Butler Returns to Boost Republican Campaign in North Carolina
Raleigh gossip centers on a rumored Marion Butler return to aid the Republican ballot in 1916. Democrats fear a Butler comeback would wreck their slate, while Republicans deny or downplay the tale as party infighting and machine politics. Also noted are Manly W. Tyree's funeral, photographer and ex-presidency roles, and Governor Craig's push to scrutinize railroad rate hikes.
