IH - { 'Hi The Tuskegee Institute, hjoated in Hlabama, has just issued its yearly Beport concerning lynchings in the < Mnited States, and the report says fpiere were fifty-one negroes and six j f lift tv, people lynched in this country ;i s .wring seven than the hum* fejer reiHirted in 1021.’ To Texas goes of,'.-leading the entire ignited States witii ,18 lynchings: Ipeofgia is second with 11: Car tmina is not charged with any. I f One-third of the negroes put to j oath were charged with attacks on bjiiite women. Six of the victims Here burned to death. An interesting Bature of the report is that officers Mp the law’ i>revented lynchings in 14 , Instances in the South and in 14 in ■ \ ijaces in the North. In 10 instances penitentiary sen 7faces were secured against alleged f nchers. Li The fTuskegee Institute undoubted- H feels that it is accomplishing some Hod by publishing the lynching rec- L*"'ds of-The various States each year. II it we think the reports would do t| uj-e good.if the Institute first would V Ye the public its definition of lyncli | ig. In the report no lynchings are ilarged to other sections of the coun ty than the South. What does the fistitute call the slaying of the min ;®*s of Herrin, 111., who were strung up Mr their necks to trees? The Ilerrin S*ag©dy was one of the blackest in the history* of the United States. What finite has the Institute for such ac mon that it is not included among the .ll'nehing cases? In the past the In ilitute mgde no mention of the riots » Chicago and East St. Louis, where %>th whites and blacks were hanged. IWe are not. trying to defend the Filchings in the South, to be sure, for Jfcey were disgraceful and constitute ■ blot ou the life of tlie South, but the Huskegee report will never be taken Hriously so long as it gives figures on-1 | for the South. STREET QUESTIONS. H The aldermen have ordered Loan Hfreet, from Union to Church streets. Mud -Marsh street, from Union to [ttmrch Streets, to be paved. We hope ■>p work will be started at once, so [Kat the persons who are forced to Mse these streets will be btneiitted by Hie pavement this winter. The two iPtreets have been nothing more than ' mid holes each winter for years, and ' im money to be spent for their im rovement will be a fine investment, he paving of these two streets will ; elp the public generally, but it \\ ill i I e especially line for the children v. ho :C- f a>e. to use the streets ou their way ghb school each day. Under the pres- Hint system these children liaVe neitli- Br a cement sidewalk nor a paved Street to use between Buffalo and He lot Streets. I Ami if tlie aldermen can just get Home kind of a law on the hooks, and Hiefi.;get it enforced, to keep couipau |sß from tearing ui* the streets once Ifihey are paved, the street problem < BUre will lie almost settled. There are limes when the streets have to be cut |2|=fierlnips, but the city should *ee HfcaU they are properly and immedi ately repaired when the work has ®E*n completed.* There are holes in ilpoaie of the streets of Concord right „ tow that have been in the streets for eeks. Such'a condition should ne\- exist'again. It doesii t lake many moles to ruin a street. n U d.u fo \ 'much money to have the streets ruin-' ed by being recklessly abused. The aldermen will consider an or dinance covering . this subject in the near future, and we hope they will I>nss a law with teeth in it, and then see that it is properly enforced. BUSINESS GOOD. t Business and financial experts from every part of the United States pre dict that 1923 will be much better from a business and financial stand point than was 1922, though , last year turned out much better than was expected Gloom pervaded al most every industry at the beginning of 1922, yet before the year was gone, through wisdom and a more sane and conservative system of spending and saving, business picked up and at the fag end of 1922 everything was ip fair shape. The Manufacturers Record shows that “further increases in both produc tion and distribution were reported for November by the Department of Commerce. Mill consumption of cot ton for November totalled 577,561 bales, the largest for any month -since July. 1917. Exports of cotton also in creased to 858.337 bales, or over 8 per cent, of the entire crop. Further increases occurred in the production of pig iron, steel ingots, sinz, coke, loco motives and leather. Building con struction continues active, total floor Space of contracts awarded in Novem ber exceeding October. The transpor tation situation continued to improve, though railroads are receiving re quests.. for more than 100.000 cars a day which they cannot fill. Prices, both wholesale and retail, rose slight ly in November. One of the most sig nificant movements has been the in crease in the ‘-price-of. farm products and their improvement in relative .purchasing power.” Tlie:?entire outlook for 1923 is most encouraging, and business during the year sjiould be much better than it was In/1922. 