GOVERNORANDSTAFF TO CHARLOTTE MAY 20 Governor Manning, accompanied by his staff, will attend the exercises incident to the observation of the Mecklanburg declaration of independence at Charlotte on May 2. Because of a warm invitation from Mayor Kirkpatrick of Charlotte and because President anil Mrs. Wilson will be present at the exercises the governor decided to visit the North Carolina city on May 20. Notice has been mailed the individual members of the governor's staff asking each to accompany the chief executive. Governor Manning is a warm supporter of President Wilson and on every occasion has made it plain that ho stands behind the man now in the White House. He was one of the four delegates at large to the Baltimore convention tour years ago and the fact that the South Carolina delegation stood for Mr. Wilson on every ballot at that convention has always been remembered by the president. He and the governor are warm personal r? . 1 ?%?*#! f U <i ? rtl Ait .1 i?*U I I 1 Itll'IO t K I \ | l/Ut* IIIUM^ j/l\.UOUl V.O nuivu the governor will receive from a trip to Charlotte will be enhanced by the fact that he will have the opportunity of meeting President Wilson there also. The following is Ihe invitation sent to Governor Manning and staff by Mayor T. L. Kirkpatrick of Charlotte: ''The people of Charlotte expe.'t to entertain President Woodrow Wilson May twentieth, nineteen hundred and sixteen, at which time he will be the chief speaker at the one hundred and forty-first anniversary of the Meck| lenburg declaration of independence. I "We cordially invite you and your i staff to be our guests and participate with us in the festivities of the occasion. We expect to emphasize the military features, and desire to extend, through you, to the adjutant general oi your state and state guard, and invitation to be present at this time." The governor acceped the invitation and said he and his staff would attend if possible, and he is now making preparations to that end. The people of Columbia regret that the president and Mrs. Wilson can not make them a visit at the same time they come to Charlote, and since they can not come here a great many Columbians are making preparations to go to Charlotte to hear him. It is thought that many of the public men of the state and prominent citizens from all sections will make the trip to Charlotte for the 20th. . Especially | do the leading Democratic politicians | plan to be in JharlAtte. It is possible | that some of the military organizations near Charlotte from South Carolina will go up to take part in the parade. % COLDS & JLaGRIPPE 5 or 6 do6es 6G6 will break *ny case of Chills & Fever, Colds & LaGrippe; it acts on the liver better than Calomel and does not firipe or sicken.
