WHITE MAIL CLERKS WORK UNDER A NEGRO. Washington, D. 0 April 19. Senator Overman and Kepresenta tire Faison called on Postmaster General Barleyion today to urge the appointment of 0, F. Carroll. of Warsaw, superintendent of the third division of railway mail clerks. During the hearing it was shown that 40 per oent. of the railway mail olerks in that divisin, which embraoes the District of Colum bia, Virginia and North Carolina, are negroes. In one instanoe a negro is over a number of white olerks. This news caused something of a lensa tion when it was brought out. It is safe to say that there will he a change in the complexion of the railway mail olerks in the third division before long. H. E. 0, Bryant. Why should objections be made tp little matters of this kind? The DEMOCRATIC ring of Salisbury no longer than Friday registered and voted between forty and fifty Negroes to defeat a loyal Demo crat. If they are to vote and pay taxes, then justice requires that they should have their pro rata of the offices, Surely the ring uemooms do not mean to usurp everything? It turns out that obligations contracted by the last Congress (Democratic) exceed two billion dollars, wnion, with the present revenue, will mean a deficit next year of $180,000,000. That's go ing some. And yet they say they are going to lower the tariff and reduce our revenue. Just as well manufacture the plates now for a new bond issue or call a halt to extravagant appropriations, Lin oolnton Times, ... A man who willfully and delib erately propogates, or repeats something known to be false is not entitled to consideration by reputable people. When a paper becomes so politically biased that it cannot tell the truth regarding political matter its usefulness as a disseminator cf newa and opin ions is at an end. The time for considering the paople a'lot of igno ramnies and molly-coddler to be led by fraud and deception has passed. The people are awake as never before and know the situa tion as well as any one. To, say the last oongress was Democratic is a falsehood known to every one and its telling will act as a boom erang to the person, paper or par ty that puts it out.If the expends tore of th last congress, whioh was controlled by a Republican senate and Republican president, were more than usual, it was largely because of the floods along the Mississippi and the mobilizing of the army in Texas by President Taf t. These called for extra heavy expenditures and no one has yet been heard to complain of it. If oomplaints, however, were in or der, it oertainly does not become a Republican to make them .

SCHOOL STRIKE LIttIt Girt Killed la ; Decojsti.tloa Agilnit f : r iSnperliUaiiBT. -ZMt- PittsWrg, April 22 The "strik of school children against S. L. Heeter, as superintendent of the city's publio sohool system, spread rapidly to-day and resulted in one death. A little girl was rnn down by a street oar and killed during one of the demonstrations. Beginning yesterday when hun dreds of children remained away from sohool as a protest against Heeter, vWho last Friday was acquitted by fury of two serious oharges preferred by a female do mestio employed at his home, the strike gained great propotions to day. In all parts of the city thousands of sohool children pa raded the streets, tieing up traffic at a number of busy points. Police reserves were called out to maintain order. Late in the afternoon when the demonstrations of the children had ceased the Pittsburg Board of Education held a meeting at whioh a committee of seven prominent men was aBked to investigate the various alleged charges of immor ality against Superintendent Hee ter. Banners of all descriptions, some of them inflammatory, are in evidence all over the city. At a number of points during the day Heeter was hanged and burned in effigy. FAITH, April 28.

