This morning's Charlotte Observer con tains the following editorial, which we trust everybody within tlie "'sound of the voice” of The Tribune anti Times will read and then read again: ‘"Front page positions in the newspa pers are uot given to hews stories merely to please-an individual or a group of in dividuals—not. newspapers—- ‘but they are placed there because they are regarded in the newspaper office as the most important stories available at the time the front page must be closed. “Several factors are taken into consid eration in deciding which are the most important stories, chief of which are the questions: How many people will be in terested in them, not in the city of publi cation alone but taking all the readers of the paper everywhere into consideration ; how important is the personage or organi zation involved in the story: now "new is the news in the story, that is. is it the first "break or has it already ( been print ed in another newspaper, and did it hap pen since last issue of the paper or is it two or three days old? The idea is that the front page "shall carry the most im portant news of the day anil nothing but news that has not already been publish ed unless it is of such news value as to outweigh the fact that the main part of the story has been published. “The importance of. any piece of news on any particular day is only relative. One day there will be so much important news that many good stories that might ordinarily take front page position are crowded off to an inside page, while on other days important stories are so few that news of secondary importance is given first page position. “Another factor is the hour when the story is received. Sometimes a story that ranks almost with the biggest of the night becomes available so late that if must take secondary position, else be left out entirely, because there is uot time left in which to re-arrange the front page. “To newspaper men an this is academ ic. but occasional incidents suggest that many readers do n >r understand why cer tain stories ar«* placed on the front page, while other stories, of far more import ance from their viewpoint, are not.” The requests for position for various articles submitted or written in the office is one of the most annoying ones the man aging editor of a newspaper lias to con tend with. The paper necessarily must have some regularity of make-up. and the editor and not the reader, must be the one who decides where an article must be placed, due not only to the reg ular plan of the paper but to tin* exigen cies of make-up. Only recently a good friend complained that a certain local article in which lie was interested was uot given a position such as he de sired. “We put it on the local page,*’ we said. , “O. .no, you didn’t." he retorted, “it was on the second page." “Well, that is the local page.” was the reply. Please note: The tirst page is reserved for Associ ated Press news and such local news as are of sufficient general importance to be given a" feature heading. The second page is reserved for such local matters as arc of enough importance to be given single rn double headings, other than social or personal. The last -page is the “short local'’ page, or for local items which are pub lished without headings. Ou a six page paper the third page i; the page for social and personal items anil on an eight-page, paper these go on tin fifth page. Os course the requirements /of tin make-up at times may make it uecessarj to vary these general arrangements Please, •' friends, when you submit any thing for publication do not ask us 0 put it on any particular page. • IS N■ successful season.

DARK CELLS AND MI ZZLE TAKE PLACE OF FLOGGING Three-Year Man Just Out Says Con ditions Have Improved Even Them Raleigh News and Observer- Dark cells in which men are chained to the floor in solitary confinement on a twelve-hour ration of six soda crack ers and a pint of water have taken the place of the leather strap in the Hali fax county prison farm, and some men have been kept thus, for violation of thi rules, for sis long as a hundred and seventy-hours. This is the story W. .T. Latham, of Richmond county, who has just com pleted a three-year prison sentence for making whiskey,, told The News and Observer “For my part, I’d take the leather any day.” said Latham, a powerfully built, middle-aged man who claims that his own term passed without the strap or censure. “That's what those who have been th rough t it say, too,” lie added. The cells, according to Latham, art in a building formerly used for a hospi tal. There are eight of them now and preparations are afoot to build more. I They are six feet long, wide enough to accomodate a man’s body and