THE PEOPLE’S RIGHTS MAlNTAINi UNAWED BY INFLUENCE AND UNBRIiBED BY GAIN. COLUMN XXIII.MOCKSVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 5, 1922.'NUMBER. 39 Are We H°>D£ Our DotY As Good Citizens? . >Ir. Editor:—W ithin less than two weeks two serious crimes, one a capital felony, have been com­ mitted in our little town; and with­ in the last six mouths two or three capita! felonies have been commit­ ted in our county. W hat is the matter? We are progressing in more ways than one, and I rem ark­ ed after the attempt was made to destroy the Gaither building week before court, that the papers should come out strong against such crim­ inality: not a word of criticism ap­ peared except that written by m y­ self condemning such lawlessness. These criminals not only took out the brick underpinning but used the brick to make a sentence on the concrete sidewalk reading as fol­ lows: "Unless removed, will be burnt." Every participant in that work violated a criminal law, of the State,’punishable by 3 0 days in jail or a fine of $50. The entering of my home in wnich five people were sleeping was a capital felony, c ir- rying with it a punishment of death. Is it not time for every , good and lawabiding citizen of our town and county to wake up and take steps to stamp out such criminally? 'H is­ tory tells us that the emper r Nero fiddled while Rome was burning. Are we not standing b / afraid to open our mouths for fear it will cause us to lose a dollar in condem­ nation of worse criminals than was the einperor of Rome? Can wehope or expect for the laws t<? be enforc­ ed by the criminal element of our town or county? Do not the worst criminals of our town and county often bring into our courts men who pose in their neighborhoods as “good dozens," and prove the good character of the indicted criminal? Isamanagood citizen who will came into court and swear that no­ torious liquor makers and sellers ate men of good character? To my mind they are very undesirable- citizens, and are one of the worst menaces to law and Order in our county. Can we enforce the cri­ minal laws of our country as long as Uiese so-called "good citizens” a:e seemingly in league with the criminal element of our connty and stite? IVake up, good people of Davie county, or our boasted Chris­ tian civilization will be destroyed and our rights and liberties will perish, and our great government, “I which every good citizen is justly proud, will like Rome, decline and fall. It's the duty, whether you realize it or not, of every good citi aen to stand by our courts and of­ ficers and aid them in every way possible to bring to justice every law violator. Quit criticising the officers unless you . do your duty, stand up and be counted, or shut I ’Ur mouths, and continue to chase tJle aIwighty dollar regardless of t K life and character of your child- rCuand neighbor’s children. You cannot shirk your duty and charge II Up to the officers. Every man ®uc6 it to his town, his corinty and ls Stato to do his part to enforce 15 laws, and when your own. son JtUs antI disgrace is stamped upon luur family name, don’t blame the cer, but take your part of the f-spousibility. Our court has just a jourued. Two young men are WJw serving a 15 -year sentence in ,State’s prison.

Picking up a modest publication, e ititled ‘‘Through The Meshes," the editor noted^this. and believing it too, good to kte'ep, decided to give young men readers the benefit of seeing it; y . "Maybe, there is nothing old- fashioned about such a notion, but my experience with modern young men is that they are thinking tco much of titles, pay, hours, the size of their desks, and smoking rules. I do not deny that some .of these are important, but they are consi­ derations of older men, class-cons­ cious men, and men who havelost the enthusiasm of youth:. ■ An old- fashion young man is just as good a gambler as a modern young man, but while the latter is throwing dice or spinning the top the former is applying himself to his job, doing three times as he is paid'to do, on the chance that some day his op­ portunity will come and he will be prepared.” J ■ ; It may be added to that the old- fashioned young.man wastes.-little if any of time figuring how to spend, spend - in advance of payday,', he wants to wait for his gay-cheek find then think how much he can save and be decent and comfortable. The young man who studies how- little he can do in the hours he is. at ,work, and keeps his eye upcn; khe\clock lests he might work a minute over-tftne, is not an old- fashioned young man. Then old- fashioned young man does not ex­ pect to keep himself in notice by keeping late hours, _and be .ashamed to tell his mother- .'where -he, kept the'hours. \ It is not to be understood the are i i ohr day and time no old-fashion­ ed young men, there are such and when they grow older they will be seen and heard from. .

But the' space newspaper gave him w as-Ayofth millions. . 'IfGy ' Ford spent a million dollars send­ ing a “peace ship” to Europe when peace appeared farthest off. Soiiie people said he was ‘‘crazy," but the space the newspaper gave, the stunt was worth 10 times what-idf cost.

The farmers are so disgusted and disgrunted over the status, of the cotton market that they. Won’t talk about it:' With a very short crop that entiled them by the law of sup­ ply and demand to 30- or 40 cents they are offered i/to 18 cents and they/Ion’t care if they never raise any more at less than it cost them to make. Some day these South­ ern fartiiers will strike and when they do there will be wailing and Hashing of teeth in Wall Street, in Manchester and at Fall.River, For 50 years they have been slaves - of the market manipulators and they are getting.very tired. They have made the world rich and got scar­ cely a iiving out of it. ’ They should have a Trust—the Biggest Trust on earth. They should demand'; a living price and never sell a ppund until they get it. With an abolute. monopoly in the production of cot­ ton they should iise this monopoly for their own benefit. When they do. for their own benefit. When they do the South will become rich and it never will become so until the farmers .assert their rights. Whether this co-operative market­ ing program will reach the, trouble or not we do nof' know. It will not unless all go into it and until t’.iey can control obsolutely the crop entirely in every ’way .—Ex. men don’t 'commit crime,, destroy property, enter people’s homes un­ der cover of darkness; it’s the cowT ardly. criminal and we - must stamp him opt or he will drag us all down in the mire to his own level. -LetX select our officers this year with the purpose of upholding and' enforc­ ing the laws in'Qavie county.

Beveridge, candidate for the Republican nomination for Unit­ ed States senao r, addressing a large ®nd enthusiastic district rally de­ clared S&ainst extravagant campaign Xpendithres and invited Senator Harry S. New, his opponent, to en­ ter a compact to abandon political money armament as a matter of com­ mon sense and common honesty. Ex-Senator Beveridge, in eondem ning money battles forjwminations, referred to- a resolutiSh^passed by the United State Senate and voted .for by Senator New, declaring that excessive fienancial expentitures by a candidate contrary to sound pubi' c policy, harmful to the honor and dig nity-of the Seneate and dangerous to the perpetuity of a free government. As a matter of interest, here are some headlights from his speech: It is common report that already large sums of money have been and are being disbursed by the opposi­ tion and that this-is but the begi - ning of still greater expenditures. The salary of a Senator is $7 500 per year—$45,000 for the tfull tern. I?, then, more should.be spei t mere- I /for the nomination for Senator than the total of his six years’ salary how can any candidate justify him­ self to the electors in November. The nations have abandoned com peti ion in naval armament. Why not abandon throughout the repub­ lic, competition 'in political money armaments? And why should nett Indiana lead the wav?

Citizens of Mecklenburg, Gaston Guilford and Wavne have assembled to protect against the enormous taxes they are called upon to pay.

The people were told again and a- gain when the new adjustments in taxation were slightly increased at all.

Trees For The Highways. -The Newton and Hickory ,Kiwanis are promoting a tree-planting move for the new highway between these two towns and The Hhickory Record is wisely advocating that fruit trees be selected. The Observer has often in the past referred to the - German plan adopted years ago of planting fruit-bearing trees along, the high­ ways does not need, much shade, but a number of trees planted under a system that would not promote in­ jury by shading the surface of the roads is and attainment eminently to- be desired. The endeavor of the Kiwanis clubs is one worthy of emu­ lation by organizations in all progres­ sive communities, and when they get starteiinto the tree-planting busi­ ness, it might be profitable to give sbme attrntion to the possibilities of the pecan.—Charlotte Obsei ver.

It would notonly.be wrong, but unintilligent to do otherwise. If our official party organization, as such, in any district or county is working for one candidate and a- gainst the other organization is false to its trust.

Mr. Henro Ford has made public statement that he believes Edison was right in his prediction that the politicians would defeat his drsires to get Muscle Shoals. He says some of these politicians “should be rer placed by. priests and preachers,” ; and cites and seating of Newberryas evidence lhat the politicians "should be swept into the discard.” Of course Mr Ford is no politician, but he is a political discard all the same and. when they puli ,him out it will be found that he was.at the ^bottom of the desk Mr. Fordknowsaheap more about making automobiles than he does about running for Senate — Charlotte Observer Nothing At' AU. - ‘-‘There is to be^very IittJe change in;trousers this year, ’ ’ says a fashion hint. ,Ifthat bird is speaking cf ours he’s probably right. In fact, lthefe has been very little change in A Suggestion.

One who steals or cheats a dollar loses ten-fold more than the one who lost the. dollar. By the time one pays his rents, taxes, water clotliitig atid grocery bills, nothing is left. Joe-Danielseemsto be as glad Will Havs is going off the Cabinet, as the folks are that Joe is already off. When we succeed in getting the prohibition law enforced, then we are going to try to have the sp;ed limit law enforced. It is said “people are what they read. Are they? AU say that read the Bible.

Green county. This war­ rant is now in the hands of Sheriff Fred C. Sink, but haa not yet been served by reason of the fact that- Armfield is now in custody. According to this warrent the loan was negotiated by. Armfield more than a years ago and was secured by three notes, one by Armfield, one by Gates City Lumber Co., and one by another person, all three of whom, the warrent alleges were insolvent at the tim,e but which it charges Arm field represented to be solvent.

It was almost midnight when the visiiors left. They had been sitting outside, on the honeysuckle-scented from porch mid In the cabin yard. At Iasi Hill Hale and John Moreland were Iefi iogetlier on the porch. •Tliore's 11 tiling that has . puzzled me siiu-e ilie moment I got here this evening." said Hale. “Why Is it that noliody seems to be grieving over Caleb's being In jail?" The idg liilltmin’s answer came el* most sharply:' “No Moreland are: grieved over a sacrifyce, Bill.” Lhile sat up straight. “A sacrifice! Wliai do you mean?" This lime the big ltlllman’s answer came slowly. “I mean ’at Cale he’s IHnliiii- all 0’ Ilie load oft 0’ yore shoulders 'at he can. Cale he’s a-takin’ yore plate in jail ontel the trial conies off, wliieh'll be at the October term 0' co ie. He trusts you to come back and set him free on the day 0’ the trial. O1 course you’ll do it; we hatn’t never doubted that fo’ one little min­ ute, Bill. But it wasn’t all done fo' yore sake. You’re the hope o' the Morelands, and you - can do a heap more here ’an Caleb can.’" He leaned toward Bill Dale and went 011 in a confidential tone: ’•And I can tell ye this here, ef you're found guilty 0’ killin’ Adam Ball, and sentenced fo’ even one year, the Morelands and the TJttlefords is a-goiti' to take ye front the officers and (urn ye loose with a good, long start 011 the law.” “Wouldn't that be rather—” vke off because he had seen gure of a man appear In the open gateway.

"And if your folks want to try storm­ ing the Jail, let them. A full com­ pany of militia can. be rushed here within an hour, at any time, and we’ll give your folks all tlic.fun they want.” It may be recorded that the four hillmen never confessed.• * * * Bill Dale, closely shadowed by one lanky Samuel Heck with his inevitable, tver-ready rifle, went among the work­ ers with a-cheer that he did not feel. For Caleb Moreland was In jail, and Caleb Morelnnd was innocent. But there was one sincere delight, for. Dale: Hayes was driving, the little railroad ahead with all his might and' all the might of his men. Hayes was In high favor with those under him; they worked even -harder when he was absent than they worked when he was standing over them. ' Tb* tlij* ran hj, asd OMtm w-nn no sign «f a hmttlk AnaaMlmthn hum the Balls and Txresya. Ridging fium appearances, thny ware wholly satis­ fied with Caleb Morelat-d’s being in jail. Henderson' ’ Hoff had disappeared. Dnle hoped that he was rid of the man for all time, but he wasn’t. Qoff was not so confident as was Major Bradley that he could establish his innocence In the matter of the dynamjting of the two buildings and the trestle. He wished very much to steer clear of arrest, for reasons of his own, and he was biding his time In a littie town In Avestern North Carolina. When the dynamiting affair had blown over,' he would go back and try again,-perhaps by an altogether new scheme, to get himself . 'Into. possession- of - the-More-= land coal. - Then there came to . the neighbor­ hood a . man whom no Moreland, and none of the Littlefords, had ever set eyes upon before. He was a very un­ couth mountain man, with .long black hair and shaggy beiwilj.hls clothing was outlandish and ragged. He had not much to say.; there was about him, somehow, an air of mystery. Two days after his arrival, In the afternoon, the stranger met Dale mid- uWhat Do Ye Think 0’ This Here7” He Wanted to Know. way between the Halfway switch and the opening of the coal vein, -and stopped him with an unpraised hand. "Do you know good coal when ye see It?” he drawled.“Why?” asked Dale, on his guard. -The stranger looked sharply ..In all directions, as though _he wished- to make sure that no pefSon. was within earshot- of them. Evidently satl* fled, he drew. from a trousers pocket a sitting .black.. lump of: coil, which- he - held -outi for. Dale’s Inspection. • “What do ye think o' this here?” he wanted to. know.. .Dale took the lump and examined It closely; It was apparently as. good as the Moreland coal, which had sent the expert Hayes Into raptures. Dale then looked closely qt .the stranger, He appeared-to- Ite honest; -his gaze wtiia steady; *and: seemed1 ,very Inno- ObDtr, .,-'T t: ,; “Where - did: yenLget this?” Dale mite is (He only/vein-In: the whole country?" ; “Where did you-get this?" Dale re­ peated/ -' “Do ye think," drawled the other, “ ’at I’m plumb fool enough to-give my. find away fo’ nothin’? I been pore all 0’ my ./life, mister!" V > . “How am I to know,” frowned Dale, “that you’ve really got a And?""Ye’d belieVe yore own two eyes, wouldn’t ye?” . ; L “Yes," Dale agreed, “I’d believe my own two eyes, ofcourse. What’s your name, and where- are you from?” ' “What do I git outen. it? J don’t own the mountain ItVin1 but it shore can be bought fo' fifteen cents a acre. And nobody knows about It- but jest me. If lays closer to the railroad ’an this here Moreland vein, too. What do I git outen It, mister?” The mountaineer seemed more hon­ est than .ever,, but - Dale was still- on his guard. He asked again “What’s your name, and where are you from?” This time the answer came readily: "My name It's Walt Turner, and I'm from Turner’s Laurel, Madison county,- state 0’ Nawth Ga’llner. But my find It ain’t nowhars dost to home. ’Taln’t- no more'n about two' hours 0’ walkin’ ..from right here, mister. Ef you’d jest, up and go along wi’ me, I’d show it to ye." - Dale considered. - There might be a considerable vein of this new coal. Even if he was sent to the state peni­ tentiary for a term of grears, Hayes was entirely capable of . carrying on the mining operations. “I'd like to take 'my mining man, Hayes—” “No!” quickly objected Walt Tur­ ner. “I don't want nobody else to know whar It’s at but Jest you and me. That' away, ye see, ef I'm treated crooked I’ll know edzactly who done it —and I’ll shore git you! ButT heerd tell’ at you was pow’ful square, mis­ ter.” '. • “Could I get back here before night­fall?” • ■. Turner’s eyes lighted. “Shore!” “Then lead the way," ordered Dale. Walt Turner from Turner’s Laurel, Madison county, state of North; Caro- .Ina, crossed the little creek on stones and went straight to the northeast, missing the Ball settlement by a good, mile, and hard on his heels followed. the Moreland Coal company’s stalwart general manager. The way was exceedingly rough. The two men climbed, rugged cliffs, threaded densd thickets of great -laurel, mountain laurel, sheep. laurel, anil, huckleberry bushes, They were one. hour In a stretch, of*woods where the. hemlocks, poplars and hickories stood so Hiickly that the interlacing branches overhead-shut out completely the lighf- of the sun and half the light of day’ Fearing a panther, or a wildcat, D&&, Ttept his revolver loosiene'd and-readyHn- Its holster.' .Walt Turnep armed him­ self with a long staff—for snakes, he said; and then -he proved it by killing a rattler that had eight rattles to its tall. . , But they traveled rapidly, .notwith­ standing the fact that the going was difficult; and two hours after the.be­ ginning of the little journey pale saw before him a small and almost'circular, level-bottomed basin walled In by low cliffs. A small creek ran through this basin and . made two easy ways of en­ trance. In the hollow theysaw clumps of laurel and huckleberry, bushes, and wild grasses knee-high ; toward the center stood a solitary big and gnarled hlack walnut tree. Tliejrsntered 'at the point at which the creek ran In, and went to the, wal­ nut tree. There Turner halted and faced Bill Dale with a peculiar glint In his eyes. Dale was looking at the rugged walls of. stone, and at the thick green forest that rose above them; he was marveling, as only a true lover of beauty can marvel,' at the wonderful grandeur of it all.: ^ssWalt Turner, .of Turner’s, Laurel, opened his slit, of a-mouth and spake, "Here’s'The kitty I” . ■ ■ Dale was' brought out of his en­ joyment most rudely. From behind clumps of laurel: and huckleberry bushes, from /the tall grasses,, from everywhere—it seemed from nowhere —there- sprang dozens of Balls and Torreys with rifles In' their hands! Bill Dale bad walked, as. gently as a kitten, straight into' a trap. - - His right hand moved toward .the butt. of his revolver, then dropped at his side.. It ,.was' foolish, worse than useless, to show-fight; dozens of rifles were staring at him with their frownl -murderous - eyes, and • their bu!lets~would riddle him if he showed fight.- He glanced toward Walt Tur­ ner, kinsman of the. Balls. . Turner, was laughing openly. “Pore little kitty I” If ever I have the chance,” mut­ tered Bill Dale, “I’ll thrash you. for this cute little Joke of yours.”- “You won’t, never-ihave the chanst,” laughed Walt Turner. The Balls and the-Torreys began to close In on all. sides,-and a solid ring of dark and for the most, part bearded, wickedly - triumphant faces formed -Itself around. Dalev. Adam Ball’s father, the acknowledged leader of that band ef ' cutthroats that was now the Ball-Torrey faction, glared at Dale" with black’ eyes 'that -were'- fiHed with 'the: fire of - intense hatred; then he seized Pale’s revolver, and thrust It Inside the walst-band of_ hls. woni jeans trousers. ~ Dale felt, the grip of rough hands on his shoulders and arms. He_fully realized his great danger; but he strove, tsf^eep all.signs of fear out of his countenance,-and he was not unsuccessful.: . - “I presume' this Is what--you calltaking the law Tnto your “own- hands, JsnH it?” be said with a smile fhat was forced. •- ' ’"Edzactly I”; snapped: old -Ball.: :?We ye fo’ the-law, and we turned ye over to the-law; and 'en, by gonnies, the law turned ye loose the- very next day I And 'en the shurlff he- cOmes out here, and arrests four 0’ us!

