Owes Stale and Count; About $20.000.—Makes Deed of TnistCoTerittKaUof His Prop erty for Benefit of His Bondsmen. The Greensboro News, of Aug. 28th, contained a seusatioual story from Lexington regarding Mr. Dorsett, who was sheriff of David son county for eight years. Ex tracts from the story follow: “,He owes the State and county, in round numbers, 820,000, and has to meet this four or five thous and on his tax books, which he may or may not collect. “The ex-sheriff has made a deed of trust covering all of his proper ty, for the benefit of his bondsmen. He is said to be worth $20,000. There is a mortgage on his real es tate for $2,500. Ifhe -can collect all the taxes due him, and his property brings what it is estima ted to be worth, his bondsmen will only lose five or six thousand dol lars. / “Back of this financial delin- ' quency there is a . reason, and a very grave but disreputable one. The saying of the French. “Look out for a woman in the case,” is strikingly exemplified here. And there is a woman in the case— for sooth a negro woman—described as being fairly good looking, fat, yel low and a woman of some twenty- two or twenty-three years of age. •‘For a number of years it has been an- open secret about Lexing ton and the county that ex-sheriff ■. T. S. F. Dorsett was criminally in timate with Laura Hargrove, IheWAf aist term “of court, Patting a Stop to Progress. Wilmington Messenger. If the feeling of those Wall Street bankers toward North Caro lina securities is that of capitalists generally the city will find it diffi cult to secure, persons willing' to take the bonds. Other cities in the State are preparing to' cell bonus tor making improvements. They also are directly concerned. Unless these bonds can be sold progress and development will be checked in all these cities. A stop will be put to such contemplated improvements as building water works and making permanent iui provements on the streets. Besides those cities which are specially interested in the matter, it is one of concern to the entire State. It shows that North Caro lina has for the time being destroy ed her credit with outside capital ists; that they do not consider her county and municipal bonds as good securities; that they are afraid to invest their money here. North Carolina needs money for develop ing her resources. Unless she can induce capitalists from abroad to supply the needed funds the de velopment must cease, or at- least be greatly retarded. It is vety unfortunate that such a state ot affairs should be brought about at this time as to frighten capital a- way from the State. W hile the attitude of those North ern capitalists is to be deplored, one cannot blame them for not be ing willing to iuvest their mot ey in this State under present condit ions and so long the policy 01 the State administration tends to reduce the value of securities.- This war on corpoiations by. the administration and the effort by some to stir up popular enmity against ihem is doing the State great harm, and will do still more uuless there is a.change. We make no apologies for the railroads or any other corporations which violate the law. All such offend ers should be punished, but.-there— — : .. —... — The “Pu«h Ahead." North Carolina is going forward and the last Legislature gave it a long push ahead.—News and Ob server. Since the passage of the rate law by the last Legislature, and as a direct resnlt of that law, the Southbound' railroad from Winston-Salem suspended work after an expenditure of a quarter of a million dollars, pulled up stakes and left the State; there were bright prospects that the Southern would equip the Wilkes- boro-Jefferson turnpike and convert it into a railroad, but the project has falleu flat; the Carolina and Northwestern early in the 6 pring announced that it will not operate the usual train to carry summei visitors to Blowing Kock', and other mountain .resorts; the Sea board Air Line discontinued sev eral trains; I he railroads abandoned the cnstom of hiring trains for excuisions to Sunday schools and individuals; the Southern Kailway - (it is reported), will discontinue one train on the Wilkesboro branch and one on the Mt. Airy branch; the Southetn Bailway has cut off its double tracking operations on the main Iiue north of Greensboro; the Carolina and Northwestern has suspended work it had under way of permanent improvement on the roadway; the Southern has sus pended its doable tracking opera tions between Asheville and Mor ristown, throwing five hundred men out of employment; the South ern Railway has red need its quar terly dividend from 2 i to IJ per cent. These are some of the effects of the last session of the legis lature upon the prosperity of the State, This about two weeks ago, Lanra Har grove was indicted for running a house of ill fame. She was con victed. Laura took an appeal. Thejudgefixedher bond at one thousand dollars. Dorsett stepped forward and signed the bond. “The judge sentenced her to jail, but gave her thirty days to leave town. And now comes the act in this play of indecency that caused the good people of Lex'ing- ton to gasp in horror. Monday night a .week ago Laura was pay ing a visit to Dorsett in his office —came to see him something a- .bofcta deed, so they said Mrs. Dorsett appeared on the scene un expectedly. What took place then is not definitely known. It ap pears, however that Mrs. Dorsett hit Laura with a broom and that Latiraseized Mis. Dorsett by the hair, while the genial Dorsett hn- dertook to pacify and separate the combatants. In the scuffle they finally got into the street, where the performance was stopped by the crowd that had assembled. In du^ time Laura, the luckless, was " arrested and hauled before the mayor. The mayor placed her under a $300 bond, which was giv en, some negro relative signing it for her. There was much excite ment and some talk of lynching Laura, which, fortunately for her and the community as well, was not done. “Public sentiment, of course, frowns upon the whole affair. Tiie woman has been run out of town ' The ex sheriff remains to face his creditors and an outraged public. ‘■Sheriff Dorsett is a man of . about fifty years of age. He has fOur children by his first wife. He lives in a handsome residence on one of the best streets of the town. His father, Dr. VV. H. Dorsett, is oiie of the most highly respected men in Davidson county, and has the sympathy of every one. Sher iff Dorsett is not a drinking man. His infatuation for a bad woman has been his ruin.” is a right and a wrong way of do ing everything. Because certain •ailroad officials violate the law there should not be such an on slought upon corporate property and corporate rights. The inno cent should not be made to suffer and property- values decreased; That is the condition existing in this State today, and this New York dispatch shows what are the effects on the credit of the State. The above is Democratic author ity, and the editor of the Mesuen • ger frankly admits that these con ditions exist, and he had as well come out and said that the last Democratic legislature and the radical element in the State head ed by Gov. Glenn, were respon sible for the conditions existing in the State today. Railroad . con struction has'almost bee” stopped —and it’s next to impossible to sell bonds, and if it continues, pro gress will be checked in the State, and we will take a backward step in our State’s building up and ad vancement-. If a. Republican legis lature had brought about present conditions in our State, what a howl would go up from the Demo cratic press. The people are catch ing on to the- demagogery of Gov Glenn and his crow'd, and his road to the .IT- S. Senate is planted with thorns. A Humane Appeal. A humane citizen of Richmond, Ind., Air. TI. D.

