GOOD FOR JOHN SMITH. Governor Smith has honored the requisition from Governor McLean for Hayes and Anderton, the prime mov ers in the organization of the Fish eries Products Company. It was this .company that induced many farmers to invest their all. and, in some eases to morgage their farms, to buy stock in that now defunct company. One well-to-do farmer went to the poor house and another (lied from the re sult of* the losses sustained. The exposure of the doings of that fly-by-night corporation aroused the indignation of the people of the State, and the last Legislature directed ac tKfn looking to protect the men who had purchased the stock. Governor \ McLean acted promptly ami wisely and Attorney General Brummitt has been diligent. It is the duty of the State to go to every possible extent to compel restitution and punish the slick dealers whose glib-tongue and rosy representation caused farmers to x lose their savings and their farms. Criminal prosecution will be pressed. John Smith may yet come into his ; own.—News and Observer. Cabarrus county people contribut ed rather generously to the Fisheriesi Product fompany ami anouneement that officers of the defunct company are to be prosecuted will come as wel come news here. There are two lessons to be learn ed from this case. First. strangers ; with promises of great dividends should be investigated, and second, heads of defunct companies when i, there is apparent fraud from the be-i £ ginning should be available to crimi nal action. If we can convict a few: of them iu our courts, their comrades will become fewer in this State. CAN COLONEL MITCHELL OUT? Er. . Colonel Mtichell doesn’t, was to stay in the army if he can’t talk. De- E; spite the fact that the court ina.rtial K . sentence of five years suspension from fe- the army and forfeiture of alt pay i|. Vas modified by the President so #f that he could get some of bis money: K.. and allowances, the former air chief | has resigned. gfe The big question now concerijs ac jjf ’tion to be taken by the President. It j: is customary for officers resigning to / state that they are doing so “for the' H good of the service.” Colonel Mitchell. ® -doesn't think he is doing that, so he* Hjj.didn’t put that iu his resignation. He 'i- just said he was quitting, f • in some circles it is argued that the resignation will not be accented he ft..- cause of tile omission of the eustom- HC ary clause. Os course if the Persi | dent Refuses to accept the resignation g, Colonel Mitchell ean go to court, thus EV setting a precedent. • We. have no doubt that Colonel K? Mitchell eaii earn more as a private [||: citizen than he could as an officer. He: j£{ h«s been asked to continue his lec- EjL tare tour in behalf of a unified air H, service for national defense ami he, KlomUt get a fancy price for his ser-i HUi> However, the sting of the court martial will be with him always, I regardless, of whether or not he was right. j “Ol’R SUNDAY GANG” HERB. Secretary H W. Blanks, of the € Concord Y. M. C. A., is sponsoring the i organisation here of “Our Sunday ’ Gang,’.’ to b ecomposed of boys be- I tween the ages of 8 and 14 years. The 1 object of the organization is to get the youngsters to Church and Sunday j School at least once each Sunday. t Mr. Blanks contends, and we agree < with the opinion, that if he can get j members of the organization, or even part of them, in the habit of attending * Church and Sunday Sobol for say. six * months, the habit will stick and the g city will be greatly benefitted. More c than 75 boys were on hand for the ; first meeting last Sunday and it is predicted that 150 will be present Sun- l day when the organization will be 0 perfected. **a. * We know of nothing finer undertak- v en by the Y. M. C. A. officials than # this effort to get boys Into the Sun- i, day Sehols and Churches. If they B can be persuaded to attend Church b it will take many from the streets n where they spend much time on Sun- £ days now. It will take many of them b from bad companionship and best of ’ all will lay the foundation for an active service for the Church. H All of the boys joining will not stick h either to the organization or its rules, t but if a few of them can be directed t into the Church the movement will * have been a success. v __ t In the passing of Kindred L. Ora- ' ven, the city loses one of its oldest 1 and best ciOzens. Modest and unas- j suming. he was yet a man of strong , character and one whose influence was always exerted for the right and j for the highest interests of the com munity. He was always firm in the right as God gave him to see the right. In all matters of public con cern he always took a firm stand on the side of progress and right, and iu the affairs of his church, to which he was greatly devoted, he took, as long as his strength permitted, an active | and earnest interest. ( • FOWLER WOMAN GIVES UP FIGHT; GETS SIX MONTHS Submits to Manslaughter After Jury Is. Discharged—She May Be Hired Oilt. Monroe. Jan. 27.—Bertha Case, alias Mrs. Bertha Fowler, charged with the murder of Frank Fowler, her “unwed mate." after a mistrial had been declared and the solicitor had announced that the woman would be tried again at the July term of I'nion County Superior Court, through her counsel. John C. Sikes, entered a plea of manslaughter, and was immediate ly sentenced by Judge Stack to serve six months in the Union county jail, or to be hired out by the county commissioners. It is understood that her brother in-law, a Mr. Miller, of Hamlet, will attempt to engage her services in order that she may be kept with her children, of whom there are two. Fowler’s action in feeding the baby coffee was one of the contributing factors and the killing, in which short skirts, a churn dasher, a pistol, a hammer and other household imple ments, including a razor, played prom inent parts. \ Judge Stack dismissed the jury at 11:40 this morning after they had deliberated since 4:30 o’clock jester-, day afternoon. It is understood that! one vote was taken yesterday after- 1 noon, the result being eight for man slaughter and four for acquittal. The jury slept over the matter and voted again this morning, with the result that there were eleven for manslaught er and one for acquittal. The jury then reported to Judge Stuck for further instructions, and voted again, eight for manslaughter and four for acquittal. The woman told the jury that she ' shot Fowler following a quarrel in which he had threatened her life. A brother of Fowler, however, who was in the home at "the time, testi fied that the woman did not kill in defense of her life and child, as she had declared. Fowler before his death ■ requested that she not be prosecuted. - and left bis estate to his son by the woman, who is 23 years of age. I Fowler was married to another woman while he lived with Bearth ; case. GRAHAM L. DAVIS TO ASSIST RANKIN Will Be Manager of Headquarters Office of Duke Hospital Foonda ■ tion.