high enougfT for a mail of little more than the average height to touch the ceiling by standing on his toes. A mere wisp of light and a lint of ventilation come through slats at the top. Inside, the floors and the walls are ceiled smoothly and the hard floor must serve for a bench and bed. An opening in the door, just big enough to allow a pint cup of water to be shoved through, is kept securely closed except twice in twenty four hours when six soda crackers and a pint of water are thrust into tlie cell. Leather Muzzle. Hanging on tin* wall by a peg. to b< seen of all who enter tin* house, is a leather muzzle, a home-made affair that strap? across tin* face and locks be hind the head, clamping a wad of sheep's hide securely over the mouth. With this on. a man may breath through liis nose, but he can neither open his mouth nor sjienk. The cells are used almost constantly, according to Latham, aud it is not un usual that several times a week all eight of them are full. The State farm, lie says, now lias a prison population of about 200. A and B Grade prisoners under (’aptain Rhein and (’ Grade under Captain Tom Peebles, who lias a reputation so effective handling of desperate men. “I never knew the muzzle to be used but qiiee." said Laliani- “Lester Kenan got it. Lester was serving five years and was sent down to Captain Peebles' camp from the Central Prison. They thought lie had something to do with a letter that was sent out. While Kenan, with some other prisoners, was being moved on the train one of the men made a re mark about a guard who was standing at the door of the car with bis back 1 turned- The guard reported Kenan but 1 later told Captain Peebles that lie might have been mistaken about Kenan having been tin* one who made the remark. He said that when he looked around Kenan was laughing and at tin* time In' thought Kenan was the man. Anltow. Captain Peebles ordered Kenan to the dark cells. After he was put in the cell, Kenan said something about want ing to know why lie was treated that way. They jerked open the door and put the muzzle on him. “The muzzle might have been used |Oii others. Kenau is the only one I know about." Last Labor Day. eighteen prisoners at work ou the dykes, went on a strike for Labor Day holiday, according to Latham? Captain Medlin was in charge of them. When they refused to work he told them that they would be sent to Captain Peebles’ cam]). Twelve of them decided to go back to work but six stuck it out, were sem over to Camp No. 1 over which Captain Peebles pre sides. and were thrown in the dark cells. Some of these men wen* kept in the cells as long as a hundred and seventy two hours. Latham said. Six Soda, Crackers Now- Formerly, according to Latham, tin* dark cell, solitary confinement ration was one soda cracker and a pint of water twice a day. Now these prisoners get six crackers and a pint of water. When they are released, they are al lowed to eat as much as they wish. Frequently, it is afterwards necessary for them to go to the hospital or so take medical treatment. The limit of confinement without special permission of the Superintendent i of the State Prison is twenty-four hours. J At 1 in* end of twenty-four hours. Latham says, the prisoner is taken out. his pulse examined by a physician. Dr. Orr. who lives midway between the two camps on the Ilaliftx farm, and a tele gram is sent to the prison superin tendent for permission to continue the* confinement if the supervisor wishes. There is food in abundance at the farm, according t<» Latham, who says that much is wasted because of poor cooking. A vegetable garden there grows enough to supply four such camps and the chief lack in the food is in the preparation and the variety. And yet, afer IV/t years. Latham dec’ares conditions are much improved. Although no strap has ever touched his shoulders he worked both at'Wadeville and at Topton road construction camps when the whip was used frequently. “I have seen some men get us many as twenty-four licks in the same spot," he said. "I have helped to pour warm water on a man who hail been beaten the night before to loosen his clothes from liis raw flesh. Most of those who were whipped were weakly fellows who couldn't move twelve yards of dirt a day. That was what tin* contract called for. When a man didn't move liis twelve yards, lie was reported by the con tractor's man and he got a beating. I was strong and husky. I could move my twelve yards. “I haven's anything to say against Captain Peebles or anybody eke for the way they* treated me. Captain Peebles | didn’t show me any favors but he didn’t do me any harm. The only tiling I've got to say against Captain Rliem is that he ' shows too much favoritism to liis ’ ? 