O., Sept. 9.— No requests were made by the pa trons of the Southern Eailway in North Carolina for lower passenger rates and 110 representations that the rates were too high were made by the Korth Carolina railway commission, according to the testi mony today of S. H. Hardwick, passeuger traffic manager of the Southern Railway, in the investi gation being mada before Jcdge Montgomery, special master, talc ing evidence for Judge Pritchard, of the United States Circuit Court. If any such applications had been made Mr. Hardwick said he would have known about them, for it is his business to see that the patrons of the line are satisfied with the charges for passenger tran sportation. Mr. Hardwick then testified concerning the additions that have been made from time to time in the train service in North Carolina. He said also that the road never receives as an average of its revenues from the passenger traffic the maximum allowed for the variouscjasses of business. As a n exam pie of this he said the road carries about 50,000 or 60,000 tourists ever year;dnriug the sum mer and winter tourist seasons, and special rates are made in such cases. Mr Hardwick was not called to the stand until near the close of the day’s session, and there was no op- ■portunity for counsel for the State 'iKMiross-exu.inine him today. Most of the day was consumed by the continnatjlon of the testimony of Green, frieight traffic manager, who was questioned extensively con- ceruing-aiatters. that require con sultation of the books in order to make answer. He was questioned regarding alleged discriminations in favor of Virginia points on cer tain classes of freight business. General CounselThom examined the wiiuess later and showed that the lines running north and south, f the Southern Railway and antic Coast Line, are operat or the Southern classifica- rates, and the east and west such as the Norfolk and Western and the Chesapeake and Ohio operate under the official classification. The couclosion drawn wae. that this makes it impossible for the Sootherntoinfiuence the rates to Virginia points.

It is stated that though' he had a wife, he was engaged to a young lady living near Charlotte, and was to elope to the west with her, and also that he had attempted to cut his wife’s throat. His end did not come too soon. To check a cold quickly, get from your druggist some little Candy Tab- -Aite called Preventics. Druggists everywhere are now dispensing Preventics, for they are not only safe, but decidedly certain and prompt. Preventics contain no Qui nine, no laxative, nothing harsh nor sickening. Taken at the “sneeze stage” Preventics will prevent Pneumonia, Bronchitis, La Grippe, etc. Hence the . name, Preventics. Good for feverish children. 48 Preventics 25 cents. Trial Boxes 5 ets.

There are but two alternatives— cerebral jim-jams, or what is far worse, being out of fashion. After moons of close confinement with natural historians and nature fake volumes the arbiters of the external appearance of the man of 1908. have settled upon the straight front and the kangaroo for winter styles. The kangaroo cut, to be carried out suc cessfully, must be abetted by the kangaroo walk. So that the man who would don the up-to-date tog gery must veer forward from the waist line up like the leaning tower of Pisa, says the Chicago Blade. The tailors have figured it out that few men of fashion are sufficiently school ed contortionists to ape the Austral ian marsupial with precision. But they have foiind a way to augument this deficiency with the—er—aw— ahem—bustle. Somuch for style. In color the raiment for man can only be compared to a broken-back ed rainbow. The prevailing colors are: Seasick green, scrambled egg chrome, skim milk blue, stogie brown and sporting edition pink; These garments appeared upon the horizon of Chicago last week. Many could not wait to order their apparel and demanded that it be cut, fitted ,iand sewed immediately. Michigan boule vard resembles much the appearance of a kangaroo cage.

