J. 8.~ SHERRILL, Editor and Publisher W. M. SHERRILL, Associate Editor Special R^uesentative: FROST, LANDIS & KOHN New York. Atlanta, St. Louis, Kansas City. San Franeieco, Los Angeles and Seattle THE CHALLENGE OF THE IRREG ULARS. Five Senators from the West, elected on Republican tickets but more general ly recognized as “irregulars, whate\ er that means, have sent a challenge to the leaders at Washington. They don’t make threats, they don’t shout from the house tops, nor do the\ wield a big stick, but they’ve got dyna mite in their joint utterance despite its jilky tone. The five are in W ashington, and they have gotten together there, they assert, to achieve “some unity of purpose and some solidarity of action on matters which seem to us important. ’ That’s the message and it means no doubt, trouble for the Republican party unless these Senators and others they . hope to enlist” are given more recogni tion in Washington. “We are not trying to promote the candidacy of anybody for a presidential nomination,” the five de clare further, but they admit it ‘‘as indi viduals we would be glad to support Sen ator Norris whenever he consents for his name to be used.” There’s the suggestion. They are just waiting to see what happens and they are prepared for any emergency. They do not like to be called “irregular” because they are from the west and do not always line up with the east. They are prepared to fight for certain rights, although in a calm and suave manner they make known their challenge. Furthermore they say: “These conferences haven’t the slight est thing to do with a third-party move ment. We proceed upon the theory that the Republican party is a national" party and not an eastern party. We proceed upon the theory that if we make our wish es known in a proper way and with suf ficient force they will be respected and considered by the party. Ours is a pret ty large country' and it now extends from the Mississippi to the Pacific. When eastern senators and represen tatives confer upon matters of peculiar interest to their portion of the country', such as protection to their manufactur ing interests and naval stations, thev are still regarded as regular and sometimes referred to as active and patriotic. When western senators and representatives con fer with reference to matters which par ticularly concern their portions of the country, they seem to be regarded as ir regular, insurgent and radical. Now, all that arises out of the disposi tion among a few of our eastern friends to assume that Republican policies can only originate within certain territory and Republican principles can emanate only from certain quarters. We do not desire to intrude unnecessarily upon this idea. But we feel that a reasonable de gree of solidarity with reference to our western interests and problems will help for a better understanding. There’s the challenge, and as we are approaching a presidential year it is reasonable to presume that these west erners will get some attention from the administration in the next Congress. CANCER STILL INCREASES The death rate from cancer in the L nited States is steadily mounting, the Spectator, insurance journal, says in its issue today. Frederick L. Hoffman, consulting stat istician of the Prudential, Life Insur ance Company, author of the Spectator, article, attributes the increasing toll from cancer to the “profound alterations in our modern mode of living as compared or contrasted witfj the more natural mode of living in former years.” This conclusion, Mr. Hoffman main tained, is “emphasized by a study of can cer in native races which almost invaria bly yields evidence to the effect that ma lignant diseases among primitive people are exceedingly rare in contrast to the ex traordinary frequency among the more highly civilized races.” The fate in 23 American cities in creased from 74.5 per 100,000 in 1906 to 92.3 in 1916 and 114.5 per 100,000 in 1926. The cancer record for 1926 “is a dis mal indictment of the failure of modern efforts to check the ravages of this dread ful affliction,” Dr. Hoffman writes.”. It is amazing to find that most of the cities now have rates in excess of 100 per 100,- 000, while 20 years ago this was exceed ingly rare in the experience of our Ameri can mortality.” t The enormous sums of money which have been expended on cancer research seem to have yielded thus far not a frag ment of evidence of real value toward control and cure of the disease,” the ar ticle states. “The more thoroughly one is familiar with the situation and the more disinterested one is regarding methods to be followed, the more one becomes con vinced of the utter futility of most of the methods at present followed.” Perhaps we will have to change our Bwnner of living if we are to decrease the <*■* cancer cure. Why is the disease less prevalent among the more primitive peo ple? Therein lies the solution, and the medical profession may be counted up on to continue its warfare on the disease until its cause can be ascertained and removed. “NEVER CAN RUN A LIE DOWN.” • A few issues back the Times and Trib une