Charlotte, Jan. 26.—Former Gov ernor Cameron Morrison will not run for the United States senate while Senator Overman want* the place: will not use his influence to defeat Max Gardner, of She.by, for the Democratic gubernatorial nomi nation in 1928, aud has not aligned himself with the faction said to be trying to persuade A. M. Scgles, of Greensboro, to enter the race for the nomination in 1925. Such is the gist of the facts car ried in an editorial in the Chnriotte News and these fkets or statements apparently are based on direct as sertions by the former governor in. conversation ywith the editor of the News. x Mr. Morrison wants to go to the Unted States Senate but wiH not oppose Mr. Overman, but will run for the Senate "if life is spared him, when the way is opened.” / "Mr. Morrison,’’ according to the article “moreover, is not interesting himself in trying to defeat Mr. Gard ner, is not responsible for what ha* been said to Mr. Scales/about run ning against Mr. Gardner, tins not even aligned himself with his Greens boro friend in the event the latter announces his aspirations for the governor’s post. "Mr. Morrison.” it was pointed out "is friendly to Mr. Garduer. as is his former campaign manage-, Jus tice Clarkson, as is also Senator Simmons with whom Mr. Morrison has traditionally taken political counsel, and he understands quite well that to array himself ngainst the Shelby candidafe would not only be bad personal faith after wnat Mr. Gardner has done for his administra tion, but that his own political future would not be enhanced by anything that he might attempt now •to do to defeat the aspirations of his former gubernatorial opponent.” COOLIDGE-AL SMITH TICKET IS PICTURED Republicans and Democrats Uniting on Non-Partisan Basis Seen by Depew. New York. Jan. 27. —Republicans and Democrats marching arm-in-arm to the polls in 1928 and voting a non partisan ticket, with Calvin Coolidge for President and Governor A1 Smith for vicp president. - was pictured as a possibility by Chauncey M. Depew in an address today before the Pil grims Society. He described the present as the “most wonderful age of non-partisanship in polities in his 70 years of experience." “I was born in a day of party poli tics," Mr. Depew said, "and as a lad I I learned to shout for my ptuPy. I march for my party, fight for 'my . party and starve for my party, if t necessary. What do we find today J “A tax bill always the subject for acute controversy and party feeling, being passed unanimously by the , Honse of Representatives and slated to pass the Senate with comparative ’ ly little agitation. I think Cal Cool idge must have studied old Ben Franklin, for he has decided not to go up in an airplane and view the affairs of the nation from some God- II like position on high, but to come down to earth and meet the response of the people for economy and thrift. “And if the present general pros-' : perity continues, if the people con - tinue to devote themselves to busi ness, if employment continues plenti ful. there will be another miracle in " 1928.” Farthest Point From Railroad. * “How many njiles can a person ■ get from the railroad in the United • States proper?” This question is asked by H.

Ariz.. which is 160 miles from the rail ' road." writes Mr- Baldwin. "The j ’ missionaries there carry on the - work of schools and hospitals.

His wife had been il Ifor sev eral weeks aud his health was very lioor during the p£st mouths, and al thoiArh his brothers and his father had recently helped him considerably in a financal way, it is believed tliaj. be ing a most conscientious young man. and being unable t oiueet bis hospital and doctor bills, he was unwilling to allow his people to further bother with him. and that the thought of this, with liis poor condition of health, drove him to temporary insanity, dur ing a fit of which he committed the rash act. He tied A chain about his neck and then fastened the other end of the chain to the baluster of the stairway and jumped, hanging himself in the vacant space below. He was found by his wife and a neighbor a short 1 while after the act. By means of an instrument called* the "brgss brain,” the movement qf, 1 the tides cun be foretold.