Saturday night, August 31st, was the 21 st anniversary of the earthquake which shook up things hereabouts and wrought such havoc at Charleston. For the reason that it was most destructive at Charles ton it was known as the “ Charles ton earthquake.’’ How time flies! To many of us .it seems but a few years since the shake occurred, for it is vividly impressed on the me mory, and yet children born since then, or who were too young at the time to remember the event, are grown men and women. There were many aniUBing incidents con- neeted with that earthquake, but it wasn’t a bit funny at the time. Last Tuesday, AuguBt 27th, was the 16th anniversary of the Bostain bridge wreck, whiih occurred at .2 o’clock on the morning of August 27,1891. A west-bound passenger train, it will be recalled, fell off the bridge on the north side. Twenty- two persons were killed and 26 in jured, and some of the injured afterward died. Mr. Hugh Lein ster, son of Mr. and Mrs. R. O. Leinster, of Statesville, a baggage master on the train, was one of the victims. Some of those who es caped death in the fall were pinned in the cars which fell in the creek and dammed the water, and were drowned by the water rising on them before they could be released. Only two persons on the train were prsctically uninjured—Col. Bene- han Cameron, of Raleigh, and Mr. J. W. Elliott, of Hickory. Col. Cameron, who was in the sleeper, scrambled out and walked bore foot to a nearby house and called1 for help.—Statesville Landmark. Pennsylvania T wo Cent Fare Unconsti tutional. Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 10.— Judges Willson and Ahdenried, in Common Pleas Court, declared unconstitutional the two-cent rail road “fare law passed by the last legislature. The case upon which the decision was made will at once be taken to the Slate Supreme Court. The two cent fare law was enact ed by the legislature as a result of agitation during the last political campaign, all parties pledging themselves in favor of Buch legisla tion. The railroads, led by the Pennsylvania and Reading, made a strong fight against the enactment of the law, but both branches of the legislature passed the bill, with practically a unanimous vote. The law was to go into efiect on October I. Dr. P. L. Murphy Dead. Dr. P. L. Murphy, superintend ent of the State hospital for the in sane at Morgauton, died there on the morning of the 11th.

Iu these stockings the fashionable young woman carries the silken autographs of her chums. Every girl she knows is asked to embroider her name in silk of di vers hues on one of the stockings. The signature is written with mark ing ink just as ic would be at the end of a letter, and then worked over with bright threads. Naturally, the stockings, by the time they have been autographed thoroughly, do not match. But the general effect is harmonious, and the wearer has the satisfaction of knowing that she bears the sign manual of every girl she likes and perhaps a few she doesn’t. It is said in Newport and other resorts of fashion at least two girls iu five thus have transformed their extremities into peripatetic auto graph albums. If theembroiderer is good natnred she works into tbe stocking not only her signature, but an appreciative sentiment. What most of the sentiments are only the initiated can know. This Clothing is first-class in everj respect. Made in the very latest Spring styles, iu double and single breast. We are offering it at 20 per cent discount, simply to clear our stock of odd numbers left from Spring business. If you are in need, now is your opportunity. We are offering men’s and women’s Oxfords as quoted below. Our shoe business this season has been exceedingly good.

Heart Strength Hea rt Strength, or Heart Weakness, means Nerve Strength, or NerveWeakness—nothing more. Positively, not one weak heart to a hundred is, in i£» self, actually diseased.

A LETTER FOR UNCLE JOHN D. There is a letter in the Asheville postoffice for John D, Rockefeller and he will do well to call for it at once or else it will be sent to the dead letter office at Washington, and when he goes there after it Teddy, the bear, will get him. It was represented to Major Rollins that he should send tbe letter to John D., at Cleveland or Kew York, or wherever he lives when he is not dodging subpoenas, but the major replied that he'conld not do it, that the letter hiust take the regular couise. It was urged on him that maybe the letter con tained nimey and that perhaps Mr. Rockefeller had been looking for it ami might suffer because he did not get it, or else that it con tained a request for money and that lie would surely feel bad if he canid not get it. The major said that he could uotheip it if John D. did die of a broken heart be cause he missed a chacce to give away money, but if there was any fault it..was the governments. • Furthermore, he said that he did not know but what Mr. Rocke feller would be, in Asheville . and call for the letter. Mr. Rocke feller. he said, was at Hot Springs some years ago and attended church, and it happened that the preacher, not knowing the very rich one was there, preached on HOW TO START a magazine and mail order business on a capital of $1.00.