Ye’re plumb shore to git jestlce. -I’ll prom­ ise ye jestlce.” “You’ve evidently overlooked the fact that -another man confessed to the killing, and that that was why they liberated me,” said Dale; _ “It’s-some cussed frame-up,” snarled the leader of the .gang. “No man on earth don't like no other man well enough fo'- that. Asides, you’re the one 'at killed my son Adam, by gon­ nies,. and you’re the one 'at must suf- Bill Dale Had. Walked, as Gentjy as a Kitten, Straight Into a Trap. fer fo’ it. Bight here onder this here wamut tree we’re a-goln’ to hold co'te and have yorefrlal, by jedge and jury, and you'll shore git what’s a-comin’ Bill Dale cut In with some bitter­ ness: “And you’ll be the judge, and your plans have already been laid, and I'm to be hanged by the neck until dead; eh? Well, you’ll pay dearly for It, I promise you. We always have 1 to pay for what we get, you know. The Mortiands and the Littlefords will ,be quick to settle the-account. You know that.’.’ “No,” old Ball disagreed hotly, “I don’t know that!” He turned to the others. “Bet down, boys. It’s the same price as standln’. The jury will please set over thar,” pointing to his right. “The prls’ner and his gyards will please set right over thar,” pointing to his left. “The' hon’rable' jedge, which same la me, will please set right thar,” indi­ cating a spot at the base of the gnarled -walnut. "The rest,” he finished, “will set anywhar they d—n .pleases. Set down, men.” His orders were obeyed. Dale found himself sitting on the ground, between two pairs of mountaineers and facing a line of twelve mountaineers—the so- called jury. To his left was the self- appointed judge, and to his righf lounged a score or more of men whose attention was then being turned tO; ward ,a jug of fiery new whisky that had never been near to a revenue stamp or anything else that was hon­ est! The jug traveled rapidly from One hairy, mouth to another. Old Ball passed the jug' to a mem­ ber of the “jury,” and announced: “Well, daminit, co’te’s open now.” "Kitty, kitty,. kittyJ” taunted Walt Turner. “Pore little kitty I” Thevmockiery began. It was ridicu­ lous, and yet it was grim. Adam Ball’s father himself furnished most of the evidence; also he acteif as prosecuting attorney; Of course there was ho counsel for the defense, .and it wouldn’t have helped if Dale had had a proverbial Philadeiphia lawyer on the grounds; alt- the proof and elo-. quence and pleading In ;tbe world never would have changed, in the slightest de­ gree, the sentence that had been cut and dried for Bill Dale. The mock trial was—being held solely because the. Balls, an "'Torreys felt that by hold­ ing it they were insulting the majesty of the law and making their ven­ geance sweeter. It became worse than a travesty...................... Night fell during the wordy and profane harangue of the Ball leader, and It was drdered that a ffre be built at once. At once a fire was built, dry brushwood being used, and In Its red and-flickering;glare the faces of the hillmen looked doubly dark and doubly, wicked. Then the Judge begged; a chew of tobacco and deliberately kept the whole twist, and-told Hie. Jury to go out and bring back a verdict wlth- out losing time. The - twelve-mountaineers -rose un­ steadily,, and went to the creek, and there rone* of them uncovered another, jug of fiery new whisky tnat was alien to a revenue stamp. They, drank heavily and returned to the walnut tree’court wfthont .mentioning the trial. . >■: - -- Tlie foreman was a Torrey, and a particularly bad one.. His swarthy face, vrith its high' Cherokee cheek­ bones and its thln-lipped month, was ultra-cruel, ultra-vicious.

He cleared, his throat., spat between two fingers at the fire! and turned to the judge. L "Gentlemen 0’ the Jury,” growled the ruling Ball, “have ye reached a verdict?” “We have, yore honor,” very prompt­ ly answered the Torrey who was fore­ man. “And we ha" found the pris’ner. guilty 0’ the wust kind 0' coldblooded premeditated mudder In the fust de­ gree, yore honor.” Old Ball leveled a knotty forefinger toward Bill Dale. “Fe’ the killin’ 0' my son Adam.” he pironounced sentence, “you sh’ll hang by the neck ontel dead, from-a limb 0’ this here warnut tree, by gon­ nies, at sunrise In the mornln’.” . Although he had well known what the sentence would be. Dale went sud­ denly ashen. TBen he -took a firm grip on himself and began to reason. He could not hope, he decided, that the Morelands' and the Littlefords would find him before the sun rose.' They would miss him, of course, and they would suspect foul play and look for him; but finding him in that wild­ erness—it was impossible. It became plain to him that he would have to save himself If he were saved. He believed his best chance lay In his proving, that he was anything but a coward; the worst mountaineer, he knew, admired-a brave man. - So he turned slightly toward the self-appointed judge and asked calm­ ly: “Is there anything really game about you?” “Shore, by gonnies!” quickly. ‘Tm all game. I'm the feller ’at showed wildcats how to fight What about it?” ‘TH see if you’re all game,” Dale said, and he smiled when he spoke. “PU make yon this proposition: PU fight any ten of you, two at a time, with five minutes’ rest between fights; if I whip them all I go free, and if I don’t whip# them all I hang immedi­ ately. ' All parties to be barehanded, no guns and no^knlves. Are you that game?” Ordinarily, it would have been a thing well nigh impossible to do, much as Dale knew of the pugilistic art, great as. was his strength and endur­ ance. .. But now most of those about Dale were drunk and therefore weak­ ened. and he believed he bad a chance .If.-rid BaJI accepted. But Judge Ball didn’t accept. Doubt­ less he remembered his son Adam’s fight with Dale. '1The1 cain’t be no fightin* in co’te,” he said. “You sh’ll hang by the neck ontel dead, at sunrise In the mornin'.** There was a mumble of approval from the others. Doubtless they, too, remembered that the young man whom they held a captive had once whipped Black Adam Ball; the mountaineer Goliath, "with his-bare hands. They did not have the one good trait that Dale.had hoped they possessed; while they must have admired him for his courage, they were afraid to- fight him without weapons. Dale recalled the fact that the Balls were not originally hillfolk, but IpwIanders who had taken to -theamountains In order to avoid being forced to fight during the .Civil war,' a people without a principle. Tlie Cherokee Torreys, of course, were ieven worse. “Kitty, kitty, kitty!” Walt Turner called tauntingly again. “He walked into the trap like a pore little kitty!” A plowline of half-inch cotton rope was produced, and the condemned man was securely bound, standing on his feet and facing outward, to the big walnut.

Author of the Resolution JSays That More Drastic Reduction Must Yet Be Made. Washington.—The Arms Conference naval treaty, limiting the navies of all the great sea powers, was ratified, by the senate. The senate’s approval of the pact was voted without reserva­ tions or amendments and with repub­ lican and democratic "regulars” and “jrreconcilables” generally standing together in its support. The ratification vote was 74 to I, Senator France, republican, Maryland, casting the only negative vote. Of the 74 affirmatives, 48 were re­ publicans and 26 democrats. An­ nouncements. were made that all ab­ sent and paired senators favored rati­ fication. Senator Borah, republican, Idaho, author of the ,congressional resolution requesting the calling of an arms con­ ference, supported the naval limitation treaty in a speech, but declared the pact must be regarded “as the begin­ ning and only the beginning of the work of disarmament.” Mr. Borah praised the conference for what it had done and at the same time asserted that.it had accomplish­ ed nothing toward limiting modern weapons of warfare and had made but an "almost insignificant” reduction In the armament budgets of the',powers. "I have no doubt," said the Idaho senator, "that this treaty represents all that it was ‘possible to secure at this conference. Nevertheless I should regard the treaty as a disaster rather than a benefit H it came t# be-re­ garded as all there is to do, even in the next ten years,' Ifr the matter of disarmament. It Is fitting that we congratulate ourselves on what has been done, but it Is exceedingly im­ portant that we utilize the occasion tor consideration of what there is yet to be done. “Really, while It is a beginning and perhaps will mark an era in progress and civilization, the treaty accom­ plishes very little compared to what we yet must accomplish In order to get the benefit of this first Step. There has been a great deal of discussion about who was the author of the dis­ armament conference. Tfte real au­ thor was public opinion, and without the sustaining power of public opinion this treaty will accomplish little in the way of bringing- the world toward disannament. Unless we go forward moulding public opinion to secure-real disarmament," we shall not in the end accomplish much. .' “Suppose " we were • to be content. Suppose we were to sterilize.;.the in­ terest and enthusiasm aroused in fa­ vor of disarmament add should rest upon what.has been done. We should then have to face the fact that- no, such naval ,armaments have been known in the world - as wili exist after the treaty Is ratified.. • “The conference was wholly unable to deal with the submarine or; with any other instrument of modem war­ fare except airplane carriers. . We-'are simply beginning the great struggle-of disarmament” . CHARGED WITH' VIOLATING THE PENAL CODE BY “BUCKETING” ORDERS. IINDER j>1,000 B O i EdCH Indictments Resulted ,From Ev.fdence Obtained In Recent ."John Doe” Inquiry. New York.—On evidence given at a recent “John Doe” investigation be­ fore Chief Magistrate McAdoo and presented to the grand jury by the district attorney,, the American cotton exchange, largest of its kind In mem- bership-in the country, and six of the directors, were indicted charged with violating the penal code by “buckett- ing” orders. The individuals named in the bill, Randolph Rose, Sr., of Rose & Son, vice-president of the exchange; W. G. Pratt, secretary; Angelo T. Jen­ nings, Martin Goulko, Edwin L. Pat­ ton and llaymond 'Palmer, each were held in. $1,000 for pleading before Judge Rosalsky in general sessions on Monday. Two indictments were returned, one of which Benjamin F. Schreiber; as­ sistant district attorney, revealed jointly charged the exchange as a cor­ poration and th<5 six directors with having, since January I, "crossed sales by making contracts on the basis of the market quotation without intend­ ing to buy .any cotton.” The other indictment, Mr. Scheiber said, accused Patton and JennihgB “with. permitting and inducing the bucketing of orders in that on Octo­ ber 3, 1921, they made a contract be­ tween themselves to purchase 390 bales of cotton at the market, quota­ tion without any intention of making a purchase or delivery.” The "John Doe” inquiry which led to the Indictments was an outgrowth of District Attorney Banton’s investi­ gation into bucket shop operations in the financial district and the snares set for the Investing public by get- rich-quick promoters. Testimony given before Magistrate McAdoo concerning the alleged irreg­ ularities practiced by certain mem­ bers of the-indicted exchange caused him publicly to express his amazement and upon his recommendation the evi­ dence was carried to the grand jury. The American .cotton exchangelwas originally known as the American cot­ ton and grain exchange. It was or­ ganized by Joseph C. Cooper, a south­ ern promoter, who is said now to *ave a claim of {300,000 against the ex­ change. It was (incorporated In New York state August 24, 1919. It was brought out at the John Doe inquiry that many memberships had been sold in the' south for prices as low as $125 payable on installments. The market value of membership on the exchange today was said to be un­ determined. A minimum price of $1,- 000 was fixed at the la3t meeting of the exchange. decrease SHOWN 111RETAIL FOOD FRICES Washington--Retail food costs In ten cities of the country showed a decrease ranging iTom I to Jt per cent during the month from February 15 to March 15, accord­ ing to statistics announced by the Bureau of labor statistics of the Department of Labor.

Members of the house military af­ fairs committee, which with the sen­ ate committee, is Inspecting the ni­ trate and waterpower projects, ex­ pressed tilo view that Muscle Shoals actually and Muscle Shoals on paper looked quite unlike, and Representa­ tive Hull declared the house commit­ tee would never consent to the plants being scrapped. Mr. Hull said the plants might well be used in time of peace for making fertilizers but that they must “ever be kept in readiness in case of emer­ gency.” Chairman Norris did not share the view of a few of his colleagues that the Muscle Shoals problem might Se speedily disposed of on return to Washington of the committee. He said he would invite the presidents of four chemical and technical or­ ganizations to appear before the com­ mittee at once. They-are-the Ameri­ can Society of Electrical' Engineers, American.

It was his opinion, he saidv . that much, of the ground must be gone over again. The entire day was spent In a tour of ihe two nitrate plants and other properties of the reservations. Data before the committeemen showed that the government spent $81 237,656 on the nitrate plants and”that the-sal­ vage value as scrap was estimated at $7,850,000.

London--Winston Spencer -Church­ ill, the imperial secretary of the col­ onies, announced In the house of com­ mons the terms of the most impor­ tant agreement yet reached between representatives of the northern and southern governments In Ireland for bringing about peace in the strife- torn country.The agreement, which was reached with unexpected expedition at the conference between delegates of the Irish groups and representatives of the imperial government, far trans­ cends in importance the pact arrived at between Michael Collins, head of the - provisional government, and Sir James Craig, the Ulster premier, at an earlier stage in the negotiations. It provides for the re-organization of the police in Ulster on a basis sat­ isfactory to the religious leanings of the people of the north and the south; for the trial of persons charged with serious offenses by a special court composed of the highest justices; for general co-operation between the north and the south of a most p’romis- ing character, and for assistance from the British parliament to remedy the unemployment difficulties in Belfast,’ which render the carrying out of the previous Craig-CoIIlns pact almost Im­ possible.The fact that the representatives of the Dublin, Belfast and imperial governments, .set their signatures to such an agreement, is regarded In political circles as the most signifi­ cant and weighty happening since the Irish treaty was signed. The confer­ ence sat throughout the whole day but there always was a most hopeful and !,cheerful spirit manifested by all those participating-In. It. ^lrway to Panama Being Planned.

Nutt and his prohibition squadron returned to Mi-’ ami from Nassau and told of warn­ ings of personal violence received by them and what they believed was an attempt to sink- their boat during their visit to the British Bahama is­ land capital. A short time after their arrival in Nassau,, the American consul there warned them to be .on their guard, they declared. Two hours later while cruising in a glass bottom boat, they were approached by another boat car­ rying half a dozen rough looking indi­ viduals. “We will get you and your crowd if you don’t leave.Nassau,’’ one of the men aboard the other craft shouted. A number of women tourists aboard Colonel Nutt’s boat became excited and- the skipper turned back to the dock. CoIpnel Nutt shid that had there not been women aboard, he be­ lieved violence would have developed, The threat, according to the party, had nothing to do with their return to Miami. Considerable information came into possession of the prohibition men during their tour of investigation of liquor sources, Colonel Nutt said. Of­ ficials in Nassau, he stated, express, ed their desire to co-operate with him as much as possible. Nassau officials, it was Said, are investigating the “doctoring” of liquor, and the Bahama assembly adopted a resolution declaring it unlawful to im­ port. narcotics. * Colonel Nutt forwarded' a report of his recent visit to Havana and his Nassau visit to Prohibition Commis­ sioner Haynes.

Tlie 1921 season was the best ever known in the industry, 1,400 car­ loads of Louisiana berries being mar­ keted in 74 cities In the United States and Canada.. In Chicago the 24-pint crates brought as much as $6.50 each, and during practically the. entire mar­ keting season Louisiana strawberries sold At a higher price than any other berries on the market, due to the high quality of the product. • With such a record of achievement, much Interest centers in the opening of the’ 15)22 marketing season.- As heretofore a field station of the United States Tlepartment of Agriculture will be maintained in the Hammond dis­ trict during the season to keeppro- ducers and shippers informed daily of strawberry marketing conditions in the principal consuming markets, prevail­ ing prices, carlot shipments from com­ peting areas, and other marketing data essential in the scientific marketing of agricultural products, and granted favorable conditions the 1022 season should surpass even the 1921 record.

Cliicago is the principal'.market for the fruit, Detroit, Boston, Pitts­ burgh and New York ranking next in the order given. Heat, cold and distance—marketing obstacles that seemed Insurmountable a few years ago—have been overcome by the grow­ ers and shippers, and with continued careful selection, grading, packing and- shipping, ,marketing experts-say that the Industry will enjoy increasing prosperity. During the early years of the straw-, berryJndustry in Louisiana several va­ rieties of berries were grown, and Chi­ cago was the main market outlet. To­ day the Klondike variety is grown ex­ clusively, and Louisiana .strawberries have a wider distribution than the strawberries from any . other section of ..the country.. The, quality of the fruit is dependable, and there is every­ where a demand tor the berries. When picked the berries are carried to pack.-' ing sheds, where: practically eacli one , is handled separately. Both the 24- pint Hallo'ck crate and the 24-pint ventilated crate have been -used’ In packing the fruit, although during the past few seasons there Jias beenta con­ siderable, decrease in tiie use of HaK lqck’s crates, which’ are known locaiiy as “coffin” crates. Practically all grow­ ers are now using ventilated crates, as berries shipped in such containers ar-. rive at market In’sound condition and usually command s premium over the price paid for berries In ndn-ventilated crates, . , j -V': " Train»Jof Strawberries. Fully 00 per- cent of 'the marketed, crop is shipped by express, the" rail­ road company providing two or three express fnilt trains daily. These tfains run on a schedule of dOinlles ah hour, which ptftsthe fruit on the Chicago- market before daylight the ; second morning. •Less'' than carload Ship-, ments are cared for by the express company, rMiRA'"' operates1 locil -lMd' cars to pick up small sldpmentm The .growers.have good transportation faf duties, deliveries.fee prompt,"and few instances are known where .cars have not "arrived at destination ;on. time- Strawberry buyers. ^in,ythe,laige consmningmnrketa Aestablish .head-, quarters at Hammond^ during the mar­ keting season,, Sales being .made on a" cash f. 0. b.

Perhaps tlie’principal reason for the prosperity enjoyed by Louisiana’s berry growers is that they keep them­ selves closely informed upon day-to- day market conditions. The producers appreciate that "knowing the markets” enables them to meet the consumers' desires as regards quality and quan­ tity,- and that to overstock one -mar­ ket when another market is undersup­ plied is unsound from both an econom­ ic and financial viewpoint Every day during the marketing season a daily report of conditions and prices at 'the principal marketing centers through­ out the country is issued by the local representative of the" United States Department of Agriculture. Tliis in­ formation is. obtained by trained mar­ ket reporters at consuming points. The growers are also informed as to daily carlot shipments, "everywhere In the United States. -Thus the pro­ ducers not only know the prices be­ ing paid for berries at the various con­ suming markets, but. exactly what competition may be expected from other sections shipping strawberries at about the same time. The depart­ ment also furnishes daily information regarding temperature and weather conditions, so that the necessary icftig and refrigeration can be provided for the shipments. * Information for Growers. The department’s station at Ham­ mond was opened in 1915, and/was the first field station established anywhere by the; United States Department of- Agriculture for the. Issuance of mar­ ket news reports. ^ Here, in the-heart of Louisiana’s strawberry producing district, arrangements were first made to study methods of packing, ship­ ping, and distributing strawberries in the United States ; to keep growers in­ formed of strawb.erry movements. from other regions, and to inform them daily of prices and conditions In the lead­ ing consuming markets. Hammond, was selected as the location for’the department’s first field station because of the large proportions that the Louis^_ iana strawberry industry had attained. Louisiana then ranked fourth In com­ mercial strawberry importance. To­ day-the state ranks second in carlot shipments, t ROUND POSTS MOST DURABLE One Kind of Timber Will Last as Long as Others if Amount of Heartwood Is-Jhe Same. _ Is a. split fence post as durable as a round fence post? This is a question frequently askesLof the United States Department of Agriculture. The fact is, says the forest products laboratory, one kind of post will last about as long as the other if the amount of heartwood is the same in both. But if the percentage of sapwood is in­ creased by splitting, the split post will be less durable and if the percentage of heartwood is increased, it will be more durable tha‘n a round one. Posts of spguce, Iiemlock, or any of the true firs are' exceptions to this* rule, be­ cause their heartwood and sapwood • are about equally' durable. ; . Wlien posts are to be treated witlf creosote 6r.otlier_presefvatIve,- a round post is preferable to a split post, be­ cause of the comparative ease with which the sapwood can be treated. The heart faces on split posts do not, as a rate, .absorb preservative well.