published a story which purported to be a press dispatch sent out from Juliette, Ga., about a little child being killed and its tongue eaten out bv a snake while the child was in a closet, placed there by her mother. The Monroe Journal finds that the snake story was a “big lie’ and repeats the old saying that truth can never over take a lie once the latter is started. “All snake stories, thinks the Journal, “that is stories relating only to the marvel of snakes, are more or less imaginary, but a deliberate lie of this character is past all bounds.” We agree with that sentiment. News papers would not publish such stories if they knew they were not true, but how is the newspaper to find out? A friend of The Journal sent in a copy of the Thomaston, Ga., Times of Septem ber 7, concerning the snake -story-and we publish it also, because we published the snake story: “The story about the coach-whip snake choking to death a little girl of Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Gunn of Upson county is still going the rounds of the press despite its denial in the Times and other papers a few weeks ago. “Mrs. Gunn has received fourteen let ters this week from persons in Alabama, Tennessee, Indiana, Florida, North Car olina, and many points in Georgia, about the snake story. Most of these offer sym pathy while a few condemn her for put ting the little girl in the closet. “The story as it appeared was a hor rible one and seems to have caught the imagination of the people. It first ap peared under a date line of Goggansville and later from Juliette. As soon as it was first published the editor of the Times labeled it a lie and published the infor mation. in the Times. Since that time many papers have corrected the story and apologized for publishing it. However, it is hard to correct the story everywhere and Mr. and Mrs. Gunn have been great ly annoyed as a result of the publication of the story.” ENCOURAGING FIGURES. Cabarrus people should find much of interest and encouragement in the report of,County Superintendent S. Glenn Haw field, showing a marked increase in high school attendance throughout the coun ty. Now that ways have been devised to keep the high schools in operation eight months in the year there are many evi dences in the report showing that patrons of the schools are anxious for their chil dren to take advantage of the new order of things. The Bethel, WinecofF and Harrisburg high schools have completed their first month’s work and the enrollment and at tendance figures for the high school de partments alone were: Bethel: Enrollment 106 ; average at tendance 96. Harrisburg—Enrollment 87 ; average attendance 78. Winecoff—Enrollment 79 ; average at tendance 77. Total—Enrollment 272; average at tendance 251. The above figures indicate that the percentage of attendance for the month was over 92 per cent, in spite of the fact that September is a busy month for the farmers. It is true that a few parents did not' start their children during the month. On the other hand, it should be remembered that the enrollments in the same schools for the first month last year were as follows: Bethel—7s; Harrisburg 58; Winecoff, 42; total 175. Thus it is seen that these three schools, enrolled during the first month this year almost one hundred pupils more than they did last year. In this connection it should be noted that the Mt. Pleasant High School now has enrolled in the high school department 152 pupils, as against a maximum enrollment of 117 for last year. The four rural high schools have enrolled 424 pupils. The highest enroll ment last year was 331. There are still others to come in and just as soon as the "busy season is over these will take their places in the school rooms. We agree with Mr. Hawfield in the opinion that “the figures are ,very en couraging” and “indicate both a willing ness and an eagerness of the parents of Cabarrus county to give their children school advantages equal to those enjoy ed by the boys and girls of adjacent counties.” We are encouraged not merely by the enrollment; we are delighted with the average daily attendance. It is import ant that students be present each day if they are to successfully follow the cours es of instruction offered, and while we appreciate the fact that many high school students are needed at home part of the time now during the harvest season, we are certain the parents will be rewarded if they will keep the children at home only when such action is absolutely nec essary. The Cabarrus rural schools are off to an excellent year and we believe the pres ent term will prove one of the most bene ficial in the history of the county. BIG VOLUME OF COTTON GOODS SALES. That a large volume of cotton goods has been manufactured and sold during the first three quarters of this year is in dicated in a statistical report for this per iod just compiled by the Association of Cotton Textile Merchants of New York. Sales of standard cotton cloth during the nine months ending September 30th amounted to 2,508,454,000 yards. This was 108.6 per cent, of production which was 2,308,715,000 