1 * ■ ; negroes. Prison Self-Government- An indefinite sort of prison seif ' government, according to'Latham has * grown up on the prison farm since the ’ recent agitation. “We found out that somebody on the outside was interested in us,” was the Avay he explained it. “gome of the long ;THE CONCORD TIMES timers, men who had been in raison f° r four, five or six years, took hold of things. Now, when they see a fellow about to get in trouble by breaking some prison rule, they get hold of him. talk to him aud keep do wit the trouble. Ttr that way they don’t g*t to the authori ties for punishment.” It-was his estimate that infractions of the prison discipi he. s*:y.e Tim abolition of the whip and the formation of this unofficial self-government system among the prisoners, have been reduced seventy-five per cent. “No, we didn’t have any officers and didn’t have any name for that sort of thing. Wc just sort of got together our selves. The supervisors don’t know any thing about it,” he declared. Since the order for the abolition of Hogging, Latham said, the whip has not been used to liis knowledge and Cap tain Peebles who used to curse and -wear at, his prisoners freely has stop ped this practice. Some of the guards still curse the men, he declared. Latham was particularly apprecia tive of the work that is being done in Camp No. 2, of which Captain Rhem is supervisor, by the religious workers of Scotland Neck. They hold services in rln} camp every Sunday. Captain Peeb les. be said, doesn't allow them to come to his camp. Puts Murder in the Soul. “The whole system of treating prison ers is wrong.” said Latham, looking back over his past three years. "It puts murder in a man's soul as soon as the cell door closes on him. It be gins when he sees the jailer pass by the telephone without even a look at it when lie has promised the prisoner to Telephone bis wife or liis kinfolk about his arrest. And it keeps up. with a piling up of these little things which mean he hasn’t any human rights, all j tin* way through prison. - “Judge Finley sentenced me to three c*'ars in Richmond county for making 4quor. I plead guilty. I thought it was too hard a sentence but Judge Finley is a fine man and haven't a word to say about it. I took my medicine and it's all over. "1 was raised in a whiskey-making country and was helping around a still when T was eleven-years old. Later I moved to Richmond county and was making an honest living working on the farm. Then they got to tempting me? Some folks thajt had more money than I did. knew T understood how to make rood liquor. They persuaded me to make some. I made two or three runs a year for some of the rich folks. 1 thought they were going to stick to me. T was hard working, had a good character. 1 never dreamed even when I plead guilty that they would send me to the prison. "‘But they did. anil now I want to help enforce the prohibition law. And the first thing I want to say is that you can’t make a dry county as long as voii've* got wet officers. Yesterday, Latham with the remains of $57.40 commutation money, and liis discharge slip.* went back to Richmond !county where liis wife and iourteen year-old boy live. Why Worry in Business? Advertise. Philadelphia Record. Advertising has its important share in business prosperity. Tliics is not an aca demic view but is the seasoned opinion of John G. Jones, vice president of the Alexander Hamilton Institute, of New York. “If people are thinking iu terms of hard times.” said Mr. Jones, "you will get hard times. If everybody is talk ing good times we are more than likely to have prosperity. The liberal adver tising of leading firms and industries in recent years has been a powerful fac tor in restoring and increasing business. It is one of tlie most effective things in preventing panics and Busi ness conditions are depndent upon de mand : advertising increases demand. “What the newspapers make us want soon become our necessities. L was so with the automobile, which has been re sponsible for the largest increase in ad vertising and luts become an important factor in the increase in the entire coun try’s business. The development of civi lization has been the story of the develop ment of advertising. “The next few mouths look bright be cause business men believe conditions are sound and "ill continue sound. If the advertisers of this country keep telling tin* people their story, keeping up the demand for our manufacturers, we shall not have to worry about the continuance of good business.” Death of Mr? John Kestler. Mrs. AY. A. Overcash received a mes | sage from Waco. Texas. Monday night announcing the death in a hospital at that place of her brother. Mr.\ John Kestler.

