m I it"-- ' mi i H. A. LONOON, Editor. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 15. 1916. The state convention of the Democrats in this state will be be held at Raleigh on the 27th of April. This was decided on at the meeting of the state execu tive committee held last Wed nesday night. The committee also decided that the county con ventions should be held on the 22nd of April and the precinct meetings on the 15th of April. According to the new plan of the party organization all the county conventions must be held on the same day, and all the pre cinct meetings must be held on the same day. This is much bet ter than having the county con ventions on different days. The state convention will not nominate candidate? for govern or and other state officers. They will be nominated at the prim ary election to be held on the 3rd of June. The convention will nominate the presidential elec tors and will also elect the dele gates to the national Democratic convention, to be held at St. Louis on the 14th of June. The committe adopted by an unanimous vote and with much enthusiasm a resolution endors ing the administration of Presi dent Wilson. TODAY is the 135th anniversary of the battle of Guilford Court House, a battle of such import ance that it is said to have made Yorktown possible, and yet we doubt if many persons in this state will give it a thought, On the 15th of March, 1781, the British army under Lord Corn wallis and the American army under Gen. Greene met in dead ly conflict at this place, then known as Guilford Court House, a few miles west of the present city of Greensboro. Although the American army was forced to withdraw from the field, of battle, yet it inflicted so heavy a loss on the British that the latter was forced to retreat to Wil mington. That city was then held by a British garrison under Major Craig, and there Corn wallis rested his weary troops and after several veeks marched northward to Virginia, where in October he surrendered at York town. Through the patriotic efforts of the late Judge Schencs the old battlefield of Guilford Court House has been made a beautiful park with many histoiic monu ments, and on every Fourth of July there is a grand celebra tion there in which the national government is usually repre sented. All Americans without regard to politics or race seem to ap prove President Wilson sending an armed force into Mexico to kill or capture Villa and his band its. No better man could have been selected to have charge of the movement than Gen. Funs ston. whose remarkable capture of the Pbilipino chief Augimaldo was one of the most daring ex ploits ever known. Of course there will be some persons in Mexico who may deem this an invasion of the sovereignty of their country, but President Wil son has made it distinctly under stood that it is only a punitive expedition to kill or capture a bloodthirsty bandit who has been a terror to both Mexicans and Americans. We trust that this expedition will do its work quick ly and successfully. The occasion of this expedi tion, or rather the last straw that broke the camel's back, wa3 the attempt of Villa and hi3 bandits to capture the town of Columbus, N. M., and murder its inhabitants one night last week. It would seem that a vigilant watch was not kept up, and it is strange that our soldiers were so surprised, and stranger still that the machine gun could not be made to work at the very time it was most needed. We hardly think that a body of Confederate soldiers could have been so easily surprised. We are pleased to note, however, that when our soldiers did get into action they quickly repulsed the bandits ani killed a large number of them. Perfidious Marion Butler, From the Charlotte Observer. The Republican campaign in North Carolina will be conducted this year under the direction of Marion Butler. The campaigners will' be supplied with plans by Mr. Butler. They 'will receive instructions from him and these instructions will be obeyed. Ma rion Butler will be the inspira tion of the Republican campaign. It will be an artful campaign and the ma'n endeavor will be to cre ate and faster discontent on part of the people of the state and dissension among the Democrats to as great an extent as possible. The main effort will be to arouse prejudices and in view of these facts it will be well to revive the memory of the people of North Carolina in the matter of Mr. Butler's political record. This record is an indictment which should be made known to the younger element of the state to the voters who are but recently exercising the franchise. The older- people know they need onlv to be reminded. It may not now be time to spread the full detai's of the indictment. It is many months before the people will pass final judgment on the issues of the approaching .cam paign. But the circumstance of the return of Marion Butler to a dominating position in the con trol of the Republican party in this state should not be permit ted to pass even temporarily without proper challenge of the reflection which his leadership of that party imposes on the character of the state. He began public life in North Carolina by the publication of a paper to which he gave the name Caucasian, and which in turn be came the chief spokesman for the regime of negro domination in the state. One of his early entries into political conventions was into the Democratic congressional convention in A892, which he at tended as as delegate, advocat ing the nomination of his coun tymaT, Hon. B- F. Grady, whose nomination he eulogized in his paper, and then bolted and help ed to nominate F. D. Koonce to oppose him. He was a member of the Dem ocratic state convention of 1892 that ' nominated Elias Carr for governor, whom he supported in the convention, and in his paper after the convention, and after ward participated in the Populist convention and helped nominate Exum to oppose him. In two years after he joined the Populist party organized mainlv as a protest against na tional