Carr for Senate and wild political talk in Watauga
The Watauga Democrat runs a long card by Col. Julian B Carr of Durham announcing his candidacy for the United States Senate to support Marion Butler in the November primaries. The paper defends Carr as a steadfast Democrat and a strong force against negro rule, while also criticizing Col. Blackburn and Judge Councill’s court charge as a mountain highlight. Court notes recounts sessions, verdicts, and sentences from Watauga Superior Court, with multiple cases disposed and others continued, and weighs Blackburn’s claims and the racial issue in North Carolina politics.
