priveleges and ejections saboom-
mittee, with Senators Overman,

O H. Martin olerk' to the ml at
mmittee said he owned $2000
worth 0f itpok Jn fthe mine, but
that she DUrcoase was made sev
aral months before the Williams'
" letter appear edV
' John W. Halsey, .clerk to the
eensns : committee, said- that, at
Newman's request he had directed
' A subordinate to make about
letter on committee paper. He
said he had bought 1,000 shares
of Geld Hill stock on
margin several months
before 'the letter was written.
The stock went down and his
margin of about 850 was wiped
out he said.
Newman probably will appear
before-the committee tomorrow,
John Skeleton Williams, comp
troller of the currency, and
Gsorge E Robberts, .director of
the mint, will be asked to explain
the sendiug of a government ex
pert to examine the mine.
Senator Overman said that he
understood that daring his ab
sence from his office, and without
.his consent, probably three or
four copies of a letter written by
J 0 Williams, a mining expert,
to Senator W. E. Chilton in re
gard to the Gold Hill property
had Teen Copied on stationery of
the Rules Committee of which he
is chairman.
No one will suppose for a min
ute that Mr. Orerman deliberate
ly handed out oommittee-room
stationery to Newman to use for
boosting the worthless stock of
the Gold Hill mine, and it is pre
. sumed the committee of inquiry
will folly exonerate him in this
regard, which, it is believed, will
be full and csmplete, yet it is
hoped,' it will not convey the
impression that the Gold Hill
took dealers have been given a
license to continue their wild oat
operations aud a bill of good
character.
OAN T AND HYPOCBICY.
Mr. Martin stated that he as
sumed all the responsibility and
blame for what happened in Sen
ator Ovirmm's cffio iu connec
tion with oopy-nc of thu J C .
Will anslettr on Rules Oom v
tee paper; that frequently Sena
tor Overman's constituents from
North Carolina come into the of
fice and ask for a sheet of paper
to write a letter on and that he
has never jet related to-grai t
inch a request from auy constitu
ent; thot Miss Moore, the lady
stenographer, bad fnq ectly, to
his knowledge, writt n U tterf
for constituents, who happened to
be jn the office, on Senate station
ery and that Miss Moore bad a
right to assume that tb'o was
nothing improper or reprehensible
in making the copy of the letter
which she' made for Mr. Newman
and which brought about this
invest:gtion.
Isn't it strange then, Mr. Mar-
. tin, that the Sn ate, which ordered
this investigate u, does not know
the difference between tweedledum
aid tweedledet? Probablyit had
better employ Mr. Martin and
the lady stenographer to gaide.the
ship of state. , . ' r
Mr. Martin slated that daritfg

Veij 1 Bat how r about a Vitock

aess of dropping in and using of
ficial stationery to boost a lot of
worthless stock? And when did
Mr. Williams, become a mining
expert? Where are his credentials

of the NeVafi'j.'and . similar
schemes, is he connected?, And

object to Jgiviog -anyone', a sheet

this paper have something, print

Suppose officials jn the Treatury
Depiftmemtould take this sim
pWjvieWf J50 biLp and. han4
thenr outb friends wh,a occasion--
itr
that the printing on paper alters
its value and makes it more than a
trivial sheet of paper? Fortun
ately, Mr. Martin is not in a more
responsible position. Isn't this
attempt to ridicule righteous in
dignation sufficient evidence that
some one knew that he was doing
wrong and did it deliberately?
Mr. Martin said he bad $2000
of the Gold Hill stock, and would
kfep it until it went beyond $2.
Miss Moore stenographer in
Senator Overman's office, stated
that Mr. Newman came into the
office during Senator Overman's
ab8eno3 and asked her to make a
copy of a letter from J. O. Wil
liams to Senator Overman with
the knowledge of Senator Over
man's clerk, and she unhesitating
ly complied with Mr. Newman's
request and made him three or
four copies of the letter: that she
did it open and aboveboard,
thinking that there was nothing
improper in it; that to her know
ledge Mr. Newman did not specify
any particular kind of paper upon
whioh he desired her to make a
copy of the lettet which he gave
her aud she copied the letter
on the Rules Committee paper
which was the most convenient
at baud.
So Mr Martin admits he has
$2,000 of Gold Hill stock. We
wonder how he got it? If he paid
for it, he is going to lose some
thing, unlsss he can find a sucker
to unload on. But why should
he pay for such stuff while it is
being handed out to others mere
ly for thd use cf their name and
influence? Aud this promoter, of
wild cat sfceck, this fellow who
can't sell gold dollars at 60 cents
each on his own. statement, was
waited on aithcut hesitatian, this
gentleman who is not a resident
of North Carolina, is received
with open arms, -while thousands
f good, honorable citizens of
North Carolina would have likely
not been allowed to see inside of
the cammittea-room, or if they
were and wanted letters written,
they would, have been informed
that a public stenographer could
be found inf the Statuary Hall,
or elsewhere, ana tne request
would have been regarded as a
monumental piece of presumption.
If the committee clerks and steno
graphers think there is no harm
in boosting wild cat sonemes on
official stationery, then their
thiuk-box is woefully out of order,
or totally out of commission.
Thy watchman fats kod9 into
this matter superficially, not with
any special animosity to Mr. Mar
tin or others, bat, merely to sjiowj
what trivial consideration
e
ing given; this matterlJrowv ignor
ant the nublie is supposed to be
and how' the peoplijfare sneered at
when their servants are caught
red-handed with the wicked ones.
This feathering of one's nest and
this greedy dollar grabbing by
and through the positions they
have beeu entrusted with by the
people, is astounding.
Of course the stationery inci
dent will be white-washed and
dropped, it being of secondary im
portance, while the real kernel
of the matter we fear, will be Ig
nored, if the investigation does
not result in a boost for Newman
and his stock selling scheme.
The thing th9 government needs
to do, in justice to all conoerned,
that it, if our government is in
terested in seeing that ' justice is
done and innooent people .protect
ed, is to send a 4 'competent engin
eer, not a government "expert
who must do the bidding of his
superiors or get off the job, to ex
amine the mine and make a sim
ple, intelligent report as to Phil
lips, Newman, et alii. , Let this
statement not only include the
possible value of the' ore and
Quantity. : but the probable oost J-
of getting it r to the, assay office.
and whether or not there is auy
real eifort being made to work the
mine with. the mon r being . ob
tained by the sale of stock. Na'
doubt there is 100,000,000 worth
of gold somewhere, but unless, it
is in concentrated, availably form,
and an honest effort is made to
operate the mine, it may-cost all,
or twice this amount to get it.

