Secretary Henry G. Hester of the New Orleans Cotton Exchange, an ac knowledged authority, says that the amount of cotton brought into sight during the first month of the present season was 1,425,316 bales, a decrease under the same : period last year of J 176,158 bales. The exports were 668, 257 bales, a decrease of .271,". 170 bales. The takings were, by Northern spin ners, 96,484 bale's, a decrease of 27, 163 bales; by Southern spinners, 199, 252 bales, an increase of 27,291 bales. During the 34 days of the season the amount' brought into sight wast, 1,789, 792 bales, a decrease of 165,500 bales. The exports were 877,704 bales, a de crease of 199,008 bales. The takings were, ,by Northern spinners, 144,877 bales, a decrease of 24,751 bales; by Southern spinners, 235,252 bales, an increase of 29,313 bales. ANENT APPLE GROWING. The Manufacturers' Record gives an interestng record of the actual re sults from apple orchards in Virginia for the past two years and the show ing is decidedly in favor of the im portance of the orchard. The inves tigation of the Virginia orchards show that 1 5-year-old trees ought to pro duce an average of from four to five barrels a tree. As the average in this territory is -40 trees to the acre, the yield- ef from four to five barrels a tree would be from 160 to 200 bar rels per acre which approximates the estimate of 175 barrels to the acre.' " In the conclusion of the story The Record says: "The average produce tion of 140 barrels to the acre for. a series of years on a particular tract of land within a territory yielding an average of 53 barrels to the acre in the past' two years indicates the pos sibilities in :V apple growing to -some extent.:: while even the smaller aver age production of 53 barrels, to the acre suggests the advantage of apple 1 culture over the growing of other crops in illustration of the benefits to accrue from diversification in agrlcrur ture. The Slier City Grit speaks with wis dom when it says that the teachers of the Slier City schools are demon strating the fact that they intend to have discipline and therefore are not sparing the rod. The Grit adds, "An impudent and lazy child is an abom ination under the sun and a hickory freely used is apt to contain great cu rative properties. "Spare the rod and spoil the child, is a pretty theory, but a school is not half a school which Is guided by such bosh.

Really It is a little too bad that Congressman Claude , .... ....... r should waste the time to speak to Mecklenburg f oik nthey '," have - heard all of the arguments already and may be there are some people somewhere wonder where who have not. To speak f com the heart it is hardly nec essary to deliver that ; address any where. It seems that the' result . of the Kitchin brothers is toward Clark. v Rev. Dr. J. Q.

