POLITICS AS USUAL?
ANY
Democrat in Bertie couny, two years ago, if asked what was the paramount issue
in Bertie county and in North Carolina, would have, without any hesitation,
answered; “The maintenance of the present system of county government.” Now
these same men, Democrats then, Third party people now, speak lightly of the
present system of county government and are running candidates against
Democrats pledged to its maintenance, …
The
Thirdites say that public lands, transportation and money are the only
questions to be talked in the campaign. There is not a foot of government land
in Bertie county. There is only a small portion of the county crossed by
railroads. Nobody in the county has any money. If we confine ourselves to the
text of the Thirdities we will talk about things we haven’t got and if we
follow their advice, which we will never have.
