MONDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1911. send out the report that business Is going to the bow-wows, that improve ments will be curtailed and men thrown out of work. You can count on one thing, money will be spent on im provements by the Steel Trust just when it believes it will gain a profit by such expenditure and the decision of a court has nothing whatsoever to do in effecting such decision. Let’s see, what was the fee Mr. Kel- log got in his former efforts to “de fend” the government? And what were his eonnections before he became a faithful slave of the governmenf’s in terests? A Chicago woman has left |3,000 to her horse, and the Wilmington Star thinks the horse’s lawyer has a good opportunity to secure a neat little fee of 13,000. The Washington Herald thinks that baseball will now ’be idle for a good while. PRESIDENT ISSUES Dandruff Goes By the way, the paving problem has not been settled anew for several days. PRAISING A GUILTY TRUST. Did It ever occur to the Durham Sun that perhaps those attorney gen erals of Virginia and the Carolinas were acting In the interest of several thousand growers of tobacco and hun dreds of would-be-manufacturers of the weed when they filed a protest? And did the accompanying thought that in opposing the wishes of these several thousands of growers and man- ’ufacturers, while at the same time championing the divine right of a trust to hold them at its mercy. The Sun it self is proving disloyal to hundreds of Its readers who would like to get a fair price for the product they grow—a price fixed by the law of supply and demand rather than one made up in the drawing room of some trust mag nate’s private council chamber? The attorney generals of these three states have protested against nothing which the supreme court has not al ready proclaimed a violation of law. Which side is the Sun on, the side of law enforcement, regardless of whose toes are trampled upon, or the side of this injured and abused “infant indus try,” which is Just now assiduously endeavoring to get around the decree of the highest court in the land? The Times-Dispatch and the Sun think these state officials have meddled in a matter which does not concern them as public officials. It is a great pity there are not more meddling offi cials and fewer willing to sit supinely and let the trust write their own laws, fix their own prices and cover up their own criminal tracks. The Sun, we suppose, is trying to be loyal to a big trust whose heads reside in Durham, but it is occupying the peculiar position of defending a corpo ration already tried and convicted in court—a corporation which has shown no quarter to rival and which has con sidered no interest eave that of its own success. HeiiEST IIT UST FDR MURDER OF RIGR POINT MAN Since the Steel Trust has been in dicted for guilty acts in the past we are wondering just what interpreta tion will be placed upon that little deal, legalized by Theodore Roosevelt, by which the Sherman anti-trust law was set aside and the holdings of the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company were gobbled up. Incidentally, in order to effect this deal, a panic was brought on which wrecked business generally, and this is another matter which the court may look into. The Roosevelt panic was nothing more than a Wall Street panic. General trade conditions were not responsible for it. And when the ambition of a greedy trust was sated by the Roosevelt liniment the panic ended. Special to The News. High Point, Oct. 30.—Early Saturday their work at the silk mill, Ed! Hodgin a well known white man about 35 years old, who lives near the North State Mines between High Point and Jamestown, was arrested by Chief Ridge and Deputy Sheriff Parrish on a warrant accusing him of the murder of John Lovett who Was killed about a week ago. Hodgin was brought direct to police headquarters where he will be kept a prisoner until the trial this morn ing at 10 o’clock. He insisted that a trial be held at once and that he knows nothing of the crime. It will be re membered John Lovett’s mangled body was found on the railroad track at Marshalls crossing on Thursday morn ing, Oct. 19th. At first it was thought Lovett was run over and killed by the train but investigation caused suspic ion. There was very little blood—not any more than could have come from a body which had met death several hours before the the train ran over it. It could not be ascertained if the bruis es on the body were made by the train or otherwise. There is much evidence against Hod gin, most of which is circumstantial. Some of the strongest being that Hod gin found the two feed sacks and 1.05 in money half mile up the rail road track and the direction of the officers to some points which will be fully dis cussed at the trial which the offi cers think looks pretty bad for Hod gin. As far as can be learned there could have been no motive for murder other than money. It was known Lov ett had about $138.00 on his person and none of this was found. Hodgin insists he knows nothing whatever of the crime. He is a widower with several children and lives on Mr. J. P. Red dings farm, and Lovett had be'fen do ing some work for him the day before. Hodgin said he paid Lovett 50 cents when he left and that (Lovett) was going to Jacksons of Dr. Williams and cut wood and Hodgin insits this Is the last time he saw Lovett alive. When Lovett left Hodgin he carried the two sacks and a spade. Lovett lived on the Johnston road, while a hard worker, yet it was generally believed that he always had several hundred dollars and usually carried a large amount on hifl person.

Stieff Manufacturers of the' Artistic Stieff, Shaw, and Stieff Self-Player Pianos, A dispatch from Anderson is of in terest to the cotton milling industry. It expresses fear for Southern trade if the present war is continued in the Chinese empire. It will be remem bered that during the past two or three years Southern exporting mills have lost something like sixteen million of dollars in trade because of the ces sation of demand for their goods in China. Only a few months ago the ex port trade began to show signs of life, and just when numerous large orders were reported, trouble breaks out which threatens to disrupt trade anew. If for no other reason, then, it is hoped that the trouble in China will be &hort-lived. Unconventionaiitles. “1 just knew you were coming to visit us, Cousing Abigail.

Despite the fact that the United States supreme court has designated tae American Tobacco Company as a criminal corporafion, guilty of various and sundry breaches of the anti-trust law, the Durham Sun continues to pro claim the octupus as one of the deliv ering spirits of the generation. Such blind faith as this is marvelous to read about. The Sun, however, in its de fense rather makes itself ridiculous when It describes attorney generals of three states as “amateur dema gogues.” The market dopesters, in close touch with Wall Street, now tell us that the Steel Trust will withhold millions of dollars it had intended to spend in improvements. The same old blind to fool the public! Let a trust get cor- nei^l, and the first thing it does Is REV. R. J. CAMPBELL The Rev. R. J.