One day last week a prosperous look ing gentleman was accosted on the high way by two friendly strangers, one of whom pleasantly inquired, “How is busi ness V” His reply was, “It’s fine; its fine.’’ Rut lie had nc time for details, for the strangers in a very systematic way showed him their guns and relieved him of his ready cash. While other sec tions of the country report a reduction in retail trade due largely to the mild weather, Philadelphia reports a volume of retail trade quite without precedent, and the buying of pig iron on a scale re minding one somewhat of the activities of last Spring. Reports to Dun’s show that there is still 11 heavy distribution of merchan dise, as indicated by car loadings, and there are other evidences that a big butsi uess in the aggregate is being done. Yet. the .disposition to operate only as the need arises remains sharply defined, and curtailment of production has continued lat not a few plants. The industrial feature of the week has been the buying movement in pig iron. I which is estimated by The Iron Age as amounting to 1100,000 or GoO.OOO tons in six days, approximating the total pro duction of merchant furnaces for the whole month of October. "As there has been no important buying movement in pig iron for more than half a year, the significance of the large present pur chases is taken as a favorable sign for the turn into the new year. Secretary Mellon's proposals for tax reduction are accepted by business and financial i.nter ♦ ( -ts generally as an effectual bat* to bonus legislation: but it will not pre vent further agitation, which will con tinue until a showdown comes in the December session of Congress. Building operations have gone on with but slight recession, continued mild weather being a favoring factor. Pittsburgh's market in steel-making iron has not been 00 active as the mar ket for foundry iron. The large turnover in ]>:g iron was facilitated by price con cessions on the part of some furnaces, but in the Chicago district furnaces have marked up asking prices .*>o cents to sl. Steel mil loperatidns continue to taper off slightly. The probability of a mild buying movement in steel products is hinted 'at. but js not definitely predieted. lit the textile trades the retailer’s' hostile attitude toward price' advances has been a feature of the past week's developments. In the primary markets the rise in raw cotton brought about higher prices in unfinished cotton goods, leading t > a lessened demand and fur ther mi }]/ curtailment, with the growing complaint of inability to operate at a profit under existing conditions of high raw cotton and resistance to higher prices for unfinished fabrics. The Jiome and foreign wool markets continue firm. The buying abroad for the American .trade has been largely in the finer fleeces. Texas* sales seem to have been for the dealers, the mills not being yet ready for new .supplies. In the Chicago grain market liquida tion in December wheat was light?:, and the nearby deliveries showed light gains. The. sentiment of the market will be show when it becomes known whether the new Congress menus to “do something for the farmer.” Opinion among the operators as to corn .seems tixed. some traders looking for May corn to sell at 00 cents while cyther's predict SO cents. May now being about midway between these estimates and Flagg’s Cotton Letter. New York. Nov. 20.—The market to .V. 1;ls s hown a fine undertone and tair y heavy selling has apparently been easily absorbed by good trade buying and the replacement of speculative lines. The easy manner in which the Decem ber notices were handled, reports from Manchester and Worth street showing a big business being done, and better spot advices, had an encouraging iii.fuuence 011 the market. Further price-fixing was still in evidence which added consider ably to the strength of the market and until this class of buying shows signs of slackening reactions of any groat 1 proportions are not expected. POST AND FLAGG. The peanut is considered to be a na tive of Brazil, whence it was introduced into Europe shortly after the discovery of South America, and from there it lias been carried by man to nearly all warm climate throughout, the world.

Concord testimony has been published to prove the merit of Doan's Kidney Pills to others in Concord who suffer from bad backs and kidney ills. Lest any sufferer doubt this evidence of merit, we produce confirmed proof—statements from Concord people who again endorse Doan's Kidney Pills—confirm their for mer (testimony. Here's a Concord case: Mrs. Lillian Mclntyre, 131 Franklin Ave., says: “I suffered from a dull ache iu my back and sometimes the pains were knife-like when I stooped and almost took my breath. I had dizzy spells and specs came before my eyes. I was all run down and felt tired. My head ached and I was nervous, too. My ankles bleated and my hands puffed up. My ; kidneys ( were weak, I heard of Doap's Kidney Pill* and < i psed / 5 them. My back felt like new and wy kidneys were regulated.” (Statement given May 10. 1018.) On January 23, 1022, Mrs. Mclntyre added: “Doau’t have never failed to help me when my kidneys have troubled me.” 60c. at all dealers. Foster-Milbura ,Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N.

Before they began to throw the dirt in on the box, ( the Irish man counted out a hundred dollars ami dropped it in the grave, which l\e said would help to bear the friend's expenses to the better world. The .Tap did like wise. The Jew counted his money and found that he did not have a hundred dollars, but to show that lie was no cheap sport he wrote a check for three hundred dollars, went down in the grave and got the two hundred that the other two had put in, placed it iu his pocket and dropped in hig check.
