The way mail gets to Allenton nnRpllamv. situated five and spvpn miles, respectively, from T,iimberton-or rather, the way mail does not reach those places within a reasonable , time is something curious. Allenton is on the Seaboard, five miles east of Lumberton, and Bellamy is just two miles further east, but if you put mail for either of these places on the train that passes Lumberton at ten o'clock at night it is carried some '200 miles before it is put off at its destina tion. The Robesonian is mailed from Lumberton Monday and Thursday afternoons and it is carried to Wilmington at night, brought back through 'Lumber and carried on to Laurinburg tlx? next morning and then it goes down on the morning train and is finally put ofi" at Allenton and Bellamy. It is a situation that ought to be remedied. i 1 ... Th'.- hVi Ionian. 1 Return cf a RcT.r.wned Astrolo ger His Oracular Wisdom.

My attention being called to printed statements in The Robe sonian. of June 29th (signed D. P.

When a man cries "thief" and points to the other tellow, I am incredulous and demand better evidence than his word to satisfy me. When a Democrat tries to discredit officers who have by long years of faithful service time and again received the approval of the people of Robeson county, 1 put on my thinking cap and try to conclude what mav be the motive. f If the accuser is so anxious to reap the harvest which others have made bountiful by hard work and nerve exhaustion that he would disre gard the golden rule, then be is not a safe man to clothe with au thority. A little power would make him a tyrant.

Caldwell, of Lum berton, has said of the present board of county commissioners: "I am of the opinion that no county in the State of North Car olina has a better or more capable board of commissioners than Rob eson county has at this time. ! Each member- of the board is a man of strictly moral, upright character, good judgment and discretion, ability and capacity fo manage financial affairs success fully." They should by all means be re-elected and the county con sults its own interest in so doing.

He has faithfully performed every duty, paid over every dollar due the county and State, save for 1906, for which he holds receipts.

One member of this was a Mr. Barnes, a very exem plary man. My recollection is he was James P. Barnes and that he lived near Barnesville. I may have these names, some of them, wrong, but at any rate he lived in the vicinity of Henry Berry's home and I think they were good friends. Henry Ber ry applied to this board for ex emption and expected to be fa vored by reason of hi3 relations j with Mr. Barnes. He failed and, it seems, put the whole blame on his neighborand friend, Mr. Barnes; and his Indian na ture, it seems asserted itself and he killed Mr. Barnes near his home waylaid and shot him as he was driving home from Lumberton. This, of course, caused him to be outlawed. He was shrewd and had" many friends, so he evaded the officers of the law and, as is frequently the case, one wrong step led to another. So he w7ent on till he gathered about him a band of desperate characters and many horrible crimes followed. I was then but a boy, but rather on the order of old boys; my principal chums and associ ates were older and more robust than I, sothey were mostly in the army when Mr. Barnes was killed; but it is probable at least that some of them remember about these things, and maybe can give a much better account of them than I. If so, do not publish this. However, if you think it worth the space as a historical incident, you are wel come to use it. My recollection is that these people the Croa tans were peaceable and gave no trouble when sober, but some of them would, sometimes im bibe too freely and were dispos ed to make ' 'rough house". So far as my memory serves me, however, Henry Berry Lowery, whose name became a terror in that country, was a good citizen and highly respected up to the time of the killing of Mr. Barnes I say this in justice to his fami ly.
