Snyder Writes of His Exper
iences. To the Editor of The Robesonian:
I was cutting up today in the
garden some late corn that had
been blown down and tangled by
the wind, and it reminded me so
much of a tangled field of corn
that we charged through at
Sharpsburg just 47 years ago to
day that I can't help from telling
your readers about my experience
in that battle. Now it strikes
me that possibly I may have
written for The Robesonian some
thing about this battle in some
former communication, but if I
have, what's the odds?
We had invested Harper srer-
ry and after its surrender had
started on our march, when some
fool started the rumor that we
were on our way to North Caro-
ma. This shows how little the
common soldier knew about the
movements of the army, and the
worst of it all was that we be-
ieved the fool; but our hopes
were rudely broken when in pass
ing Gen'l. Ranson he said "Hur
ry up boys, Gen' I. Lee is want
ing you badly."
We then realized that we were
in for it. Fording the Sheiwi
doah, and after a long day's
march, we crossed the Potomac
and went into camp on its banks.
Going down to a spring for wat
er, I here met a crank who, he
said, belonged to the 34th Virgin
ia, and wrho tried to fool me by
alleging that our regiment would
not be in the ensuing battle, be
cause all history would show that
a 24th and a 34th regiment were
never known to be in a battle at
the same time. I would have
liked much to believe him, but
indications didn't point that way.
have often wondered whether
or not the poor fellow was killed
the next day.
We left camp at 2 o clock next
morningandmoved toourextreme
right, resting on the river: and
although history says the fight
began that morning at 4 o clock,
yet we heard nothing of the bat
tle till near 10 o'clock, the hills,
I suppose, cutting off the sound
of the guns.
At 10 o'clock we were double-
quicked to our extreme left and
placed in position. After a while
we had order to charge and this
was through a corn field, with
the corn all blown the other way.
and was one of the worst exper
iences I had during the war, as
we were being shelled all the
time. We got through after a
time with the loss of some of our
men, and were sheltered for a
while behind a stone wall with
the shells shrieking just ever our
heads. Then an order to charge
around a hill and to take this bat
tery in the rear. This maneuver
was successtully accomplished
and we came upon the support
through a ravine and took them
unawares. As their infantry were
running 1 noticed one fellow on
the right of the fleeing enemy
who didn t seem to be in much
ot a hurry to get away, so I put
my gun through a crack of the
fence and drew a bead on
him. I didn't kill him, but from
the way he dropped his gun and
moved his legs lam satisfied that
I placed him in the hospital.