A great LESSEN BROODINESS OF HENS ed to a catarrhal coadip0„ Ot the mucous membrasM lining the organs or part? PE-RU-NA Every ' Ambitious and Enthusiastia Poultryman Tries-to Restrict Its Development. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.)Broody hens, like wayward^ children, are a great discredit to their parents and a source »f annoyance to all who have to do with'them. That is why one-of the greatest concerns of every ambitious and enthusiastic poultry- inan is to restrict the appearance and development - of broodiness in his !lock, ’!he United States Department of Agriculture has found that broOdl- ness can be reduced very markedly by careful, rigid and persistent selec­ tion". i / . 'At the Massachusetts -experiment Station, where a detailed experimental stiidv.of Iiroodiness has been made, it The Early Hatched Pullet is the-One That Begins to Lay Early' in the Fall. s. os ascertained that previous to the practice of, selection the average hen in tiie -flock ifcas broody 3.S8 times a year.. After painstaking selection-was practiced’for five years,, this tendency to. brobUiness was reduced so that the average egg producer in the flock de­ veloped broodiness only 0.36 times a year. A study of the correlations be- .tween broodiness and egg production shows that pullets that are very broody tend to lay relatively few eggs be­ tween their broody periods.. There is no one dominant cause of tiPoodiness among poultry.' Genetical­ ly, there occur four distinct types of nonbroodiness and. one of broodiness. It Is believed that birds showing only a slight tendency to broodiness belong In -the sanie class as the nonbroody fowls, as, each has about the same proportion of broody offspring. The determination of b'roodiness Is com­ plicated by the fact that birds that are not broody during the pullet year may ,become broody during their sec­ ond or third laying season: PROPER EGGS FOR HATCHING California College Institutes New ^Project for Improvement of Poultry Flocks. For the improvement of poultry by careful selection of breeding stock,, the poultry ,department of the division of extension work of the California Col­ lege of Agricultnre has instituted a new project with the hatcherymen of Alamuda county. Previous to this time, the assertions "of the "egg dealer were the only guide' to those1 who bought eggs for hatching and" dealt-.in Baby .chicks, as to the quality, of the eggs they were getting. There was op­ portunity for frequent abuse or confi­ dence in the business.. Under the present-plan about 20,000 birds have -been inspected, by poultry exports, and .those which have met th'e .requirements' decided upon for weight, egg production, size and shape of eggs, and other points, have been accepted as-eligible for the'production of eggs for . hatching.

To go through with a friendly heart and an open mind? To have abiding faith in others and yourself? Also to lift yourself higher? ^ Then go to church regularly, for the chiurch{?can educate and broaden you in these and a thousand khd one other ways. Go to church faithfully and you will be amazed at the goodly re­ ward there is in it for you, The time to go to church is every Sunday.

Stone, of the. Chicago Department of Health in a speech recently before; the State Health Commission of Chicago. .“There 4s too much prudery going on today,” he said. “I can see nothing wrong in a young man becoming affection ate if the young woman is willing and it is done under proper safe­ guards.” Yeah! Proper safeguards? We’ll bet our last dollar that no Union county young man will kiss his girl when-her daddy or mammy is chap- eronin.’ Dr. Stone may be talking about city folks, but out here in the country there is still some respect for-the proprieties; Justto show .how rapidly this country is drif ting into , paternal­ ism, or bureaucracy, or red tapeism let me recite vvhat happens .-when a mained or helpleSS;t>erson is found in Union county and who needs out­ side assistance. Public Welfare Officer Snyder finds, for instance, a man who needs help and that &t once. The law makes its obligatory for the officer to report the case to a committe, -which is a good, one consisting of W. M. Gordon, J. A Steward and C._ W. Orton. These in turn investigate Mr. Snyder's “find” and report to the Bureau of Maimed at Afflicted at Raleigh. An agent is sent out from Raleigh, he of course coming by rail, stop­ ping at the best hotel in the city, nd of course going to the best of style,-for is hi not spending the people’s tax mbney? The gentle­ man hires a car to go out and see the poor man who needs assistance. He repores back to the Bureau for the Maimed and Afflicted at Ral­ eigh. Maybe, if the poor man is not dead by this time, he gets recommendation to get some assis­ tance, provided his case is passed on favorably. Mr. Suyder’s hands are tied. His initiative is taken from him, as well as that of the local committee to a great extent by a maze of red tape. Why, more money is often spent in ‘'.investi­ gating’ ’ than is spent on the. crip­ pled -man. Good gosh!—Monroe Enquirer. Hickory Chips.

We referred some time ago to'the $700,000 increased .-burden to be placed upon parents on account of the change of text books. A parent sho.yved .us-some'-iettws* that shinv-hoW-parentsare treated. t, He was requested tp get ^a new first reader for his child and was asked 7.5 cents for it and would not pay the price. - • . He wrote the. State Superintend- end, Wlio wrote the publisher, and the publisher wrote ■ the parents that the book was sold for 48 cents to the local bookseller plus tlie freight or carriage, and no risk on the part of the dealer as to the books being left over. Thus our parent got it in the neck on all sides. The officers changed books and add new burd- ens—the book dealer hits -them a- nother lick and thus we go from bad to worse—Newton News-Enter­ prise.

He said he hesitated to say niuch about the doctors as he mtghtiieed one, that these men are always trying 10. work themselves out dpa job, while their mistakes proceed them to the graveyard. The pteachers came in for a bi share aqf criticism and .the speaker celared that this profession is not free from hoboes by any means. Society was almost skinned alive on accoiiift of some of the present day customs. He says there are both hoboes and-hoboines in society with plenty of room for improvement. Lexington Dispatch.

E-Iitor of Davie Record:—A few words in regard to the Bonus which we ex service' men have not got. I think the Republican party pro­ mised a bonus to the ex-ser\i:e men when they Wore elected and it ap­ pears that some of the Congressmen in Washington are striving hard to get a bonus bill through. But it is mightv slow in coming and many of the former doughboys are hungry and lots are in need of clothes for the cold March wind and a roof over their heads. Somewhere around half a million beys who risked their lives for our country are walking the streets of our cities [sore-footed and weary, looking for jobs which they cannot find . ' The American people seem very tender-hearted and generous where the starving Europeans and Heathen Chinese are concerned, but when it conns to advocating a little compen­ sation for the boy who kept the Hnn from their dcors they seem to shy away from it. It is very noble and kind to help the Stampg Europeans but how can you throw the key to your purse to tlierrt and let your own sons that would gladly and willingly have given their life’s blood to save you from something worse than death-go hungry and sleep in box cars or on lumber piles. . The American people give hundreds of thousands’;of dollars to send mis- ; sionaries to China eacli y< a- and right! here in your own land thousands Ofi your noble-sons are hungry and cold, j We do not v/ant a bonus because our j patriotism was the dollar kinr1, butj we do want a Fquare deal, we were' laying in the-trenches in mud, snow j and ice two feet deep with machine gun bullets, shrapnel, high explosive and poison gas above and around us. Pracing death by freezing and ex­ posure as well as by bullets and gas We were hiking sometimes forty and fifty miles without rest, sleep or food, our feet were so sore and bruised that it seemed that we would die with pain of it, but we were doing our duty towatd the land and peo­ ple we love and were proud of it, never complaining at all, and our pay was $1,10 per day. Men with bullet­ proof government jobs who were unskilled in everything but “dodging work,” were getting as high as $15.00 per day, a^nice soft bed to sleep in, a fire to keep their feet- from freezing,#plenty of good food and a big-time. They werenot a bit better than we were but the Wilson Administration thought so. We ex- service men feel, that we have not had a square deal from the Demo­ crats, andit is up to the Republicans to step forward and try to right the wrong given us by the “Wilson- ites” in the war that Wilson kept us out of. I spent 24 months in-Europe, was in 10 eneagements. Went over the top more times than I had a de­ cent place to sleep and hiked more miles on an empty stomach than Idid on a full one, and I know what I am writing about. We are depending on the Republican administration to give us a square deal- and, think' they will not disappoint us.

ROUTE CRASH . : TO .EARTH-- 2 NEW Y0RKE8S «M0N6 DEAD MLL DEPORT AUEII “i n ” HOUSE VOTES THREE JO ONE FOR DEPORTATION OF ALlEN “TIGERS.” Cesoribed by Prohibition Advocates As Step Toward Better Law Enforcement. W ashington. ■— By a vote of more tlian three to one, the house passed and sent to the senate a bill authoriz­ ing tlie importation of- aliens convict­ ed in the state or federal courts on charges oi having violated the nar­ cotic and Volstead acta. Described by prohibition advocates as a step toward better law. enforce­ ment. and characterized by Represen­ tative Graham, Pennsylvania, ranking republican on the judiciary committee, as "a monstrous piece of legislation,”' the bill as presented Jby the immigra­ tion committee stood up agaipst all at­ tacks. A motion to re-commit so that.the provision relating to conviction in the state courts might be eliminated was defeated and the measure was put through, as framed, 222 to 73. ’ Hepresentative Walsh, ‘republican, Massachusetts, a member of the ju­ diciary committee, which wrote the original Volstead act, and who offered the motion to recommit, declared he 'believed now that the enforcement law was made too drastic at the start. ■ Warning was sounded to prohibition­ ists by many members, including Rep­ resentative Mann, republican, Illinois, a veteran in the house, that they are ,going too far, that there was danger of disrupting the whole system of law enforcement and that Jurors would lie unwilling to convict those who ought to go to jail if it also meant deportation. There were many references to the Anti-Saloon league and -Wayne B. :Wheeler, its general counsel. ‘ Repre­ sentative Hill, republican, Maryland, charged that “the American bootleg­ gers' union” and the league were staflding hand-in-hand and fighting un­ der one banner to get the alien boot­ leggers out of business. Mr. Walsh said that Mr. Wheeler could not be classed by the bootleggers as an- en­ emy. “since he is the man who has made it possible for thenrto ply their trade." The Entrlre Personnel o f Both Plane* Meet. Death, Except Pilot Duke of the English Craft, Pari*. — Six persons were UUed when airplanes on the Paris-London aerial express route collided over the village of Thleulloy, 70 miles north of Paris, and crashed. to. earth. The dead are: Bruce Yale, a New York exporter, and his wife, who- were homeward bound by way of England >ln the French machine. M. Bouriez, another passenger in the French craft. Aviator Mire, pilot of the French machine. Mire’s mechanic. and cabin boy of English machine. The entire personnel of both planes except Pilot R. E. Duke, of the Eng­ lish craft, met. death in-the crash or in the flames that followed it. The aerial express service between London and' Paris ' was started ■ in the spring of 1919 and has come to be regarded as one of the dependable means of transportation between the two capitals. At first only patron­ ized by travelers, of an adventurous turn .of mind, who wanted to have the thrill of air travel,-it has devel­ oped within the last two years, with- the element of danger reduced to the minimuu into a steady daily route. The trlp is made in a little more- than two hours and at least half of the passengers have been women. - 'Prominent officials, have frequently availed themselves of .the air route to attend hastily called conferences In either Paris or London. During the peace conference Bonar Law, of the British delegation, made his hur­ ried trip back to London to attend to routine official business, often re­ turning the same day.

Washington.—Enactment of the ad­ ministration’s shijp subsidy bills with­ out radical change is the hope of President Harding and shipping board officials, Chairman Lasker told mem­ bers of the senate commence and house merchant marine committee at the opening session of joint ^hearings on the measure. Declaring that the shipping board 'stands fast” for the general princi­ ples embodied in the program - en­ dorsed by the President, Mr. LaBker expressed the opinion that “any radi­ cal change Iii the proposals might re­ sult In the destruction of. the whole.11 After he-had read a lengthy state­ ment In which, he contended that gov­ ernment operation not ■- only had proved a ,“costly failure,” but was driving private ownerf off the seas, the shipping board' head became the target for a rapid fire, of questions, most of them ; from democratic mem­ bers of the house committee. Fre­ quent verfial clashes between Mr. Las- ker arid Represnetatlv.e Hardy,; Texas;” ranking democrat of the_houae com­ mittee, marked the cross-examination. Quizzed by Representative Briggs, democrat, Texas,! as to. the board’s experience with ship operators, Mr. Lasker said ha had. a “suspicion that a'few operators have, purposely abus- M their operation privileges" to prove government-operation a failure.. The chairman added that he would hot make any - specific charges on this point. E WESS PROMISED North ,Carolina Textiles Inerease Their Forees—Leading Cities Re- - port Surplus Labor. Guard Shot Down' by Bootlegers. . Baltimore.—A band of bootleggers —btofed up to the Gwynnbrook Dls- tllleiy, 15 miles northwest of Baltl-j Washington. — Increased employ-, ment ranging up to 28 per cent over the preceding, month was ' reported' to the employment service of the de­ partment of labor from 43 tOj 65 rep­ resentative cities for the month end­ ing March SI. The automobile and allied industries, iron and steel and their products and lumber headed‘the trades showing .improved activity. The net increase for the country, fig­ ured on reports from '1,428 firms, was 2.5 per cent. Denver led the reporting cities with, an -increase In employment In March of 28.2 per cent. Memphis was second with 18.1. The South indicated generally im­ proved employment tone during the month of March, the report said, with Indications that further progress would be recorded in the thirty days. Despite some slackness in textiles, Yirginiai industries trere. more active as . a whole; and the outlook-was con­ sidered good. Lumber and fertilizer shared the increase in workers in Georgia during the past month. Atlanta reported "a little improvement in th'e Industries,” the demand for labor being about 8 per cent over that of January. Sa­ vannah indicated textile, lumber and repair shops more active, but not suf­ ficiently so to assimilate all available labor. North Carolina- textiles increased their forces In March, and the lead­ ing cities reported surplus labor be­ ing rapidly absorbed. In South Carolina, textiles receded slightly but improved In lumber and chemical trades more than made good the recession. The housing sit­ uation in the state has been much relieved, reports to . the employment service said. '* Unemployment in Florida was re­ ported as :“confined principally to common labor,” with the demand for fann help equal to the' supply. ! Hardwood mills In Tennessee were said to- be offsetting to 'some extent :the decreased mining activity, with' "unemployment now prevalent among skilled: rather than unskilled labor- ers.” • Alabama mines increased produc­ tion up to the last: day of the month and marked- improvement was ahoym in the iron and steel trades. The out­ look promised a large farm acreage this season. Cotton mills In Mississippi were working “full time with a full force' in March and the majority ' of the lumber mills were on full. time, re­ ports to the service said. - General Semenoff Arrested.

The reason is plain—the article did-not fulfill the promises of the manufacturer. This applies more particularly to a medicine. A medicinal preparation 'that has real curative vglne almost sells itself, as like an endless chain . system the remedy is recommended by those.- who have been benefited, to those who are in need of it.

The second watch, with which was the faction’s leader, bad a nightcap of the vitriolic whisky, flung itself sprawling on the ground and straightway went to sleep. The first watch sat around the crackling brushwood fire and played cards for chews of tobacco, cartridges and pocket knives, sang strange and outlandish sorfgs and drank more whisky. One very drunk Torrey gam­ bled away all his tobacco, all his . cart­ ridges, hife knife, his rifle and his belt; his coat and his hat, his boots and hig. shirt—and offered to bet his trousers and his ears on the turn 0 a single card! It was funny, and .it was dis­ gusting, too. It was all the work of whisky, which Bill Dale had always hated because it made men fools, made them mouth their secrets and made them commit murder. . . . After some two hours of these worse than bacchanalian orgies the first watch, heavy with drink, stopped play­ ing cards and singing outlandish songs, forgot all orders and began to nod. Then it was that Dale thought of the man who had been his faithful guardian for many days, the lanky By Heck. Why hadn’t he thought of Heck before? He wondered if Heck had followed him to the trap, if Heck was near him even then, if Heck had gone for help. By Heck had not followed Bill Dale to the little basin. But he had fol­ lowed Henderson Goff, and Henderson Goff had followed Dale to" the little basin. Goff had returned to the Big Pine Mountain country only that, day and he knew, nothing of the plans of the Ball-Torrey faction untll he wit­ nessed the mockery of a trial. Goff was now crouching in the darkness on the low line of cliffs to the eastward from the walnut tree; and not far behind him, well hidden in the black laurels, watching him and watching Bill Dale, crouched By Heck. Dale’s guardian had not gone for help, because he feared to leave Dale utterly unprotected in the hands of the gang of cutthroats. He believed that he could rescue Dale himself. When the first watch became a little more drowsy, he would steal up be­ hind the tree and cut. the cotton rope. Then he realized that Goff had dis­ appeared entirely. He crept forward silently, his eyes alert, and a moment later he saw Goff stealing toward the walnut tree. He climbed noiselessly down over the face of the cliff and followed Goff like a shadow. When Goff’s hands touched the tree, By Heck was within ten feet of it. Heck made sure his rifle was ready and took an­ other step forward, watching, listen­ ing. The shyster coal man leaned around the tree to the left. In the glow of 'the low-burned fire the blade of a . small Tinife in his hand gleamed dull red. He whispered .cautiously: “Youre in a fix, Dale. And .it’s none of my doing, either. Give me your word that I’ll get that coal prop­ erty for fifteen thousand, and TH ,slash the rope. How about it? Sick of this country, aren’t you?” ' There came a few seconds of silence ■save for the fflsty snoring of the sleep- ■;ers and the musical tinkle of the little creek, after which Goff muttered dis­ appointedly : • "Well, then, hang!” And Heck knew that Dale had re­ fused to sell the Moreland coal for a song even to save his life. As Goff stepped backward, the muzzle of the tall hillman’s rifle went against the email of his back, and the tall hillman Whispered hoarsely, through teeth tightly clenched: “Slash ’at - rope, d—n yore soul ISlash ’at rope, or I wisht I may drap dead ef I don’t shoot yore backbone into four thousand pieces, igod! Slash It!” Goff straightened In surprise. -The rifle’s muzzle went harder .against bis back and he knew it for exactly what it was. He moved a hand upward, then downward and tie cotton rope w as severed in half a dozen places. "Stlddy thar, now!” whispered 6y Heck, and het began to bade away. "Come along V f me, ye dadslatted, bflnjer-bellied skunk. Bill he’ll foller.’ The three of them hurried into the deeper shadows. Soon■■ Heck halted <Goff end turned to Dale. ’ “S'arch him fo’ a gun. Bill, old boy.’ Dale lifted from Hendegson Goff’s right-hand coat-pocket a blued and :Stub-nosed magazine pistol. t’Dang my- eyes and blast my for- rard!” Hick exclaimed In 'a- muffled voice. "He’s plumb death on them !!Ittle popguns, ain’t be? Say, Goff, ,ef ever ye shoots inetwith a thing like Ithat and I find it but, danged ef I don’t ■ gpenk ye ontei yore nose bloods; Now, le’s go. you’uns. .And ef ye jest cheep out a ngfse. Mister Goff, the buzzards will plck the neat offen yore bones afore tomorrer night," ;.“Mbve, shyster!” , frowned Bill Dale. • By Heck l.ed the. way to the: line -of lCBffs to the westward. .Xbey had climbed the rugged wall and were about to set out through the pitchy dark woodland, when . a voice that they knew well hailed them softly from the laurels -to their left: “Hold on. thar!"- “John Moreland, by jiggers!” mut­ tered Heck.Moreland hastened soundlessly to them. “I reckon ye didn’t mean no harm, By,” he said in .tones that ex­ pressed a deep regret, “but yit I shore wtsht ye hadn’t ha’ done it.” Samuel Heck was very proud of himself. He straightened there in the ddrkD6Sis>•What’n the name o’ the devil makes ye wisht sech a thing as that, John?” he demanded In a half angry voice. " ’Cause,” growled the big hillman, “you went and sp’iled h—I -out o’ the main big picnic. We meant to wipe out all o’= them thar lowdown Balls and Torreys, By, When they went to Vang Bill Dale in the momin’, we’d ha’ had a good reason fo’ a-kiilin’ ’em every­ one—the weasels!