CONDITIONS IN KOREA. If the statements "printed in! The Koen Up Seen Moon, a Korean news paper are true than conditions in Ko rea are most lamentable. vThls paper is published in Vladivostok because of the-' strict Japanese censorship. , The paper states that the atrocities prac-i tlced by the Japanese exceed in bru tallty and cruelty anything ever con templated in darkest Russia.'.',' The ac count states that "Koreans ,are be ing murdered in the streets and in the jails and no one is trying to put a stop o this condition of affairs, but now the very worst crisis .i is at hand for the Japanese are literally starving the native Koreans; not even allowing them the alternative of emigrating to bther lands." Further accounts state that in many districts the government has recently, taken charge of all; the money, - rice ' and : other edibles- that have been found in the houses of the Koreans, . ranging from the middle class to the wealthy. When the peas, ant wants anything , for himself or family he is required to ask the over seer of his possessions for it, and If the official thinks that the request is a just one he doles out a minimum of provisions The recent treatment ac corded Baron Tun, who is a graduate of Vanderbllt University. Nashville, Tenn., and a gentleman of the high est character, is being resented by, his many friends in the United States, who are actively engaged in endeav oring to secure justice for him IS MORE DAW NEEDED? The recent suggestion that hazing be made a crime by an act of the Legislature leads The Brooklyn Eagle to remark that the appeal of the trus tees and faculty of the University of North Carolina to the Legislature of that State to make "hazing"-in col leges a crime, though dictated by the best of motives, seems to spring out of the confusion of ideas. Students are now subject to law. The law already in North Carolina and else where makes a crime or misdemeanor out of any act that interferes with the liberty or the safety of another per son. What more is desired? Surely the non-injurious pranks of students will never be made criminal by any State. The enforcement of existing statues and the knowledge that these would be enforced to the limit would stop any form of hazing that is not trivial and negligible. But what is of greater importance is the creation in all colleges and universities of a pub lic sentiment that is opposed to haz ing as hazing.' In this work the col lege authorities can get little assist ance from the Legislature. We hard ly think they can get any at all. The notion that law can be' made a pana cea for all human weaknesses is just a bit too prevalent in most of ' the States of the Union Mr." Vllhjalmur Stefansson, the Arctic .explorer and . the discoverer of the blond Eskimo was partially edu cated In this country and spent two years as a student in the Harvard Di vinity SchooL Mr. Stefansson is not In favor of , bringing,- civilization! to these strange' people. He says that whenever a new people are discovered the commercial world wants to know of the : possibilities of J the surround ingss. In this case they want to know about the possibilities of bringing hundreds of thousands of furs into the markets of the world. " The Church, on the other hand, wants to know whether it can save the souls of the new people. Stefansson is a lit tle severe when he says that no one cares for the people themselves but he may have gained his impression from what he has seen among other tribes of Eskimos. ' - Mr. Harry G. Maupln, after a trip to Europe, has written a book.' He strives to prove that water transpor tation is not as cheap as rail,; He states that he has made extensive in vestigations while on the other side of the water and yet he does not explain why he went to Europe to study the question. The fact of the matter Is many will believe the author is in the pay of the railroads, for any well-informed man will know that transpor tation by water has always been as cheap if not cheaper, than by rail. Especially is this true in the , South, where the author could have recelv-. ed much valuable information, instead of going to Europe. -t The Manufacturers' Record tells of five-road bond elections "which .were held in Texas during September, re sulting' In $420,000 - being voted for highway improvements. All the elec tions 1 carried with the exception of one In Milam County, .in which. $200,? 000 were Involved. ' The' commission ers' courts In four counties have set dates for elections to vote on a total of $470,000 for good roads bonds, and eght 'eountes are circulating petitions involving $1,860,000-, the dates to ybe set' later. : Thus does" the good work go on and the interest in tbe building of good roads Is spreading. : ANENT THE .OAUPAIGIJ ,v;.,,. , r;--t -;- v.-- ' Mr. Roosevelt testified before the campaign fund investigating commit tee that he knew : that. H. C. Frick contributed heavtlv to the Roosevelt campaign; fund in 1904. Mr. Frick is one of the strong men 'In -the Steel Trust. So are J. Pierpont Morgan and George W. .Perkins. - - The Colonel said no contributions were accepted with the expectations of favors. Everyone familiar with Big: Business and Big Politics knows that it is not customary to specifical ly hang "expectations" on campaign contributions. Things aren't done that way; and it- is quitev likely that, the Colonel ordered the return of the'eon tribution of the man who asked to be appointed -, minister to Belgium. He was : a crass amateur and so violated all the etiquette of the game. Whatever Colonel Roosevelt may say and there is no one in American public life who can protest more vo ciferouslywhatever the Colonel may say, there are a few facts that speak for -themselves, -well worthy of the consideration : of the American people. Judge Parker charged in-1904 that the corporations were ' financing Roosevelt's campaign The Colonel in a characteristic - outburst declared that the Judge's charge was "atroci ously false." Well, the present inves tigation has 1 proved conclusively that the corporations did finance ' the Roosevelt campaign. John Pierpont ; Morgan ' and H. C Frick, each contributed more r than $100,000 to the Roosevelt campaign. Harriman and his associates contrib uted $250,000. Morgan and, Frick were the big men in the United States Steel Corporation; It is not charged that they asked any favors when they gave . the v money. . They knew the game too well. As far as the record shows, they were high-minded patri ots who wanted to-see a great man chosen President. But along in 1907 Morgan and Frick and the other Big -Men of the Steel Trust decided that thev wanted the Tennessee Coal & Iron Company. They needed that company - in their business.? But the Tennessee Coal & Iron was doing very well and did not want to be swallowed up by its huge rival. .."" :. -;; Then the Morgan and Frick In terests that's the way' they - refer to the combination In - Walt Street the Morgan and Frick interests went to their great and good friend and asked "permission" to "take over" -its fast growing rival. President Roose velt gave the desired permit and the Steel Trust went ahead and. gobbled up its helpless rival. Colonel Roosevelt may. protest and protest and call every one in the country a liar, but those are the facts. Morgan gave $150,000, but did not express any "expectatibna" Three years later he asked "permission" to absorb a rival and the President gave him permission. Facts are facts. Words are the cheapest commodities in the world. . ODDS AND ENDS. Strange, that when a man is blind drunk he will sometimes see snakes.