legislation by the Republi can party he led that party into a fusion with the Republican party, which resulted in a fusion legislature that adjourned in honor of Fred Douglas and forced negro domination on eastern North Carolina to the point of revolution He took his seat in the United States Senatee and exerted him self to the utmost to secure Judge Pritchard's defeat for re-election at the end of his short term of two years, to the re election of whom he was solemnly and pub licly pledged in return for his having been given the full six year term. He betrayed his associates in the Democratic party. He betrayed the Populists into the Republican party. He betrayed his associates in the Republican party. He betrayed his race into ne gro domination. And while yet a representative of the interests and the honor of the state in the United States Senate he betraved the state it self to the holders of the millions of dollars of repudiated and fraud ulent carpet bag bonds. While yet a member of the United States Senate and draw ing his pay as a representative of North Carolina, he concocted the fraudulent scheme by which the holders of one set of those bonds could get jurisdiction in the courts to enforce against the state the payment of these bonds. While yet a member of the United States Senate, and draw ing pay as a representative of North Carolina, he accepted em ployment to represent the hold ers of these bonds to enforce their collection from North Caro lina, as shown by quotation from official record of his testimony in the suit to enforce their pay ment, as follows: Q. Please state who the client is that yoij speak of? A. The client was Schaffer Bros. Q. Did you appear of record in the case? A. I did not. Q. When were you employed by Schaffer Bros? A. In January, 1901. (He represented North Caro lina in the Senate until March, 1901.) While yet a member of the United States Senate, and draw ing his pay as a representative ot North Carolina, he procured the enactment of a statue by the state of South Dakoa, authoriz ing that state to accept dona tions of these bonds, as shown . by the official record of his testi mony in that suit, as follows: Q. State what conversation you had with Senator Pettigrew in reference to North Carolina bonds, which is the subject of this suit?. A- Some time in January or February, 1901, I had a conver sation with him which probably led up to the passage of the act of the legislature in South Da kota, authorizing that state to accept donations. As a result of the enactment of that statute the interests rep resented by Mr. Butler made a contribution of bonds to South Dakota, and in the name of thai state sued the state of North Carolina and obtained judgment in the supreme court of the Uni ted States, which forced the state to pay in full with interes! the bonds donated to South Da kota and to compromise the whole issue, the settlement for which amounted to about a quarter of a miliion dollars. Mr. Butler and his associate? then advertised in the New York press that they had found a wai. by which they could force pay ment of all repudiated statt bonds, but have since not bee" able to get any state to accept them as a gift, after being ad vised of their fraudulent charac ter. There are about seventeen million dollars' worth of thfse still outstanding, issued by car petbaggers, for which the state never received a particle of ben efit. They were issued ostensi bly to build railroads in the state, but not a mile of road was ever built with the proceeds of these seventeen millior dollars in bonds These are, in bare outline, some of the betrayals which the Re publican party, by permitting the return of Mr. Butler to a po sition of leadership in that party, have submitted as a challenge to the character of tne state. We have set them down here, not be cause this is the proper time to give them adequate considera tion, but tj put them, as well as the people of the state, on am ple notice of the significance that attaches to the Butler dom ination of their party under its new organization Having defeated the element in the Republican party that has stood out against his return to leadership in that party; having placed himself on the platform committee that shaped its declar ation of principles; having domi nated the action of the conven tion at every contested stage in its stormy proceedings, he now shrewdly proclaims that his duty will be to carry a musket in its ranks, but everv observing man in North Carolina knows that an increased Republican vote in the state would be universally ac cepted as a Butler victory, and that Republican success would be Butler success. Railroad News. The Burlington correspondent of the Raleigh Times says that Mr. T. O. Troy, who is promot ing the Piedmont Railway and Electric Company from Greens boro to Chatham county, an nounces the fact that actual work has begun on the road in Orange county. This will run from Greensboro to a point in Chat ham county to connect with the Seaboard Railway, and a branch will run, either from Greensboro or another point along the line to a point in Vir ginia to connect v ith the C & O. Railroad Says the Chapel Hill News: Ground was broken one day last week, two miles east of town, for the building of the Greens boro Northern & Atlantic Rail way, which has been discussed for the last three or four years. The work just commenced will be the first link of the road to be built between Chapel Hill and Durham. Later the road will be built between Chapel Hill and Swepsonville to Graham and thence on to Greensboro. This company was organized about four vears ago with T. O Tro, president; ('apt. J. W Fry, W. M. Thompson and the late R C. Hood. Bond issues were voted for the construction of this road in a number of townships in Or ange, Alamance, Caswell and Guilford counties. The city of Danville, Va., voted a liberal subscription to stock and the promoters hope to be able to ex tend the road from Burlington to Danville. How to Prevent Croup.