Me and Ben Lit- tleford was on our way atter. more dynamite, when we seed Bill Dale a-follerin’ that stranger man, and Goff a-follerin’ Bill, and you a-foUerta’ Goft We kDowed somethin’ ongodly mean was In the wind. . So I follered you, By, a-breakin’ off bushes as I -went to mark the trail, and Ben he went hack and got the rest of ’em and fol­ lered me.” Then to Dale, “Well, Bill, what’re we a-goin’ to do with this here cussed polecat Goff?" . , Dal.e turned to the shyster coal man, who was still being elosely watched by Heck. ' ' “I told you I was pretty apt to thrash you the next time we met, didn’t I?” clipped Dale. “Do you want to get out of this country for good, or do.you want to fight me to a fin­ ish? .I’m through talking right now, Goff.” “Td guess I’d rather fade,” acknowl­ edged -Goff. “Then fade!” Goff slunk off through the brush. When they had covered a mile, John Moreland grasped Dale by an arm and said to Eim: ‘I reckon you think we’re sort o’ blood­ thirsty/ by us a-waitin’ to kill off that pack back thar; don’t ye? Well, we ain’t blood-thirsty, Bill. Them Balls and Torreys ain’t wo’th nothin’ to thetreelves, nor to their famblies, nor to nobody else.. The sooner they’re dead the better off they’ll be, and the better off their famblies’ll be, and the better off everybody else will pe. Tou ain’t safe, nor I ain’t.safe, as long as they’re alive. We like you; Bill Dale,” he contin­ ued gravely. “And you’re shore wo’th it. Ton wouldn’t sell out to that cussed polecat, even to save yore own lifel and ’at’s what I calls narve and principle in ye." Bill Dale, the’ ain’t many men In this here whole outfit who wouldn’t give ye the last d—d drop o’ blood In their bodies, ef ye needed it. To the right.

The Moreland Coal company’s two big rough buildings were completed in record time. There had been no further manifestations of interference from the Balls and Torreys, and Hen­ derson Goff had been nowhere in evi­ dence-'since the night of Bill Dale’s ironclad verbal ultimatum. Work on the little railroad was progr«stog like wildfire, and everybody was In Mgh spirits. By Heck had just arrived with the mail.' He stalked with an air of great importance into Dale’s - office, and threw the mail down On .the new roll­ top desk; then he stepped backward, dropped into a straight-back chair and began to nurse Ms ' rifle tenderly on his knees. There was a puzzled look cm his leathery face. Dale had re­ ceived halt a ' dozen letters, and By Heck was' at a loss to figure but the why of such an overwhelming amount OfmaiL Dale finished Ms figuring, leaped back in bis swivel chair and took up a letter that seemed altogether too' bulky for a business .letter. More­ over, Its address was in pencil, and somewhat scrawled, though a chirog- raphy expert would have said that the -handwriting showed strength of Character: ; “I wonder who it is,” Dale muttered, “that mistakes us for, a newspaper office and is -sending us copy?” “Jest what I was .a-thlnkin’,’ drawled By Heck through his Niagara FaUs mustache. “Open her up, Bill; mebbe It’s money, by Jake I” - Dale saw the’ postmark then, and his' brows, drew with interest. It was the. postmark of his Md home City. “From Babe,” he told himself—and 'ibwaa-. ' . He opened it and read It.’ .She had most of her wbrds cenrectly, IlttwiW “Open Her lip, Bill, Mebbe it’s Money, by Jake!" herhart pat said, pat said the only hold Mrs. Dale has on her son is through you elizabeth and She is a sad and remorsefle woman., then i got to thinking bill i mite be the cause Of bringing peece between you and yore parrents and so I told pat !.would go and i did.

Bill Dale folded the bulky letter and put it slowly back into the envel­ ope. Then his gaze wandered through a window and to where a golden- wlnged hlgh-holer was hammering in­ dustriously at the top branch of a dead tree.. He smiled to himself, By Heck and nearly all of the rest of the world for the moment forgotten, and muttered aloud: “ Tores respectively, Babe.’ ” “Haw, haw, haw!” Iaugbed the keen­ eared and watchful hillman in the straight-back chair behind him. “ Tores respectively, Babe!’ Haw, haw, haw! Well. BilL dadsling it, It shorely to goodness ain’t nothin’ to turn all that red about! When the night’s gone the day comes, don’t it? Bill, old boy, it’s the same thing!” “Ton get out of here. By!” Dale stormed in mock severity. “Go and help the commissary clerk with the new goods; eh?' Heck laughed another horselaugh, rose and went out. When he had gone, Dale began to think—of the ultra-spoiled, charming- after-n-fashion, wealthy, young, high- night devotee, Jimmy Fayne. -And he wondered, and wondered, what would come of Fayne’s quick liking for Babe Littleford. After he had viewed the matter from above and below and all sides around, he frowned like a berserker. Here is what came of Jimmy Fayne’s quick liking for-Babe Littleford— *•*'** The days had passed swiftly, and au­ tumn was far advanced. Save for few chrysanthemums and asterk that grew in places sheltered from the frosts, the flowers were all gone; the maples were shedding their leaves of brown, crimson and gold. Ben Littleford’s daughter had changed much in manx ways. She had tried as hard as ever mortal tried to learn the correct use of words; and Mrs. Dale had been patient, painstak­ ing and efficient in her teachings. Not that Hiizabeth was educated, in any real sense of the word.’ Far from it But'her improvement was,-In all truth, quite remarkable. She wore more or less costly gowns now, and a few jewels, thanks to Mrs. Dale, and wherever she went she attracted ad­ miring glances. Jimmy Fayne fiad been Coming to see her . when Mrs. Dale would per­ mit Iti wMch was not very often. Jim- my Fayne, as Patriria McLaurin had once, been moved to say, was a fab seeing young man for all his weak­ nesses; be had known In advance that the laurri bloom would change to a rose, and, then to a white hyacinth. Perimps he even considered the fact that she would make a better wife for Mm/ and a better mother'for his chil­ dren, than some fragile and over-cul­ tured woman of a patrician house tbsy had about run out At any rate, Jim­ my Fayne, the ultra-spoiled, had de­ rided lfiat he would marry her. • During those weeks that had been made happy by an occasional-hour at the home of the Dries, Fayne had not once mentioned marriage. He figured, and wisely enough, that to be too quick with his proposal would be to lose everything. But now he meant to propose, forhe knew that Miss Littleford intended go­ ing home for a visit—and he knew that when she went home , she would see Garlyle Dale. The truth was, of course, that Miss Uttleford was go- tog to Tennessee to attend the Oc­ tober term of court at Cartersville. .. It was a Uttle after the. middle of a bright afternoon. He found her' sit- ttogon an iron settee to a secluded corner of the lawn, where cape jessa- -mtoes and IHac bushes grew In order­ ly array. She wore a light wrap, and there was-an easy-to-read book In' her hands; but she wasn’t trytog to read at the moment Ife--bored hlg head, greeted her smile that was very winsome.. He stated his mission briefly, for Mrs. Dale might appear a t any mto- BtX came, Elizabeth, to ask you to “ gbe sat".as still as though she had not heard. He went on hastily: - “I confess that Tm a Uttle ashamed of trying to take you away from Car­ lyle Dale, for he was always very nice to me. But I may be forgiven for that I think, because I care for you r ^ a t d S . A nyw ay-A U tofM r love and war*—you know, yyift voice was- hardly businesslike* b u t j t lacked original fire. Elizabeth LittlefordvClosed the book In her lap, and lifted her dear brown eyes to Ma eager face. . ..'No,** she disagreed, “all ain t—Isn t fair to love and war. That’s, one o’ the very silliest sayto’s Tve ever heard. As for the other—I like you, Jimmy, but not In the way you want me to. It’s Bill Dale that I like—to that way, Jimmy.” „Fayne looked disappointed. He was silent. „ .ffYouTe a good boy, Jimmy, she went on, “and I hate to make you feel the least bit bad. It makes me— oh, Jimmy, it makes me blue. I wish ’" U m' '**■ lfThere Is No Better Girl Than You, Elizabeth. Tm Going to-fiVait, ant Hope.” you hadn't asked me. Pm sure you’ll find some better girl than me—than I —for a wife.” “There is no better girl than yon, Elizabeth. I'm going to wait—and hope.” He took up one of her hands and kissed it, rose and went toward the street Before he had gone a minute, she rose, her face a littie pale, and stared after him, sorely tempted—for Fayne’s money could bring her peoplt out of their long night of ignorance! Well, if she didn’t marry BUl Dah —and she feared that she wouldn’t— she would marry Jimmy Fayne, if Iu still wanted her—if he would agrei to help her people. After aIL it wasn’ so much to- give. What -was one poo little, unhappy' human Ufe? It was late, that night, when EU abeth Xflttieford went to sleep. An when at last she slept she dreamed <- walking through a fragrant greei meadow' with BUl Dale. There Vai the low humming of wild bees abotr the purple crowns of the ironweed am' the scarlet bloom of the riover; then was* the mating call of the partridge and the lovelorn coo of a dove. . (TO BE CONTINUED.) Beads for Insulation. "In certain .installations, such at radio.equipement, arc lamp wiring and laboratory apparatus, it is often nec­ essary to resort to beads for insular- tog bare wires. Heretofore, says the Scientific American, the beads have been iff a plain design, with rounded ends, resulting to -a rigid -covering which prevented the covered wire from being bent as desired, or left bared sections 'of the wire between the beads because fewer lSeads had to be strung to order to aUow for bending. An English' concent has recently Introduced a new type of bead Which to rounded at one end and hpUowed out at the other, thus permitting of one bead fitting Into the'hollow of the next bead. These beads permit of covering a wire for Its full length, yet do not interfere with the bending' of said wire. - -Needless Fretting. Speaking of needless worries, we are reliably informed of a Cbap -who fret­ ted himself sick for two weeks because .he had swiped' an umbrella ta 'a res­ taurant. /He went around growing pale and kept looking over his shoul­ der on rainy days, fearing that the owner might pop up. After the second painful week of, this sort of thing he told his wife.about It, and proposed ta send the.umbrella to the poUce lost de- partmenb “What I" .she. screamed. “Why, you boob; this ls'the umbreUa I bought yfiu Christmas, and here are your Mtfaii worked Inside tile cover I” - I t bad. merely , been tnvaUnc thr rounds of fellow swipere.

I., are an eloquent tribute to the powers of Tanlac, the greatest family medicine the world has ever known. •■I’ve put Tanlac to the test four tunes right in my own family and It Jiusn-! failed me once,” declared Mr. Gingras. “My wife, my soil and. my daughter, as well as myself, have all been built up from a half-sick, run­ down, worn-out set of people Into a healthy, happy family brimful of new life and energy.” And the experience of this family is onlv typical of thousands of others whose statements are on file In ’the Tanlac offices. Hardly a day passes that does not bring scores of such mes­ sages of praise from every part of the United States and Canada from fami­ lies where mother, father, son and daughter have all found health, con­ tentment and the joys of living through simply taking a course of Tanlac. Take, for instance, the case of John AVldner1 1571 Hoosevelt Ave., Los An­ geles, Calif., who says: "My wife, my­ self and little boy are now as healthy, happy family as you will ever see— and It’s all due to Tanlac.” Or that of Mrs. John Marquis and her family of sixteen living in Man­ chester, N. H., at 292 Belmont St. She says: ‘‘Tanlac has been the only medicine used in our house for two .years and it has kept every one of the sixteen here in the best of health.” In Chtengo, Prank R. Richards, of 441 South Wood St., writes: “We will never be without Tanlac in our house after the remarkable way it has built up my wife, my son and myself to where we are the very picture of health." Represientative of New York is the case of Chas. E. Van Colt’s family, re­ siding at 129 Fourth Ave^ Albany, He says: “Every member of our family Is enthusiastic over Tanlac. It’s certainly a medicine for all the family.” From far-away Canada comes this message: “My little girl, my son and myself are all enjoying splendid health now and Tanlac brought It aU about.” Mrs. Bert Hewer, 193 East Avenue, Toronto, Ontario. “We call Tanlac 'The Family Medi­ cine’ here In our Virginia home, be­ cause it restored my mother and sister to perfect health, just the same as It has done me,” is the enthusiastic statem ent' of Mrs. J. F. Robertson, Danville, Va. And on through the list, men, women and children from every state In the Union and every province of Canada unhesitatingly come forward and tell in words ringing with sincerity of the wonderful benefits of health and hap­ piness that Tanlac has brought into their homes that were formerly dark­ ened by the gloom of sickness, suffer­ ing and despair. And should yours' be one of those homes where any member 6f the fam­ ily Is thin, run down and weakened from loss of appetite, caused by indi­ gestion and stomach troubles, yon have at your very door the means that will no doubt bring- the snnshine of vlgdr- ous health back -into their lives and yours, just as It has done in so many thousands of other cases.

HAD TO HAVE" CONSERVATO RY Most Parents of Six Marriageable Daughters Will Sympathize With This Home Seeker. Charles M. Schwab said at a recep­ tion In New York: “The world is hankering after dis­ armament and universal peace as the househunter -hankered after a conserv­ atory. , ' “A househufiter was looking for a cheap, smallish house with a large con­ servatory. The agent showed him a number of houses, but as they all lacked conservatories the hunter turned them down. Finally the agent said in a disgusted tone: “ ‘Of course I thought your conserv­ atory idea was just a whim. A cheap nine-room house with a conservatory! Why, mafi, it ain’t to be found. What’s the reason you’re so' crazy after a con­ servatory,-anyhow ?’ “ ‘Well, "confidentially,’ said the househunter, ‘it’s like this. Wife and I have got hix daughters, and all six have had young fellows kind of spark­ in’ round ’em for a long, long time; so what we need, you see, is a conserva­ tory.

The hair net milady wears would clothe several orphan children In Ar­ menia for more than six months. That is, the cost of them would. Even Ar­ menian orphans are sometimes more modest than milady. Experts have figured that $1.80 will completely attire In unbleached mus­ lin garments a child of the For East relief orphanages of the Transcauca­ sian famine zones for six months. And expertq also figure that milady’s bill for hair nets during a like period would be in considerable excess of that amount, depending upon—well, upon several things. Hair nets are of un­ certain durability under any circum­ stances. And milady is not always over cautious. Even an expert hesi­ tates to hazard some guesses. The Near East relief-has just pur­ chased 300,000 yards of unbleached muslin-for summer garments for its wards in Transcaucasia.

(Prepared bjf tho Dnltml Statea Dopartment of Agriculture.) Therfe Is great activity In the Texas onion fields these' days in preparation for the rapidly approaching market­ ing season. The-commercial acreage planted to. Bermuda onions Is. esti­ mated by the United' States Depart­ ment of Agriculture at 12,117 acres, and It is forecast that 11,522 acres will be harvested. Thi^ compares with 10,503 acres harvested in 1921; ‘ . ' As heretofore the Department of Agriculture will maintain a field sta­ tion at Larego to keep the growers and shippers informed of market con­ ditions generally throughout the coun­ try. Carlot shipments, available sup­ plies, ^prices, weather conditions, and the many, factors that affect the mar­ keting .-.'of- onions will be reported to the growers daily. ■■ Financial success in producing and marketing Bfermuda onions is possible' only when the* economic relation be­ tween the northern-grown winter stor­ age crop and the perishable Bermuda crop is taken into consideration, say federal marketing experts. The Texas crop‘is marketed in a period of two months, and the highest type of mar­ keting efficiency is required. There may be a large carry-over of northern- grown storage onions; the markets for the Bermuda crop are a long distance from producing points^ with consequent high costs- for transportation ; T>ad weather may quickly impair tbe qual­ ity of the stock f the crop may be larger than the country can consume; and toward the end of the season there is competition from other early producing states. ’ -■? ' Sejvice of Great Value. The results of years of study of the scientific production and marketing of onions is available to the growersT and producers and shippers are unanimous In stating that tbe department’s serv­ ice has been of great value to them. Federal market reporters located in large consuming markets, such as St. Louis, Cincinnati, Kansas City, Chi­ cago, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, New York, and Boston, report dally to the- Ilaredo office local market conditions, such as supply, demand, ,and prices. * Four Other Varieties, Marvel, Norton, ■ Columbia and-. Arjington, Are Also Recommended—-Big Annual Loss U Avoided. (Prepared by the United statu Department of Agriculture.) . In tlie course of work on the- selec: Uon of tomatoes that will resist the wilt disease, which causes a large an- nual loss In the tomato-canning states, •the United States Separtment o f Agri­ culture has developed a variety-called Korduke,; similar to Stone, but highly risistant to wilt. Four other wilt- resistant varieties have already been produced, known as the Marvel; which is a- medium-' early tomato selected from Uervellle des Marches, bearing a heavy- crop- of smooth red fruit; the Norton, selected from Stone, producing a heavy yield of large,..smooth, solid red fruit, which ripens slowly, and therefore ships well; and Columbia and Arlington, medium late varieties, selected from . Greater Baltimore. Tlle Marvel is an excellent variety for forcing, for medium early trucking, and for home gardening. The Colum bia, like the Arlington, which has been temporarily withdrawn for purlflca - V Field of Staked Tomatoes.V •' • tion, because of mixtures found In the seed in 1920, is better for canning than for the table, because of its somewhat fiat shape, which does nor permit slic­ ing as successfully as some of the rounded tomatoes. Tlie Norton and the newer variety, the Norduke, are late tomatoes, excellent, for canning, for home gardening, and late truck­ ing. The Norduke shows the highest resistance to wilt of any tomato, and also some resistance to the leaf-spot disease. Wilt^resistance strains of tomatoes are developed by selecting from a va­ riety which possesses moderate resist­ ance, individuals which show higher resistance. -This resistance can be com­ bined with other desirable other varieties by crossing, seslstant strains have been distributed through state experiment stations to canners and others for testing, and some of the varieties are now being carried in the catalogue lists of seed houses,. — ; qualities In .Seeds from Cleaning and Grading Onions^ The department also has co-operative arrangements with the various rail­ roads whereby the ' shippers . are in­ formed of daily carlot shipments of onions everywhere in the United States. For marketing purposes the Texas onion-producing section ls dirlded Into three, districts: rDhe Laredo district, consisting of- Webb county, the upper counties, comprising Dimmit, Frio, La Salle, and Zavalla counties.; and the Gulf Coast district, embracing the ter­ ritory contiguous to 'th e S i Louis, Brownsville & Mexico and the San An­ tonio & Arkansas Piss railroads. , .Shipipents are' made to .every state In the Union east of the Rocky moun­ tains, the principal markets being New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Missouri; Ohio, and Massachusetts. ' New York alone has .taken In the past as .much as 20 per cent-of the "entire carlot movement. Laredo Is the shipping center for approximately one-third of the onions from- the entire section,' and headquarters of practicallyaU buyers and operators are' there located/ Seed From Canary Islands. The-majority of the growers, obtain their seed from jthe- Canary Islands; targe quantities of seed are also ob­ tained-from California. The seed Is planted by .drill between August 15 and September 20, and the plants re­ main in the seed bed 60 to 70 %ays before transplanting to the fleli Great care is exercised In transplanting^ The ground is plowed, thoroughly disked and harrowed, Qie roots and tops «f the plants.;are carefully trimmed, and only -well-rooted -plants are selected. In-carlng for the crop Is essential to Xeep the soil moist, 'and to avoid,* by' frequent shallow cultivations, crack­ ing or baking. Harvesting, begins' around ,April I in Webb county and continues to about May 15. The har­ vest-^season-to the, upper , counties is five to ten days Iaferr. ~ - TOMATO-SEED CAKE AS FEED Value as Source, of Protein for Live Stock Has Been Demonstrated By Experiments. The value.of tomato>seed press cake as a source of protein feed for live stock has bfeen demonstrated by a series of experiments recently con­ ducted in' the "protein investigation laboratory, of the bureau of chemistry,. United-States Department of Agricul­ ture: It has been previously estimated by the department-thatj»ver 2,000'tons of tomato seeds are largely wasted an­ nually" «s a by-product In the manu­ facture' of catsup and other “products by the tomato ptflping plants in the United States. Tomato seeds contain approximately '22 'pser cent of a valu­ able oil. T hr press cake which re* mains after expelling the oil contaYns about 37 per cent of protein,^ w^ch chemical '.and'1 nutritional experiments have shown to be of high footf valne. Young albino rats were red on a diet In whicft. tomato-seed press cake fur­ nished, the, only source of »roteln, the diet having been made adequate In other- respects by the addition of the other essential dietary factors.-On this diet the rats were enabled to .grow .at the normal rate, showing that the pro­ teins of-the tomato seed -contain all of the amino acids essential to the growth of animals.'