yards. Shipments amounted to 2,354,029,000 yards, or 102 per cent, of production. While more than the current output was moving into channels of consump tion, the report shows that stocks of goods declined and unfilled orders in creased. Stocks on hand at the beginning of the year amounted to 247,234,000 yards. Stocks on hand September 30th amount ed to 201,920,000 yards, a decrease of 18.3 per cent. Unfilled orders on January Ist were 324,943,000 yards. On September 30th unfilled orders amounted to 479,368,000 yards, an increase of 47.5 per cent. By the addition of upwards of 100 other kinds of standard cotton textiles since the beginning of the year the re ports compiled by. the Association now provide more comprehensive statistics of the industry than have been available hitherto. This additional information has been made possible through the co operation of The Cotton-Textile Insti tute, Inc. which is compiling reports from mills not previously reporting to the Association, and also from additional re ports now furnished by members of the Association. The consolidated report now includes more than 300 standard kinds of cotton cloth and represents a large proportion—in some cases more than 90 per cent.—of the production and' sale of these cloths in the United States. KEEPS HIS APPEAL. More remarkable than his epic flight from New York to Paris is Colonel Lind bergh’s ability to retain popular favor. He has been constantly before the pub lic since he landed at Le Bourget Field, yet so far as is known, he has not made mistakes so often characteristic of per sons thrown suddenly into the limelight. Colonel Lindbergh is tired, his face and features show this, and he needs and deserves a long rest, but just the same he retains that youthful enthusiasm, that boyish bashfulness and that modest te merity that appeal so to the public. He is a famous aviator, but better still he’s a true man. He has proved his worth better by his conduct as a hero than he did by accomplishing something to become a ,hero. He’s every inch a man, a credit to America. DUKE INTERESTS CHALLENGE OUTSIDERS, v Continuing their advertising program in national publications, the Duke Pow er Company officials in their latest adver tisement challenge outsiders to “take your car to the Carolinas” and “judge the amazing facts first hand.” • The advertisement reads: Who can describe the opportunities that await you in Piedmont Carolinas as vividly as you can see them for your self? Who can tell, so well as you, what the market opportunities are, the raw mater ial sources, the labor supply, the power and transportation facilities? Who can size up first hand, better than you, the ideal location for your factory, the living conditions you will encounter? The man who heads a successful busi ness is usually the one man in that or ganization most capable of managing its affairs. In such an undertaking as re-lo cation of your plant, you are best able to weigh the facts and to draw conclusions. That is why you are ideally fitted to drive down to the Piedmont Carolinas this fall and personally check up on all the facts that vitally affect your business and its future. For the future of your business is tied up in these unusual conditions. It lies in your hands whether you will enlist these advantages on your side or whether you will sooner or later be forced to compete against them. Are you able to meet competitors who can produce equal quality at costs that average from 14 to 26 per cent, less than yours? Are you willing to let them “get the jump”—or do you prefer to be first to offer your trade the savings that you can obtain here; the first to win big markets by virtue of a powerful monopoly of ad vantage for your goods? Engineering reports and lengthy ana lytical studies of locations are valuable and should be obtained, but business leadership is built o*i vision and imagina tion and those qualities are not some thing to be caught second-hand. Seeing this Piedmont Carolina coun try, traveling over it intimately in your car, getting into close personal contact with men of your own type who already are established here —all these will en able you to grasp the meaning of the cold facts that your engineers and expert stat- THE CONCORD TIMES isticians can lay before you. Personal contact will kindle your abil ity to see beyond the statistics (amazing as they are} and to envision the opportun ities that await you here and invite you to greater accomplishment. You doubtless know the Carolinas from travelling through them or from holiday visits to their world-famous resorts, for golf or recreation. You may be familiar with conditions as they were 20 or 25 years ago. Such impressions ought to be supplemented by a first-hand working knowledge of today’s business and indus trial facts about the section.” We are of the opinion that this adver tisement will do much good. Certainly this section is ready to prove its worth to the man who will investigate. It has ad vantages not offered by other sections of the country. BETTER WAY THAN THIS. The North Carolina Klan, an official has told