"TOO MUCH POLITICS."
Under the above caption The
Charlotte Observer copies, with
appropriate comment, the follow
ing from the editorial columns of
The Manufacturers' Record:
"Some years ago the writer
was in one of the busy, hustling
towns of Alabama, a town in
which everybody was at work,
a town which at that time was
growing as few towns in the
South had ever grown. During
his stay of some days not a
word was heard of politics, not
a line concerning political affairs
was seen in the local papers.
Commenting on this striking
fact to a citizen of the place,
there came in reply to the in
quiry as to this condition the
statement: 'The people of this
town are too busy to talk politics.'
What a blessed thing if such a
condition could exist throughout
the Southl The people of that
town were not only busy in
building furnaces and machine
shops, cotton mills and other
industries, but they were busy in
building schools and churches,
and during that period of pros
perity that town probably built
more fine churches in proportion
to population than any other
town or city in the United States;
in the construction of water
works and an elecric-light plant,
good stores, splendid homes and
in every other line of work which
meant human advancement.
But they were 'too busy to talk
politics. ' May heaven grant that
the time shall soon come
when that spirit will be found in
every village, in every town and
city, and on every farm through
out the South!"
"Too much politics." "There
has been too much political un
rest and agitation in North Car
olina and it's time to call a
halt," says The Observer, in
commenting on the above. Nar
rowing to local .conditions that,
in our humble opinion, is just
what the matter is with Lumber
ton and Robeson county. It is
known of all men that politicians
are thicker in the eastern part
of the State than "leaves in Val
lambrosa," and nowhere else in
the east are they thicker than in
this county. At times it would
seem to a looker on in Vienna
that politics is the entire walk
and conversation of the entire
population. Would it not be
well to get down to other knit
ting once in a while and relegate
politics to the rear?
IN THE MATTER OF PRI
MARIES-
In last Monday's Robesonian a
communication was published
from Mr. F. P. Humphrey, of
Saddle Tree, in regard to the
primary law for this county. Mr.
Humphrey says that many of
the people of the county do not
understand the law as it applies
to this county, some holding that
it is a matter for the county ex
cutive committee to decide,
others thinking that the primary
is provided for by law and that
it rests with the executive com
mittee only to fix the time and
manner of holding. So far as
we have been able to ascertain
the law does not say that pri
maries shall be held for nominat
ing candidates for the General
Assembly and the various county
offices, but the last Democratic
county convention, which was
held on September 6th. 190fi
passed a resolution instructing
representatives in the Legis
lature to give the count v th
legalized primary, so we do not
see how the executive committer
can do other than provide for
the primary. We are frank to
say that we are not in favor of
primaries, but we agree with
Mr. Ilnmphrey that since the
last county convention declared
for this method of nominating
candidates we do not see how
the executive committee can go
contrary to the sense of that
convention. We do not konw
what any member of the execu
tive committee thinks in regard
to this and this is merely written
in response to Mr. Humphrey's
inquiry. We presume the pri
maries will be called in due
time.
PROBABLY THE TRUTH.
The following from Fairbroth
er's Everything, probably comes
about as near giving the true
reasons why W. W. Kitchin won
over the other candidates for
Governor as they could be given:
"Therefore all who opposed
Simmons supported Kitchin re
gardless of the things Kitchin
stands for. For instance, dozens
of saloon-keepers and ex-saloon
keeprs, scores of whiskey men
and hundreds of men who are
opposed to prohibition were after
Simmons and supportingKitchin,
not that they loved Kitchin by
any means, but because Sim
mons was the man who is accus
ed of getting the Watts law on
the books. There was no chance
to overcome this feeling against
Simmons. The decree had gone
forth that while the whiskey
men or anti-prohibitionists knew
they could expert nothing in the
world from Kitchin, they did
know that Simmons had done
the mischief to them and they
proposed to punish him. The
Watts law and the impression
that Simmons was the father of
it gave Kitchin the lead in the
convention and this is no joke."
