indicated that they will appeal TO
the independents, and since the
size of this group shifts from time

measure sentiment on the question

is for the time being, at least, ahead
Of the rest Of the field.
AStute folks who keep one ear
constantly to the ground and the
other attuned TO catch the faintest
sound wave in the ether profess 10
see Z rising tide of Horton sentiment:
and these same sages add that such
gains as Horton is making are for
the most part at the expense Of
what had been considered potential
BrOught0n strength.
This week will, in all probability,
he one OF the most crucial of the en-
tire campaign. Today, for example,
Maxwell is making his first frankly
and openly political speech in which
he for the very first time appeals to
the voters to support him for Gov
crnor. Heretofore almost all of the
candidates have spoken under
auspices which inhabited too much
political atmosphere; but from now
ON it's going TO be an open and above
board scramble for office.
Tom Cooper is taking to the road
in his sound truci-and it ought not
to be long before it can be decided
whether the Wilmington mayor is
Just another lad named Thomas or
dangerous contender for the gov
ernorShip. If he can once start a
wave of enthusiasm he may go
places in the campaign.
Paul Grady's campaign still seems
on the grapevine side and if there
is anywhere in the state any senti-
ment for him, it doesn't get express
sion in Raleigh.
Lee Gravely, a man of magnetic
personality, radiates optimism when
ever he has anything to say about
the campaign, but hard-headed and
hearted fellows who have followed
politics for years say that he hasn't
yet generated anything approaching
fever heat in any section.
And so the campaign swings into
April with the pOpulace quite I'M
excited and with Broughton, Horton
and Maxwell still odds-on choices to
furnish both candidates in the Sec
ond primary.