The Charlotte News, is launch ing a campaign to secure the enactment of a law providing a severe penalty for people who commit floggings and similar crimes under the disguise of masks. Is it any worse, we wonder, for the vic tim, to be flogged by a masked man than by a man who is not masked? We fail to see how the proposed law could pro vide any greater degree of protection to citizens than a law making it a severe penalty to commit floggings, with or without a disguise. There is such a law in the State now. Looks to us like the law is being sug gested more for a protection to the Klan than as a protection to individual citi zens. Why would the man willing to violate the law against flogging not be willing also to violate the law against wearing a mask while doing the flogging? Grand Dragon Belser, of Charlotte, who is said to have made public the campaign for the proposed legislation, gives a hint of the Klan’s interest in the law when he said such a law will give critics of flog ging activities an opportunity to line up with the Klan, for the Klan is opposed to floggings, or shut up criticising the Klan for crimes in which it has absolutely no part.” J We can appreciate the desire of the grand dragon to divorce the Klan from all suggestion of crimes, but wouldn’t it be better if the Klan did away with the masks and other disguises? If the Klan really wants to prove to the world that it has nothing to do with the crimes committed behind sheets, masks and other disguises then let its members discard such equipment. How will the law, regardless of who it is sponsored by, relieve the Klan of any blame that is now attached to the organization? How will the public know any better, regard less of the law, whether the floggers are Klansmen or non-Klansmen ? The law will not reveal the identity of the disguised. It is unlawful to flog any body in North Carolina now, yet when floggings are done behind disguises, such as are used by the Klan, then members of that organization get .credit for the crimes. The proposed law will not change this attitude at all. The thing for the Klan to do is discard the disguises and move about openly. That is the only way its members can be freed from suspicious when crimes are committed under cover of sheets, masks and other disguises. THE TRUTH COMING TO LIGHT. To the average person it has been long since the government started suit to re cover oil leases granted during the Hard ing administration. The wheels of jus tice have moved slowly, and there have been times when the public fearer the whole matter would be dropped because of the delay and uncertainty attending the government’s efforts, but slowly, de gree by degree, the truth is coming to light and with such facts comes the gen eral feeling that the leases should have never been granted. The Supreme Court of the United States some months ago said Edward Doheny was not entitled to the leases granted through the suggestion of Albert B. Fall, then a cabinet member. “Graft and corruption” were mentioned by the court in its decision. And now the same court rules that Harry F. Sinclair must also return to the government oil lands leased to him by the same Fall. In ordering the return of the vast pe troleum fields to the government, the highest court held that “all the facts and circumstances require” a finding that the lease and agreement attending its trans fer were ‘'made fraudulently by means of a collusion and conspiracy” between the wealthy oil operator and Albert B. Fall as interior secretary. “It was not necessary for the govern ment to show that it suffered or was lia ble to suffer loss or disadvantage as a re sult of the lease or that Fall by or was financially concerned in this transaction,” Justice Butler said for the court, which was unanimous except that Justices Stone and Van Devanter did not partici pate. Justice Butler then added: “It requires no discussion to make it plain that the facts and circumstances re quire a finding that pending the making of the lease and agreement Fall and Sin claim, contrary to the government’s pol icy for the conservation of oil reserves for - * ■*” t —" ~ - ' I — l ~ - f the Navy and in disregard of law, con spired to procure for the mammoth (oil) company (Sinclair’s concern) all the products for construction work, fuel, oil, etc.; that Fall so favored Sinclair in the making of the lease apd agreement that it was not possible for him loyally and faithfully to serve the interests of the United States or impartially to consider the applications of others for leases in the reserve, and that the lease and agree ment were made .fraudulently by means of collusion and conspiracy between them.” Throughout the opinion Justice Butler was severe in his condemnation of Fall. Referring to the $25,000 payment in Liberty Bonds made to Fall by Sinclair after the former left the Harding admin istration, the court said that obviously this was “not a straightforward transac tion.” “Coming too soon after the supple mental agreement made to perfect and carry out the scheme,” Justice Butler added, “It strengthens and confirms