' Mr. Mellon’s order applied only to the divisions of the bureau which han­ dle the. paper used in making bank notes, stamps and government securi­ ties, it being explained that a quicker and more accurate check of the paper stock could be made by a temporary shut-down of all paper work. About 1,500 employes of the bureau force of 5,000 would ordinarily be affected by the order, officials Baid, but about 600 will be used as counters and all others having annual leave to their credit will be given the benefit of it. , According to Assistant Secretary oi the Treasury Wadsworth, In charge of the bureau, the inventory Is to be taken as a check of the stock on hand in the plan against the books In much the Same fashion that stock is taken by a manufacturer for the year. Check of the bureau’s store of bank notes, stamps, government securities, paper, plates and other supplies, which officials said, total an enormous amount In value, will be begun by a committee appointed by Mr. Mellon, representing all the departments which have work done at the plant, and a staff of justice department agents.

Mrs. Howard Dies Ia West. • Just as.the.shades of night began to fall so did the grim reaper lay his mighty hand upon Mrs. Mary Howard, age~87 year, n 'months and 9 days, the widow of the late Uncle Samuel Howard, pioneer re-, sident of Alexandra. Mrs. Howard passed to the great beyond on March 20th. Death was the direct cause of an illness of infirmities of old age and a complication of diseases. Mrs. Howard, was the wife of the late Samuel Howard, Civil War veteran. "She was a native of North Carolina, the daughter of Greeu Baily.- For sjxty-five years Mrs. Howard had been a resident of-this city. She was well posted in the early history of ,Alexandria. Like her husband Mrs. Howard was one of the history makers of this community. For years Uncle Sammay Howard took care of the transfer of mails from the postoffice to the railroad stations and his little dray was indeed a familiar object to the older residents ofAlexdndria Like her husband, Mrs. Howard was well known in this city iu the early days. Mr. aiid Mrs. Howard were united In marriage April 14, 1842, by Isliam P, Ellis,, justice.' of peace, Mrs. Howard before her marriage Avas Miss Mary Bailey Her parents were quite wealthy. Born 011 a farm-111 Davie county in 1834, Mrs. Howard’s mother passed away when she was four years old. Reared- by an old mam­ my in the early days-she -married Mr. Howard when eighteen years of age. Six'children were born to this happy union. : . : • In 1856 Mr. and Mrs Howard moved to AfexhH^na.- The-death of Mrs. Howard takes from this .community a venerable^ elderly lady who will be sadly nuss- ed by all who knew her. Mrs. Howard is survived-by one son, I* -M.

Many °f ,hc t,lhacc0 warehouse; m e n of the State are not Roine -to deal with the Tobacco Growers’ Co­ operative Association in negotiations for the Mie or lease of their ware hmise for ,lie <'nming tdbacco season til they have found out something m„re definite about the arrange* 1 e ts of the association .to finance the lease, rental nr the purchase of these houses, Those men, the-ma­ jority of whom are not opposed to the theory of c • operative markf Ii g and are 00: fi lent they corid ana w uld wake as much money under, ineco-orerative plan as they have b»en making, are aff raid of the pro­ position in its present'shape. ■ . Tnat is one side of the history of tobacco marketing in this country Theother side presented Iy the officials of the plans for the co opera tive marketing of the 1922 crop of tobacco are moving along as well as they could expect. They have called, meetings in Greensboro and in RaI- f igh for a conference with the tobac­ co vaiehousemen of the State, and li.ve sent circular letters to all of the warehousemenfasking them to attend Ih-se meetings or to send represen tatives with power to make a deal on the sp d. They want to rent hr lease these tobacco warehouses in all sec­ tions of the Stale and propose to va'ehousemen that the rental or t’. e other value placed on their houses shall be agreed on through a board if arbitration if they are unablePto get together with warehousemen on the proper consideration for turnirg. the house over to the co-operators Butthisplan does not meet the ideas of the tobacco warehouse on this question. They are not seeking to sell the association anything, and hence have nothing to arbitrate. They want to see the money in sight before they make any deal at all with tie association. Number of ware­ housemen have been making an eff' r.U to get a line on the situation next year through conferences with the bigger buyers of tobacco, but they have been unable to get any expres ston of opinion from the tobacco com­ panies who purchase the biggest part of the tobacco crop produced n the three States in the association Tney have been assured, however, that if the markets are run open on the action Sale plan they have been 1Pt for many years past, all of: tie larger runcompanieswill 3 end buy- e>s to these markets for the coming, fear.

Situated about-two miles north­ west of Cleveland and a mile on. so off the main highway between Statesville andjSali.sbury is the his­ torical old Presbyterian church of Thrid Creek. .' There is no available record of the history of this church fiither hack than 1797 but at that. time the church was an old log:one arid the site was just across the road from where the church now is what is now the old Third Creek i cemCr tery. The "grave .of David Waddell is .under the spot where the. pulpit of the old church stood. In March, 1835 a newbriefcbuild ing was built which still: stands and is used for services. William E. Wood gave the land on which the new church was erected.: He was the father of late Dr. I). J. . Wood. Rev. Joseph D.JKilpatrick was the first pastor of the new’ Third .Creek church, preaching-the first sermori there. .He was pastor of this church for 35 years; beginning his service in the old log church. ; ' This old. church fairly. radiates, an atmosphere of the Old. South, with the stately oaks that have seen, the coming and-going of the .two- horse carriage with- its slave driver in the .days.before the Civil WarV If is built from brick-with a roW of small green blinded windows on' either side and at the ends. There are two doors at the front instead of one.

For Americans, New and Old. The House has voted to extend, the 3 per cent immigration act for auohter year from the present date of its !.expiration,. June 30, 1922. The docision is important and valu­ able both to present and to prospec, tivfe»4mericans. There can be: no doubt that restriction of immigra­ tion is essential to the. prosperity and stability of this country. That is proved by figures accompanying the commitee’s report. These fig­ ures show that the . total immigra­ tion in eight months under the pre- rent bill ^as 192,923, as compared with 566,343 admitted during the .corresponding months of the pre- vies year;. -That Is to-Savii^without the bill we would have .had approx­ imately 400,000 a lens, mostly, un­ skilled and ignorant added to the millions of idle persons-nowin this country, and taking a living by hook-or crook from the workers. Without the resirictive bill next- year we would probably have 7°°> ■ 000 or .more such immigrants to burden society a n d lower the stand:, arls of American life.—Chicago.

Folly i« sweet while it Iasls, but I the taste is bitter when we pay the •price. I: j .While our troops were fighting for , victory in France the Jest of us were fighting forjdollars at home—at least the majority Cf us were. Monev literally poured into Amer­ ica from .other countries in return for our munitions and supplies and foodstuffs. There seemed no end to the stream of gold. . Prosperity came withajeap. prof­ iteering with a bound, arid insanity outstripped thein all. Everybody made money—big mon- ey—and apparently the question up­ permost was how to make it fly. And it flew. People who before the war could harldy afford a sewing machine sud­ denly bl issomed out in fine raiment and rode in expensive automobiles. Nothing was too good or too high in price. ■ _ Money was the only thing that was cheap. It came easily, went swiftly, and forgot to return. In the early days the foolish vir­ gins-went out without oil in their lamps, and had no light. ' The five wise virgins filled their lamps, and had light. The virgins remind us of .our own people m the profiteering days. Foolish heads of families spent money like water. Now they have water, but little money. Wiser ones saved their money, and now. live in comfort and plenty. That is the difference between wis­ dom and folly - If the people had saved thei m m- ev instead of squandering it in riotous living they would not.be feeling the. pinchofwant: " Wise men saw the reaction that was sure to come. Theyaccumulated all of the money possible and invest­ ed it in interest bearing securities. They are now profiting from their wisdom.

Washington.—The legality of army “plucking boards,’’ the illegality of transportation of liquors through the United States while en route to less arid jurisdictions, and the usual set of tax cases, are among the actions to be presented before the supreme court in the 40 hours remaining of the time designated in the present term for oral judgment. The court’s plans are said to fix a date early In June for final adjournment and April -28 as the last day for hearing oral argu- neats on cases now on the calendar. Among the cases which probably will he called this week is that of the Baltimore club of the defunct Federal Ieaeue against the present. major leagues, charging violation of the Sherman anti-trust laws. - foreign governments as well as American prohibition enforcement officers are interested In the con­ struction the supreme court will Place in two cases brought under thp Volstead law to block transports- •ion of linuor through the ,United States.

Very little spring wheat or oats Wis seeded during the week, although seeding made good progress in the upper lake region,, and the light rainfall In the Atlantic coast states was favorable to field work. Warm weather, and wet soil caused a rapid growth of winter wheat 'throughout the interior of the coun­ try, and satisfactory conditions and progress were reported in the south­ ern and Atlantic coast states. Germination and. growth of . com was favored by high temperatures in the southern districts, but much re­ planting will be necessary on low­ lands in Texas becaBBe of floods. Corn planting made satisfactory progress in most of the southeast, but was delayed by wet soil in the lower Mis­ sissippi Valley . The week was favorable for the preparation of soil and the planting of cotton in most eastern districts of the belt, the weather and crop-re­ view stated. Seeding made good progress in southeastern sections, extending northward during the week .over the central. counties of North Caro­ lina. ' . Conditions were somewhat more favorable for field work in Alabama and Mississippi, but the wet soil held planting mostly at a standstill in the western part of the belt, where dry weather and sunshine are much needed. Seeding is being delayed in Texas, where little has been accomplished outside of the Rio Grande valley and the lower coast counties. The con­ dition of the cotton planted, how­ ever, is fairly satisfactory except for some damage by high winds. ■■ --- 1 ’ I Arbuckie Freed of Manslaughter.

Ohio; one of the leaders In the fight to defeat the proposal in the' bill limiting. the force ' to 67,000. There had been unofficial statements to the effect that he opposed a dras­ tic reduction In personnel, and that he stood for the figures proposed In the. McArthuramendinent In presenting the letter- toward the close of an all-day debate, Mr. Longworth said he was glad to ac­ cept th& challenge from friends of the measure as framed to find out what the President wanted and to let the house know. “My Dear Congressman Longworth: “I have to acknowledg§_your let­ ter of inquiry addressed to me on the tenth instant. 14.1 were to ad­ dress the Congress formally I could say only .what I have already said informally, because I am well per­ suaded that it is not wise to make so drastic a cut In the naval ap­ propriations as has been proposed in ,the measure now pending. r' “I do not doubt the good faith of the committee majority in believing a suitable navy;.can he maintained under the limitations fixed in the pending bill, and - I- am heartily in accord with every consistent effort to deepen the cut in governmental expenritures. At the' same tim e'I must believe in the good faith* of advisers who. say very emphatically that it is impossible to maintain, within the proposed appropriations; the standard set for our navy which was made the base of the interna­ tional conference, and which , stand­ ard we have'proclaimed to the worid. “Of course the, decision must lie with the Congress, but. I should'not be frank in replying to your in­ quiry. if I did-not say that I shall be greatly disappointed, and I be­ lieve the country will be greatly dis­ appointed,, if the appropriation, to which the navy must and will ad­ here, is reduced to the point where the limitation of enliBted men and apprentices is below 86,000. No pre- sentation ot the situation, which has come to my notice, has served to al­ ter that opinion. “Ultimately, perhaps, the lower figures proposed may be reached and I hope it will be possible through later international concert, but the trend toward peace and ..security ought to be more firmly established before going beyond the limitation to which Tf.e were gladly committed at the international conference. “Very truly yours, "WARREN G.

Prices as of 43 food articles in SI important cities were considered. Seventeen of these articles showed decreases ranging from less that five-tenths of one per cent to 34 per cent on strictly1 fresh butter, 21 articles increased less than five-tenths of one per cent on cheese to 11 per cent on oranges and-six articles re- - remained unchanged. Y During the year, March 15, 1921, to March 15 , 1922, the bureau ad­ ded, the average decrease in the retail prices of these foods was 11 per cent, 3F articles declining and eight increasing.

LOSS IS NEIUILr SIMBOI Hundreds of Families Estimated to Have Been Left Homeless in Seaport Town.. ST. LOUIS LEASS IN I R K JUDGE GEMMiLL THINKS THAT IT WOULD GO FAR TOWARD REDUCING CRIME. Speedy Trial For Criminals Advocated By-. Speaker of Bar Association Committee.' - Chicago. — Revival o£ the whipping post, Judge W. M. Gemmill told the committee on law enforcement of the American Bar association, would have a great effect on the reduction of crime. He cited example* where flog­ ging tended to reduce crime, and pre­ sented'figures showing the . number of murders in theT large ‘cities.. In 1921, his figures showed that S t Louis had 426 murders, Philadelphia 346, New York 261, Chicago 206, Bos­ ton 102 and Washington 69. A speedy trial for criminals was ad­ vocated to reduce crime by Herbert Harley, of Detroit “In the majority of cases the criminals are apprerend- ed but it is months before they are given a trial and even longer ih many cases before they start paying the penalty for crimes committed.” he said. “The courts are responsible for this and, were the criminals given a speedy trial, regardless of the* poli­ ticians with whom they are friendly, justice would be more Efficiently served. - “Newspapers could co-opeTate with the courts, but that is the fault ot jtidges who are afraid of the power of the press. IM ess crime and more .constructive news was printed the ef­ fect. on crime would be large. How* ever, the newspapers are not responsi­ ble for this condition. They are insti­ tutions for the purpose of making money and they are giving the public what they demand— the sensational news. ' Norfolk, Va.—Berkley, a suburb ot Norfolk, was swept by a fire which- destroyed more than 100 houses, cover­ ing an area one mile in length and average from two to four blocks In width. Five hundred families are es­ timated to have been made homeless, and the damage will run to nearly a million dollars. The blaze originated in the Tunis lumber mills, on the southern branch of the Elizabeth river. A woman whose husband-is a watchman at the Tunis docks, discovered the fire from a houseboat in which they live. Within forty yards of the dock where the fire started are the S t Helena Oil company docks. Three steamers in the river were burned, catching fire from sparks. The fire quickly spread to the north, the Bparks being carried a hundred yards or more. Most of the houses in the path of the firs were negro .homes, and were ot wooden con­ struction. They were as dry as tin­ der and a few sparks only were re­ quired to set them ablaze. At one time Uiere were nine fires blazing in different places simultaneously. Although-the fire departments, both civilian and navy, from all tne cities and towns In the vicinity of Berkley, were called into service, they were helpless against the spreading flames, which soon reached Liberty street, one of the oldest business streets of the town. One block on Liberty street was completely wiped out A aegro church was also destroyed. For a time it appeared that a large gas tank owned by the Municipal gas plant was doomed, but the gas was burned off by means of safety valves. After four hours the fire appeared to have reached its climax, although it was still- blazing stubbornly in several parts of the town. 'Presents Tariff Bill to Senate.

