C, August 17, 1909 Quite a number of very favor able comments were made on the appearance of the court house, in terior and exterior, last Thursday night, when D. A. Tompkins spoke to a number of our citizens there. The auditorium and halls had been thoroughly cleaned and the old dingy, smoking lights were replaced by others more suitable, cheerful and worthy of our com raumty. J or this improvement the city and county is indebted to the foresight of Sheriff McKenzie, the enterprise of Chairman of the County commissioners, Beard, and the splendid services of the careful and ever busy janitor, Mr. Lentz. FARMERS' STATE CONVENTION. A DRASTIG MEASURE. Alabama Legislature Proposes to Put the Lid on Very Tight. A Montgomery, Ala.A dispatch gives the following Bynopsis of Representative Fuller's bill, which is said to be the tightest prohibition bill eversubmitted to a legislative body: Declaring possession of liquors, except in residences, illegal, 4 the the bill provides that such posses ion sha'l be prima facie evidence that the liquors are kept for sale ; it prohibits newspapers from ad vertising intoxicants, prohibits such advertising on billboards -and excludes dodgers or other printed matter advertising liquors from the state. The possession of Federal license to sell intoxicants is made prima facie evidence of violation of the law. When li quor is delvered to any public place, the delivery is an evidence of sale. Omcers are given the right to break open and raid any building in which it is suspected liquors are stored. If a drunken man injures an other in any way the person who sold the liquor which produced the drunkenness is liable for -dam ages to the injured person. ITT t ' witnesses in Jiquor cases are compelled to testify, or be guilty of contempt; servants may not be excused from testifying against employers. Sheriffs must publish monthly in newspapers as well as placards, larg6 black type the names ofper- sous in their respective counties, who possess United States internal revenue license. Prohibited liquors are not to bo treated as personal property but adjudged contraband, and may be destroyed. Every firm or corporation ap plying for a charter must sign a pledge not to violate the prohibi tion law in any way. If the agree ment is broken the charter is de clared forfeited. Under the Fuller bill solicitors may begin prosecutions, and grand juries indict. The bill prohibits the soliciting of orders for liquors for concerns outBide the State; prohibits ship ping liquors from one place to another within the State ; provides that all places where liquor is stored, or from which any prohi bition violation is accomplished, may be declared a public nuisance, and be closed by injunction ; liq uors shall not be received for storage nor for sale; no person snail act tor a iriena in procuring a sale; C. O. D. shipments are prohibited. Buildings must not be leased to any one for the sale of intoxicants, and in case such tramc is conduct- :i j 1 l ii. . 1 ? 1 -1 ? ea, me lease on ine Duiming is forfeited. Finally, all persons are prohibited from using signs bearing the word "saloon." Violation of any one of the nu merous provisions is declared a misdemeanor, punishable by fines ranging from $50 to $200 and by six months' hard labor. This bill passed the House on Friday. Ed. August 24-27. 1909. Suggestions to Those Coming to the Convention. Special to The Watchman T. B. Parker, secretary of Far- mers' institutes, ttaieign, senas out the following information concerning the Farmer's State Convention: A receDtion committee, - of a which W. C. Etheridge is chair man. will meet all trainB at tho union station Monday evening, Tuesday and Wednesday. When you get off the train, look for men with badges: "Reception Commit tee", or for sign: "Headquarters, Reception Committee, State Far- mei'd' Conyention," and make vourself known. The committee will take care of you-. Those who prefer will be assist ed in securing satisfactory accom modations in the city, while those who wish to room at the college will be escorted there and provided with rooms free and meals at cost. Those who intend rooming at the college should notify E. B. Owen, West Raleigh, when they will arrive, but failure to do this need not prevent anyone from securing a room at the college 01 hi arrival. ThoBe expecting t room at the college should bring towels and pillows with them . The accommodations for room ing at the college are not good", owing to the fact that the college has no furniture or bedding ex cept that furnished students, bu such as is there will be at the dis posal of those who wish to avai themselves of it. A fare of one and one half fare plus fifty cents has been granted for the Farmers' State Couven tiou, provided there are as many as one hundred persons attending the meeting holding properly re ceipted certificates. The condi tions are in the main, that a first class ticket at full fare be pur chased from the starting po nt, or the nearest noint thereto at which a through ticket to the place of meeting can be obtained, taking from the ticket agent a receipt for the same on the regular cer tificate used for thia purpose by the railroads; this certificate when properly signed ly the secretary or the association and a represen tative of the railroads will consti tute an order on the local ticket agent for a return ticket at one half the regular rate to the hold er. The rates wHl apply to all points in North Carolina and from Norfolk, Portsmouth, Suofflk, Roykms and Danville, Virginia, and are granted by the Atlantic Coast Line, Durham and South ern, Norfolk and Southern, Sea board Air Line and Southern rail ways. The tickets will be on sale August 20, 1909, and properly signed certificates will be honored for return journey on or befon August 31, 1909. Information, sample certificates and programmes may be secured from the secretary or E. B. Owen, registrar of the college, West Ral eigh, N. C , upon application. A splendid programme has been arranged and a profitable time if assured all who attend the col venbion. ' - What Goes With the Corn. People often wonder, particular y those who have traveled for hundreds of miles through the corn belt, what Becomes 01 toe corn which is grown every year. In the year 1908, when the total crop was 2,656,000 bushels, 241,- 000,000 bushels were consumed in flour and grist mill products; 8,- 000,000 bushels in the manufac ture of starch ; 9,000,000 bushels for malt liquors ; 17,000,000 bush els in the pioduction of distilled liquors; 40,000,000 bushels ior glucose; 190,000.000 bushels for export, and 13,000,000 bushels for seed, making a total of 518,000, 000 bushels, or 19-3 per cent of the entire crop. The remaining 80.7 per cent., or 2,118,000,000 bushels, seems to have been used almost entirely forfeeding. "Kan sas City Journal. SALISBURY MARKETS. Corrected weekly by D. M. Miller.
