MONDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1911. GOLD IN THE STATE. Once North Carolma achieves an enviable reputation as a gold produc ing Estate. There were many mines opened up and operations were carried ■ n xter.SiVely. But later the industry in this stata was allowed to dwindle dov n until for many years the state was scaiccly considered as a mining I ate bc^a.iEe of its inictlvity in tha Industry. Duiing reccnt years, however, there h«;. b'T' :i a re\ival ot interest in min ing, and just uow several notable mines are Being worked successfully on a large scale. Numerous outside f.apitalists have been interested and many mines, having ehauged into new h^nds, are being operated with great profit. It is said that the rubies foun^ in North Carolina are the flne&t in the world. In mica production the state loads all others. Most of the precious stones and metal can be tound in the :>tate, and especially is their an abun dance ot gold. Government figures show that in 3 91'> we produced a total of 3,291.67 « unces of gold, valued at $08,045, and y,u53 ounces of silver, valued at $4,888. We have 23 placer mines and 13 deep mines. The United States Geological isurvcy reports gold production In 16 North Carolma counties in 1910. Of these the district comprised of Mont gomery a. i Randolph counties produce by far the largest part of the total, the gold-production being 2 425.57 ounces, valued at $50,141. A district composed of Orange, Person and Howan produc ed the most silver, the production be ing 8,459 ounces, valued at $4,568. FIGHTING PELLAGRA. Tennessee physicians are awaking to the importance of combatting the spread of pellagra. Reports sent out from Washington last week show that there are several hundred cases of infection in the South t:iday. Many cities are taking an active lead in the work of providing facilities fqr sci entific inve&rtigation. Notable among the number is Atlanta. The importance of the work can not be over-estimated, and no better move could be made by local* physicians than to pull to gether in the effort to make this city headquarters of the investigation 'Which the government proposes to commence. The Memphis Commercial Appeal prints a story telling of the meeting of Teoaessee physicians, which follows: Dyereburg, Teon., Sept. 29.—The pel lagra symposium held here tonight waa well attended by physicians and citizens was well attended by phy- alcians and citizens of this city, and close attention was given to those who apoke upon the subject of pellagra. Dr. Albright, secretary of the state board of health, was the first speaker, his subject being the history of pella gra In Tennessee. He stated there were 1,130 reported cases in the state. Other speakers were Drs. Somerville tnd Leroy of Memphis and Dr. Krause, chairman of the state pellagra com- mlBsion. A negro woman who has been a victim of the disease, and treated ■ucceisfully by a local physician, was •hown the public by Dr. Krause to il lustrate a part of his remarks on the mibject. Dr. Albright is decidedly of the opinion that pellagra is an infec tious disease, and the state board of health has recommended isolation in •very case. On the other hand. Dr. Krau8« does not hold to this theory, and BO stated in an interview with a representative of the Commercial Ap peal. “OiiA booster Is worth more to Oreanrllle than a dozen kickers” ob- •erres the Qreenville Daily Piedmont. We had fancied Wichard too gallant to make such a base thnuit at the chorus llrls. That “Swing around the circle” Is MBumlng the air of a returning unsuc pesaful 'trip from the North Pone. Spartanburg’s atreet car Is running igain without interruption. Tboae boosters will return, not sad- |er, but wlaer man. QREBD AND WAR. Scarcely had a peace pact between three of the largest nations of the world been signed when war between Turkey and Italy was announced. Just when peace conferences were being held, when international arbitration of disputes was a theme dwelt upon by creators and newspapers, the war cloud appears to upset all plans of universal peace. It is to be hoped that the pres ent trouble may be settled without further resort to arms. And yet with greed as the basis of the trouble it is difficult to always settle disputes of this nature amicably. The effort of Italy to add to their territory is no more than that made by ather powers In years past in the great grab game for American and other territory. The Journal of Commerce gives an idea as to how the powers have been trad ing in the past, in the following: •When the Italian seizure of Tripoli has been righteously denounced as an act of naked pillage’ and ‘frank brigandage,’ the difficulty presents it self ofdifferentiating it from the pro ceedings of other European powers in North Africa. It has never been diffi cult to find a pretext for snatching some part of the land that once was Carthage, and later Rome from the hands into which it fell. The Italian pretext Is not more flimsy than the suc cessive reasons which were given for tho I’Yench conquest of Algiers; it is more intelligible than the excuse al leged for the dispatch of German war veh'-sels to the Moroccan port of Agadir as a preliminary to the demand for a slicc of the French Congo, and it is almost as respectable as the demand for whose satisfaction England first occupied Egypt. Italy has shown a lively interest in Tripoli for the last fifty years, for, among other reasons-. Tripoli lies over against Sicily, and the passessor of Sicily could no more be indifferent to the ownership of Trip oli than could the occupant of Gibral tar to the hrlding of Tangiers. The ex- lension of the African Empire of Kranco toacl’cd Italy* closely, espec- i.Tlly when it came to t.