Two days before Bill Dale was tried n court at Cartersville, the nefv Eliza- Seth Littleford alighted from an after­ noon train at the Halfway switch. She was dressed in a smart and neatly- fitting suit of dark blue, with lacey white at her throat and at her wrists; she wore a hat of dark blue relieved by a touch of white. In one of her strong and well-shaped, gloved hands she carried a traveling bag of black leather. A big and sunburned young man in boots and corduroys hastened to her. He raised his broad-rimmed hat, smiled, took the bag. and pressed her hand as though he'was very glad to see her. f “Bill Dale I” she cried joyously above the roar of the passing train. -1BilI Dale, It’s you I” "Sure, it’s me!” laughed Dale. “How good yon look ! I can hardly believe It’s you.” “But It is,” she smiled. “Tell me; what do you think the outcome o’ your trial is going to be?” Dale noted ^hat her English had im­ proved, and it was gratifying to him. As for the trial— “I don’t know,” he said. “But Ma­ jor Bradley thinks I’ll come clear. He believes that somebody that was hid­ den on the moutainside above us- shot Ball to save me. By Heck hinted that he knew that this was the case; and he intimated that I would stand a bet­ ter chance of acquittal than anybody else would stand, and that if I re­ ceived a sentence the right man would come forward with a confes­ sion. I have an idea that By. Heck himself killed Adam Ball—that is, if I didn’t do it.” “And CaIe Moreland—wasn’t it fine for him to do what he done for you. Bill Dale? How are you gettin’ along with the mine?” “First rate,” Dale answered, bright­ ening at once. “We’re shipping now. And we’re getting a smashing price for every ounce of It.” “I see,” said the young woman. He went on: “All of the hoys and girls of the Morelands, except the very little ones, are In school at Cartersville. and they’re learning fast. When our bor­ rowed capital Is paid back, the More­ land families are going to buy farms lying near Cartersville and go to them. A big lowland farm close to good schools and a good little town—well, there are worse places on earth. Pity poor David Moreland can’t know about it.” “I’d say!” She hung her head. She was think­ ing, as she had so often thought be­ fore, of her own benighted people. “And the Littlefords?” she mur­ mured. It had slipped past her lips. Dale and the Morelands owed the Lit­ tlefords nothing. , -■ Dale understood, and he gave her a sympathetic glance. “A few of the boys and girls of the Littlefords are going to school in Car­ tersville, perhaps one from each fam­ ily,” he told her. “It is rather ex­ pensive, you know, on account of the boarding, and they can’t afford to send all their children. However, I think—ultimately—your people will have their chance for education, too.” “But it won't do much good to edu­ cate one out o’ each family,” said Eliz­ abeth. "They’d _ come straight back here when they got through with theiF- schoolin', and soon fo’git—I mean for­ get!—It all. If they make their !earn­ in’ pay ’em anything, they’ll have to stay where they can use it.” She began to stare absently toward her well-shod feet, “Are you ready to go?” Dale asked. Elizabeth Littleford raised her head with a slight -jerk and, said rather awk­ wardly: “Has the valley changed much?” “Not very much,” answered Dale. “There’s a new log church, where an old minister named Ashby Cross preaches the gospel of straight walk­ ing and human kindliness every Sun­ day. Henderson Goff isnt here any more, but he sent me. his address, in case we wanted to sell the mine! The Torreys have gone back to Jerusalem cove and Hatton's hell, and the Balls are as quiet as mice. These, I believe, are all the changes worth mentioning.” Together they set out and walked, without saying much, to the crest of David MOreland's mountain, and-there they halted. The autumn sun, a great red ball of fire, was just setting beyond the; majestic Big Pine. Dale pointed to a long, moss-covered slab of brown sandstone. “Let’s sdt down there and rest,” he suggested. “You’re tired. Babe, I know. Don’t mind, my calling you lBabcZdoyOur . She looked at him as though she were surprised at his asking that. They sat down. Bill Dale suddenly leaned toward her and took one of her hands; and he didn’t take, it! as Jimmy Fayne had done—as though he were afraid of it. “Yon know I love you, don’t you BabeT' “I’ve been bellevin’ It,” she told him after a moment of painful silence. She was a trifle pale now. "But it—Bill Dale, it somehow don’t seem just right for you to love me. Because Pm such a pore little nobody. I’m as ignorant as sin; and I hain’t—haven’t even got good manners. But—but if you love, if you’re sure you do, tell me why I There came another minute of pain­ ful silence. “Because,” said Dale? speaking slow­ ly, “you have always seemed to be ope of my own kind. • You seem real, to me. I was so sick of artificialities in women that I loved you the moment I saw you. I know you are primitive, but I am primitive, too. And you weren’t calling yourself ‘Ma-a-am-mah’ to a d—d poodle. . . . . "Major Bradley," he went on, “feels sure that I will be acquitted. If it turns out like that. I want you to marry me at once. Tell me—will you, BabeT* How boyishly impatient he was. Was he afraid he would lose her by wait­ ing? - ■ n “You love me, don’t you, Babe?" he pursued. She faced him with the sudden, queer light of a tragedy in her eyes. m iWiil You Always Think of Me as ihe Finest and Most Beautiful Woman in the Wqrld?" She Asked. ' But she didn’t speak He pressed her hand until it hurt and demanded: “You do, don’t you, Babe?” “Yes,” she told him, in a voice that tie barely- heard. “Then why won’t you many me?” She didn’t answer. She ',wouldn’t answer. * * * o * * • * The day of the trial dawned clear, with the snap of autumn in the air. The courthouse was filled to Its capacity within- fifteen minutes after the' doors were thrown open. Every man who had a rifle was forced to leave it behind with the sheriff’s depu­ ties; a company-of the state’s militia was there, and each member of it had a hundred rounds of ball cartridges In his belt—-the authorities were taking no chances. Amid a breathless hush, the wheels of the law began to move. Caleb More­ land quickly told what he bad to say, and backed it up with proof; he brought out. a perfect' alibi. The judge and the jury frowned and smiled in file same instant. Dale went for­ ward and took his place. He pledded “Not Guilty.” A little later the state introduced its evidence and -ested. The counsel for the defense, patri­ cian and soldier-like, immaculate from his toes to the crown of his head/ went eagerly to his feet.' He had fully prepared himself, and he delivered his argument with an eloquent and force­ ful swing. It was plain that the jury was favorably impressed by the words of this man who never accepted a case unless he was absolutely sUre that his client was in the right. - Major Bradley hinged his argument on the mysterious third sHot. If Dale’s bullet had killed Adam Ball, would not-Adam Ball have been shot squarely or at least nearly squarely from the' front? As it was, the Goliath had been shot straight through the temples! That third shot had been fired by some bidden friend of Dale’s, the major de­ clared, and It had been done for the purpose, of saving Dale’s life. Ball had been in the act of playing a cow­ ardly trick; he had killed a man in 'North Carolina by just such a trick— and he had boasted.-of it. The attorney for the state made a rejoinder that almost Qyored the de­ fendant Then the court charged the jury, and- the twelve good men retired. -The jury was out not more than' twenty minutes, but to Elizabeth Llt- Ueford it was an age of torture. The twelve men filed slowly In and faced the judge, who. turned austere eyes upon them and asked: SM “Gentlemen of the jury, have you reached a verdict?” They had. Elizabeth Littleford’s head swam as she- bent forward to catch the foreman’s words— “Not guilty!’’. A wild shout rose from the leathery throat of the happy By Heck. The Morelands and the Littlefords cheered until they were hoarse. Sheriff Tom Flowers'had difficulty In quieting the tumult. Bill Dale shook hands until his shoulders ached. The Balls and their relatives, bitter with resentment and hatred,- stole out, were given their rifles, and went toward the big hills with the eye of the miltia hard upon them. Then the. Morelands and the Little­ fords and the Hecks, with Dale and his'mining man Hayes, came out, and they, too, started for the big hills. Dale had hired a horse and a side saddle for Ben Llttleford's daughter, and ,the two rode in each other’s com- panyon the journey home. Wlien they were well into the mountains. Dale drew his horse over close to that of his companion. “As soon as I can build and furnish he began, when Elizabeth inter­ rupted : “We’re ridin’ too fasti We’re too much ahead o’ the others. One o’ them Balls might try to pick you off with his rifle gun?1 . “Not much danger-of .that,” D,ale re­ plied. “The Balls have already been warned about sniping; your father told them that their very name would be scoured off the earth if there was any sniping. Besides, By Heck is acting as advance guard somewhere ahead of us.” He continued, “As soon as I can build and furnish a little house out near the mine, I want you to many me, Babe. Will you?” Elizabeth Littleford seemed not to have heard. “Will you, Babe?" She faced him sadly. He saw in- her hazel eyes the same queer light- of tragedy that he had seen there a day or two before; and now, as tnen, he wondered what it could mean. “Tell me. Babe!” Her head fell forward. The sunlight found glints of gold in her thick chest- nut-brown hair. She was silent for a ' moment; then her voice came dUIly: “I’d better not marry you. Bill Dale.” Dale sat up straight and rigid In his saddle and stared hard'at her sol­ emnly beautiful profile. He could hardly believe that he had heard cor­ rectly. He knew she loved him. She had told him that she loved him. Then why wouldn’t she marry him? He tried to reason it out, and the attempt made his brain ache; be was unable to reason. He knew only that she was all of the future to him, all of the world to him, and—that she had re­ fused to marry him. When they were within two miles of home,. Dale went ’ suddenly white and caught her almost rudely by a wrist. “Is It Jimmy FayneT’ he demanded hotly. She gave him a reproachful glance and said nothing. He flung her hand from him angrily. Dale did not speak again until they had entered the broad valley that was home to him. . Somehow he felt limp now. The great wUve of anger had passed. “I guess you are too good for me," be said. There was weakness in his Voice, and it was the first weakness she had ever‘known in him. “Will you always think of me as the finest and mosf-beautiful woman in the world?” she asked. “Always.” “It’s the best I can hope for," mur­ mured Elizabeth. “What do you mean?” “It’s lhe best I can hope for,” Eliza­ beth repeated as though she were talk­ ing to herself. They rode on In silence. * « . * * ' ». « • • There was no sleep for Bill Dale that night. The sweetness of his liberty had all-been taken away by Babe Lit­ tleford’s refusal to marry him. ^He became bitter toward her again: "She had been exceedingly unfair to him: while she^renlly loved him, she was going to nsarry Jimmy Fayne because he had so much; money. She was un­ grateful to him -: it was through him that she was .being educated, being lifted Out of her uncouth and illiter­ ate self and 'set on a higher social and intellectual plane. AU he had ever heard of the so-called unfathomable mystery of womankind he now-be­ lieved, and more; All this, of course, was unworthy. But Bill DSile was In­ tensely human, and to be human is to be unworthy. It turned cold that night A Bttle before noon of the next day;’ ByHecfc stepped into the Moreland Coal com­ pany’s office. - Dale 'looked wearily up from fils Ut­ tered desk. ;T am very, much obliged to-you for shooting Adam Ball, By.” “It’s b—I, Bin, ain’t I t r “What?”. Heck, leaned oyer and rested his knotty.hands on the muzzle of the in­evitable rifle. “Whatever it is you’re a-grievin’ about, o’ course. Babe LittlefOrd she went back to yore home tpwn this mornin’. Bill. - Sort, o’- quare, I thought, ’at you never went with her over to the switch. Sort _o’ quare, too, ’at she never rid over on the little lngyne instid o’ walkin’.

It haf to be h—I, or yon wouldn’t grieve about it. 'Smatter? Babe?” Dale rose and glared at By Heck. “I’m going -to have the truth. By; now get that. Did you. or did you not, kill Adam Ball to save me?” By Heck realized that he would have to be very cunning if he evaded the question now.. Bill Dale, bis god, would not be put off longer. So By Heck answered: “I wisht I may drap dead this minute and turn into a cross-eyed mink with a green tail and-plnk ey.es; I wisht the devil may take me and spend tetf thousand eternities a-sticking* red-hot, pepper- coated pitchforks in me and not let me have any tobacker; I wisht I may be struck blind and deef and dumb and paralyzed and ha’ my tongue cut out and my ears and toe-nails tore off—ef I killed Adam Ball to save you or anybody else.” And then,- having answered, he fav­ ored Dale with an odd look, took up his rifle and strode out of the office humming: ^ “When I die, don’t bury me deep Put no tombstone at my head and feet Put a bear’s jawbone in my right hand— ” “But he’s the biggest liar In the state." muttered Dale, turning back to his desk. He closed his desk, and he didn’t work any more that day. Babe Little- ford had gone without even bothering to tell him good-bye! , CHAPTER XVI. Confession. If the impulsive, fighting Bill Dale conld have heard across the interven­ ing miles ,the conversation that took place in his old home the next-evening, he would probably have followed Ren Littleford’s daughter by the next train if he had had to hold it up at the point of an honest blue gun In order to get aboard It. John E. Dale and-his wife had gone into the library with Elizaheth at her request. The three sat down facing each other. The younger woman was ill at ease; she was glad that the lights were subdued and soft When the silence bad become heavy, she straight­ ened in her chair and blurted out fal- teringly: “Bill asked me to m-marry him, and I wouldn’t do it I—I thought maybe I—I ought to tell you.” The Dales exchanged glances; then they looked back at Elizabeth Little- ford, Dale smiled a fatherly smile. Mrs. Dale’s eyes narrowed. The old “Then," Said Mrs. Dale, “Why Did • YouRefusetoMarry--" stiffness rose within her and began to make stubborn war'against her more recently acquired common sense. “Have you quarreled?” she asked. “No.” •Well.” old Dale said bluntly, “what’s wrong?” , “It Isn’t bfs fault;” Elizabeth told them. ‘Tm a savage," she went on desperately—“and he isn’t my kind." John K.- Dale retired very early that night. When the sound. of-his foot­ steps had died away, his wife bent to­ ward Elizabeth and said curiously: “Why did you call yourself a sav­age?" Elizabeth told of her early life In the hills, of the feud between her peo­ ple and the Morelands and of how she had hated the bloodshed. She told of the coming of Major Bradley, of her burning thirst for education, of the old trainman who had thrown her a news­ paper each day, and of the coming of -Bill Dale. “I was lonesome,” she continued, “and nobody ever seemed to under­ stand how I felt. That is. until Bill Dale came. After I met him, I couldn't see anything but him; he seemed to me like somethin* IM had and lost. . • “Then," said Mrs. Dale* “why did you refuse to marry—” . “Wait—you don’t know.it all,” Eliz­ abeth interrupted her. “There was the killin' o’ that heathen, Adam Ball, went to ’tend the trial because I knew I could clear your son if Major Brad­ ley. couldn’t. You see, Mrs. Dale, I happened to know who did kill Adam Ball, and I meant to tell if it was nec­ essary. “On the morain’ of the killin’ Bill had started up the river by himself. It was dangerous for him to go off like that, on account o’ them Balls and Tor- reys. Back in the Big Pine country there is a tall, thin man named Sam Heck. He's a big eater, an awful liar, and a worshiper of Bill Dale. Sam heard my father say it was dangerous, and he whispered: Tll jest sneak through the laurels and gyard Bill from ahind him.’ I heard him say it, Mrs. Dale. . “So he went sneakin’ along the foot o’ the north end o’ David Moreland's mountain, with his rifle in his hand, to guard your son. Bill didn’t know he was bein’ followed, because Heck is as crafty as a cat. I got nervous about Bill, so I went into the laurels and fol­ lowed Sam Heck. When I overtook him, he was standin’ behind a clump o’ sheep laurel and lookin' toward the river. . “I whispered, ‘Where’s Bill?’ “He said, ‘Be stHl, Babe!’ And then he thumbed his rifle’s hammer back without a sound. “I looked toward the river and saw Bill Dale a-walkin’ up the nearest bank, qnd I saw Black Adam slip be­ hind a tree not far away. BiU saw Adam, and he slipped behind a tree, too. Adam shot at Bill’s hat, and teased Bill. Bill shot at Adam’s hat— and then Adam Ball jumped up groan­ in’ like he was done for, and feU, all a- twistin’, to the ground. But he wasn't hit. He put his gun out by the tree to kill Bill as soon as he showed himself It was one o’ his old tricks." Elizabeth Littleford raised her head slowly and went on in a voice that was much shaken: “I had always talked against killin’, and yet I stood there and begged Sam Heck to finish him. The rest happened in no time. Bail was already a-lookin’ along bis sights. Bill Dale was nearly out in the open. I—” she faltered, and then came a rush of words: “I wouldn't marry him without tellin’ him, because it wouldn’t be fair to him; and if I told him, he—he wouldn’t have me. The woman he marries mustn’t be a__ a s-savage.” She stopped and stared at Mrs. Dale almost defiantly. Her head was high, and her hands were clasped in her lap so hard that they trembled. “I think jGu have made a mountain out of a molehill, my dear," tlie older woman said gently. ‘What you did was right, not wrong; any good woman would have done just what you did, Elizabeth, I am sure.” Elizabeth Littleford faced Mrs. John K. Dale squarely. There was a strange glow in her eyes. “But I haven’t told you everything,” she murmured—“I took Sam Heck’s rifle from him, and killed Adam Ball myself.” CTO BE CONTINUED.) Gladstone Explains His First Budget. We owe to the late duke of Argyll an account of the cabinet meeting in 1S53 at which Mr. Gladstone, then for­ ty-three years of age. explained the proposals of the first of bis series of famous budgets. “He came info the room,” writes the duke, “with a large, flat, shallow official box. very old and shabby, covered with drab-colored leather. He sat on a chair, nearly fronting the window, whilst we all sat in a kind of loop around him. Open­ ing the box on his knee, so that its lid stood upright and afforded a rest for any paper placed upon its edge, he be- gun a conversational exposition, which endured, without a moment’s interrup­ tion. for more than three hours.” The speech In which Mr. Gladstone laid this budget before the house lasted close upon five hours.

Eecent investigations conducted by the United States Department of Agrl- culture have shown that the English sparrow is a benefactor to humanity at least in one respect It is able to kill ,nematodes parasitic on wheat In this nematode, disease of wheat Gie parasitic worm forms galls which take the place of the normal .kernels. During the early development of these galls the sparrows seem to have a special liking for them. At first ItSvns suspected that the sparrow might, spread the infection in this way, but ir was found that the sparrow’s diges­ tive apparatus sufficed to kill the nematode. .

The disease be­ come*. serious if precautions are hot taken for its control. Fortunately practicable control . measures are known. They necessitate (I), the use of seed free from nematode galls, (2) sowing such clean seed on nematode- free land, (3) keeping wheat or other susceptible crops off Infested, fields for at least one year, and (4) keeping nematode-infested straw and manure off land to be used for wheat within a year. } The nematode is not able to move laterally in the soli by its own efforts except for very short distances. Be­ cause. of this fact the disease can be, effectively controlled by the farmer on whose land it may occur. No wheat variety adapted for -Cul- .ture In the infested sections has been found- resistant to this -disease. What seems to grow fairer to. me as life goes by Is the love, and grace and tenderness of it; not its wit,, and cleverness, and grandeur of knowl­edge-grand as knowledge Is-but Just the laughter of little children, and the friendship of friends and the cosy talk by the fireside and-the sight of flowers, and the sound of music.—J.

Many of them have higher value as food . than the cultivated vege­ tables which we prize. Mustard, th e farmer's pest. Is. one of the most wholesome and com­ mon of our weeds. Mixed with Iet- tnce, for a green salad It is tasty and cooked with pork as greens it cannot be equaled for a blood puri­ fier. . Take the tender green leaves, wash and drain as one, does lettuce and serve with chopped onion and a salad dressing. It makes a most appetizing salad. . . • Yellow dock, another^ pestiferous weed,' makes delicious eating as greens, and,, of course, we ail know dandelion which is found In plenty In almost nil parts of our . country. Blanched leaves of the tender dande­ lion ciit up with tender green onions and dressed with, salad dressing qre es­ pecially good; then cooked as greens they make another satisfying dish. Milkweed is a very delicious green which cun be used from the middle of May all through the summer, but' It Is best In early summer. The young leaves are boiled as greens and served with hard-cooked eggs sliced and a butter sauce. The stems may be cooked and served as one does, as­ paragus. l’Inntain leaves, -using the tender inside leaves, may be used as is let­ tuce. Purslane, commonly called pusley, Is another weed full of good mineral salts. Wash and boil it In as l-ttle water as possible, just as spinach Is cooked, and serve it In the same manner. ■Watercress is the most delightful of all greens, nice eaten dipped In salt and used as a garnish for lamb chops; Serve as.a salad with lettuce or alone with French dressing. ,Always be sure It is gathered from a clean ■spring, for contagioua' germs may he ifotmd on givens grown In Impure water. ................ ; - " There is only one medicine that really stands out pre-eminent as a. medicine for curable ailments of the kidneys, liver and bladder. ■Dr- EiImervS Swamp-Boot stands -the highest for the reason that it -has proven to be just the remedy needed in thousands upon thousands of distressing cases.

Reynolds of this city to wear the crown ofna- tlonal- committeeman relinquished by John Motley Morehead of Charlotte, and a few moments later acclaimed W. G. Bramham of Durham, to ’suc­ ceed Mr. Reynolds as chairman of the state executive'committee. The suc­ cessor of Gilliam Grissom, secretary of the committee, will probably: be chosen at a later date by the commit­ tee. ! • . Judge E. W. TimberIake1 of Wake county. was elected to make the race on the republican ticket to succeed the Jflte Justice Williapi R. Allen on thebtate’s supreme court bench; C. M, Hoover of Davidson, county was his party’s choice for the corporation com­ mission. ‘ Just before adjourning, the conven- tion adopted a platfcfrxu -drawn up by a committee composed of John J. Par­ ker, George ButIer and W. G. Bram- ham, condemned the “extravagance In­ dulged in by the state democratic ad­ ministration wblle the national repub­ lican administration is practicing ev­ ery economy, decreasing the. number of goverment. employes and reducing taxation wherever possible, the dem­ ocratic administration in the state of North Carqlina is creating opportu­ nities for polffieal henchmen. Issuing bonds and borrowing money with a reckless, disregard to the property rights and welfare of the people, and as a result the very land of the state is tottering under taxation piling ever hlglier, and tile rank and file of our people are. burdened as never}before. In their platform the republicans de­ nounced the Democratic.party for re­ fusing ,the Australian ballot law, and for amending the absentee voter law in such a way as to make "fraud easy to perpetrate and hard to punish; apd we pledge ourselves to enact the Australian ballot law and to place ade­ quate safeguards around the' absentee ballot. The time has comte' for cor­ rupt elections to cease.” ,The so-call­ ed gerrymandering of the state by the dominant. paTty,’ by which said plat­ form, 43 per cent of the voters 6f the state are robbed of, their proper rights of representation was denounced. Denounces the Machine, The convention denounced the “dem­ ocratic machine for the infamous methods employed in the campaign of 1920. We. believe the decent and right thinking people of North Caro­ lina who love tbeir.state and nation and believe in clean politics, wili not longer permit the dominant party 'to resort to ,such degraded tactics 'in Ite effort to inflame the passions of the people and divert- their nfinds from a calm consideration of. the issues be­ fore them. A party wlifch stoops to* such base methods is not worthy to be entrusted' with (he socred rights of the people. “The- government of this country has ever been, and ever will be,- con­ trolled and administered by the white race. The republican party in North Carolina In convention assembled stands for the,perpetuation- of this fundamental right.” Continuing' on the race issue, the republicans went on record deploring the action of the democratic party in dragging the negro question into every campaign.. "The republican party,’" read3 the platform,, “of North Caro­ lina is an organization of white men and women.- Jt has no intentions of. appointing negroes-to office within the state.” In -its grand, finale, the. platform adopted pledges to:, the people of North Carolina an honest, a clean and righteoiia administration of the state and to this end"w e abide the will, of the. people.” , Minor Changes In Organization. The organization committee, com­ posed of Charles A.. Reynolds, W. G. Mebatte and J. M. Morehead, offered minor changes- ,In the organization plan.