11 ■ ■ i ■■■■■■ \j A WISE LEADER. John G. Dawson, the Speaker of the House of Representatives at the pres ent session of the General Assembly, gives promise of being a wise leader. He was selected Speaker of the House as payment for the fine service he has already rendered the State, and in his address upon accepting the speak ership be outlined policies which indi cate that he is to render still finer service. “What concerns us,” sjaid Mr. Daw son. "is that the tax burden shall not be too heavy and that it shall be just ly laid,” and he added, “but the people have a right to expect us to be cau tious and. while there must"be no back stepping. because it is neither wanted nor expected, we must be conserva tive, though not ultra.” Mr. Dawson was particular to stress the fact that there must be no back- ' stepping relative to the cave of our unfortunates, the education of our children or t-lie building of our good roads. We have made tine progress in each of these particulars and there is every reason to believe that we will make still more progress in tlie future. Mr/ Dawson has outlined a fine pro gram. We shall expect the solons to give him hearty co-operation. LIBRARY NEEDS HELP. Mrs. Richmond Reed, librarian for Concord's public library, is authority for the information that business at the institution is falling off because there are not enough new books to in- Jterest the large number of persons who desire'to borrow reading matter. Last year the local library led in the entire State in the matter of book distribution, but this year, unless the institution can get more money and purchase more books, some other li brary will win this honor. The children constitute the major ity, of the library readers in Concord, and Mrs. Reed states that she has been tumble to buy as many new booqs as the children need. "The children still visit the library, but we are not get ting any credit for their desire to read because we have no books to of fer them.” Mrs. Reed said. Several years ago the city increased its annual appropriation for tlie li brary, 'but the increase is not enough to keep the institution in books, and pay other expenses. Private donations tire still possible, it is pointed out, but they are no larger than they were sev eral years ago, while the scope of the library's work and influence lias great ly increased. ] [• Something should be done. We are ■ not familiar enough with the city’s ■ money to know just what apppopria i tion can be made, but we would like i to see some increase made. We would t also like to see individuals aud indus ? trial concerns, especially the cotton - mills, make larger donations, so that i the library would be in a position:to i do all the work that it is capable’of t doing, under the most favorable condi r tions. Employes of the cotton mills of - the city, and their children, make 7 j much use of the library, and we be ■> lieve th£ mills would be making a - X v -■ \ good investment if they subscribed .lib erally each year to the institution. COTTON MILL GROWTH. David Clark, editor of a textile pa per published in Charlotte, than whom there is no saner or wiser cotton mill statistician in the South, states that {during the year 1923, 550,000 addition al spindles will be In operation in North Carolina. Mr. Clark not only makes the prediction, he quotes figures to back his statements. While North Carolina is adding the additional half million spindles,\Mr. Clark points out, South Carolina will be adding about 110,000, with other Southern States showing an increase also. Some of the new spindles will l>e in new mills, now under construction, but most of them will be housed in mills already completed. They repre sent an addition to already well estab lished manufacturing concerns, and show what North‘Carolina cotton mill men cJtn do. A number of New Eng land manufacturers will open indus trial plants in the State during the next year, but iC is worthy of note that mofit of the increases will be in mills owned almost entirely by South ern capital and managed by Southern men. North Carolina and the entire Piedmont section for that matter, of fer ideal locations and conditions for the mills, as lias been pointed out many times in this and other papers, and in addition this section of the country offers many men who are capable of running tjie enterprises. Location, character of employes and climatic conditions have had much to do with the increase in the cotton mill industry in the Piedmont section, to he sure, but the character of the mill managers has also been a big factor in our industrial success. Gastonia, Statesville. Greenville, S. C\. and many other cities in the Pied mont section of North Carolina are making real efforts to land some of the new-cotton mills which are to he built in the South. What is Concord doing? Reports from Boston declare that New England capital is coming South. There is no hot ter city than Concord for cotton mills. We can gel some of them if tfe will go after them in the rigjft way. We would like to see the Merchant's’‘ Association put ou a de termined campaign to land some of these new enterprises for Concord. TWO C HARGED YYITIf DEATH OF ALLISON W. D. Baxter and Scctf Miller Are Served With Warrants Charging Felonious Slaying. Charlotte, Jan. 6.—Warrant charg ing W. D. Baxter and Scott Miller, deputy sheriffs of Lincoln county, with tlie murder of Fred Allison, who the deputies qlaim was shot I while running liquor, were served on them tonight, according to statement made over the telephonic by Solicitor IL L.

Meanwhile Durham is amazing ly busy; that city is going to ask the legislature to come eu masse to Dur ham. take, in the University and Trin ity, the Watts hospital and all the environs. The trjp will be finance*! by Durham people who are anxious to show what a call they have on such an institution as a medical school and hospital. The date for that junket has not been given, but it will be an nounced this week. Monday night’s conferences of trus tees and presidents will be the most interesting of recent moves. Hornets Buy Knapp to Play at Second, Charlotte, Jan. 7. —Hornets tonight closed' a deal with the Nashville club of the Southern association for sec ond baseman Chick Knapp. Charlotte paid a sum said to he between S6OO i and $750 for Knapp, who hlt .273 last year and led the league in fielding.

