STORIES OF
QREAT INDIANS
Bv Bbno Soon IMtom
Corrtcht. Kit. WaaUra NI*IHPI Union.
CHIEF RAIN-IN-THE-FACE GOT
UNDESERVED FAME
WITH the possible exception of
Hitting Bnll and Curley, Custer's
Crow scout, more misinformation haa
been written about Rain-In The-Kace
(Itlomagnju) chief of the Hunkpapas
than any other Indian who ever lived.
When he died September 12, 1000, the
word was flashed all over the country
thut "the Indian who killed General
Custer Is dend."
During the Stanley expedition up
the Yellowstone In 1878, Rain-In The-
Face murdered two civilians who had
Strayed from Custer's command, a
crime for which he was arrested by
Oapt. Tom Ouster a year later and
Imprisoned at Fort Abraham Lincoln,
N. D. He escaped and after Joining
the hosttles under Bitting Bull he is
said to have sent word back to the
fort that he would have his revenue
on the whole Custer family and on
Captain Tom In particular.
Out of this threat grew the story
that Rain In-The-Cac* after the battle
of Little Big Horn had cut out Tom
Custer's heart and eaten a piece of It.
Mrs. Ouster In her book "Boots and
Saddles" mukes such an assertion, but
Italn-In-The-Face In telling bla life
story to Dr. Charles A. Bast man, the
noted Sioux writer, denied any such
deed and It Is reasonable to believe
that the Hunkpapa warrior would tell
a member of Ills own race the truth.
More than thnt, Dr. Porter and Gen
eral Henteen, who found Tom Ous
ter's body after the battla, have stated
positively that he was not mutilated
In this way.
In Longfellow's poem 'The Revenge
of Raln-In-The-Faee,*' he repeats the
story, although ha mokes Gen. George
Custer the victim of the atrocity In
stead of Tom Custer. This may be tba
origin of the yarn that Italn-ln-Th*-
Fitce was the slayer of Custer.
The circumstances connected with
his killing the two civilians from Ous
ter's commune] showed that he was a
ruthless, savage warrior. His bold at
tack on Fort Totten, N. D., In imO
with two cmiTpanlons, an act of sheer
bravado growing out of a dare, and
his endurance of the worst tortures of
the Sun Dance without s murmur
proved that he was a man utterly In
different to pain, danger or death.
After the Sioux wars were over
Raln-In-The-Face settled on the Stand
ing Rock reservation and In 1888 ap
plied for admission to the Hampton
school, an effort which lhsplrsd •
second poem (about Mitt—this tlnis
from the pen of another great Ameri
can poet, John G. Whlttler. On the
reservation Kaln-ln-The-Fars became
an Indian policeman.
Why Do They Do It?
What make* people All one thea
ter night after night for 443 nights
for one play and stay away from
another theater with another play,
as though it were a plague spot?
One play it doubtless as widely
advertised other and the
casts of both are probably equal in
ability. And yet the crowd goes
to one and stays away from the
other.
Of course the answer is plain.
One is good, the other is not. The
play which is to be on the
Chsutauqua program is one of the
few good ones, the few which have
had exceptionally long runs in
New York and Chicago, this prov
ing without a doubt that "they
have the goods."
"Turn to the Right." ran 443
ntfhtw tit New York.-and SWnfghta
in Chicago. It is called "the com
edy that will live forever." It has
the heart interest of the ever-com
pelling story of mother-love. It is
clean. People who are familiar
with the Chautauqua type of play
agree that this is a fine example
of the type.
A special single admission price
of SI.OO is announced for the at
traction, but season ticket-holders
will escape this extra tax. This
looks like an opportunity for lovers
of drama, especially comedy-drama.

POST OFFICE HELPING L focal News tind
IN THRIFT PROGRAM!
Postmaster Jesse T. Price of the
Williamston post office is cooperating
in a nation-wife campaign of the gov
ern aent to protect the American peo
ple against fake and unwise invest
ments and to bring hidden surplus
funds into circulation.
The Government is warning people
against financial transactions with
stragers and advising them to put
their money in good securities, piss*
their funds in banks, or invest hi
Treasury Savings Certflcates at the
Post Office. It a diffleut to conivct the
swindlers who obtain money from un
suspecting people in this manner until
sjmo of the fbderal laws have been
broken.
Department officials say they are
amazed that people wil pans by a bank
or the post office which offer protec
tion of funds and aofe investment to
hand their money over to some smooth
taking swindler about whom they
know nothing. Postmasters have beon
called upon by the Department to use
their influence in every way possible
t> prevent the loss of millions of dol
lars each year trhough unscrupuous
promoters and swindlers.
Mr. Price says: "1 am sending let
ters to the patrons of this office, even
to those of limied means culsing their
atcntion to on investment guaranteed
bot.\ as to principal and inteie.ft by
the United States Government ami
wh'ch wil increase 26 per cent in five
yea.s. Through this post office it is
pojfiibte to purchase a s2i> Treasury
Savings CertiAcote siiO, a SIOO
certificate for SBO.OO and a SI,OOO cer
tileato for SBOO.OO, representing an
investment yielding, at purchase price
4 12 per cent interest, compounder
semi-annually. If the purchaser wish
es to cash his certificate before the
end of five years, he can get his mon
ey l »ock with interost figured at a
bout 3 1-2 per cent, compounded semi
annually. 1 am hoping the people of
this community will take advantage
of this ocer or put their money into
a bank as a prortectiou against pos
sible loss."

