People with torpid imagination and torpid liver are not in condition to make comparisons between prog' less and poverty and to explainer attempt to elucidate to them in' a waste of time and talents. . Are we to have progress or paialy sis. No town . or community cuii have progress without good scaools; every community hus paralysis wheii pioper school facilities are not gi en for the cdiicutio.i of all the children. The News & Observer charges that in t he district around Salisbury it is opeuly stated ana! there are those ho speak with authority, of information that is precise, that al most every revenue ollicer is a recip ient of blackmail largesse from the distillers. It was a wise thing tlie people i,f Asheboro did when they almost mi iinimously voted for u special tax for better schools. An oppoi thnity u ill be given soon to take another step forward by submitting the ijuttiuu of issuing; bonds to build a tvetter and larger graded school building. To vote the measure down would be taking a step backward. We don't know whut the character of the revtnne officers are who as saulted! Hob Ileal, but we know of one revenue official high up in "G" who within the last year left the state temporal ily fearing an exposure of his corrupt and dishonest prac tices. He is in the service now. If commissioner Verkes wants to in vestigate and desires facts lie can easily obtain them. The. brutal assault ou editor Deal of the Wilkesboro Chronicle by a big burly revenue oflieer, while bis "pal" stood by with a drawn revolver dar ing any oao to interfere, hat stirr-d up not only the County of ilk, tint the people are demanding that Commissioner Verkes investigate the rotten, corrupt practices said to exist in revenue circles in many parts f North Carolina. While riding on a hill si e looking across tlie Caraway at the Caraway Mountains, Mr T J Redding said to us a tew days after the heavy frosts ast week, l)id you ever see the frost line on these mountains, pointing to a line half way or more up the side of the mountain above which all the buds and jouug foliage weie green aud growing aud below which all was killed aud not a sprig of green to be seen except here aud there where the hardier trees could be seen. "At that opening on top of the mountain' said Mr Bedding 'my son, Troy, has an orchard above the frost line. No fruit was ever killed there except some cherries oue time when the whole earth was covered in sleet. Kev'A C Dixon, pastor of the Kugglies Street Baptist church, New York, recently preached a ser mon on "Dirty Money." He said Rockefeller had yielded to the temp tation to make money faster than the golden mle would justify. When Mr Rockefeller was in the early years laying the foundation for his great fortuncy though be did not violate the'law of the Und he did violate' th.' higher lav and brought financial ruin t those who- said it was done by unfair mean to euy the least. Mr Dixon calls on Mr Rocke feller to make restitution to these unfortunate rueiv and women or to their heirs, lie can easily 'do new since be haa everything his way. Few men in the county make more money at farming than -Troy Redding, "fie ' always nsea two horses and sometimes more ia break ing land and when ho plows with the big plow, it is always followed by a subsoiler. This breaks and stird up the soil and clay to a depth of at least 13 or 13 inches. Last year Mr RoUding raised on S3 acres 633 bushels of wheat, fbia is more tban 23 bushels to the acre. Every bashel of it was sold at his hIoot for seed without hauling it a step. His father, "Long Tom" is a big farmer too. He taught Troy and Will, another son, who has made a success farming. " The father of these boys raises from ?0O to '$00 bushels of corn on one . 8 acre .bottom every year.'

SEVEN OF THE OGDEN PARTY INJURED. , While Rounding a Curve it Greenville. S. C. ; the Train Bearing the Educational Party Craehet Into a Freight Train. While rounding a curve- in the yard limits of the boat hern Railway at Greenville, S. C, and running at the estimated speed of 50 miles an hour, the special Pullman train bear ing Robert C Oeden and 100 mem' bers of the Southern Conference for Education, crashed into th rear end of a freight train at 7:55 o'clock Saturday morning, killing four persons and injuring a score of others. None of Mr Ogden's guests were killed. Cnas M Cope, a white brakeman, of Colombia, S. C, and three negro waiters were killed outright aud a number of the party injured, though none of them seriously. The combination baggage and club car and two diners, together with tho locomotive and a freight car, were piled into a heap, and in an instant fire broke out in the cooking end of tho diners. Dr McKelway, i'rof Faruau, Mrs Farnan, Mrs Thrope, Dr Dreher, and Robeit Ogden, were eatiug breakfast in the secouu uiuer, wuicu was ivru uj pieces. The floor collapsed aud the passengers were picked up from the track. Seven sleeping cars behind the diners were lett intact, but the shock sprung many locks, imprison ing theoccupants. Soth Low and Mrs Iaih, Bishop McVickur, and others, were rescued when the doors were smashed open with axes. The passengers in the St Jama were piickly removed, bnt the three ne- roes could not be saved. They breathed the Uames and died, w hen he saw that the crash could not be) averted, Engineer Hunter, of the Ugdeu train, applied the emergency makes and lumped. Practically all of the baggage, said to bo valued at ! 12,000, wus destroyed. It is claimed that a mis- understanding of orders led to the accident. The north-bound passen ger train to New York, had orders to take the siding at Paris, a way sta ion four miles north of Green ville. The freight, which was be ing made up here, was ou the main line. As a result of the wreck, President Ogden abandoned his trip to other points, and the special left tonight for the East. Prot arnan aud wife remaining here in a hos pital. At the coroner's inquest this afternoon the train dispatcher testi fied that orders tn the flffot that tb Ogden special would arrive at 7:15 were Sled in the yard master's office, and later that another order was tiled that the special would arrive at 7:55 a. m.