Obtainable everywhere, adv Uses and Abuses of Fertilizers By Prof. R. J. H. De Loach, Director of Georgia Experiment Station. 1. THE USE OF COMMERCIAL FERTILIZERS HISTORY. The First of a Series of Six Articles. We would not be disposed to try to give a complete history of the use of commercial fertilizers, but only to show how this great industry began and grew in the Southern United States. Generally " speaking, the farmers of this, generation inherited the habit of applying fertilizers to soils, but have not been taught the underlying principles of the industry. The use of some kind of manures on soils with crops for the purpose of in creasing the yields goes back to ancient times. We know that many ancient people applied animal manures to their sells for this purpose., The Chinese, centuries ago, applied manures of various kinds to their soils and gardens and with phenomenal results. In Von Tshudi s Travels m Peru we hna tnai as early as the middle of the last century notes were being taken on the actual value of Guano by the Peruvians. Bousingault speaks of seeing fields in Peru on which wheat grew every year for two centuries, and the yield still high and the growers prosperous. The practice of using mineral fertilizers was introduced direct from Pe ru to the United States in the year 1843, and was based on such reports as we find above. It had already been used in England before it found its way into the United States, but Peru seems to be the country in which the application of minerals to soils as plant food originated. We do not know this is true, but all evidence points to this. It is of greater interest to us therefore that we know about the customs in Peru. The First Use of Peruvian Guano. The first man in the Southern States to use this Peruvian guano was David Dickson, of Sparta, Ga., who saw an advertisement of it in the old Ameri can Farmer published in Baltimore. The South has perhaps never had a more successful farmer than David Dixon, who made many millions of dollars farming, and who was a pioneer in many other lines as well as in the use of mineral fertilizers. In the year 1846, the year after it was intro duced into the United States, he bought three sacks and used it, and on find ing that it paid him, bought it in increasing quantities till the year 1855 and 1856, when he "went into it fully." As is suggested above this is no doubt the first instance of the use of a concentrated mineral fertilizer on cotton in the United States. "The universal success with which Mr. Dickson met in the use of this Pe ruvian guano led many other prominent farmers to follow his example, and in every reported case, success followed its use. We are constrained to believe that the application oi this mineral fertilizer to the cotton and other crops in the South could not possibly have been an acci dent. Its success was unquestionably brsed on the actual needs of the soil. A quickly available manure was what tlie crop needed, and when this was once applied results were evident. After a time it was found that the Peruvian guano, which contained prin cipally nitrogen, produced too much stalky and not much increase in the yield of fruit, and hence its use was somewhat discouraged for a season. I The First Use of German Potash. About this time the war between the States began, and at the same time the discovery of the potash beds of Germany, also, the offering on the market of various kinds of mineral fertilizers resulting from the teach ings of Von Liebig of Germany, who was at that time the greatest cham pion in the world of agriculture and its possibilities. As a result the pop ularity of Peruvian guano subsided and more study was given to the gen eral question of fie use ot mineral manures, both by farmers themselves and the students of agriculture. : Two great contributing factors to the rise of the fertilizer trade in the South are first the abolition of slavery, and second, the rise of agricul tural education. Before the war the question of land was secondary. If growing farm crops in the South "wore the land out," there were plenty of slaves to "take in. more land ". It was cheaper to take in land than to pay . for any artificial manure. In 1S62, the Morrill Bill passed Congress, j creating agricultural colleges in the various states, after which there be i pan a campaign for improving methods in agriculture. Experiments at j public expense wer begun on a small ecale, and the public was induced to make greater use of plant foods of all kinds, as well as to improve methods of tillage. Thi?, of course, caused an immediate increase in the use of min eral plant foods, and out of which grew demands for great quantities of fertilizers. From this great demand tfcere sprang up fertilizer factories in all parts of the country. All kinds of materials were tried out, some was good, and some was not, but much of both kinds used. The factories had no restrictions ami many of them palmed off on the farmers anything that would e'liell strong and that could be pat in acks. This condition on ac count of state laws did not last long. V. e begin the next article by giving a resume of the part taken i:i the rise ef the trade by the states themselves. A negro woman in Raleigh, claiming self-defense, struck her husband on the head with a hammer last Thursday. Friday he died. The woman is in jail.
