At a former trial he was found guilty of murdor in the second degree for the killirg of Judge Thornton L. Masse. He is the second one of the Allen clan to be convicted of first degree murder. His father, Floyd Allen, also was convicted. There seems little doubt but what Floyd Allen and his son will both be electrocuted. Virginia officials are going a little slow but they are doing their work in a strictly judicial way, according to the law of equity.

A GREAT SPEECH After three years of persistent dril- lirg for oil in Allen county, the pat ient labor of the operators was »e- warded a few days ago by a sudden outburst of oil from a well 130 feet deep. The owners of the well had not figured on tapping a gusher and when the oil began to spout at the rate of 150 barrels a day they were rather poorly prepared to take care of it. They immediately proceeded to buy up all the barrels in the country and and rush them to the scene, but the barrel supply soon gave out and the flow of oil continued. When there were no more barrels to put it in it w IS permitted to run into a creek near the well while some of the dnllers left for the oil fields of Illinois to secure a supply of tanks and others began trying to plug up the well.

Senator Simmons and his lieutenants should *.ome in for commendation for the conservative course which they have adopted for the campaign. While Governor Kitchin is going up and down the State wildly attacking what has become known as Simmons’ record, Simmons has refrained from compli menting Kitchin’s twelve years’ lecord as a Congressman, or his pardoning record as a Governor. By this course. Senator Simmons insures, so far as he is concerned, a canvass pitched upon a high plane, a campaign incomparably more decent that the gubernatorial campaign four years ago, when Kitchins record was aired up and down the State by Craig. Again we say, Simmons course should be applauded. Kitchin is certainly making no votes by the course he is pursuing, for the people know that Simmons record is one of accomplishments—a record of results secured. The more it is talked about the better it is understood and better understanding is all to Simmons good.—Charlotte Observer.

C. 3.65 3.65 3.35 335 3 00 3.00 300 from all Simmons Arraignment of Payne-Aldrich Tariff Law Senator Simmons made one of th6 best speeches of his careeer last Thui*s- day in the Senate when the wool hill was presented to the senate for passage and received the hearty felicitations of his colleagues upon the concise and able manner in which he presented the Dem ocratic side of the question. The plat forms of both parties in 1908, he said, promised an honest revision of the tariff. This followed a demand from the people for relief from the oppression caused by the excessive duties of the existing tariff act. “Under the shelter of the tariff the necessi iesof life were monr^>olized and placed beyond the reach of some classes,” said Mr. Simmons. “The cost of living has been materially increased, and many articles can not be purchased by working men, clerks, and others of limits means. The people had a right to expect promises would be kept and the burden lessened. In this they were disappointed. There was indeed a revision, but one that afforded no relief. The slight changes did not tend to remove the burden borne by the consumer. No change whatever was made in the wool schedule although it was notoriously the most objectionable and excessive in the land. Republican leaders in the senate declared the revision was a mere sham and the people would never forgive the party for betraying them. No appeals were heard except from the beneficiaries of protection. The Presidedt and the leaders had to choose between the peo ple and the interests, and they selected the beneficiaries of protection. “A storm ot disapproval and condem- I nation swept the country after sham revision was accomplished. It was shared by a large element in the Republican as well at the Democratic party It was the beginning of that division in the Republican party which culminated in Chicago and has given the country for the first time in years a third great political party.” Mr. Simmons reviewed the action of a democratic house recognizing the mandate of the peoj le and beginning tariff revision on sound and reasonable lines. The woolen industry, he chained, though receiving tarifT favors were paying the lowest wages of any industry in tne country, and that in certain sections they have practically ceased to employ Americans in their factories and were recruiting their labor from the backward countries ef Europe. This industry, he said, while paying low wages and employing pauper labors from southern and eastern Europe instead of our own, whenever a suggestion of reducing their 90 per cent protection was made, swarmed around the capitol, demanding: a continuance of these excessive and outrageous rates in (che name of pro tection for American labor, and declar ing that if these dutip.8 were reduced, they would be forced to go out of busi ness or reduce the wages of their em ployes. His indictment of the wool schedule of the Payne-Aldrich bill was terrific and scathing. He showed that the general average tariff on woolens was over 90 per cent and that 27 articles in this schedule were protected by duties of over 100 per cent. ‘How Come?’ Will Cause Heavy Dam age. The army worm which is “marching throngh Georgia,” will do $1,000,000 worth of damage to the corn, cotton and other crops of that State, accord ing to an estimate by the State en tomologist of Georgia in a report to the department of agriculture. What the amount of injury will be in the other Southern States which the pest has invaded has not yet been figured, although it is feared that farmers and I^anters will suffer heavily. “I was cured of diarrhoea by ore dose of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy,” writes M.

Governor Kitchin now seems to be very much wrought up lest men who are not Democrats vote in the senato rial primary this fall. The Henld also thinks only straight Democrats—those who vote the ticket from snout to tail —should be allowed to vote in that pri mary, but “how come” the governor such a stickler for party regularity ail of a sudden? Only as far back as 1909 he was upholding the hands of the bolters and political soreheads in Rockingham who deliberately defeated the late Reuben Reid for the state senate, and appointed one of them to an office oyer the protest of Serator Reid and his wing of the party—the wing that always votes the straight this ticket and in season and out fights to keep the party true to its principles—in regard to trusts as well as other matters.

Once, and not so long ago, the high type of the State’s public men was the boast of her citizens But the old stock is still there and doubtless yet will re assert itself. Blease is a thorn in the side of South Carolina.
