Prize Winners from the Big Shows Will Be There. (Special to News and Observer.) Norfolk, Va., Sept. 24.—North Car olina will occupy a place of honor al> the Southern entrance of the Nor folk Horse Show, as Maryland doeq at the Western, and Virginia at the Northern. The three states which are situated side by side, the three states which are both neighbors and friends, the three states which grow and improve together with the impetus of a laudable competition, have much in common, and their honorary posi tions here are significant of their r<> lation to the development of this part of the country.

Norih Carolina will show a more than creditable array of horses ami equippages; and an will Maryland. Both have taken almost as deep inter est in Norfolk’s Horse Show as if the show were on the Northern or South ern side of the Virginia boundary line. In these elrcumstances Norfolk can not avoid an inspiring exhibition. Successful once, successful at all time.

RALEIGH, N. €., SUNDAY M ORNING, SEPTEMBER 25, 1001. ]NCIDENTS £H2 OBSERVATIONS, jj I — 1: BY R. L. GRAY. In the dark hours of Wednesday j morning, I looked out the windows of j the train ploughing its sinuous way . among the liills just, east of Asheville, j It was an eerie-\nigh't. Above the | mountains patches of dark clouds. scurried along on the wings ot the wind, skirting the summits as with a pall, breaking into fantastic frag ments about the high standing heads of the taller peaks. High in the heavens a hurrying moon shone pale and intermittently, seeming to follow as a lantern to light the way of the screeching devil that was then thun dering along the valley. , \s the coaches bent themselves around a curve the engine itsell came into view, the red flare of its furnace lighting the white mists of (he rivet; bottom into a transient inferno as it . passed, its belching black smoke en-j veloping the moonlit spruce ol the lulls in midnight mantles. Along the nat row gorge the grind of the wheels, the panting exhaust of the engine, the wild wail of the whistle created , an irreverent commotion at wmen i 1 silent sentinels of the road seemed to shiver their protest. It was as ] though man with ihe vulgar need of haste in his veins had invaded tuin smoke and fire and made intoleiable with sound the contemplative habita tions of the gods! And the moun tains resented the intrusion, the winds, hated it, the clouds and the mists re- | belled against the unsanctity ot the ■ act: even as I peered from the win- I dow, the mountains were blotted front , sight with the soft white mist that clung wetly against the pane. Ihe t roar of our progress was smothered i in that protecting blanket so that it I droned in a monotone instead of yelling like a fiend, the blare from the engine was only faintly visible, the black smoke front the funnel was swallowed and disintegrated in the rising mists. The solemn moun tains, wearied with the profanation of their peace had haughtily withdrawn their faces from the sight! The next day our party stood on the hotel veranda at Eagle's Nest. Imagine, you of the low-lands, if >ou can, standing: sheer upon the wall of the world and looking down, as a bird might look from its rest at the zenith, upon the earth laid out like a checker-board of many squares and many hues! Think of turning level eyes upon a sea of rolling billows, each its thousands of feet in height, water trreen as they break at youi feet, purple in their receding surges, misty blue as their faint and beckon ing lines merge softly into the horison. Cast your gaze upon the clouds turning and tumbling like giant puffs of smoke from some aerial artillery down the valleys between the mighty liiils. Mark the solitude undisturbed, hearken to the silences of the world seeking speech within your breast, hear the beating of presumptuous heart. Yonder, far down ’ is a slowly moving black speck. As you look and realize that, in all the vastness belpw it, only you can see alive, the thought is magically poignant. Only a crow, mayhap a buzzard, possibly a hawk the dist ance is too groat for certainty—but it inovos, it. is alive and its dreary soli tude it is that points the loneliness of yourself. Purple and green and white! And yonder, above, crimson and sapphire and gold afid violet in the clouds shot through from the bottom with the evening shafts of light: and yonder, the great half of its hub palpitating with streaming spokes of light, the great sun slipping down behind the peak! Long since the valley has darkened with the shadows. Already the mists j are settling down. As you look, the ! town that showed so clearly with its j glint of red brick and white paint, | fades slowly like a mirage of the sea. The sun is gone. On only one peak, the father of them all on the top most point of his long, arched back, there is yet a glimpse of gold. Gradu ally the color fades from the clouds, the smoky haze drifts more closely about til. bodies of the lesser sentries of tin' world that lie bo!ow r , only the dim outlines of the higher giants re main. A black cloud sweeps along the air, fringing a shadow in its path so dense one feels its ehillv breath. And then a silent commotion of the atmosphere. The scurrying of black clouds torn into flimsy strips that scatter as they go their way. And. then, there comes a gleam of pale, cold light. The moon breaks through. The old bald heads of the range peer out. the silvered foam below whirls in in distinct unrest or, deeper down, lies calmly like a sheet. The light is the light between the worlds. And you —you are alone, “forgetting and foi - got”—alone- with the world and the winds and the mountains, with that tugging at the throat that you think is sadness, that you feel is the grasp at the utterance of that peace which death and the untried Infinities of Time would seem to promise—before which, at whose breath, man-loving man draws back aghast. Some one touched my elbow and pointed to a faint streak of light, a dim red glint moving slowly through the Balsam Gap. Behind it flowed a string of white smoke, more faintly marked among the settling mists like the tail of an inferior comet. And I laughed. Is that thing, that puny in sect crawling its tedious way along the valley—can it be my devil of the hills east of Asheville! Is that tail of smoke, silent, slow moving, a line drawn on a speck of the background of the further hills, is that th* sum of my terr’fic disemboweling of these un-noting heights? The thing from which I had pityingly thought to see the mountains shut their eyes and stop their ears!