Intensive farmiiM of the high

worth not less thani$150 afl acre.
He has a oottagaftwith all con-

His reoords show that he has

Martin has irrigation system
but he seldom uses it. Although
living in aseotion where there is
ample rainfall in normal years,
he never permits a drop of water
to go to waste. He practices "dry
farming" methods and every drop
of water that falls on his farm is
put to use. He welcomes a year
when rainfall is below normal, for
at auoh times his crops are up to
standard, while tlnsa other far
mers are belcw, resulting in short
age and higher prioes to the man
who has products to sell And
Martin never has a crop failure,
His crops are always good. He
makes a specialty of these crops
which produce prodigiously and

Caner is almost invaribly at
first a local disease.
It is easily cured if promptly
recognized and at once removed
by competent treatment.
It is practically always incur
able in its later stage.
.me disease usually begins at
some unhealthy spot or some point
of local irritation.
In external cancer there is some
thing to be seen or felt', snch as ' a
wart, a mole, a lump or scab, or
an unhealed wound or sore. Pain
is rarely present. -
Cancer inside the body ii often
recognized by symptoms before a
lump oan be seenTr felt. Pre-
sistent indigestion, with loss of
weignt and change of color, is al
ways especially suspicions.
rersistent abnormal disoharae
from any part of the body should
arouse the suspicion of - oanoer,
particularly if tbe discharge is
bloody.
The early and hopeful stages of
cancer are usually painless.
Fear the begin ing of oanoer.
Never be afraid to know the
truth.
Any painless lump or sore ap
pearing upon your body should be
examined by ycur physician,
By the time a cancer has be
come painful the best ohanoe for !
its cure has passed.
But even a painful oanoer jean
be removed permanently if it has
not extended too far beyond the
place where it began . -
if you notice that a wart, mole
or other "mark" begins to change
.in appearanee or to show signs of
irritation go so a physioian and
have it completely removed. Do
not wtixiratil you are sure it is
caucerbtus.
All lumps in the breast should
beeqamined. In women the nor
mal change of life does not lead
t& increased flowing, whioh is al
ways suspicious, as the return of
flowing aftef it has stopped .
Medioine-which .relieves pain
does not have any effect upon the
disease itaelf ; it simply, produces
olOTvtEPt
er treatment. -
Cancer is of greater frequency
as ages over forty than tubercu
losis, phneumonia, typhoid fever
or degestive diseases.
At ages over forty, one person
in eleven dies of oanoer.
One woman in eight and one
man in fourteen over forty years
of age is attacked by the disease
with fatal results.
Largely because of public ignor
ance and neglect, cancer now
proves fatal in over 90 per oent.
of the attacks.
Of the 75,000 deaths from this
disease in the United States in
1913, about 80,000 were deaths
from oanoer of the stomach and
liver, 12,000 from oanoer of the
uterus and other organs of gener
ation, 7,500 from oanoer of the
bteast and about 25,500 from oan
oer of other organs and parts.
Cancer respects neither raoe,
oreed nor social position.
It is the common enemy of all
man-kind, attaoking rioh and poor
alike.
Its insidious onset oocurs at the
most useful period of life; and
death is most oommon at the age
when the care and guidance of
obildren and the continuance of
business responsibilities make the
mosner ana ratner tne most use
ful members of society.
The only cure for canoer is t-
remove every vistage of the dis
ease .
The only sure way to do this is
by snrgioal operation .
If taken at the beginning, the
majority of oases of oanoer are
curable .
All cases will end in death if
let alone.
Reoords of our best hospitals
prove that the ohances of eure are
very high with early operation,
and that these ohances decrease
with every day of delay.
Early diagnosis is therefore all
important. By the Amerioan
Soouty for the oontrol of oanoer.

terminates an evil relationship.
