Morganton, Ky., July 22.—Harlan
Whitaker, aged 51, arrested in 1900
and tried for complicity in the as-j
sassination of Senator William Gobel.j
was found dead in a cornfield eight j
jiiiles southwes-t o^ here today. He:
was lying face downward, the condl-|
tiop of the body indicating he had)
died somo hours before. Heart dis-|
ease was the cause of his death.
The rumor that Whitaker had been!
assassinated caused a considerable
p-tir throughout Butler county be
fore the true facts surrounding his
death became known.
Senator Goebel, when assassinated
was a democratic aspirant for the
governorship. W’^hitaker’s trial re
sulted in his being released from
prison after a few years, but it is
thought his incarceration undermin
ed his health. He was one of the
first of the so-called "mountaiti men’
to be arrested in connection with the
crime.

lionaire American Tobacco Company
magnate, was this afternoon sen
tenced to a term of six months in pe
Durham county prison for violating
the North Carolina prohibition law

of the place by the police disclosed
the presence of several hundred gal
lons of whiskey. Every effort was
made to have the sentence changed
to a fine, which the defendants son-
in-law would have paid but the judge
refused and Rochelle was sentenved
along with a number of negro tiger

POINT TO I
DUD LOCK
Washington, July 22.—Indications
tonight point to a deadlock on wool
revision, which now takes legislative
precedence. The I. N. S. correspond
ent is informed that an informal con
ference of senate democrats wah held
at which eighteen senators agreed to
stand firmly for the wool schedule
which passed the House.
A vote is to be taken on this sched
ule next Thursday. Its defeat is cer
tain. It has been the hope of the dem
ocrats and insurgents, however, that
they would be able to get together
on a compromise that could be sent to
conference. These eigl^een senators,
however, it Is understood, will de
cline any compromise and will insist
upon the acceptance of the Under
wood schedule. In this event a dead
lock will ensye which will defer all
further tariff legislation until the reg
ular session, which meets in Decem
ber.
McCoy and Lieb coudd not come to
an understanding about who v/as boss
of that thing so McCoy got mad and
left the diamond—at the suggestion of
his honor.

Four, for the week’s meanderings.
Three from Greensboro was the sur
prise of the week.
Leibrich was off on balls and strikes
in a glaring manner.
Ginger was still lacking and the
affair was tar from the standard set
by the Hornets in the first part of the
week.
Hanki'j pitched a wonderful game
and id iiot allow the visitors to reach
second but twice.
lie aHowed only four hits and no
t vo came in the same inning.
liie errors of his team-mates got
him in bad to start out with and he
worked at a disadvantage throughout
the game.
Big, loose jointed Childers laid up
agin’ one of Hankie’s twisters that
sailed to the far corner of the lot and
looked good for a count, but the fast
work of McMillan kept the lumbering
citizen on second.
Swindell swallowed another dose of
the medicine that the Hornets handed
to him on his last appearance here,
yesterday in Greensboro.
What do you know of Greensboro
routing that Twindell bunch three
times in the same place?
The days of miracles are still In
vogue.
Maybe the vacation of Goughin had
something to do with it.

Where There
(Continued from page one.)
“It would also be the best thing for
Louisiana,” he saird. “The planters
down there are antiquated, use anci
ent methods and machinery and are
not scientific farmers. The reduction in
the tariff would wake them up and
modernize them like it did Hawaii.”
Mr. Spreckles said that the refiner-
lies and planters, both beet and cane
sugar in this country would compete
with the world without a tariff.

Lenoir, July 22.—The tax assessors
of this county have just completed
their work and the total valuation of
taxable property, real and personal
in Caldwell county has "oeen assessed
at $3,858,918, an increase over the as
sessment for 1910 of 18 per cent. At
the increased assessment it is hoped
by the county commissioners that the
tax levy for the county can be reduced
this year. The county is about out of
debt, as there is only an indebted
ness of about $6,000 outstanding at
present and it will take about this
amount to run the counc}'^ until the
taxes for 1911 have been collected,
making an indebtedness of about $10,-
000. At the present rate, in another
year the county will ^ practically out
of debt.