Where Locke Craig1 Stands. ; (Asheville Citizen.) The friends of Hon. Locke Craig. North Carolina's Democratic candi date for the governorship, should not be disturbed by 'the report that hid den enemies in the eastern part of the State, the same gang, doubtless, that stabbed him In the back four years ago, - are circulating reports to effect that Mr. Craig once voted for a Republican in Bertie County.' As a matter of. fact Mr. Craig left Bertie before he was old enough to vote. If such reports are being circulated, they are doomed to die an early death be cause of their very absurdity. But really the average campaign canard Is not worth a moment's notice, and the one reported to be .aimed at Mr. Craig would not be discussed here were it not apparent to his friends that invisible forces, working for a certain senatorial candidate, seek to advance their candidate's interests by striking at his opponent through a gubernatorial candidate who has ob served a policy of "hands off." The plotter would give much to see Locke Craig drawn into a , senatorial fight which has been made factional by the fear of certain defeat, but with that tact and sound judgment which has always distinguished him, Mr. Craig has not fallen for the bait. This is not a defense of Mr. Craig for he needs none. His life and po litical . records are open books to all who care to read, and no blemish mars a single page. Because of these facts an appreciative citizenship has called him, with a dissenting voice, to the highest office in the State, the highest honors that it has to bestow. We say he has been called to the ex ecutive chair because there is not the slightest doubt about his going there by one of the largest, if not the larg est majority, that the State Democ racy of North Carolina has ever rolled up. .The love and esteem in which Locke Craig is held by his fellow men is not confined to any particular sec tion; he is honored in all parts of the State. Indeed it might be said, that he is more the son of North Carolina that he is the son of the West. This section of the State plumes itself on the fact that it has the privilege of giving Lock Craig to : the State. 1 Meeting With Success. . The Knapp memorial committee' is meeting with great success in its plans for Knapp Agricultural Day in . the schools and colleges of the South.

(Greensboro (News.) t , Mr. Kitchin was a member of the executive committee that - prepared the 1912 handbook, which says: , "(Reci procity looks .like free trade, but tastes like protection. It Is really a hew sugar coated pill prepared by the Republican tariff doctors. for many patients , who are refusing to take their protection straight. : In practice It Is worse than protection." Yet, when President Taft tried to force reciprocity on the country,' Mr. Kitchin violently criticises Senator Simmons for voting against it. Which time was Mr. Kitchin right? (Statesvllle Landmark.)