Stewart, Salisbury N. 0; Wilf SUBJECT OF CABINET UEETIKB Jrpaa Aroused Toward This Country. The NatloD and not Cilif jroli Responsible. b Washington, April 21. The desree of interest and ooncern which is felt in official circles of Washington ever the Japanese, matter cannot be overstated. It is a striking faot that the most pr acft-lbviDg and peace seeking administration in a quar ter of a century is confronted with the most serious menace of the international trouble that any president and cabinet has had within that period. President Wilson is . devouring eagerly everything he can reach or hear concerning the Japan sit uation and is keeping Seoretary Tumulty traveling between the white house and the state depart ment to discover whether Seore tary Bryan has developed any new solution of the California land law. The whole cabinet meeting of tomorrow (Tuesday), will be con centrated upon the Japanese situ ation. And there is not a de partment of tine government that does not hold this to be the most imminent and the most touching question before the American gov ernment and the Amerioan people. I am able to say from informa tion that the attitude of Japan toward the United States is not unfilutory, but resolute and ag gressive in the extreme. The Japanese foreign office has passed up the state of California as a neligible and irresponsible party in this controversy, and has made pit clear that it holds the United States government directly and entirely responsible for this insult upon the Japanese people, and the disinterestedness of the rights of Japan in America. President WilsonV message, in which he urged, in the interest of a peaceable solution, that Call tornia should eliminate the words ''Ineligible to citizenship" from its land law seems to have in creased rather than ohecked the irritation. Some of its statesmen hold openly that this very request of the president contains a reoog nition of the Japanese nation and there is no doubt that such infor v mat ion comes from offlclar aatta ces that Japan is aroused toward this country as it has not been before and the United States pro claims the resolution of state rights to California and aggres siveness of Japan is nearing de velcpment into a serious affair J. T. Graves. JUDGE W. B. COUNCIL A CANDIDATE. Hickory Man mi Former Jongs Eeters Rice tor Collectorship of Internal Revenue. Washington, April 22. Judge W. B. Council, of Hiokory, is definitely in the race for Collector of Internal Revenue tor the West ern District. This beoame known here today. He is said by maoy. to be the most dangerous candidate who has yet appeared in opposition to A. D. Watts. If the President should decide to reoogniie only "Wilson progressives," as he was urged by E. J. Justice to do, it might greatly improve the chances of Jadge Council. Jadge Council is at present serving as State Senator. He was for 10 years jndge of the Superior oourt, and resigned to enter the race for the Senate. While on the bench he made a most envia ble reoord. His friends say he has been a "Wilson progressive" for many years and worked nutiringly for the success of Wilson at the Baltimore Convention, Hickory, April 22. The friends of Jadge W. B. Counoil have to day filed an application for his appointment at Collector for the Western Distriot of North Caro lina. ""Judge Oounoil ii a brother of Dr. J. B.

Attention to detail often means suo cess In the poultry basin ess. The merits of the scratching shed are shown during bad weather. The incubator should be In readi ness before It Is time to start it. Overcrowding Is one of the worst and most frequent mistakes made by poultrymen. Allow chickens of all sizes a good dust bath. They enjoy it, from the smallest to the largest. . , Dry mash, charcoal and grit can be fed In a box covered with half-inch poultry netting, without waste. ; Don't keep unsightly or crippled chickens, even though they have been valuable birdB in their day. Some tell the sex of the guinea fowl by its wattles. Those of the male are double the size of the female. Some of the causes of roup are sud den and extreme changes in tempera ture, damp houses and draughts. A good poultryman Is Industrious, not easily discouraged, filled with pluck and grit and full of ambition. Have your fowls bo tame that you can go among them without causing fright. Tou will get better egg pro duction. Excited men and women make ex cited birds, and that has a bad effect on the egg-producing mechanism of the birds.

Strong, vigorous men and -women hardly ever catch cold; it's only when the system is run down and vitality low that colds and coughs get a foot hold. Now isn't It reasonable that the Tight way to cure a cough is to build up your strength again? Mrs. Olivia Parham, of East Dur ham, N. C, says: "I took Vinol for a chronic cough which had lasted two years, and the cough not only disap peared, but it built up, my strength. The reason Vinol Is so efficacious In such cases is because it contains in a delicious concentrated form all the medicinal curative elements of cod liver oil, with tonic, blood-building Iron added. Chronic coughs and colds yield ta Yinol because it builds up the weak ened, run-down system. Tou can get your money back -any time if Vinol does not do all we say. P. S.
