Walker Would Limit Spending If Given Edge of $200,000

Republican nominee Johnny Walker would cap campaign spending at 250000 if opponent Jim Hunt limits his to 350000. He argues a spending cap is fair given Democratic dominance in North Carolina politics, amid a 70 year party control and just 20 percent Republican registration.

Luck Of Irish Run Out In Texas For Five Mum

York residents recount a Texas case involving five Irish Americans held for contempt after refusing to testify to a federal grand jury probing arms purchases in Dallas and Fort Worth. The group, the Fort Worth Five, faces release only if they purge contempt or the grand jury disbands. Nine days after one, Tierney, Laffey, Crawford, Reilly, and Morahan remained jailed despite immunity promises. The case drew national attention with opposition from U.S. lawmakers and calls for inquiry. Tierney, jailed June 20, went on a brief hunger strike, while others prepared to testify or endure further detainment.
