Correspondence of The Robesonian. I plowed one day last week and as I never plowed any to say before I made some rows that would do to call crooked. I broke two plow points, a wing and a clivis iron, and beat that old slow mule more than a little. But I believe a plow boy sees more pleasure than any other class of boys in America. For he can walk along between the handles and study about his best I mean how stumpy the land is and how our forefathers toiled splitting rails, making boards and other things that were made by muscle power when the trees were cut. I was talking to an old veteran the other day. He said wnen he was a boy he got what money he called his own splitting rails and grubbing at night. Not so today, by a jug full! But I expect it would be better for the boys now, like our fathers, to split rails at night than to go to balls, dances, and many other things that we do go to. Mr. Berry Simmons, of Mari etta, spenf Sunday here with Mr. W. M. Britt. Mr. Bart Britt went to Lum berton today on business. Miss Mary Britt, of Orrum, is visiting friends here this week. It is very cold today and I fear the peach crop is ruined again. Mr. Rossie Britt went to Lum- berton Saturday, returning Sun day afternoon. I visited my grandfather at Lumberton Saturday and Sun day, and while at Lumberton I took a stroll through the court house, and had I been alone I expect I would have gotten lost in it. It is something for every man in the county to be proud of and not only men, but women also.

Senators Simmons and Over man Given Places on Impor tant Congressional Committees. Washington Cor. Charlotte Observer. Both Senators Overman and Simmons were fortunate in the new committee assignments in the Senate. The former is placed on the conservation of national resources committee, which is a new one, and will prove important. Senator Sim mons has been assigned to the finance committee to fill the place made vacant by the re tirement of Senator Teller on March 4th. The matters refer red to this committee are those coming under the head of reve nue and taxation, finance, cur rency and banking. It is ex pected that his committee will begin at once a consideration of the new tariff bill. Senator Al drich is chairman. The Demo crats, besides Mr. Simmons, who will serve on it, are Messrs. Daniel, Bailey, Money and Talia ferro. It is said that this is the biggest committee on which the late Senator Vance served and it is conceded to be the most im portant in the Senate. Besides serving on the finance committee, Senator Simmons, will be on the Democratic steer ing committee, the committee on the disposition of public docu ments, of which he is chairman, and the commerce committee, the latter having charge of all matters pertaining to rivers and harbors and being, it is said, the highest on which Senator M. W. Ransom did service. By virtue of his chairmanship of the com mittee on disposition of public documents, the Senator will have in addition to his offices in the new Senate building, rooms in the Capitol which were occupied by the late Senator Morgan dur ing his service on the committee on inter-oceanic canals. The work of Senator Simmons during the next few months will be on the finance committee and the national waterways com mission. After examining"the typical rivers and waterways in this country, immediately after adjournment, the committee will doubtless spend the remainder of its vacation in Europe. Sen ator Simmons is endeavoring to arrange for one of the sub-com- mitteess of this commission to visit Wilmington and go through the sounds of North Carolina some time in April. CONGRESSMAN GODWIN'S WORK. NvyitTH ROBESON BARBA- CUE. WHOLE NO. 2445 PROFESSIONAL CARDS RED MEN VANISHING. Tuberculosis Making Great In roads on the Indian Race, Which is Rapidly Becoming Extinct Washington Dissatch, 21st. As the buffalo vanishes from the great Western plains, so is the red man gradually disappear ing through the ravages of tuberculosis. To save the Indian race from extinction by this dread disease and yet lead it into the ways ot the white man, is the great task which officials of the bureau of Indian affairs has undertaken. There will be a concerted effort on the part of all connected with the Indian service for the remov al of the causes of tuberculosis, for education in the measure of prevention and for systematizing the care and segregation of patients afflicted with this disease. About a quarter of a century ago when the white man under took to civilize the Indian, tuber culosis was an almost unknown disease among that race. Gradual ly the disease made its appear ance until to-day the Indians are dying off at the rate of approxi mately a thousand per annum. None seem to be so susceptible to the onslaughts of tuberculosis as the Sioux Indians in South