AN APPRECIATED LETTER.
Raleigh, N. 1906,
Mr. J. Editor,
Greenville, N. C.
My Dear Sir
The editors of the Democratic
newspapers have, as always,
again contributed more to the
success of the party than any or
all other factors concerned.
I am impressed with the fact
that you have displayed during
the campaign just ended even
greater interest and a
a wider and more potent
than ever before.
As chairman of the executive
committee, I would be remiss in
my duty to close this campaign
without a grateful
Knowing, as I do, the many
dangers that beset us, I am able
to say that the party may well
feel proud of the general result
in the State. We have polled
our vote, and have said
that is and
shall remain Democratic.
Again thanking you personally
and. assuring you of my high
esteem, I am, Sincerely yours,
