re-
rordcr. or Trial Justice went by
default Ia i. G. Sawyer, who ut
'hr present time Is prosecuting at
rorncy. While 4. j. Markham did
announce his candidacy. hc failed TO
qualify on the last date, and Mr..
Sawyer stands nominated. The
Republican strength being negligi-
hlr in the county, the Democratic
nomination Is equivalent to clcc-
tion.
J. Henry Leroy Jr., one of the
rising young lawyers of Elizabeth
city stands nominated for the of
flee of Prosecuting Attorney for
pasquotank. He had no opponent,
and his name will not go on the
ticket.
&. &. Pritchard had no opposition
to succeed himself uS County Audi
tor and consequently he will get
another term, and his name will
not appear om tn" ticket.
One contest in the county is bc.
tween Geo. W. Brothers. the present
incumbent, and j. &. Spence for the
office Of Register Of Deeds. Mr..
brothers has held the office two
terms. Mr.. Spence held the Office
ten years, before hr retired several
years ago to enter business.
