1 HE GLEANER lAlWWWt.'WVWWM'li'li'l.'WW'.l'rf'.i'^iVWW' ' GRAHAM. N. 0., SEPT. 18, 1930. j ISSUED KVEKY THUBHDAT. J. D. KERNODLE, Editor. $1.00 A YEAR, IN ADVANCE. Entered at tne Pon'ofMce at < am. N. C., an micuuu olasH matt' COUNTY AFFAIRS For several weeks past much has! been written about Alamance coun ty affairs. The purpose of it has been chiefly an arraignment of the Democratic administration in com parison with the present, Republi can, administration. In an attempt to audit the sher iff's office nearly two years ago, when the Republicans came upon the stage, Mr. J. D. Hightower was contracted with to do the job. This audit was launched the day following the induction of the pres ent board of commissioners into of-, flee. It was a proper move in order that the new administration might ? get its bearings. The wholly unnec essary part of this audit was its scope which covered four or five years, going back to 1923, for which years an audit had been made. Whether those audits were com plete and sufficient, or not, no blame therefor could attach to the new administration. But it was a proper step to "take stock" o^ what was being handed over. Mr. Hightower stated to the board that he was unable to com-! plete the audit on account of not being able to find certain old tax receipt stubs which had been au dited and discarded. It is not believed that this audit was started with a hope that any J considerable treasure could be un covered and recovered, but that it was purely a partisan move. That] it was partisan appears to be con firmed by the fact that Mr. High tower's statement was published with a flourish when he gave up the undertaking and printed again as political propaganda. In connection with this audit.1 the people should remember a statement made prior to the last election by the candidates now in office about handling the county affairs economically. This first gesture was anything but economical, as will app r from j the bills rendered for the proposed] service. Mr. Hightower's bill for himself and assistants, including traveling and meals, dated June 25, 1929,' amounts to $2,750.45.. But Mr. Hightower did not finish the task, which A. M. Pullen & Co., I were called upon to complete. Their bill "dated Dec. 31, 1929, as of Dec. 6, 1929, called for $4,185.24. Here ls| a total of $6,935.69 of Alamance county tax money spent for eco nomy's sake! ' ] The present county administra tion has not been heard to proclaim from the housetops anything about the cost of this audit. But when the J county election board ordered a! new registration of the voters of1 Burlington township, a great furor was raised about such gross waste and extravagance, which, had the number of voting precincts been in creased to t w e 1 v e as requested would have cost the county not ex ceeding $400, instead of more than $4,000.00, as the Republican econ omists tried to show. What is the difference between nearly $7,000,000, and less than $400.00? Maj Charles M. Stedman's condi tion has not Improved. He is criti cally ill at a hospital In Washing ton. His age is against every hope that he may recover. Last reports said he was critically ill. It is expected the big tobacco manufacturers and the buyers will at once advance prices. With the old Tri-State association out of the way, buyers bought at their own price and have reaped a golden harvest at the expense of the grow ers. The consumption has steadily grown. The low prices cannot be charged to overproduction. There has been no appreciable reduction jn prices paid by consumers. I Some 2,000 tobacco growers met in Raleigh Wednesday for the pur- j pose of doing something to help get | belter prices for the weed. They 1 voted solidly for the formation of a ' tobacco co-operative on marketing 1 i sociatlon. The prices have hii', iuinously low thus far this season.'. It is confidently predicted that b - i lei prices will be paid, even before the organization is fully establish-, ed. . Hon. Josiah W. Bailey, Democrat- ' ic candidate for the United States senate, spoke to a very large audi ence in Burlington Saturday night. The unbiased pronounce it a great speech. 1930 Crop Expected To He Largest Ever Raleigh, Sept. 14.?Discussing the condition by belts of the 1930 to bacco crop, predicted at 511,550,000 pounds, the largest in the history of the state, the crop reporting service of the state-federal departments of agriculture Saturday forecast the production of the respective belts as follows: Type 13, grown on the South Carolina border, 44,300,000 pounds as compared with 38,753,000 last year. Type 12, grown in the eastern or new bright leaf belt, 280,000,000 as compared with a 1929 total of 248, 000,000. Type 11, grown in the Piedmont or old tobacco belt, 183,000,000 pounds as compared with 206,000, 000 last year, the only belt to show a reduction, due to weather condi tions. Type 31, grown in the extreme western part of the state, 4,250.000 as compared with 4,100,000 pounds last year. While the North Carolina crop is expected to show a 2.8 per cent in crease over last years crop the to tal United States crop is only 93.5 per cent of last year's crop. Corn prospects in North Carolina declined about three per cent, a crop of 46,776,000 bushels being pre dicted for this year on Septemebr 1 condition , as compared with a crop of 48,568,000 bushels last year. Hay production, which is usually heavy in the mountain counties, is seriously affected the indicated production for the year being 627, 000 tons.

Heavener of Hyatts ville, Md., has recently published a , booklet entitled New River Settle ments that is of much interest to many in this part of he sate. He discusses the settlement of New River in Virginia by the pioneers and shows that some came fromj the Haw River section of North' Carolina where they had first lo- j cated in 1745, going there from. Pennslyvania, "crossing Maryland and Virginia in wagons." Among these were John and William H. Trollinger and sisters, and Jacob Smith. The Trollingers and John Philip Hevner settled at a point called Newbourn. These Trollingers were of the family of Adam Trol linger whose tombstone still stands at the Trollinger Memorial M. P. church on the west bank of Haw! River in the town of Haw River, N. C. On this stone we can read today: | "Born on the Rhine 1681; came to America 1737; and died 1776." He| landed at Philadelphia 1738, and together with a company came j down into North Carolina in 1745. We quote: "They were instrumental; in building; a union Lutheran and Reformed church, and located on a pike leading from Salisbury to Hillsboro, at Haw River." Henry Trollinger was a son of Jacob, he was a Revolutionary soldier, on the pension list of 1831, and died 1844. The sisters who went to Virginia were Mary, Barbara and Elizabeth Trollinger. Among the Virginia families who trace back to these early Trollin gers today are the Heavener, Mc-; Coy, Elliott, Durham, Hoge and Darst families.
