The Farmer and the Merchant
The Farmer's Day Coming
-Trouble With a Cow Oth-
ma
er Matters.
Corresiionilimt-e of The Koircnnian.
The farmers are beginning to
sell some of their best tobacco
and are getting good prices for
it; and the merchant who
dreaded to see him coming
tnrough the spring ana summer!
with his molasses jug is glad to
see ''Jimmie" coming now, for he
expects something. As a rule the
merchants are just as polite in
the fall to the farmer as to the
not better, but richer, class; and
then in spring, when he knows
he is going to hear the command
"Charge it, "he is very sulky. I
want to see the time when the
farmer can have the money on
hand all the year to buy the
things necessary to have while
making a crop, for they have to
pay just about a third more when
they have to buy on time as when
they have the money. But after
all I believe the farmers see
more pleasure than any other
class of people living. The day
is soon coming when the farmer
will wear the high collars now
worn by the drummer or at I
least some like them and smoke
some of "them old twofers."
The farmers of this community
are most done tobacco and fod
der and will take a much-needed
rest spell. Some say that the
people around Mt. Eliam are the
workingest people they ever saw.

we will not take up space to men- which last has various kinds of
tion, but wish to tell of some ob- animals within it. One of the
jects of interest. The first place old soldiers pointed out an elk
we went to after our arrival
there was the General Fire Ex
tinuisher Co.'s plant, where
we found a genial and clever
Lumbertonite in the person of
Mr. Ira B. Townsend, who very
kindly showed us over the plant,
and we were surprised at the
immensity of the same, thinking
it was only a small plant, out in
stead it looks as if it would cover
several acres. Also the form of
extinguisher was different from
what we had in mind. Instead
ot the tube order it was pipes
fastened to the ceiling with a lot
of little nozzles of the spray de
sign, and we were told that at a
certain temperature of heat these
small nozzles wonld burst and
spray water in every dirrection,
extinguishing the fire automati
cally before it could get any
headway. Upon leaving the fire
extinguisher dant we went back ther. speaking concerning the
to the city and fed our face, and war, the old gentleman said in
after doing that to our satisfac- part: "You may think it strange
horn growing that fast before.
Right here I desire to tell ot a
conversation I had with this old
soldier of the North, who fought
against the Southern -cause we
love so well. He was an intelli
gent old man, and seemed highly
educated. I told him that my
father fought in the Southern
army, and he said he did not
know of anything he had rather
do than meet a Confederate sol
dier and shake hands and talk to
him;that they were a higher type
of soldier than the Northern
soldier, and that their cause was
just and should have won. Fur-
Mr. Okey Stephens went into
the swamp Saturday to hunt his
cow. He took Johnnie with him
to hunt, and before he got home
he needed Johnnie, Jimmie and
Henry. He found the cow. But
when he had tied her and come
some distance the cow lay down
in the ditch to stop a while. Well,
Okey and Johnnie had one of
Uncle "Harry's" times. They
tried everything they could think
about, but "Sal" was in the
ditch still. They tied "Sal" and
left her and went to hunt some
thing to eat;then they went back.
"Sal" was there. They then
tied her to a buggy and tried to
pull her with a mule, but it was
a slow drag. As the sun was
One Man Killed and Several
Wounded as a Result of
Fierce Fight The Outcome
of a Deadly Feud.
In a fierce free-for-all fight at
Huntersville, Mecklenburg coun
ty, Saturday evening, Reece
Hucks, a well-to-do young farm
er who lived near Croft, received
pistol shot wounds from which
he died a few hours later at St.
Peter's Hospital, Charlotte,
where he was taken immediately
after the fight; Lester, Hucks,
brother ot the dead man, was
shot across the back; Mack Cox
was shot in the arm; Ed Cox was
cut and otherwise badly battered
and bruised ;and Charles Cox and
Gilreath and Batte Davis were
cut and injured in more cr less
serious fashion. The shooting
was all done by Ed Cox. Reece
Hucks was wounded three times
once in the abdomen, a second
time irthe arm, and again in the
left chest near the heart.
The riot occurred on the main
street in Huntersville, just in
front of the postoffice, and was
witnessed by an immense throng.
For some years there has been
bad blood between the Hucks
brothers and the Coxes, but they
had been keep apart until they
attended the farmer's institute
at Huntersville Saturday. Just
as the crowd was dispersing
Batte Davis, a friend of the
Hucks brothers, met Charles
Cox in front of the postoffice
and asked him whether or not he
had killed a dog last summer and
thrown the dead body in his
yard. Cox replied that he had
and had no apologies to offer, and
the hght began at once, it is
said that Cox was getting the
better of the fight when the
Hucks brothers appeared on the
scene. They interfered and Ed
Cox, who was watching the fight
between his brother and Davis.al-
so joined in. Reece Hucks is said
to have cut Ed Cox and then Cox
broke away and pulled his pistol,
shooting with deadly ettect. Af
ter shooting Reece Hucks three
times Hucks fell but regained his
his feet and grabbed a chair and
hit Cox over the head, then tail
ing again to rise no more. Ed
Cox, seeing Lester Hucks and
his uncle, Mack Cox, fighting
near by, emptied his pistol in
their direction, one bullet grazing
Hucks across the back, and a
second striking Cox in the arm.
Gilreath Davis, who was stand
ing near by and was also more or
less involved in the affray, was
