THE NEWS-HERALD. MORGANTON, N. C. AUGUST 11TH 1921. The News-Herald. MORGANTON, N. C. Published Every Thursday UISS BEATRICE COBB, Editor and Owner. SUPERIOR COURT IS NOW IN SESSION (Continued from first page) Entered at the postoffice at Morgan Son, N. C, as serond-class mail mutter ' TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION: One Year.". 1 $2.00 Six Months .1.00 Three Months..'... .50 CASH IN ADVANCE WHY THEY LEAVE THE FARM (Selected.) Why did you leave the farm my lad? Why did you bolt and leave your dad ? Why tlid you beat it off to town?. And turn your poor old father down? Thinkers of platform, pulpit, press, Are wallowing in deed distress. They seek to know the hidden cause Why farmer lads desert their pa's. Well, stranger, since you've been so f IlXllt I'll roll aside this hazy blank. I left my dad, his horse,; his plow, Becasue my calf became his cow. I dropped the hoe and stuck the fork, Because my pig became his pork, I left my dad, 'twas wrong, of course, Because my colt became his horse. The garden truck that I made grow, Was his to sell but mine to hoe, It's not the smoke in the atmosphere, Nor the taste for the life that brought me here. Just tell the platform, pulpit, press, No fear of toil or love of dress, Is driving off the farmer lads It's just the methods of their dads. It is a sad commentary on the morals of the county that there were fifty prisoners in Burke county jail last night. Of this number probably forty could attribute their unhappy state to blockade liquor. Such a con dition is not peculiar to Burke county alone. All over North Carolina, in almost every other county, similar conditions exist. Judge Bryson was right in comparing the liquor menace to a great pestilence that will require heroic effort to stamp out. Our courts would have little to do, our jails relieved and our asylums be less crowded if -this evil could be con quered. , ' (Compared with the Eastern part of cthe State, the cotton and tobaccd belts, this section is very fortunate. We have never felt the depression which has been experienced there and while our farming class did not reach the phenomenal prosperity which the cotton and tobacco farmers enjoyed until a year ago the swing back has not been so far. A fine season this year has also been our good fortune. Dug Mitchell; assault with deadly weapon; plead guilty; not yet sentenced!

LITTLE, HE TELLS PAPERS Unless Imperial Wizard Back Tracks Major Craven Blay Expose Everything. COMING ! Judge Bryson moves the business of the court with dispatch that is commendable. This is his first court here but he has already shown that he is a judge worthy' of the name. Those who merit punishment - may well stand in fear of his judgments. Members of the bar and citizens gen erally have very high respect for Judge Bryson's rulings. The surprising thing about the statement made by Mr. Bruce Craven regarding the Ku Klux Klan is not so much the statement itself as the fact that it reveals that Mr. Craven was identified with the organization at all. Those who know Mr. Craven well wonder that he' "fell" for the Klan propaganda.. The Made-in-Carolinas Exposition that Charlotte is planning for Sep tember is a splendid idea and should prove a great boost for the manufac turing interests of the State. THE ORTHOPEDIC HOSPITAL Charity and Children. There are 25 patients in the new hospital at Gastonia being treated. They are all children. They have crooked limbs, bent spinal columns, twisted little bodies that may be straightened and all sorts of demorm lties and malformations that may be icmcuieu. Ana- tney are poor chil dren. Their Barents Jiavo nn to send them to specialists. Without cms ancy oi neip and healing they would have to limn ttimn u-f many of them suffering excruciating mh. .liuu mere tney are in clean ucus, wun wnoiesome food, tender nurses and canahlp how this work that North . Carolina was so reluctant to do for its uffser mg little ones', has in it much of the mind of the Master who found so mUnh Aoy ,in making the" lame to walk, the deaf to hear, the blind to see and even the dead to rise from their dusty beds. Why did we tarry so long in our ministry to these chil dren of misfortune? For years and years Mr. R. B. Babington, who caught a vision of a great hospital for crippled children, labored in vain for sympathy and support. But he never for once lost faith in the final result and at last the great State heard his cry and to a limited degree satisfied the desire of his heart. The worst is over now. No legislature hereafter will dare turn a deaf ear Jhexan of these poor babies who fffr through no fault of their own And from year to. year the hospital' will be enlarged, and no pitiful inva lid will knock at the door in vain Tt is hoped that by the end of the year SUBSCRIPTIONS J.

The following dispatch was sent from Ridgecrest to the Greensboro News: ' . Mai. Bruce Craven, who returned nere yesterday irom a walking trip to Mount Mitchell, received in his mail today the first note of discord in the innumerable batch of letters and telegrams . and telephone calls that have come to him in connection with his repudiation of the Ku Klux Klan last Friday in the Greensboro News. This was an anonymous letter mail ed on the train between Charlotte and Savannah and. signed with characters known only, to the members of the 6rder and., which states that "they all know Craven was paid by the Knights of Columbus to ruin their order." He had a hearty laugh at it and said that it is entirely consistent with their at titude, in which the dollar instead of character is the onlv test. All the other communications he has received have been hearty congratulations. They are all held in confidence he- cause many are from officials in. the order as well as from people promi nent in this and other States. A score of them came from his own home or ganization in High Point. In response to reneated renuests from a dozen papers for a renlv to the imperial wizard's statement that he had never had any official connec tion with this order and the one of the organizer in Raleieh that he had never had any credentials of any kind Major Craven tonight issued the fol lowing statement: "I have in my possession now all the paraphernalia, the official oaths, records, rituals and other documents, none of which are ever under any cir cumstances allowed in the hands of others than certain stated officials even so much as temporarily. I have never held any kind of position of of fice in the order, local, tentative or temporary, except that of grand dra gon. I . have never been an organizer or a deputy or an assistant. Among these documents is a commission sign ed by the little organizer at Raleigh, who says I have never had any cre dentials of any kind. . "I now put it squarely up to the im perial wizard himself to either deny that he ever had anything to do with the statement given out in his name or in case he stands for the statement that I never had any official connec tion, to authorize me to go ahead and use everything in my possession to prove my case.