the inference that. Fall had been willing to conspire to defraud the United States; and, taken in connection with other cir cumstances disclosed, it is persuasive ev idence of such a conspiracy between him and Sinclair.” Sinclair and Fall must go on trial soon on conspiracy charges growing out of these transactions denounced by the Su preme Court. Will they be found guilty and sentenced to serve time for their ef forts to turn over to private enterprise the important oil fields of the govern ment? The wheels of justice have moved slow ly, we repeat, but maybe after all they 1 will turn fairly and justly and something may come after all, of the oft-denounced : tactics of Fall and certain of his follow -1 ers in the Republican cabinet. - FIRE LOSSES IN THE SOUTH. As a whole the American people are making progress in fire prevention but in the South we seem headed in the other direction. Although property losses from fire, nearly all of them preventable, ran last year to the startling figure of more than half a billion dollars in the United States, figures thus far this year indicate a little slackening of this alarming toll. Gratifying as this is, how ever, the three months of June, July and August show an increase in fire losses in the thirteen southern states, over the same months of last year. While the nation as a whole has given more attention to the preven tion of fire losses, the southern states have shown a higher toll. For June the losses in the South were $3,920,000 as compared with 3,750,000 in 1926; for Ju ly $4,015,000 as against $2,890,000; and for August, $5,268,000 against $3,177,000. America as a whole needs further study of fire prevention methods and the South should have additional emphasis of the importance of guarding a'gainst fire. We are wasting millions, endangering lives and otherwise taking risks by our refus al to guard against fires. This is a sub ject that everyone should be interested in for fires are no respectors of persons. He flirts with danger who refuses to rec ognize the importance of doing everything possible to make fires fewer. CORPORAL TANNER. New York World. A marvelous physique must hav|e been that of Corporal Tanner to carry him to the age of eighty three in spite of his loss of both making nor mal exercise impossible. years ago, when he campaigned for Harrison, he was already the type and foremost example of the Grand Army man in politics. His appointment as Pension Commissioner in 1801 was his reward, and the point of his long office-holding career. “God help the surplus!” said Tanner, entering upon that office. He meant it; that was one reason why Harrison was forced to displace him. The doughty Corporal must have been amused at what followed, Garfield, ten years earlier, had said that pension expenditure, then $50,000,000, had reached its limit and would decline as the old soldiers died. Under Tanner the annual bill reached $117,000,000. But it was to rise to $144,00,000 on the eve of the Spanish War, and to $172,000,000 in 1014. The number of pension ers rose from 676,000 in Tanner’s time to just short of a million, the maximum, in 1902. The number of widow pensioners did not reach its maximum, 322,294, until 1912. Only elderly voters can now fully realize what political power veterans of the Tanner type wielded forty years ago. The American Legion has not yet attained to anything comparable in the way of influencing public policies and appointments. Times have changed. The great world conflict does not so easily lend itself as did the Civil War to Tan-, nersque oratory about saving the Union. Its veter ans are willing to forget. A BIT CURIOUS. Durham Herald. By the way what is the present relationship, if any, between the Bible league and Tam Bowie? It will be remembered that when the league was drafting its anti-evolution bill, it announced to the world that it would employ a good Christian lawyer to do the legal work The league then hired Mr. Bowie. In view of the feeling that some of the folks seem to have concerning A1 Smith, we wonder if they would now be willing to nominate Tam as “a Christian” lawyer? Os course, it matters little either way, and only a bit of curiosity prompts us to ask that question. It would be interesting to know whether Judge Bowie is still acting as chief counsel and legal advisor for the Bible league. If not, when did his services terminate, and for what reason did they terminate? BLACKSMITH? CERTAINLY. Salisbury Post. Has the blacksmith gone with the hoop skirt, the hair rat and other decadent symbols of * past day? He has not. There are 70,000 blacksmiths in the United States today. There are thousands of horses on the farms and thousands more in cities and towns where the nature of certain jobs calls for horses. Milk wagons, newspaper carts and other vehicles still are drawn by horses. Chil dren for generations have stood at the doors of blacksmith shops and learned valuable lessons in labor and life. We hope the future will not be robbed of the fascinating picture of a blacksmith shoeing a horse. . Mond -.OcJ *°tap, BUsh Star,],. N**,.