Later on. with Mrs. Gilmer and Mrs. Jones further brightening our table at supper, I remembered more clear ly that there were people in the val leys. at ov.r table, to whom the Gov ernorship was a big thing.

VASS TO-DAV He Writes on Modern Slavery in the Congo, Greed for Quick Fortunes Has caused Breaking of Treaty and Denied Opportunity to Mission Work ers Among the Oppress- People. Rev. L. C. Vass, who has for six years been a resident of the Congo section of Africa, is now in this enm ity in the interest of important mat ters connected with his work in Africa. For some weeks Mr. Vass lias been addressing largo audiences in various parts of this and t ther' States on the subject of the Congo. His story is a tin filing one especially that part v liich relates to the social life of the natives, and the political state e/ thing? through the maladministration ol the Belgian government. Mr. Vass wifi speak on these and ether great subject connected with tin- Congo on Sabbath morning and night in the- First Presbyterian church at 11 a. m. and 8 p. m. The public are cordially invited. At the request of The News and Ob server, Mr. Vass has written the fol lowing brief and interesting story of Conditions in the Congo Modern Slavery In The Congo. To the Editor: It is hard for us liv ing in ease under the civilizing influ ence of Christianity with a government whose existence is for The people, to realize that there exists today in Cen tral Africa a professedly civilized gov ernment by enlightened Europeans, which in spite of its wonderful pro fessions has proved to be the most gigantic slave organization of modern history. The Congo Free State came into of ficial existence in 1884 when the United States acknowledged its flag as a fjiendly power, and a few months later at the International Conference, held in Berlin, of the nations of Eu rope ,the United States also being a party, the Free State was officially set in operation with Leopold 2nd of Bel gium as the Sovereign. He accepted the position, agreeing to carry out the constitution adopted, which granted freedom of trade, and an open door foi all evangelistic and philanthropic vork. Leopold avowed his only pry gram to be the “moral and material welfare of the natives.” Twenty years have passed, and to day our papers are constantly record ing the abuses of treaty rights by Leopold .while we read of terrible at locities perpetrated upon the people whom Leopold took a pleasure in say ing to the world, he had come to ele vate and enlighten. How has all this come about? Greed answers the question in a word. The great Congo forests were rich in rubber vines, while the natives held large quantities of ivory, the inherit ance of many generations. Companies were soon organized to trade w.th the natives giving them cloth, salt, knives, beads, etc., in exchange. Thus Leopold saw much that he considered his legitimate spoils going to others. He then by royal decree, from which there is no appeal, appropriated all lands with the produce therefrom to the government. These lands were successively apportioned out from time to time to companies with exclusive lights to all the products of the soil. The government owns at least f»0 per cent of the stock of each of those companies in return for tins exclusive privilege of trade. Thus competitive trade has been excluded from all of this region. The natives being the only oim' who can Work the forests successfully are now forced to bring in the rubber as tribute, receiving noth ing in return, or a small amount, ac cording to the whim of the official in charge of the post. The naturally in dolent native of course rebels, and to keep them up to the work there Is an organized force of over 30,000 men with modern rifles who compel the bringing in of the full amount de manded. With one of these chartered com panies having full police power in their hands, an armed Cannibal soldiery at their back, with agents whose salary is controlled by the amount of rubber they shin, and often no one near to tell talcs, you can imagine the fear lu! crimes that will he committed by these agents to quickly gain wealth. I have myself witnessed dozens of burned and plundered villages, and scores of murdered and half eaten na tives whose only crime was that they were unable to meet the excessive de mands of tiibute bv the Government official. I have seen natives driven from their homes, but finally caught in the forests, carried away from their homes with rones around their necks to serve the government as forced la borers. At Leopoldville there are about 3,000 laborers in the govern ment works, about 2,000 of them are slaves caught in various raids by gov ernment officials. There are millions of natives who are today working on the plantations of the State and in their rubber producing districts whose only reward for their labor is the privilege of enriching the already over flowing coffers of the groat philan thropic sovereign of the Congo Free State. Mission work is equally hampered with the closing of the doors to free trade. The American Presbyterian Congo Mission has asked recently for 4 different land grants at various villages that school work and preaching might be begun, all were refused and at one point where work had been started, we were notified to close the stations and move away. The English missions and the American Baptist have been similarly treated. The Berlin treaty which is the Con gos accepted Magna Charter provided in case of abuse or failure to carry out stipulations that the powers could again meet to further consider these matters. England has already asked for such an investigation. The United States Senate has bad the matter pre sented to them by Senator Morgan in a memorial to Congress. Leopold re fuses to submit to an unbiased investi gation by disinterested parties foi he dares not have hi- s work brought of ficially to light. He also refuses the Hague Tribunal as a mediator be tween himself and his oppressed slaves, saving “T am absolute.” Thus with whip and gun in hand h e stands de fiantly before the world the largest and richest slave holder of modern n* 1 May an outraged world arise in righteous indignation to wipe out ihi* blot from Central Africa. s L.

The annual out nut of this quarry for several years has been from 1200 to 1400 car loads. This stone is of a handsome light grey color and is being shipped largely to Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Ohio and Virginia. This is one of the greatest enterprises of this community j and in its development much credit is due to three brothers, George Thomas and Frank Woodruff, citizen:! of Mt. Airy.