Dakota. Only last year nearly one thousand members of this tribe were afflicted with the dis ease. Tennessee Has Done Better Than New York". Philadelphia Ledger. The best thing that has hap pened for the South and for the United States in many a long day is the conviction of Duncan J. Cooper, of murder in the second degree, for the killing of ex Senator Edward W. Carmack, of Tennessee. A Northern news paper some time since, comment ing on this trial, said that it was a "mighty rare occurrence for a white man to be punished for murder in the South." The criti cism was true, with a suggestion of the false, in that it was ap plied only to the South. It is a "rare thing"for a white man oc cupying the same relative posi tion as the Coopers to be hanged or fittingly punished for murder in the North. A common garroter or thug or a burglar is likely to be hanged for murder anywhere in the United States, but the criminal administration and pub lic opinion are both so lax and inefficient that if passion or poli tics enters into the case, or if immense wealth be at command, the jury trial, as in the Thaw case, is usually turned into a farce. The courtroom becomes a ghastly spectacle for a travesty upon justice, the experts and neurologists make a mock of the State, the jury becomes hopeless ly befogged and the culprit es capes. Tennessee is to be congratulat ed. It has done better than New York. It has won a triumph un der circumstances calculated to balk justice in any jurisdiction. Its ignorant jury, chosen under ridiculous limitations imposed by the State law, has given a judg ment with a much truer sense of justice and reason than if they had been a collection of amateur psychologists. The condition exhibited in statistical form is appalling. Life is cheaper in the United States than in any alleged, civilized country, with the exception of certain parts of lower Italy, noted tor their criminals, and one or two places in Spain. If the num ber ot murders and homicides in the United States be considered in comparison with the record of England it will be perceived that we are in the Middle Ages. When there is a miscarriage of justice in San Domingo or Haiti we dis miss it v:ith a sneer, but there is no civilized country in which life is so cheap as it is in the great republic. The result of the Car- mack trial is both amazing and just, and, it is to be hoped, will have a salutary effect upon the South and the country. News Items and Personals from Important Matters Affecting the Sixth District. In Monday's Robesonian was a news item in regard to a star route from Buies' Creek to Lil lington, an order for which Con gressman H. L. Godwin has secured from the Second Assist ant Postmaster General. Re presentative Godwin has also secured un order from the Coast and Geodetic Survey of the De partment of Commerce and La bor providing for the testing of the meridian line at Fayetteville. The testing line will be establish ed by the erection of two stones at the north and south end of the meridian line. The Department has promised to send a magnetic observer to Fayetteville, who is now on field work in Tennessee, to establish and test the meridian line. Mr. Godwin is also making arrangements with the Geologi cal Survey to establish a perma nent bench mark at Fayetteville to determine the height above the sea level at that place. Another very important matter affecting the sixth district is the recent success Mr. Godwin has achieved in securing the promise Advocates of North RnK..nn Organizing-Mr. Karl Jansen to be at Antioch Other Items.

D., March 22, 1909. August the water escaped from the banks of the Cape Fear river and completely overflowed a large area of fertile land in Bladen and Pender counties, completely destroying crops and rendering many citizens destitute, and quite a number homeless. Mr. Godwin immediately made an ef fort before the War Depart ment for funds to be used in constructing levees along the river at that point, but was informed that no funds were available at that time. He then introduced a bill in Con gress providing for an approria- tion of 5100,000 for the con struction of these levees; the bill went to the Rivers and Harbors Committeef where it now re mains because that committee did not report any bill during last session except the bill for surveys. He did not cease in his efforts for that section of his district, and finally succeeded in getting a promise from the As ricultural Department to send an expert engineer to that point in in his district to make a full and complete examination with a view to building the levees and draining the swamp lands in that section. Mr. Godwin is deeply gratified at the results of his efforts, and no doubt the news of his success will be re ceived with a great deal of in terest n. v. Cook.