Tho button was found in a ditch at the rear of the biru, near tracks that led from the bam. Another Big Distillery Soiled. Another big distillery was seized iu Richmond county, the Hoffman distillery, at Hoffman. The govern ment will continue to operate the plant until all perishable material is used. The distillery lias in stock over 2,000 gallons of whisky.

LAter tie tails from the tornado, which struc this city yesterday eveuing indijule that first reports in circulation, here were by no means exaggerated, either as to toe number of lives lest or the fjuanoial damage resulting. Scores of people were injured aud are being attended bv the various physicians, It will be impossible to state the number of the injured, but it is not believed that mini v deaths will result from injurict The nnnibT killed is sixteen in this city. Four were members of one family and were employed ou the ranch ot tieorge woodman. They were all crushed to death by the falling in of I he heavy walls of the adobe house winch they occupied, 1 he others met their rate in a like manner, A trin through the town fails to show a locality that has not suffered more or less from thes orm. Trees, fences, telegraph and telephone poles. corrugated roofs, chimneys and walls and debris of all imaginable kinds strew the ground. Conditions in New Laredo, across the Rio Grande river, are similar 'o those existing on this side. Il is not officially known how man v dead or injured there arc, but in an inter view to night a city official of that place stated there were five dead that he knew of, although rumor has it that ten lives were lost. Tho five i known dead, added to the list of dead on this title of the river, would b ine the number of dead in both cities up to 21 persons. 1 he storm made its appearance from the southwest in the neighbor hood of Lampazas, Mexico, 72 miles from this city, and it is reported that great havoc was wrought in that locality, . although it is not thought that anv loss of lifo result ed.

ROOSEVELT'S HARD NUT TO CRACK ON HIS RETURN. The Attorney General Confronted With Facts And so Scared He Is Waiting lor President. The Conviction Growing that Republicans Are Bluffing as to Freight Rates. People Like Sheep. Follow Bell -Wether. Special fcorrespondenee of the Courier. Washington, May 1. Mr Presi dent Roosevelt will have a hard nut to crack w henhe gets back here from his coyote-iackrabbit- bobcat-b ear stunt in the rauged'of the wild West. He will go up itoaiust it good aud hard on uo less a thing than the dis missal and indictment of one of his Cabinet Ministers. It will be re membered that some time, ago Attor ney General Moody, of course at the instance of the l'resiuent, inviicj former Attorney-Gcueral J udson Harmon, of Cincinnati, and Mr Frederick N .1 udson, a distinguished attorney of St Louis, to accept commission from the Department of Justice for the purpose of nivestigat ing the charge ugaiiist Mr Paul Mor ton, Secretary of the Navv, to the effect that when he was vice-presi dent of the Atchison, lopeka A Santa Fe Railroad, he was guilty of entering into a contract with the Colorado Fuel an.l Iron Company whereby that corporation would get certain rebates on Height shipped over that road, thereby putting all competitors "lit of business and fractunug the Interstate Commerce law a whole lot. Well, now, it si-ems this combina tion of "Judsous have done their work all too well. They have found good grounds for t!e indictment of Mr Paul Morton, under the I liter state Commerce law and the Slier man Ami-Trust law, und have put the thing up to the Altorncy-Ueueral with evidence and tho facts. It has scared him plumb to death, and he has deferred the whole thing until the President's return, when ho will put the matter up to him und he have to decide whether or not he will ask u member of his Cabinet to step down and report to the Fed eral Grand Jury, or ignore the whole facts in the case and the evidence that proves this man in the Cttlnnel guilty of :t diiect violation of the law. Now let us see what this square deal'' President will do. If he ignores the testimony that the men of his own choosing bring to luui, theu we may as well make up our minds that all this hue and cry, started bv hlihsclf, auent railrod rate l nt ion una aiilt-reoate iiguis, is folderol and toiiimyrot, dug up for the purpose of throwing saud in the eyes of the people. Let's give hint a huuee. The light now being made by the Hon William Randolph Hearst, of New York, against the Lighting lust of that city has begun to at tract the uttculiun of the leaders ot the Democratic putty here in the national capital, aud many of I hem drop in here every week, and it io beginning to assume tue phase or an issue that will be far-reaching iu the near future. These leaders of the arty recognicc the fuct that Mr Hearst, siuglehuudud and alone, is aging war on a giant monopoly in the city of New ork aud that he has brought it to its kuees. They have come to appreciate the fact tliut Hearst is a tightiT and ave us an object lesson the late lit in the citv of Chicago with all iho other seven papers ot tin: city igaiiist him. aud still he won out. Look out for a battle in New York! There seems to be a growing con- icticn here that this whole mutter of railway rate legislation is a lug bluff being played by the iiepuniiiaii members of Congress, w ho are Wedded to the plotective tariff. That the Esch-J'uwuseud bill was passed by the Republican members of the jowcr House us a means t allay agitation is well known. they knew the heuutors wouliiold it up and strangle it, lor the time being at least. The Semite did as was ex pected. That gave all of them a hauce to sound public opinion aim ud the best strategic ground lor tne future. It was all a comfort for the stand pat" tariff men. It diverted attention from the tariff revision that he Republicans had promised, that Roosevelt demanded, and on which a score or more members were elected Avers If your blood is thin and im pure, you are miserable all the time.