Lumber river hereabouts bears
an unsavory reputation for being
dangerous and has time out of
mind been known as "drowning
creek." We doubt if it is more
dangerous than other streams,
but whether it is or not, many
people would feel much safer if a
bathing place were prepared
where one could go in swimming
with greater assurance of safety
than is possible now. What is the
matter with having bath houses
at some suitable place and rop
ing off a bathing place where
both sexes might bath at their
pleasure? While some might shy
at the idea at first of course there
would be nothing more improper
in that than going in bathing to
gether at the beach, and such a
bathing place would afford inex
pensive means for the pursuit of
pleasure and health. It is rather
surprising that Lumberton peo
ple in general do not take more
advantage than they do of the
easy means of diversion afforded
by a river running through the
edge of town.
There has been quite an exo
dus of negroes from Lumberton
recently, all on account of the
"old familiar juice" the unlaw
ful sale of the same. During the
recent term of criminal court it
was whispered about that certain
brothers in black would be indict
ed for retailing and it is estimat
ed that some fifteen negroes de
parted these coasts at once, stand
ing not upon the order of their
going. They vamosed and the
places that formerly knew them
know them no more. Just how
or when they went, or whither,
is not known: it is simply known
that they faded out of this imme
diate landscape. It is common
belief and report in this neck of
the woods that if one is hauled
up in court heie for retailing it is
likely to result in hard lines for
him.
The time for nominating ran.
didates for the General Assem
bly and county offices is yet afar
off, but already manv communi
cations have been sent to The
Robesonian for publication favor
ing certain candidates. The Rob
esonian wants to be fair to all
and is willing to publish articles
of reasonable length from any of
its patrons, and since any rules
it may make with regard to
communications of thisjrind will
apply absolutely to all there can
be no just cause for complaint.
It is entirely possible to present
the claims of any candidate or
candidates within a short spac.
Cut your articles down, gentle
men, and don't let your zeal, .for
your candidate carry you ' over
half a column, at the outside.
The Democratic plan of pub
licity for campaign contributions
provides that all amounts above
$100 shall be published with-the
names of the contributors' and
that no contribution shall exceed
$10,000. If you had madeS? up
your mind to give something
over $10,000 there is no use get
ting hot under your collar';. and
saying bad words about it, for
the word has gone forth - that
that is the limit and you needn't
send in any more than that.
Mr. Bryan has issued a call for
contributions to the farmers
of the country. The first con
tribution made to the Democrat

A GREAT INVENTION.
Wilmington Man Perfects Pro
cess That May Revolutionize
Cotton Planting in the South.
Wilminton Star, lith.
Mr. William E. Worlh, general
manager of the Universal Oil &
Fertilizer Company of this city,
after more than two years of
experimenting, has perfected a
machine that bids fair to rev
olutionize the cotton planting
industry in the South. While
Mr. Worth is modest in the claims
for his invention, it can be seen
at a glance that the process
originated by him will not only
result in a great labor saving in
the earlier cultivation of the1
crop but will add materially to j
the yield and quality oi' the!
great staple which is the financial j
backbone of this section of the !
country. j
The machine invented by Mr. !
Worth is one for perfectly do- j
nntina: tne cotton seed, nvinp
bare the mature and immature
kernels, and then separating
these in such a manner as to en
suretheplantingof only those that
are most perfectly developed and
capable of producing the most
perfect plant. A sample of the
seed thus turned out by Mr.
Worth's machine, patents fori
which have been armlieri. form
a most interesting and con vine-1
mg argument as to the merits ot
the invention. The seed arc ;
polished like a bean, carrying:
not the slightest vestige of lint, j
but at the same time preserving j
intact, me germinating portion
of the kernel. It is Mr. Worth's
idea to bring these seed to the
attention of the cotton interests
of the country to the end that
the cultivation of the staple
may be made more simple,
the production greater and
the results more profitable
to the farmer, as he is convinc
ed that no farmer can tell when
he chODS OUt his fntton whether
he is leaving the vigorous plant
or tne poorest one in the stand.
