Fletcher and Frank Smith Brought to

. Fletcher and Frank Bmlth, members
of the Bnilthtowd gang of , blockadera,
whose arrest In North Dakota has been
noted, were brought to Greensboro last
week and lodged In Jail in default of

and Bherifl John J. Lee, of Mlnot,
N.D. ' V , ' "-v.- ;

when it waa ascertained that they were
in North Dakota, a capias, was issued
for them by Juige Boyd: The arrest
was made by Sheriff Lee, in whose
hauda the capias had been placed by
Marshal Bbea.
The prisoners are brothers of Jim
Smith, who is wanted by the govern
ment on the charge of the murder of
Revenue Ofllcer J. W. Hendrix.
The North Dakota officers spent f
day' in Greensboro most . pleasantly
foimlug, the acquaintance of : quite a
nnmlipr At lnrl neonlt The Greens
boro people who had the pleasure of
meeting them were very favorably im
pressed with the Westerners. Marshal
Bbea, who enjoys the distinction of,a
warm personal friendship with Presi
dent Roosevelt, is a very interesting
character. He is an old Indian fighter
and served for three or four years as a
scout 'under General Custer. When
President Roosevelt conducted a cattle
ranch in the West, Mr. Bbea was a
deputy sheriff, and the friendship of
the two men dates from that time.

and a most agreeable gentleman, Is a
personal friend of Mr. J. C. Anderson,
who came to Guilford county from the
Wet a few years ago "and bought a
truck farm west of the city. '

Fit Oft OLD FRIENDS.
Some Appreciated Expressions That come
From Patriot Subscribers Far
and near.
There is nothing the Patriot appre
ciates more than the friendship and
esteem of Its old subscribers, many of
whom have been reading the paper
regularly since before the birth of the
present publisher. Many of these
friends are scattered throughout the
length and breadth of the country, and
It Is gratifying to know that they de
rive much pleasure and profit from the
weekly visits of their favorite news
paper. The letters of appreciation
aud commendation that we receive
from these good people encourage us to
strive to make the Patriot even more
worthy of the good opinion in which it
is held by its clientele.
One of these letters was received the
other day from Mr. R. F. Osborne, of
Rippey, Iowa, whose father was av
native of Guilford, and who has many
relatives in this county. In remitting
for auother year's subscription,- Mr.
Osborne said: "I have taken the Pa
triot so long that it has become a fam
ily necessity, and its regular visits
would be greatly missed at our home."
A good lady friend, Mrs. Louisa J.
White, of Dubliu, Ind., sent us a
money order for a renewal of her sub
scription the other day and wrote: "It
seems as though we can't do without
the Patriot."
Expressions similar to the above are
contained in letters that reach this
office every week, and while we have
not the time to make the proper
acknowledgement in every Instance,
they are appreciated none the less.

THE PANIC IS OVER.
Confidence has been restored and the
panic is over. In fact, so far as we can
see, the only trouble that ever existed
was the want cfooondence. There-
cent trouble only goes to emphasize
How largely the busiuees of the country
in bullded oq confidence. When you
destroy confidence, how quickly busi
ness gQes to pieces. If you never be
tray confidence you will never lose it.
We go on this assumption in selling
goods: "If we sell nothing but good.
reliable goods, our customers will never
question our good intentions in this re
spect." The prosperity or mis country is
moie largely depeDdeut upou thefarin-
r thiu auy one eise and we feel that
our bUblue&B this y ear will be as , great
or greater than ever before, because a
great many of our best customers are
farmers and the. farmers or this section
are prosperous and able to buy all the
goods they want or need. Feeling this
way about it we are buying and open
ing up new goods every day and our
Hues tor spring will be in every depart
ment the largest and best we have ever
shown,, .
