COUNTY EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE THINKS IT. HAS NO AUTHORITY. Tho County Executive Committee met last Thursday to consider the election contest between W. M. Brown and E. E. Vernor, candidates tur oleotion to the Bouse of Representatives from this county. Charges were preferred by Mr. Brown against Mr. Vernor for using money in the campaigu for the alleged purpose of influencing: votes. Mr. Ver nor contributed 95 for the purpose of assisting in the ereotion of a new ohuroh at New Hope. He is also charged with having bought, or offering to buy, melons at Holly Springs, and these two acta were alleged to have been for the pur pose of influencing voten. After considerable discussion at the Executive Committee moating, it was de cided that the committee bad no juris dintion, tbe matter being a proper ques tion for the courts to pass upon. Upon the announcement of this decis ion by the County Exeoutive Committee, Mr. Brown gave notice of appeal to the State Executive Committee, which met in Columbia yesterday. Tho contest is regretted by friends of j both parties throughout the county, and regardless of their opinions all feel that it is a very unfortunate termination of the reoent primaries. Mayor Jas. Thompson, member of the State Exeoutive Committee .from this county, left yesterday morning for Co lumbia. R. T. Jaynes and J. W. Shelor, representing Mr. Verner, and J. R. Earle, representing Mr. Brown, also left Tues day tn appear before the State Comm i' ? tee. The result will be of great interest to all sections of the oounty. mom* Well Worth Trying. W. H.