VOLUME XXIII.MOCKSVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 26. 1922.NUMBER 42 Carryio? Hypocrisy to The Extreme Limit. The Danville, Va , Register, pub­ lished by Senaior Carter Glass, of Virginia, recen Iv primed an editor­ ial attacking the Harding adminis­ tration and Repulican senators for their “brutal frankness” in enun­ ciating "the old policy of ‘to the v i c t o r belongs tlie spoils’ and. as- s»rt'!i‘r with amazing candor the ridit oi the (lominantjparty to abuse the civil service of the country to the point of bestow ing desirable- of­ fices as political rewards. ’ ’ Senator Moses is attacked with special vigor becanse of his declaration that the , Democratic hang-overs ofpatnsan the Wilson administration should be displaced by appointes in sym­ pathy with the new' adm inistration. The spectabie of a V irginia Demo­ cratic organ edited by a V irginia Democratic senator sounding the praises of nonpartisanship and the infamies of the system of bestow­ ing offices as political reward is enough to cease uproarious effigies in Saturday Hall. T ne Danville Register is the organ of a political party which, dominant in Virginia, not by an expression of the will Ot majority, but through the process of disfranchising five sixths of the voters of the state, entirely ex­ cludes all but the dom inant party from any representation whatever in the executive departm ent of the state. There is not a Republican state in the Union in which minority' re­ presentation upon state boards is not customary. Virginia is one Of several Solid Southern states in which Republicans -ate Excluded from membership on any .board, although, Virginia Republican even under a swindling election -. system, cist one-third of the votes. The penal, benevolent and educational institutions of Virginia are parti: sanized to the limit. N ot a Repub­ lican is ever appointed to any of them. Even the courts are parti- sanizea by a system of appointm ent from Richmond, and always the fflsn named to the bench are chosen, bv the Democratic state machine local self-government is denied in respect to the school as well as the courts.

Over $3 ,000,000 were scat out of Craven county last year for food and feed that might have produced on Graven farms, is the astounding fact brought out-by an investigation just completed by the New Bern chamber of commerce in cooperation with local wholesale grocers. Twoitems alone accounted for a million and a half each of the total Over $100,000 worth of canned vege­ tables—vegetables common to every garden—such as tomatoes, corn and beans; and canned milks wer.e im­ ported last year-for consumption by Craven families. While the fingures compiled by the chamber of commerce are not in­ tended to be accurate to the dollar they are believed to be conservatively approximate, and they go to show what has been happening in agricul­ tural circles in a typjeal eastern Caro­ lina county. While the farmers has been staking his all on cotton and tobacco, he has not merely himself in securing food, but has apparently joined his eity brother iif importing food for himself and his stock.— Greensboro News. , Let os Get1Back To1-Party Govern­ ment.

Evesy boy or girl who leaves school in Western North Carol m without knowing thoroughly what Western North Carolina is. goes in­ to the business of living under a tremendous handicap. Since ~ most children will give, their adult years to the section in which they were born, the best thing any teacher can do for any pupil- is to see that he knows his homeland. With such knowledge, the young Western N orth Carlinian possesses;_tjje JefearC of achievement and tne map of dp nortunity. He knows what his sur­ roundings offer to his tastes and gifts. He begins life with the inspiration that comes from an appreciation of the wonders in this his native land. He can be given this information by being assigned to the writing of com­ positions and essays.. Textbocks are not essentiei. Such a policy in all our schools would be a contribution of incalcul­ able value to the future citizenship of WesternNorth Carolina. It would mean guiding the child to adult sue cess. Why talk to a boy of what work he will undertake or what pro­ fession he will under enter if you tell him nothing of the business that is here or the developments that are possible? The products and needs of Western North Carolina will mean far moye to him than the parasages that Xenophon’s army marched, the rivers that Ceasar crossed How manv boys leaving our- schools know that wehave in Western North Carolina the biggest wood-pulp mill in the world and that at the foot of. the mountains is the next to the larg­ est aluminum plant on the globe? How many know the wonderful min­ ing resources in Cherokee and Clajf or of the water pow in our foothill and mountain cou.ntain counties? What do they know of our manufac­ tures, markets, and orchards, or why the tourists from all the world come here? When they have' been told that here, at their very doors, is the garden spot of the mircle state of the Union? And what do they, know of the wonder and amazements in the riches, record, and rise of North Carolina as'a whole? ■ I f there are not taught these things they are deprived , of useful know ledge and robbed so high inspiration. There is no better weapon to give boys for life’s battle than the 'rea i- zation of the work which his father? have done and he is expected to carry on — AshevilleCitizen. • ' Why He Lived Long. Yv LenoiriGity lias a citizen who will soo.ii be a 'hundred,, years' old ,• He partly^attributes his longevity, to the fact that he has been a con­ stant reader, of his. home paper., and always pays his subscription promp­ tly.—The Harrimau Record. L taining political romanticist in the country has burled the Republican; party again. This is at least the se cond time Samuel has swept at their bier of the Republicanism He con­ signed the grand old party to the: care of the undertaker in 1913 , with the declaration that there would never be another Republican candi­ date for President. This time, however. Mr Blvthe has' made it a double interment. In a ■recently prinsed magazin article he buries the' DemocTatio and Republi. can parities in one grave. Samuel’s aopetite-for big funerals grows with the years, and like the_Unele Tom’s Cabin company with two Topsies the public political obsequies at which he wields, the spade must now be featur ed w ith two corpses. The Republican party has survived several funeral sermons preached by those with whom the wish for Repu blican demise- was father to the thought. It will probably outlive the present day authors of its epitaph That political parties are in a par­ lous state is true There has been a decay of party organization, party oyalty, party solidarity and party discipline. This has been brought a bout by reformers of Mr. Blythe’s own school. These decryers of poll tical partisanship in a republic where political partief afforp the only fea sible means .of responsible' govern­ ment, have succeeded in substituting personal for partisanship to such an extent that it is difficult for a politi-' cal, party, as such, to function in these days. President Harriton used, .to Say that the difference between the people of the United States and those of the Latiii Americanr epubli- can republies was that here we- fol­ lowed principles while there they raillied to cockades, but theso called independent press has menaged to make cotkade chasing, as a substitute for adherence to' principles and pro­ grams, almost as characteristic of this country as'of Guatemala or Hon- dueas. , The processes which led to the breakdown of parties is well rem'em- bered by those who have been'follow ing the crusade of the magazine up lifters for twenty years. The 011- cry against “machines” and “boss­ es,”—often only.a catehv name for party organization and leadership. —the successful movement against Cannonism.” or ecentralized gov­ ernment in the House, the substim tion of the direct primary for- repre sentative government in parties, the deprecation of belief and member shfp in a political party; the demand that there be no change in subordi nate offices when a changd in admin istration occurs, but that a' perman ent office holding class be created; all these were steps in the direction of that state of chaos, -political .and governmental, in which we now find ourselves. <■ J1.. We were told by the space writing publicists of ten years ago that gov­ ernment was rotten to the core, that the> Senate was nothing Uss than ■‘shameful;’*, that the people were the victims of predaceous plutocracy with cost of living and federal, taxes fco ,sting to the breaking point, be­ cause, forso.oth, we were the victims of the'party machine, and thatall we needed was to .let the people rule, and everything W1Ould beset right. Let the people choose their officers direc­ tly, from Senator on down, both in primariesjand election, and corrup tion in politics .and public affairs vcofid become unknown.-, We -Jhave h d ten years of these 'reforms, for which ihe metropolitan magapinfs a -e most respnn^ble. and>. what has ■sonally conducted wreck. Mr Blythe’s remedy-for the decay Of. political parties is some more par ties. The existing parties comprise within their membership, practicality all the people of the country. They are instruments entirely within the pow.er of: the voters themselves; no one.longer claims that they can be controlled by “machines1’ and "in­ visible governments.” If the peopfe cannot reform the parties thev now have, or save .them from dissolution, now caii they^eatenew, vital, effec­ tive political- organizations? Tke fault is not with the political parties, | | :such, but with the destructive r- gancies which have been employed 1,0 Tear them down, and for which tie magazinists and professional people’s friends are responsible.

We need a keener sense of responsi­ bility and accountability on. the part ,f public leaders in their relations with the parties which elect them to public place; and less of the spirit of “every fellow for himself and th devil take the hindmost” that seems to take hold of many politicians oner they are in office under the ere iur, agemen.t of the “independent” press Thisisa representative r.-public, dnd every departure from that sys rem is a step backward. Underour system party government is the only practicale form of responsible gov- erment. Ealess we ean res'ore one or both of the majority political par­ ties to their, old-time prestige and solidarity, the breaking up process in politics and public affairs, will con tinue until we will have to abandon our existing from of government f- r the pariiatpentary. form. Both the Republican and Demo cratic parties stand for certian we!* defined traditions, theories of gov­ ernment and programs. That.-the j may have been untrue to these tradi­ tions and doctrines is due to no fault as organizations but to the cowardice or ambiti-an of leaders who use poii tical parties as only ladders on which to climb to place and power. The Repubiicanpartystandsfor certain well defined principles, and to the advocacy and support of these prin­ ciples it should be returned through the influence of the party rank and file of changing the course of party leadership, that this end may be achieved; We need a return of the party not by office holders who. seek to exoloit. it, but Iy the millions whose devotion to Republicanism is based on belief and conviction, not upon self-perpetuation in power. - As for the magazine publicists the su cess they .have had jn wreckihg the old political parties does not com­ mend them for the job of creating a satisfactory substitute for the insti tute for the intitution. upon, which they have w.ari-ed so incessantly ahd with such= tremendous injury to the American people.

Judge Bingham expressed the opinion, however, that if the banks if Kentucky could lend the hurley growers organizations, #4,600,000 before a single pound of the or­ ganization, the organization of the Carolinas and Virginia would have no difficulty-. James C.

The income lax returns coming to the office of Gilliam Grissom, collector of internal revenue, indi­ cate that North Carolina has been hurt less than anj- other Souther itate by the business depression. At-least this is the impression the collector has from the reports he gets from other states. About four million dollars have been collected from over 42,000 tax- payers. Most of the returns came r’rom the smaller taxpa\-ers, for a- fcout a thousand of the larger tax­ payers asked for and been granted extensions.

The fellows .who stand around and boast. that they have never scratched a ticket have voted for some mighty sorry fellows in their time. The Record believes in giving every man a square deal and will try to live up to this motto during the coming campaign. No space will be given any one to knock ' or boost any candidate for office. If there is to be any kockiug or boost­ ing the editor will do it free of charge. Up to this good hour there are only about sixteen candidates for the various offices in Davie county. It is yet several mouths until. the county convention., and as the water warms up no doubt others will bop in. Out of such a large number it should be no trouble to get good inen to fill .the various offices. -S Up to the hour of going to press we have not heard of a lady in the county who is asking for an office. Since almost half of the Republican vofeS.in the county will be cast by the laidies why not nominate one or ■two of them for county officers. Let the Office seek the woman, instead of the man seeking the office. The voice of the people is going to'.be heard, in Dame county this year as never before. Good citi­ zens are going to be nominated and elected to office this year, and - the people are going .to do the nomi­ nating as well as the electing. If you do not believe we are right just place your ear to the ground and listen. The Record makes a charge for all political' announcements, cards of thanks, resolution of respect, etc. Our only source of income is our advertising space, and our subscrip­ tions. If we were holding a fat political job we could possibly run these notices free, but since our liv­ ing has to come from one source a- lone, necessity compels us to make a charge for this service.

Washington.—By the margin of .71 votes the house broke away from its own leadership, stood behind .the Pres­ ident and passed the 1023 !naval ap­ propriation bill with an amendment Ssing the enlisted personnel at 86,000. The vote on the McArthur-Vare amendment, the big point in dispute, which increased the man force from 67,000, as provided in the bill,' was 221 to 148, with two members an­ swering present. Ninety republicans iyoted against the 86,000 amendment, ■while 4S den’.ocrats supported it. A bare handclap or two greeted the announcement by the speaker.

' As amended, the measure carried Si total of 5251,269,000, or about *$18,- 000,000 more than the total fixed by the appropriations committee which framed it. It goes now to the senate, with the charge by Chairman Kelley, of the naval appropriations', sub-com­ mittee that many millions will be ad- ■ded and which the house would have been asked to add “had not the i>ig navy men changed front at last.” As compared with the 90 republicans who voted against the amendment, 173 republicans voted tor It,?while 16 ctbers were paired for It. As against the 48 democrats- who voted for the amendment, 57 demo- crate voted against it, while 14 others ♦were paired against it. Except on two occasions the bill sailed along through unrugled seas. Once, however, Chairman Kelleyv broke loose in what members charac­ terized as a vicious attack on the "navy yard combination,? charging that despite the arms conference there were still demands from navy yard and naval project districts for more . money than was carried in the bill.

