Caldwell Coalition Ticket Is Selected
Lenoir, N. C.—The nomination of a coalition ticket at the Republican county convention here Saturday afternoon definitely raised 1928 issues and sent the county campaign off to a flying start. E. Garland Suttlemire, who was elected to the House of Representatives two years ago as an independent Democratic candidate with Republican indorsement, received a similar indorsement Saturday for Clerk of the Court to oppose V. D. Guire, Democratic incumbent, and Miss Toy Cloer, elected in 1928 as the fusion candidate for Register of Deeds, was renominated today to succeed herself.
The remainder of the ticket, all straight Republicans, is as follows: Robey C. Robbins, for House of Representatives; C. M. Rader, incumbent, for Sheriff; Fred Roberts for Coroner; Harris Kent, for Surveyor; and D. C. Hickman of Granite Falls, Herman Payne of Lenoir, and G. L. Austin of Lenoir, for County Commissioners.
Frank C. Patton, Republican candidate for Solicitor of the Sixteenth Judicial District against L. S. Spurling, Democratic incumbent, delivered the keynote address.