Knapp of the United States Depart ment of , Agriculture, founder of the farm demonstration work. The Knapp memorial committee has decided to raise $150,000 with which to purchase and equip a farm and erect a building : In connection with the Greater Peabody College for Teachers,' in Nashville. Tenn. The General . Education Board of New York recently appropriated $250,000 to en dow the Seaman A. Knapp School of Country Life. Nothing like this school has ever been' worked out anywhere. It is a great : opportunity for a distinctive work and a great service. - The me morial building for the purpose of this school will be located on tbe campus of the Peabody College, and . will con? ta'a a life-sized statue of the ; South's great benefactor and friend, so that his grtt. masterful, benevolent personality will always be an inspiration to the thousands who may oome and' go.' The farm will be located within 10- or 12 miles ol Nashville, and will be conducted in .accordance with the demonstration methods. It will contain, about 200 acres. Pure-bred seed and animals will be de veloped. , The best '' devices and : imple ments will be used. Crop rotations will be. worked .out for different Southern conditions. Demonstration agents, rural school supervisors. State and ; county superintendents of education .and . other workers wlll make . his farm, a t rallying' point, In order to carry back " to" their States the benefits 4 of the ? work done there, v Corn dub boys iand canning, club girls will also make occasional trips to this agricultural Mecca for ntiration and Instruction.

Mr. Poe of North Carolina, secretary, and Mr. Martin, treasurer. . The committee has employed a financial agent, who has opened headquarters In the v Southern ' building in Washington and has already begun to raise the $150, 000. This agent is Mr. Thomas A. Early, who has been director of the corn club work in Tennessee. The plan of the com mittee was presented late in July to the Teachers' . Summer School at the Uni versity of Virginia, At the first presenta tion more than $1,000 was -jbecribed, and hundreds of teachers volunteered to aid the committee in their schools and communities. Mr. Early, appeared before the farmers' . round-up , institute , and meeting of demonstration agents at the Agricultural College of Alabama and explained the plans for ' the memorial. Five hundred dollars In .contributions and five hundred In subscriptions were raised in a few . minutes. State com mittees have been organized In all the Southern States, and the work of raising the memorial funds will be pushed with all possible speed. vv,r Hundreds of letters have already1 been received by the Knapp memorial com mittee approving the , form of the me morial. There seems to be a feeling that It Is. in harmony with Dr, Knapp' s Hfe and work because it will be con tinually rendering service and doing good. In fact, his own sentiments in fluenced the decision In regard to the memorial, in one 'of - his last speeches he said; "The least worthy monument to a man Is a granite block or a marble shaft.

Lack of space last week -.prevented our noting all the vulnerable parts of Governor Kitcbm's very vulnerable speech. - There are .two assertions he made that we will refer to this week. " He ' said that the reason the ' late Governor Aycock, who had '; been . a lifelong personal and political friend of of Senator Simmons, became a can didate for the Senate was that he did not approve the votes of Senator Sim mons on Lorimer, lumber and other questions. ' He also said that Senator Simmons had entertained Lorimer at his . home in Newbern and ' that the two, were at the; time interested - in making some lumber deal, endeavor ing to make, the impression: that" Sen-' ator Simmons', vote against expelling Lorimer was on account of intimate social and business relations. The first assertion is in direct con flict with what he and his : friends were . constantly - saying about Gov ernor Aycock's candidacy while. he was still alive. Then he - said Gover nor Aycock was running to help Sen ator Simmons, by drawing votes frdm him (Kitchin) . And his chief . ap pointee, Laughlnghouse, superintend ent of the penitentiary, was writing letters describing Aycock as a con firmed drunkard and wreck. It suiti ed his purpose while Aycock was alive to ' attack the sincerity and integrity of his candidacy and call it only a blind in the interest of Senator Sim mons. Since his death it suits his purpose better to say that Aycock be came a candidate because he disap proved of Senator Simmons' course in the - Senate. - - .- The second assertion about Sim mons entertaining Lorimer in his home is utterly false. We do not say Kitchin invented the falsehood, but he repeated in a public speech some idle or malicious rumor that . he thought would- injure his opponent, without taking the trouble to investi gate and find out whether there was any foundation for., 't. v Governor Kitchin made this same statement in Goldsboro last Saturday, and Senator Simmons' attention having been called to It, said there was no truth what ever in . it. He never entertained Lorimer at his home or had any busi ness deal of any kind with him. It is hard to think that a man occupy ing the position of Governor and as piring to the position - of Senator, could be guilty of such a style of cam paigning, but all who heard him in Newton will testify that we have re ported him correctly.. v . .