about this interesting battle, but
perhaps you don't believe what I

Correspondence of The Robesonian.
Our community was saddened
yesterday when it became known
that Mrs. Joseph Barnes had de
parted this life. She had been
n declining health for severa
months and her physical condi
tion for several weeks had been
such that little hope was enter
tained for her recovery, but this
did not dispel the sadness caused
by her death. Mrs. Barnes was
good woman, loved by all who
knew her. She was about sixty- own sons
Robeson Should Move Up and
Sit at the Head of the Table
for a While-Its Able Sons
Without Recognition inDistrict
or State.
To the Editor of The Rubeaonian:
Now that the Tariff bill (or
Bill's Tariff) is out of the way,
the North Pole discovered, cotton
twelve cents a pound, and more
especially since the other coun
ties in the judicial and con
gressional districts of which
Robeson is a part and a large
part are beginning to sit up
and take notice of political con
ditions, Is it not about time that
the citizens of our own good
county should look about them
and set their political house in
order.if it is their intention to
put forward candidates for any
of the positions to which the sev
eral counties of these districts
may elect in 1910?
And first since it is a legiti
mate and worthy aspiration for
any county to endeavor to exert
at least a proportionate influence
in the choice of the various gov
erumental representatives as
signed, under our laws, to the dis
trict to which it belongs and of
which it is a component part-
Why should notoldRobeson move
up and sit at the head of the ta
ble for a while, at least,and take
the place in such matters to
which she is rightfully entitled
by all considerations? That she
is the largest county, with the
strongest voting power in the
seventh judicial and sixth con
gressional districts, ve all know,
yet, though we have candidates
or district and State officers.
none of them has been success
ful for a number of years. Can it
be that the "State of Robeson"
is lacking in competent and wor
thy men? Far be it from this
humble writer to suggest such an
absurdity, nor would any patriotic
citizen utter such a slander. On
the contrary, we have men good
and true, faithful and tried
farmers, business men, profess
ional men. What then can be
the trouble, wherein consists the
ailure, and what is the solution?
his writer is not a politician nor
wiseacre, but some things are
self-evident after a while. Either
we do not use good judgment and
tact in conventions, or we do not
give our man the united support
to which he is entitled if endorsed
by a majority of the township
primaries, such support as the
other counties in these districts
accord their candidates. It is a
truism that a house divided
against itself cannot stand, and
as long as candidates are marked
or slaughter before they get be-1
ond the county convention
stage, good men will be slow to
enter the lists. Would you, vo
ter, not feel the same way about
it?
I am not finding fault with any
one, nor is it my intention lor
a moment to attempt any dicta
tion (I trust I am too good a
Democrat for that; and, besides,
my fellow citizens have been too
good tome), but I do hold that
some county pride is pardonable
in these matters, and this little
article is submitted with the hope
that the spirit in which it is
written good fellowship and a
desire for unity will be the key
note of all Democrats in the ap
proaching campaign.
lhis article is already too long.
but we would like to show that i
in the judicial district we give
more than one-third of the ma
jorities cast in all the counties
composing the district, and in
the congressional pretty near
one-half ;and besides once saving
the State, we have always given
a large per cent, of the vote com
posing the large majorities in
the State in the past ten years;
and yet Robeson has no repre
sentation on the btate ticket, no
judge or solicitor or member of
Congress. It is all right to be
generous towards our sister coun
ties, but justice walks side by side
with generosity, and we should
remember our first duty is to our
and their talents and
Dillon High School Opens Well
Cotton and Tobacco Market
and Prospects A UsefulPam
phlet How to Get Good
"Grub."
To the Editor of The Koliesonian:
Yesterday marked the opening
of the high school at Dillon with
unusually large enrollment
an
and complete faculty in fact,
every feature attended by favor
able indications for a large meas
ure of success during the session
that it is now entering upon.
The patrons and friends of the
school rejoice in the fact that
recently the State board has ex
tended additional aid.
The cotton market has been at
high water mark ever since its
opening, with numerous buyers,
several large cotton firms being
represented.by competent gentle
men who exhaust from day to
day every effort to give the farm
er every cent for the fleecy sta
ple that the market will afford.
The crop is generally short, and
in sections the shortage is dis
tressing. We expect abnormal fig
ures ere the season closes. Bond
ed warehouses, I see, in different
parts of the State are springing
up and offering to loan money on
cotton stored at 6 per cent. It
might be a good thing to invest
in this direction.as we hope to
see 15 or 20 cents paid at no dis
tant day. The way matters stand
now looks like very much like '
the Eastern bear will have to
yield of his ill-gotten gains and
divide with the producer, for a
time, at least.
The tobacco crop, being per
haps the lowest grade in history,
has brought little compensation.
We predict a decrease in acreage
another season; if wisdom pre
vails we are certain such will be
the case. The writer would re
joice to see a reduction of at
least 50 per cent, in all tobacco
growing sections.
We have recently received
from the Department of Agricul
ture, Farmers Bulletin 369, entitl
ed "How to destroy rats," by
David E. Lantz, assistant, Bureau
of Biological Survey.Washington,
D.C. These are free to farmers
and can be had for the asking.
Send to your member ofCongress
the request and make an effort
to free your premises of at least
one of the pests that infests the
land.
We notice in The Christian Ad
vocate, random notes by some
Methodist preacher, where he
reports "good grub" scarce in
certain sections, even soup and
buttermilk hard to get. We
would like to advise, if the good
brother will allow interruption,

WHEAT CULTIVATION.
Mr. J. D. Johnson Makes a Val
uable Contribution to the Dis
cussion. To the Kdit.ir of The Kil"i.niitn:
I wish to say in regard to what
Mr. Harrington and Mr. McRae
have to say in regard to wheat
growing, that I differ a little
with them in preparing their land
for wheat.
My experience is that where
land has been well cultivated
this year in corn, and peas sown
in middle last plowing, that it
does not need breaking. Take
a disc harrow and run on top of
ridge, if any, which will cut
stalks and level down ridge.
Then sow your wheat and set
harrow so it will not go too deep
and turn just enough to cover
the wheat. Of course.it will not
cover all of it, but will cover
very near all if harrow is set
right, and at the same time it
will chop up the stalks and cut
up the pea-vines; then you can
set your harrow nearly straight
and run each way until you get
it chopped up and level, then if
you wish you can run a roller ov
er same and you will have as
good a wheat bed as you need.
Now, in regard to fertilizing
wheat will say if land has a good
crop ot pea-vines on it I do not
think it will need a complete fer
tilizer, as the pea-vines will fur
nish all the nitrogen the wheat
needs. Use about 2 sacks of
acid per acre and about 501bs
potash or kanit enough to make
this amount of potash. I find
wheat sown after peas to do bet
ter than after any other crop.
Would sow acid and potash after
throwing down ridge as you do
your wheat.