*3 establish- n'.cnt of a protectorate over Tunis. All hut those whoL--* business it is to re member have probably forgotten that it V as ut the congress of Berlin in ISTS that France got a free hand in Tunis in return for her acquiescence in the Eritish ‘lease’ of Cyprus. "So did France secure British con sent for exercising a free Hand in Mo rocco. when she withdrew her opposi tion to the continued British occupa tion of Egypt. Then followed the Ger man reminder that another great pow. er had to be reckoned with, and the process of linally ‘squaring’ the dis turber of the ‘entente’ is not yet tech nically c mplete. But it has apparently gone far enough to convince -^aly that the time h^d come to strike for Tripoli. The Italian government refused until 1896 its adhesion to the pact of 1878 in regard to Tunis. It was granted on the understanding that the ‘peaceful penetration’ bv Italy of the Turkish villayet should not b opposed by any of the powers immediately interested. Turkey claims that this right has- been strictly respected, and a3 the Young Turks were naturally desirous to avoid trouble from such a quarter it may fairly be assumed that the claim is well founder. But the Young Turks in their rash desire to ‘naturalize’ a raci- auy and religiously discordant empire have done more to precipitate the dis solution of the Ottoman power than all the despots who proceeded them. Tur- ker may be drifting into the hands of a closer international receivership than that which now administers her tlebt, Or she may be about to fall to pieces by the violent operation of force of internal discontent. Whether the seiz ure by Italy of her share of the spoil was effected with the previous consent of any of the other claimants to a re version of the ‘Sick Man's inheritance.’ only a short time will be needed to show. Since the indignation of the German newspapers must be accepted as genuine, Berlin must be acquitted of having had any share in the trans action.” E FOREST Special to The New’s. Wake Forest, Oct. 2.—The football season of Wake Forest College for the season of 1911 opened Saturday with a game with Warrenton High School as is the custom. The field was dry and dusty and was so hot as to keep spec tators away but the teams went at It in a different spirit and although the game was a little one-sided the inter est never lagged. The Warrenton team weighed about 145 while their opponents had them outweighed by at least 20 pounds. Both teams worked hard and fast and the superior coaching of Coach Thompson showed on every hand. Not only did Wake Forest win but the line up pre sented was not the first team in it’s entirety. Billings, one of the regular half backs was out of th© game on ac count of a wrenched knee while neith er Dunn or Gattis were able to play, and Faucett, quarter back, was out on acco,unt of sickness. These men alone will be a tower of strength to the team and will be able to play in the Carolina game next Saturday. Gattis is a tackle while Dunn will hold down the center position. Only twice during the game was Warrenton able to gain the required QUITE OFTEN THE STOM- ACM, LIVER AND BOWELS NEED HELP IN ORDER TO KEEP STRONG 6i ACTIVE. In such cases take nothing but —————— OSTETTER’ OKLBBRATKD STOMACH BITTER ten yards and then on forward passes. The visitors were never able to gain through the line and when an end run was attempted they were nearly al ways thrown for a loss. They attempt ed the forward pass several times but were able to work it successfully only twice and then on fakes. Both the defense and offense of the team was remarkable in every play. The first quarter started off with Warrenton receiving. The ball was returned to the twenty-yard line and after w^orking a forward pass success fully one time it was tried again and failed. W^ake Forest then carried the ball over on a forward pass to Joy ner. Wake Forest received the ball after the first touchdown and on the kick off it was returned by Holding, B., fifty yards. An onside kick and a tackle around tackle play by Parker gave Wake Forest her second touph down. The third touchdown in this quarter was the result of Joyner’s re covering a kick and running thirty yards for a touchdown. In the second quarter a forward pass to Joyner and a recovered kick by Singleterry gave Wake Forest two more touchdowns. After a ten-minutes rest the teams came back refreshed and started in again in earnest. In this quarter Wake Forest scored four touchdowns on two line rushes, a recovered kick, and a 45-yard run after a touchback. The fourth netted two more on a line rush and a forward pass. At no time during the game was the Wake Forest goal in danger for only twice were the visitors able to go the required ten yards. Twice W'ake Forest lost the ball on account of the quarters being up on the half yard line. The defense of the team was nearly perfect while the offense was all that one could wish. To have kept track of the long runs would have been Im possible for they were to be seen on every hand. Wake Forest used twen ty men among them being: Holding, R., Joyner, Moss and Rankin, ends; Parker, Holding, Harward, and Jones, tackles; Green, Williams, Rankin, Brittain, guards. Carter and Ramseur, center: Betts, Capt. quarter; Single tary. Savage, Faucett, W. Harris and Cates, backs. Two new m^, “Iky” Gattis and Lon nie Dunn formerly of the A. & M. team, will also play on the team this year but w'ere not able to report in time for yesterday’s game. Both in tend to take law and go before the supreme court and will both be in next Saturday’s .came with the university at Chapel Hill. The basketball team is working hard and are showing up well for this early in the season. The team last year v.’hich included Beam, and Holding, R., forwards. Holding, B., center, and Ut ley and Dowd guards are all back and eager to start playing. The vacant date in the football schedule for the 2Sth of October has been filled by Catawba college and will be plaj’^ed at Wake Forest. 7/ie Capital City News Depajtment Special to The News.