PARTY LINES TO
GOVERN PRIMARY
Voters presenting themselves at the
polls June 3rd must declare themsel
ves either Republican or Democrat in
their affiliations and vote accordingly,
according to a ruling made public yes
terday by the State Board of Elec
tions. No participation by the mem
bers of one party will be tolerated it
selecting the candidates of the other.
Two primaries are held in the stat
on that day, the order of the board
declares, a Democratic primary and a
Republican primary. The voter is free
to change his party affiliation but
when he changes, he must stick t
The voter cannot vote for a particulai
candidate in a party of which he i.-
not a member.
Republican particpation in the pri
mary will be nominal, except in th«
27th Senatorial and Tenth Cong re.'
•ional districts. In only these two
instances are there contests witliu
the party. Elsewhere n the state,
with thu exception of some county of
lcea of which no record is made here,
the Republican* will stay ou f . of the
primary, because it it a Democratic
primary.
The ruling of the board follows:
"There are two primaries held on
June 3, 1922. One a "Democratic" and
one a 'Republican." The Democrats
vote in one, the Repubican in the
other. No Repubican haa any busi
ness in Una Democratic primary; like
wise, no Democra. has a right to par
ticipate in the Repubican primary.
"Sec'ion 6,031 of. the Consolidated
Statute:-, being same section of the
Election law, is very full and minute
upon the voter's rights. 1 request all
interested in the question to read this
section.
It is mandatory that when a votei
offers himself to vote in a primary he
shal declare the political party wil).
which he affiliates and in whose pri
mary ne desires to v >te. If a voter,
theretofore Republican, declares that
he affiliates with the Democratic pa
ty, and he desires to v ite in the Di
ocratic primary, he has u right to
so; but he cannot vto for a particular
candidate in fiat l'rimary, snd hold
on to his Republican affiliation. O.
course, tho same z-ule would apply ii
a Democrat desire dto chairge his pui
ty affiliations.
"A voter changing his party affili
ation pledges himself to vota. in th»>

by thu Primary Election officers,
of both political parties, to see that

SHERIFF CAPTURES
ANOTHER BIG STILL
Sheriff Roberson, Policeman C.
J lunos of Robersonville and three dep
uties took a stroll out in the neigh
borhood northwest of Parmele. They
followed a path through the woods
for some distance and found a bag
of sugar, following the some trail for
a short way thoy came upon a mule
and cart, two bags of meal and sev
eral empty jugs. The mule had been
there all night from all indications.
The party then secreted themselves
and waited until sunrise. No one com
ing, they continued the trail and
found at the end of two or three hun
dred yards a real "King" of plants.
It consisted of two 160 gallon steam
stills, about 2,000 gallons of beer, a
bay of meal, two bags of sugar and
a good supply of tools and in the
bushes nearby was 60 gallons of corn
whiskey.
The officers then stepped aside for
a tittle while and in about twenty
minutes a negro named Bill Manning
from Pitt county come to the still,
pulled otT his coat and went to work
After viewing things for a while tliey
arrested him and waited again for
others to come to work. But shortly
after a gun report was heard from
the same direction where the sheriff
had left his car, this being a signal
from some friend to put the opera
tors on their guard.
All the liquor, both stills, beer and
equipment were destroyed except the
mule and cart, the sugar and meal,
which were taken into custody.
All evidence .indicates that all of
the operators of this plant were Pitt
c'ouny people of the Bethel district.

AN APPRECIATION *
-fllu*
l.uitur of the EnterpriM,
l deaine to express my aiaoere
thanks to tha gentlemon who sug
gested my name as a posaibla candi
date for tha offioe of county commis
sioner aa well as my appreciation for
tha confidence rapoaad in ma by tha
commendable terma uaed in offering
my nama to tha public.
1 wiah to say further believ
ing the office should Mek tha """»
rather than the aspirant seek tha of
lice, 1 am not asking for nomlnatioa
for two very impotrunt reasons.
First, that 1 have too many of mgr
own atfaira to attend to to returns tha
rcsponaibiliy of Couny government.
Second, that as Jamaavllle and Wil
liams township are pairad politically
and as Williams has had vary afflo
ient service through iti praaoat irwum
bent, 1 feel that tha next abaction
h.soulJ be from across the border line,
vi*. Jamesville township.
However, should g.eater numbere
of voters of tha two townshipa favor
my nomination over other candidate*
1 could not feel responsive to the wiah
es of my constituent! if 1 rejected
this favor nor could 1 feel that 1 had
carried out the will of the people
haould 1 refuse to serve them if elect
ed. And I would a tun. re the elector*
that 1 would appreciate any confidence
thot they may rest with me and do
my utmost to show myself worthy of
such trust.
Respectfully yours,
8. £. 11 ARDL9ON,
Wiliams Townahip.