Blli Dale sat thinking of wbat he had done there in- the Big Plne coun­ try. From the stone-and-clay chim-' neys of the cabins of the Littlefords on the other side of the river the howling wind snatched sprays of blue wood smoke. The Morelands had gone to farms lying around CartersvilIe In the lowland, on each of which a fair-Slzed first payment had been made, the bor- \ rowed capital was to remain borrowed for another year. The Morelands were already losing their outlandishness and growing into universal respect. David Morelnnd’s dream was at last being realized. Then Dale frowned heavily. If only he could do as much for Babe’s peo­ ple! But he couldn’t.' The men of the Littlefords still worked the coal mine. They received almost twice the custom­ ary wages, but even that wouldn’t buy them farms and educate their children. Under, his‘eyes Tay two unanswered letters from his parents. He found little pleasure in answering their let­ ters, for he was still somewhat bitter toward . them—toward his father be­ cause of his father’s ill treatment of David Moreland’and David Moreland’s people; toward his mother because she had let him go hungry for mother-love as a baby, as a child, as a boy, and as a man; toward them both because he had been reared a do-nothing. The door opened suddenly, and By Heck came stamping in with a gust;i>f cold air at his back. He carried'in one hand the mail satchel; in the other was his ever-present rifle. After throw­ ing the satchel to the floor at. Dale’s feet, he turned to the glowing wood stove. "I’m dang nigh friz, Bill,” he chat­ tered. “My gosh, I couldn’t be no cold- er’n what I em ef I’d ha’ eiim’ the nawth pole neck-ed. Say, Hill, why’n’t ye burn coal ’stid o’ wood? Igod, it’s hotter." “Coal is worth money. Wood isn’t,” Dale ran through the mail hastily. He threw asifle a letter from the Alex­ ander Crayfield Coal corporation, which took the entire output of the mine at an extraordinary figure, and picked up a letter which bore the postmark of his home city. It was from Babe Littleford. Since he paid so little attention to the letters of his pardnts, they had requested her to write to him—they wanted him to come home for Christmas dinner. Wouldn't he come? He arose and paced the office floor for two or three minutes, then he sat down at his desk and dashed off a let* ter that contained only two sentences.' By Heck sat beside the stove and watched his god with thoughtful eyes. He understood, he believed. How any woman on earth cquld turn down a man like Bill Dale was utterly beyond him. By Heck was a great deal like a good-nalured dog. . . . If Bill Would only laugh, it would be good for him. It had been so long since, • he had heard Bill laugh. By Heck de­ cided* that he would make Bill Dale laugh. "Old boy?” "Well?” “Do ye wnnt me to tell ye a funny tale?" drawled Heck. He barely beard the answer: “I guess I don't ^mlruj, By.” Heck's sympathy made him gulp. But he swallowed the lump that came up In his throat and began bravely: "One time the' was a feller named Smith. Odd name, Bill, ain’t It? ‘Hoss­ fly’ Smith, they called him, ’cause it was said ;at he could easy shoot a hossfly often a hoss’s ear and never break hide on the animile. He was a hellion; too. One time Hossfly, he was a-tryln’ to git app’inted the ehairmar o’ some sort o’ politics doin’s. and on that same day he was a-drinkin’ Sort o’ tol'able heavy. They agreed to make him the temp’rary chairman, but Hossfly, he didn’t wnnt that. So he hops right up In the middle o' the meet- In', and he hollers Out and says: ‘“ Feller citizens,' he says, ‘I want to be the permanent chairman I I ain’t a-gpin' to act In the cap-aclty of 0 clurned temp’rary chairman; I abso- d—n-lutely ain't I’ "His old lnemy, Bb Wright, he yells back and says smart-llke: ‘Set down thar, Hossfly,’ says E b -‘you’re drunk, end you don’t know the difference a* tween temp.’rary and permanent!’ "Well, they knowed Eb had It a- cornin’ to him right then, and they lis­ tened fo’ It. Hossfly, he addresses the whole meetin’, and this here is what Hossfly says: . " ‘Feller citizens,’ says he, ‘Eb Wright thar 'lows I don’t know the dif­ ference atween temp'rary and pernia- nent, I’ll prove to you that I do know the difference. Eb Wright says’Ttn . drunk. I nip. That's temp'rary. Eb Wright Is a poke-nosed Tdjlt. That's permanent I’ ’’ . Heck finished with a lazy laugh: "Haw, haw, haw I Hee-haw, hee-haw I” "That story,” Dale said wearily, "has been told on dozens of politicians. It has become & part of the history of this state.” "Well, ,my gosh I" moaned By' Heck. He thought deeply for a moment, do- aided that Bill Hale wouldn’t laaffb at the story Tom Jones' pig—which had drank all of a gallon-pall of but­ termilk and then gone to sleep In-the self-same pail—and went on: . "Here's one, by Jake, ’at ain’t been told on dozens -o' politics men. And every word of it Is the solemn, dyin’ death-bed truth, too. “One time I was out in the moun­ tains a-huntin’, a-goin’. along slow and a-lookin’ fo’ a squirrel, when all of a suddent I hears a skeery -noise right ahead 0’ me In the laurels—Z-z-z-z-z! Z-z-z-z-z! Jest like that. I stops., I stops de-e-ad still. I looks keen. Thar' was a den 0’ rattlers, and the very least one was as big1 around’ as my left hind Iaig! Then I bears.a turrible growl right ahind 0’ me. I looks keen. Thar stands a big old she-bear with her teeth a-sboddh’, and two cross­ eyed cubs! Then I hears a whine.at my left. I looks keen. Thar stands a she-panther as big as a boss, with her eyes jeSt a-blazin’i Then I hears a- spittin’ sound out to my right.' I looks keen. Thar was Seven full-grown wild-, cats, and all of ’em had been bit by a mad dawg! Some fix to be in? Teuh; some fix! “Well, I thinks to myself. E f I shoots the rattlers, I thinks to myself, the bear and the panther and the wild­ cats’ll git me. And ef I shoots the bear, the panther and the Wildhats and the rattlers’ll git me. ijmd ef I shoots the panther, the wildcats and the rattlers and the bear’ll git , me- And ef I shoots the wildcats, the rat­ tlers and the bear and the panther’ll git me. And ef I don’t shoot none of ’em, they’ll all git me! Some ongodly fix wasn’t it, Bill? Now, how do ye reckon I got out of it?” Bill Dale only smiled. J1I can’t im­ agine, By,” he said. “I caia’t imagine, neither,” grinned Heck. “But anyhow, I’m alive today. Well, now that ye’re in a good humor one time more. I’ll tell ye some news. I hated to ruffle ye up like a yaller goose a-flyln’ back’ards whilst ye was so cussed, danged blue. Bill, old boy, it ain’t but five days ontel Christmas. A lot o’’them Nawth Ca’liner Turners from Turner's Laurel Is a-visitin’ their kinfolks, the Balls, and -they’ll every dadslatted one of 'em git drunk on white Hghtnin’ licker fo’ Christmas, and—they’ll shore think 0’ . Black Adam. The Moreiands ain't with ye no more, Bill, rickollect; only the Lit- tlefords is here now.” Bill Dale rose and stood there star­ ing at By Heck with eyes so bright that they sparkled. ' ■ “If they came down on us looking for trouble. I’d be a sort of clan chief, wouldn’t I?” he asked. Without wait­ ing for an answer: “I wouldn’t m.lnd that, yTtnow. I’ve got a letter here. By, that I want‘you-to put aboard the next southbound train that passes the Halfway switch. You’ve got about an hour; can you make it?” 1Ef the world was made in six days, by God, it shorely lpoks like By Heck could make six miles In a hour, don’t it?” The tali hillman left , the'Moreland Coal company’s office with the letter In one hand, his rifle In the other, and tears of joy in his eyes. For Bill Dale1 bad laughed, actually laughed.' - • ***.*,** By Heck put the letter on the train. The train carried it to Bill Dale’s home city, and. the postman carried It to the stately mansion of Old Coal King John “You Seared Me, Jimmy!" Laughea . Mlse Elizabeth, a Trifle Nervously, ‘ K. Dale, and black Isham, the servant, carried it to Miss Elizabeth Littleford. Mlra Elizabeth LlttIqford was.slttlng. alone on ah iron Settee among bushes ■of lilac and cape jessamine'; the weath­ er bad made another of its remarkably sudden changes, and. the day was sun*. ny and pleasant,:. She was aboot te LIfefv tear open, the envelope when the tall, straight figure of Jimmy Fayne ap­ peared before-her.’ .He had on tiding clothes, and there was a rawhide quirt In his hand. “You scared me, Jimmy!” laughed Miss Elizabeth, a trifle nervously. “I didn't know you were" anywhere around!’ "Beg pardon,” Jimmy smiled. "May I sit down beside you?” “Yes.” ' ‘ He sat down beside her and began thoughtfully to flick the toe of one of his shining boots with the tip of his quirt She knew what he had come to say, before he said It: "Once more’’ looking pleadingly into her eyes—“won’t you marry me and make me happy forever afterward?” She turned the letter over in her lap in order that Fayne might not see, ac­ cidentally or otherwise, the address. “Jimmy,” she finally said, 'Td like to have a little more time to think about It Things like this oughtn’t to be decided in a hurry.” “You’ve already had months! 'Or were, they' years—or ages? Why do you keep putting me off like this, Eliz­ abeth?” - ' ‘ ' “As I told you, Jimmy, I don’t—” He interrupted almost sharply: “I know you don’t love me. But you’ll learn to—after you’ve seen'how much I shall adore you.” He made a move as though ,to take her into his arms, and she shrank from him; he had done that same thing, and she bad done that same thing, dozens of times before. . . . With, unseeing eyes Elizabeth watched Mrs, Dale step from her motor at the porte-cochere and go. into the house. Jimmy Fayne, too, sa\v Mrs. Dale, but he was wholly unaffected by the sight of her; Mrs. Dale, somehow, did not ,object to his seeing the girl quite as much as she had once objected. ’Jimmy,” after a long silence had passed between them, “I—I’m afraid I ain’t the right woman for you. . . . If you knew, for sure, that I once took a rifle gun and killed a man with it, would'you—would you still want me?” Fayne laughed as though at a good joke. . “You kill a .map? Why, I couldn’t believe, ft. But if you had killed a man, or a dozen men, it—it could hardly make any difference to me. If you did do it, you did it because there was nothing else to do; 1’ip sure of that. We won’t mention it again, if you’re willing. I neither criticize nor attempt to understand your'hilf codes. Marry me, Won’t you, Elizabeth?” If I did,” asked Beh Littleford’s daughter, “would you help my people back In the hills?” "Educate ’em? Yesl Every blessed one of .’em.”, • "Freely?” - “Yes!” ■ Once more Elizabeth Littleford tried to decide, Fayne’s eyes grew more and more hopeful as he watched her lips. He became impatient. i “Tell me,” he begged. ' The girl took up the letter she- bad just received from Bill Dale. ‘As soon as' I read this,” ape ipur- mured', ‘Tl tell you,. Jimmy. If you don’t mind, please look the other way for a minute.” ' She tore off one end of the envelope, drew out the single sheet and unfolded It. Her eyes narrowed; her face flushed, and then became just a little pale. Her underlip. quivered as she folded the sheet and put it back into, the envelope. . t '" / "I can’t marry you, Jimmy,” she told him. Without another word she arose and left him. She hastened to the house, hastened upstairs, and went to her room. ■Half an hour later Mrs. Dale found her lying face downward on her bed, and beside her lay a crumpled sheet vt paper. Mrs. -Dale picked up the sneet, straightened It out, and read this, In the bold handwriting of her son: “Believe me, I am very appreciative of your invitation. But I am having Christmas with your mother, here In my own country.” CHAPTER XVIII. The Last F ight. It was early In the morning, and BIU Dale had just sent for. Ben Little­ ford. The hillman hurried to the of­ fice, for he believed-he knew what was In the air. ' He had already gone to work at the mine, and his thick beard, his. face and his hefnds were black with the dust of coal. “Sit down, Ben,” said the general manager. "We’re going .to hold a council of war.” . Littleford took a chair and crossed his legs,- :■ “Is It the Ball outfit?” he drawled. “Yes,” answered the .younger man, and forthwith he told the other of the news that By Heck had . brought him a few days before;, he had not given the matter really serious, considera­ tion until that morning. “Now,” he’ !finished, ..“I want to know, whether you think there’s any danger?” . Littleford tugged ht his Maacmied beard' and. frdwned. . j "Hill-” , he . said- soberly. ’^do you feVfeV ^ r Vt-VKi-V VV rickollect what John Moreland told you oncet about them Balls?1 He told ye .’at you wasn't safe, and 'at he wasn’t safe,- ontel they was dead and buried, didn’t he? I believe he did. By Heck says the’s a whole big passel 0’ them Nawth Ca’liner Turners; he’s shore them and the Balls’ll outnum­ ber us more’ll two to one. Yes, the’s danger, BUI, and ’specially to you. They think it was you billed Adam, and they don’t think ’the law handed ’em a square deal at the trial." “Then listen to , this plan,” said Dale. - “TO keep By Heck up the river watching for them. He will have three sticks of dynamite tied< together and capped and fitted with a fuse. If he Sees them coming.thls way In any­ thing like a force, he will fire off the dynamite as a signal to us. Our men will gather here In the upstairs of this building, and bar the doors—” “Oh, Bill,” moaned the Old' fighter, liVOU-Shorely don’t think we’d ever let ’em git to the doors!” n “I hope they don’t, certainly,” smiled Dale. “Where are your'rifles,’ Bill?” “At the mine,” said Littleford. “Te see, B ill,'w e’ve been a-lookin’ fo’ trouble.” . Dale went on: “At By Heck’s sig­ nal, TO get on my horse and ride to the lowlands for the Morelands. I can "Guns find Hosses, Boys!” get them-a lot quicker than I can get competent help from the law. What do you think of it?” “It’s a . good plan, I reckon,” growled Ben Littleford, "only I don’t cotton very easy to the idee 0’ us a-runnin’ from the mine to this here buildin'. I never did like to run from any man wo’th a dum, Bill.” But that wouldn’t be cowardly,” Dale protested. “It would oe purely a strategic move, .and It would save lives for us. For, when the Balls and their kinsmen come, you’ll have to de-’ liver me into their hands or you’ll have fo figlM like the very devil, that’s sure: an>‘. -o-i-ording to By Heck’s fig­ ures. th'-y outnumber you more than two to o n e .” “AU right,” Littleford,replied, with a shrug of his huge shoulders. “What­ ever you say, that same .we’ll do.” So By Heck was sent for, and short, Iy afterward he sneaked into the lau­ rels and went off toward the settle­ ment of the Balls. In the crook of his arm he carried his rifle, and inside his shirt he carried three pieces of dyna­ mite all ready for the match—and he chose every step with great care for fear of jarring the explosive too much. He had not been gone an hour when Bill Dale heard a dull, smothered roar from somewhere to the northward. Dale sprang up from his .desk, ran to his ready and waiting horse, mounted and rode lijte a streak toward the lowland. Dale arrived at John Moreland’s big white farmhouse a little before the middle of the day, and halloed lustily at the gate. John Moreland and his two sons hurried out in response to the call. Dale waved aside all greet­ ings and inquiries after his health, and told that which he had come to tell. The elder Moreland turned quick­ ly to bis two stalwart sons— "Guns and bosses, boys! It’ll be our last fight, and le’s be at it and make It a good fight.” Less than five minutes later the three erstwhile mountaineers rode out at the barnyard gate with full belts of cartridges around' their waists and with repeating rifles across the pom­ mels of their saddles, and joined Dale. The four hastened to the homes of the other Morelaifds; and not long afterward the old clan, In full strength, rode toward the big, ,dim- blue hjlls with Bill Dale acting as Its leader. It was to be ‘the clan’s last fight, and a fight for a good cause, and every man of It was eager for the. fray. . . . ' Bill Dale bore himself proudly, and He-rode like a man born to the sad­ dle. He found a queer joy—a joy that brightened his steel-grey eyes and flushed his sunburned cheeks, a joy. that he didn’t even attempt to nnderstadd—In the thought: "For this one day I.am a-clan chief; I am leading my own people against a foe, In my own country—” . And so overwhelmingly did ’the ■ idea take hold, of him that he*wished. even then, for the rejj-Vyr that awaited him at his Offl-- , In the heart at {year. tlw .mountains:. his conscience, asked him a question—and he an­ swered it with another question. Was he doing that which Was right? Might not the LittIefords all be killed by those drunken cutthroats while he was waiting for the arrival of a com­ pany of militia-from a city miles dla- tailt? ’’ . _Anyway, the militia would fight His clan would do-no more than thaL He satisfied his conscience quickly. . When they had reached the lower end of the cleared Yailey. there.came to them the sounds of slow firing, the firing of snipers. Each man kicked his horse’s flanks and rode faster. When they came in sight of the be­ sieged building, they saw puffs of pow- der-smoke rising lazily from the upper •windows and from the' mountain side above and to the right. Again they kicked the flanks .of their horses and rode faster. At John Moreland's old cabin they dismounted hastily and turned their horses into the drab meadow; With Dale still leading, they hurried on foot to the river’s nearest bank and went rapidly, under cover of the thicklT- standing sycamores, to a point withlD seventy yards of the office and sup­ plies building. Then they made a dash across the open space, and Ben Lit­ tleford, With one arm bound up in a' red-stained blue bandana, opened the door for them. “Who else is hurt?” 'panted Dale, “Little Tom,” answered' Littleford, “and Saul. Little Tom, he got a bul­ let onder the shoulder. Saul, he got one in might’ nigh the ssfme .place. They’ve riddled the whole t’other side 0’ the house to splinters. Thejfre a-callin’ fo’ you.” “They’ll get all they want of me.” Dale growled. . He turned and ran up the rough stairway, and Ben Littletord* and the Morelands followed close upon his heels. At the front ar>d side windows, behind - anything they had been able to find that would stop a bullet, knelt Littlefords with rifles in their hands, patiently watching fot a human target to appear on the mot ntainslde above. Saul and Little Tom lay in a coroer, where they were fairly safe from chance bullets. Hayes had bound up their wqunds as well as he could with the material at hand. They were both white and helpless and suffering, but still" full of the old Littleford fighting-spirit. Dale seized his Winchester and belt of cartridges from the hands of the man who had brought them to him, and turned to the others. A bul­ let crashed through the 'wall and struck the floor at his foot; he paid no attention to it. “Listen to me, boys.” Dale was buckling his cartridge-belt with rapid, steady fingers. “From where they are hiding, the Balls and Turners can hardly see the lower story of this building. Well go downstairs, open the front, door, and run to the edge of the laurels at the foot of the moun­ tain. Then we’ll turn to the right, make a wide detour, and get above the Ball, outfit; we’ll be fighting down­ hill instead of.uphill. Get me? Are you all ready?" To a man, they were ready. They reached the thick under­ growth without being seen by the eo emy, While the Balls and Turners fired more or less aimlessly at the building, drank . white whisky ai d called drunkenly for the surrender ::o them of Bill Dale, Bill Dale and his men were making their way steadily In a wide ha!f-eircle*up the side of David Moreland’s mountain. , • H al/ an hour after they had left the office building. Dale bad stationed his men, deployed as a line of skirmisher t, ,behind sheltering trees some two hu 1 dred feet above the Balls and their kinsmen. John Moreland, Ben Littleford .at d Bill Dale were not far apart. “It’s a shame to do- it,” said Dale. “I swear, we can’t shoot men In the back Ule this!” John Moreland, twisted his^mou-.h into a queer smile-of contempt,' aid so did Ben Littleford, They knew, far better than their leader, the ways of that people without a principle. T ie Balls.and Turners wouldn’t hesitaie to shoot them in the back! “Well,” John Moreland replied, atd it was almost a sneer, “ye might fo down thar and give ’em some candr, and kiss ’em, and ax ’em won’t they please surrender!” • Dale leaned around his tree," a grei.t gnarled chestnut, and called boldly: “You’ve got a chance to surrender now—and you’d certainly better take it quick!” ' i One of those below yelk d surprise (- Iy: “Who’re you?” Then they all whipped to the other side , of their sheltering timber. The answer came at !once: “Tm BID Dale, and I’m peeved! You’re at tie mercy of the finest hill clan that evir looked along rifle barrels; will ytu surrender, or fight it out?” "You said it—we’ll fight It out." cried a burly .cousin of BlaekxAdam Ball, deceased. •You’re on!” growled Bill Dale, .slipping his rifle out beside the tree. “Give ’em h—I, boys!” He was unused to this sort of thinifc and he was incautious.',He showed a little too much of himsfelf—there was a sudden keen report from below, an I a bullet hole appeared' In the rin 'of his bat! John Moreland fired the next shot, and he broke the right, arm tt the man who had just fired at BUI Dale. This opened the battle In earn. L .... .

CARING FOR BREEDING FLOCK If Fowls Are Overrun With Lice or Mites, Fertility Will Be Seri­ ously Affected. The breeding flock should be watched to see that the fowls1 keep in condition. If they are overrun with Uce or mites the- fertility will be af­ fected' seriously or destroyed. Care is to .be used, too, to see that the male doesn’t get bis comb or wattles frost­ ed. If the rooster’s comb' or wattles are frozen to any extent, ids ability as a breeder will be Impaired, and may not be recovered for several weeks. When the weather is very cold the iiinleii intended for breeding should be placed at night In a box or crate partly covered with a bag or cloth. It Is a. good idea, too, to'ex­ amine bis majesty occasionally at night to see that Jils crop is full, and thnt he is not going thin—if he runs at large. Roosters sometimes are so gallant that they- allow the hens to eat all the food, with the result that they get out of condition. . If this hap­ pens tbe rooster should be caught at least once a day and fed separately from the hens.

As mentioned In the first paragraph, ' com silage and wheat straw; with either mixed hay, soy-bean hay or cottonseed meal, is a cheaper ration than shock corn, mixed hay and wheat straw for win­ tering beef. .cows. As the cows fed on the mixed hay and' soy-bean rations produced a larger calf crop than those fed the cottonseed meal, Ulie average cost per head of raising their calves was practically 6 per cent less. As sources of protein, mixed hay and soy­ bean hay, where they are grown suc­ cessfully, have additional advantages In that they can be raised on the farm, while cottonseed meal must be pur­ chased. Cost of Raising Calves. Actual costs of raising calves vary with the time, and locality, but by a SOLVING PROBLEM CF PROFITABLE ALFALFA Of Advantage to Market Rough­ age Through Stock. Suggested to Farmer That He Dis­ card Practice Cif Marketing Hif Hay and Feed It to Gbod Grade of Dairy Cattle.' (Prepared by the Ublted states Department of Agriculture.) Farmers on some of the' reclama­ tion projects where alfalfa hay is a cash'crop Will find it to their advan­ tage to change their practice and mar­ ket this roughage through live stock, says the office of western Irrigation agriculture of the United States De­ partment of Agriculture. On the Newlands project .In Nevada, the re­ cent prices for alfalfa hay have been $9 to $9.50 a ton. f. o. b. cars, which nets the farmers about to or £6 a ton at the stadk. Although these prices are considered fairly good at present, figures collected recently oh the cost of production go to show that' when the farmer is unable to get more than Cutting Al alf«. $6 a ton at the stack there is a net loss. . Indications are that $7 a ton is nearer the cost of production, aifd this does not include any labor In­ come for the former. In order that the farmer may make a fair income on these alfalfa lands. It is suggested that he discard the practice of shipping oft his hay and start feeding It-to a good grade of dairy cows or to • some other kind of live stock, particularly cattle and sheep. Many farmers In this section have already demonstrated that live stock will Solve the problem of making al­ falfa profitable. The nse of IiTe stock keeps up the fertility of the soil and provides concentrated prod­ ucts that do.not have to bear such heavy freight costs. BENEFITS IN GROWING SEEDS On* Must Be Plant Expert , to Be Suc­ cessful and Vast Amount of Labor Is Required. Prof. Paul Work of Cornell, speak­ ing on better seeds and how to obtain them, said there were many advan­ tages In growing, seed. One knows the percentage of his own seed., and if he grows his own seed and does it well he can turn a profit from the sale of the surplus; but you have got to be a plsmt expert and it requires a vast amount of labor and care to grow good seeds. It was his opinion that' the bulk of the seeds would come from seedsmen; that men In the seed busi­ ness are spending thousands of dol­ lars to get good seed, while others were giving the matter of quality lit­ tle attention, preferring, to sell the cheaper seed- regardless of quality.

OF AN INTERVIEW, 1 “Did I report .your remarks correct' Iy ?” asked the-Interviewer. “.Yes,” replied Senator Sorghum. “I expect to read them with pleasure when I get time." “You. indorse the interview without having read it?” •• “Fully. The comment on it by my constituents has been so favorable that I’m sure that it’s entirely satis­ factory.” ; Generous. ! it was the luncheon hour, and Joe was deep-in the’ paper. Along came Jock, the Scot. - / “Can you loan it to "us a second?" he asked. Joe, ever obliging, complied, and Jock cut out the football coupon, and, hearing Joe protest said*: “AU ,richt all.rfcUt my mannie; if I win the-prize I’ll gie ye tuppence.”—Answers. ' Neighborhood Rivalry. “Every time I buy anything new, Mrs.' Gadspur goes straight to town and gets something just lllse it,” said Mrs. ’ Twobble, fretfully. “I don’t know what we are going to do about that, my dear,” said Mr. Twobble. “Still, if we had a place to keep' it, I might buy you- a cassowary. I understand they are hard to dupli­ cate.”! . - NO, INDEED “But, father, he’s my soul mate.” . “Tut, tut, daughter, don’t be fool* lsh, Just because two young people happen to. like the same phonograph records it doesn’t necessarily mean that they were made for each other.” True.- They eay that.money Is ar curse.

The Passive Politician. “I am in the hands of my friends,” said Senator Sorghum. * “What- do you mean by that?” “If they regard me as a good politi­ cal risk, and want to'back me with all kinds of money; -that’s their.business. Buti I don’t want- to know. a thing about it” Ably .Represented. . “Ton have been very fortunate in politics.” . “I have,” admitted Senator Sor­ ghum. "although It would be hardly discreet for me to express it just that- way. My interests lie in convincing my constituents that they are the for­ tunate ones.” Habituation. .- . “Tour constituents must think very highly of you to send you to Wash­ ington again and again.” . “Not all of them,” ,admitted Senator Sorghum. “Many; of course, contem­ plate me as their invincible leader, but a few regard me merely as a sort of bad habit.’’ WE HAVE MOVED to our new store on Liberty Street, andwouldbe glad for all our friends to call and see us when in need of any thing in the Shoe line.