TTHE CONCORD TIMES f 1 s TRINITY’S BASKETBALL SEASON IS UNDERWAY First College Game Will Be With New berry.—Center for Team Needed. Durham, N. C., Jan. s.—With tlie first home game scheduled against Newberry College for Saturday night, Coach Burbage was yesterday still ex perimenting with his Trinity Cdllege basket ball lineup. Although his quint bowled the Winston-Salem Y. M- C. A over Tuesday night in a 49 to 26 seore. he is far from satisfied with Ills team. In Simpson and Spikes as forwards he has two of the streakiest players in the state. Brooks and Rich are : good guards, but as yet no outstanding contender lias come foreward for tlie center position.. Several contestants have been working hard for the place, hut they have not developed a speed ants drive that would keep them in tlie' class with the other members of the team. In the game with Camp Bragg just before the holidays Deal was tried at Ibis position. In Winston-Salem Tues day night, however. Spikes was used to good advantage in this berth. There are those who believe that Spikes may eventually he shifted from forward to center through sheer necessity. Several football men who liad not reported for practice before the Christ- holidays a re expected to strengthen Burbage’s squad within the next few days. Trinity students are hoping that there may be a dark horse center among these men. RECORD YEAR FOR PANAMA 2.997 Ships Used the ! Canal in 1922, Paying $ 12,5)3,407 in Tolls. Panama, Jan. s.—The passage of 2.997 ships through the Panama Canal in the calendar year 1922 established a new high record. In 1921. the best previous year, 2,811 vessels used the waterway. The tolls collected in 1922 aggregated $12,573,407, so that for (he first time sinje the opening of the canal the monthly average exceeds .$1,000,090. The net tonnage Os commercial ships was approximately 12,085,000. The Cargo 'carried- approximated 13.700,000 tons. The previous highwater mark for tonnage was 11,435,811 and for cargo 11.591),214. New York, Jan. 7. —At present writ ings cctton prices are at practically the same level ;ts a week ago. The predominating note in the week's con fused and irregular fluctuations has been one of impressive steadiness, and prices have withstood the e/tect of very unfavorable political develop ments in Europe, and continued and continued and heavy speculative sell ing and liquidation. Immediately fter the turn of the year, heavy con centrated selling appeared, probably a large part by important speculative interests who had carried cotton over the 1922 income tax period. Also, .-:ent'ment was somewhat adversely ffcctcd by the publicity given to figures showing that in every year during the last decade, the specula tive markets had suffered a very sub si antial slump during the month of January. It appeared, however, how ever, Ihat most of this selling was s&ing into trade hands without caus ing any material depression, and prices soon renewed the advancing sources tapered off. The fresh Ad vance, however, as met yesterday bJ ihe serious news that the Allied Paris Conference on Reparations had broken up in a dead lick. /The possi bility of m further serious economic ciisis in Europe as exceedingly dis couraging, and tlie only surprise was. that the recession which followed in most speculative markets was com paratively trivial. Tlie action of the cotton market has only served to em phasize the underlying stability and economic soundness of the existing level of prices. It would be foolish to minimize the serious possibilities of the present outlook in Europe. On the other hand, it is common knowledge that world supp/ies -'Of American cortton are inadequate to meet the • spinning demands until the new crop is avail able, unless the rate of takings is very materially reduced from that which has prevailed in the past six weeks. Tlie speculative markets aKc probably healthier for the liquidation of the past week, as tlie demand has been largely from the trade. We believe th,e immediate-develop ments in Europe will be. to some ex tent, a controlling factor,* but that (he market situation ffs sound and healthy. The European situation is exceedingly disturbing, but we believe that the situation calling for most concern is the possible inadequacy of the world’s supply of raw cotton. We think all probabilities point to higher prices later on in the season. GWATHMEY AND COMPANY. CLUBBING RATES.

SPECIAL SHORT COURSE IN COTTON GRADING Course Will Be Offered at State Col lege This Month. ''Raleigh, N. C., . Jan, 5.—A special short course in cotton classing will he offered at the North Carolina Ktate "College, It. li. Eause, of the United States department of agriculture, at Washington, having been detailed here, from January 8 to January IP, to take charge of instruction. Mr. Kause is from the preparation departmenf in the mpv cotton standards of the department of agri culture are being prepared. The new stands, it was stated, consist of nine white grades; three blue stains; two grays, tive spotted, six tinges, three light stains and three yellow stains, or tnirt.v-two in all. , “As this is a drastic* change, partic ularly on all colored cottons,' ‘ and as these new grades become effective Aug ust 5. 1023,” an official statement reads, “it is very important that as many farmers as can possibly arrange to at tend and to avail themselves of the opportunity of taking this course un der a cotton specialist who is prepar ing the new standards. “The course will consist of practical work in grading and stapling cotton and should give a very definite idea of what determines the various grades. The course will be free to all who de sire to enter. Beard and room can he obtained,at a reasonable rate near the college. “According to the 1020 census re port, the cotton crop in North Caroli na was valued at $177,074,743, repre senting 87)8,400 hales, and the seed } therefrom at $28,585,000. When these i figures are compared with the value of j all livestock in North Carolina for j the same year,/which was $111,205,- 213, and with tobacco, which was $151,-, 288,204, and with all cereals, valued at; $04,010,025, the importance of cotton to the farming industry of the state, can be better appreciated. "If the farmer can spare the time to familiarize himself with the factor that determines the grade of his cot ton and because of this knowledge handle his cotton in such way as to raise the grade from low middling to middling, the difference in value would be $5 a bale, at a low estimate. This multiplied by 858,400 bales would! increase the return over $5,000,000. . HEAD AMERICAN LEGION VISITS STATE IN MARCH Owsley’s Itinerary on Three Day Visit Includes Raleigh.