ExDerience. he savs. shows that
abont thirty-five yer cent of the
ordinary seed planted by tne
grower are immature, yet a
large proportion of them will
come up, while by his method
only the best and most rv-.--
fectly matured seed, will be
used, ot whatever variety de
sired, and in nlantino-nnlu f'n.i
X" -" -
best the farmer will naturally
get the best results. A number
of growers have experimented
With the Seerl this vpar i)nrl nil
he experiments have been high
ly successful. These seed may
be successfully planted with an
oruinary corn or Dean dropper
and a Derfect. stanrl nhtm'norl Qt
the one planting by dropping
two to tnree m a mil. The cost
ly and tedious work of choDning-
out is eliminated. In other
words, if desired, the cotton may
be Dlant.ed anrl pnHivnrorl ir
checkered rows just as corn is
sometimes cultivated in this man
ner. Practically the same methods
obtain now in the cultivation of
the cotton crop as were used 50
years ago. In many States by
the proper selection of seed, the
production of corn has hppn in
creased from 15 to 20 per cent.
and Mr. worth believes that
there is no sane reason why the
same should not be true of cot
ton and his process is predicated
upon that assumption. The yield
of beans and cereals has like
wise been increased. But the
selection of the best cotton
seed has been impossible be
cause the kernels as planted are
covered with lint as they come
from the ordinary gin and selec
tion is impossible. The machine
which Mr, Worth will put on the
market another year will thor
oughly delint the cotton in the
first place; then the seed will be
manipulated through a series of
screens and fans in such a man
ner as tc remove all the imma
ture kernels and leave for
the grower the planting of
those only which will mature
perfectly. It would seem that
with the adoption of his
plan of planting, there will be
no further excuse for poor stands
and that the plants that do come
up will have at germination that
healthy growth which will insure
the largest productive yield.
The chopping out and hoeing of
the cotton will be no longer re
quired if the land is perfectly
prepared so that cultivation with
the plow is possible. The ma
chine of Mr. Worth cleans the
cotton seed perfectly without the
use of any chemicals whatever
and the hulls from such seed, if
they are used for crushing pur
poses, will in time prove a valua
ble feedstuff for animals that
cannot now feed upon the ordina
ry seed because of the lint.
After passing through the ma
chine described, the plants come
up perfectly from within five to
six days whereas by the old pro
cess of wetting and rolling in
ash.3s or clay the germination pe
riod is much longer and not near
ly under so favorable conditions.
When planted by a machine, two
to three to a hill. 18 inches apa-t
one bushel will plant ten acrs
The young plants being few in a
hill soon become strong and rot
being disturbed, at once begin to
grow vigorously.
Mr. Worth contemplates plac
ing these machines with the oil
mills of the country where the
farmers in the immediate tern
ary may be supplied with the
dennted and separated seed in
any variety at a nominal cost.

Wonderful How Men Become
Crazed at Political Conven
tions. Chatham KecorU.
It is wonderful how crazed
with enthusiasm men will become
at political conventions. All who
attended our recent State conver
tion at Charlotte will bear wit
ness to this, and yet as wild and
unrestrained as was the enthusi
asm on that occasion it was not to
be compared to the enthusiasm !
at the national convention last:
week at Denver. !
At the Republican national con
vention, held last month at Chi
cago, there was intense enthusi
asm and at one time the cheers
and applause lasted for three
quarters of an hour continuous
ly. This continued applause was
unprecedented in any previous
convention ana Droke all records,
but the Democratic convention
at Denver surpassed this, for
at one time the applause there
continued without interruption
for one hour and twenty-seven
minutes.
Such a scene in almost inde
scribable and seems incredible.
The idea of thousands of grown
men, many of them of national
reputation, yelling and shouting
as loud as they could and parad
ing up and down the aisles,
waiving their hats and handker
chiefs, and acting lika sj many
crazy men, for rui-ly an hour and
a half!
