V- •* <«C4a* e»»r to Iter. bvIlWIM The disposition to commit dastardly acts under the cover of ecask* or darkness appears to be developing in North Car olina. In our opinion, credit for this la due the Ku Klux Klan. We would not charge that all these crimes an perpetrated by members of that organisa tion. bat wo hold to the belief that noa-members who commit the crimes get their ideas from the meaner in which the Klan goes about Its business. During the past woek vand als have been unusually active. A Guilford county fanner had succeeded In growing a fine field of tobacco, oae that pro mised a fair rstarn for Ids la bor and efforts. While ho was asleep at night his field was visited bv “nhrht _ w.llr.r. •> who destroyed en eere and a half of his crop. This is believ ed to have been a case of ven geance wrought by bootleg Z*n. Black as tkis crime is, a worse one eras committed early k Sunday morning in Johnston \ county. A consolidated school 1 building, which was being I rushed to completion for oeeu / nancy at the opening of the f school ten.i, was blown up with dynamite. While it is re ported that such threats had been unde by some who were (iissstlsOed with the location of the new building, no one would have imagined that an element so low was harbored in that fine county. The class of folks who defy tke law and engage in the man ufacture and sale of bootleg whiskey might bo expected to do the unexpected to get re venge; but when we have citi zen f. who would wreck a school Uoutc because of persona) dif '.ercicec, wo have indeed1 : sac bed a bad stale of affairs.

The success; v/Hh which they are meeting i should encourage many other farmers to (,ror. a tobacco crop; i.ext wear. Our observation, even before ths arrival of tho Loll weevil, has been that the fanner who plaatfd both cot ton and tobacco was mors in dependent financially than the sU-cotton farmer. The fact that Dunn raised a total of kl.4M.lt. or $74t.l3 r. sea than Us quota of $720.00. for ths Near Rad relief this year speaks well for Its citizen ship. As Goo. H. Bellamy.

It was es timated by officials of the United States Lines that the Leviathan had beaten the Olympic in by at least 12 hours, as the reports indicated the llritish liner was not likely to reach Cherbourg until around 6 o'clock last evening. Officials calculated the Levia than's btoe 5 days, 13 hours and 45 minute*. This it faster than the first trip made after her rc-condi ttoning, which occupied five days, 17 hount, but is slower than her sec ond trip, which was made in five days, 11 1-2 hours. The officials said it was not surprising that the Leviathan should beat the Olympic, as the American steamer hat an av erage of 25 knots against the Olym pic s 23.
