After having effected compromises of all cases pending against it in this county, as recently published, the Tallassee Power Company made a clean sweeo Jjy compromising all of the several casej pending against them in Montgomery county, where Aitr ftr*4t litigation in the noted “mos quito cases” was started. The Montgomery Herald, of Troy, in its last issue had the following story concerning the settlements there: “Judgments of compromise were docketed in all cases pending against the Tallassee Power Company in Montgomery county on Tuesday of this week. The cases settled were entitled as follows: “Richard Russell, Crete Russell, Veta Clodfelter, Bernice Russell, Marvin Mbulden, Fannie Russell, Celia Russell. Wade Russell, and Melvin Russell, heirs of Alex Rus sell, vs. Tallassee Power Co. “Mary Anu Russsell vs. T. P. Co. “Harrison Russell vs. T. P. Co. “A. A. Hill vs. Tallassee Power Co. “Harrison Russell, Mary Ann Rus sell. Roy Russell, Veleta Smith and WiHie Russell, heirs of G. W. Rus sell, vs. T. P. Co. / “W. D. Clodfelter vs. T. P. Co. “All Os the above named cases have been pending in the .Montgomery county courts for a number of months, and it will mean a great deal to the litigants that the cases have been compromised and settled. The civil courts here have become congested by reason of the damage suit that was tried here a year ago and which eon usmed all of the two-weeks term of civil court to try. It has not been learned just what amount is involved in the compromise, but its learned Chat all of the cases carry about Jthe same considerations. “These cases were brought by per sons living in the Beaver. Dam creek section of Montgomery counter against the Tallassee Power Company for damming up of the waters of Beaver Dam creek, which, it is Contended, caused the breeding of mosquitos, and the consequent spreading of malaria, which it is claimed damaged the health as well as the property of the plain tiffs. ~ “True case of Coggins et al vs. Tal lassee Power Company was tried in the courts here a little more than a year ago, and the verdict of the jury was that the power company had not damaged the health or the property of citizens living in that community, which verdict is said to have weighed heavily in the settling of the cases which went off the docket Tuesday.” Four Deeds Recorded Here Thursday Four deeds recording transfer of real estate in the county were filed in the court house Thursday as follows: B. W. Durham to Milas Pruett for <s4oo, property in No. 4 township. B. W. Durham and A. L. BroWn to H. C. Clawson for $275, property in Clineheart, Kannapolis suburb. Board of Education, of Cabarrus County to Lewis O. Boner for $275 property in No. 9 township. Dr. It. Frank FloWe to A. L. Brown for S4OO, property in Teeter town, suburb of Kanuapolis. } : —; Evangelistic Campaign. Kannapolis. Jan. 21.—Rev Char les E.

KIWANIS CELEBRATE FOUNDING OF CLUB Members Give Talks on Club Mean ings and Club Ideals.—Decide to Observe Ladies’ Night. Concord Kiwanians celebrated Fri* day the birthday of the international organization, founded eleven years, ago.

BABIN DAM NOW FULL “I Is Overflowing ,\Vitli Gates Open For Surplus to Pass Through. Stanly News-Herald. The big Budin pond is now . filled with water, and such a volume is pouring down the Yadkin that the spill-way dam is running over and two gates for the surplus to pass through. The fifth pot room was started Up Thursday morning and the remaining two mill open as soon as enough men can be secured to man them. This will come as a welcome piece of news to this section, as most of the big aluminum plant has been shut down since July. And when it is realized that the opening of a pot room gives to more thhn 70 men, it can be seen what the clos ing down of the entire plant means to /the town of Badin, as well as to the business interests of Albemarle. As a result of the recent rains all power curtailment has been lifted | and local textile plants are now all running on full time. So with all local industries running at full tilt, and with the big aluminum plant at Badin operating on full time, it can be seen that things will soon be hum ming in a. normal way in every de partment of business and industry in thi scouuty and the boom which has been predicted for some time, might well be termed near at hand- FOREST PRESERVATION. “One of the encouraging incujents of the New Year is revived interest in forest preservation—for that is the meaning behind the movement for establishment of the Smoky Moun tains National Park, now having pro motion in this section of the State. The success of this State enterprise seems assured. It is now being giv en renewed impetus through individ ual action, as witness the offer of Judge Finley of a free gift of a whole mountain top for preservation as a park, with prospect of additions that would make of it a territory of some Not only is there a determination to have the Great Smokies, but to flank it with individ ual parks in other pprts of the moun tain section. The Lo\ii«viUe Gorge sec tion and ( the Grandfather Mountain region are inviting prospective addi tions. It is time that the minds of the people of North Carolina should be turning more serioifidy to the mat ter of “conservation, because, in its forests, the State has an asset un- touched in any other section of the United States. “Dr. Isaac Lippincott, professor of economics at Washington University, recently delivered an address to the League of Women Voters at St. Louis, in the course of which he. contended that ‘the greatest economic problem of the d'ay is conservation of natural resources.’ This, he said, includes the preservation of soil against soil butchery, the improvement of rivers so that they can carry our share of domestic commerce, the control of floods, the restoration, of timber to the watersheds of the streams aiid wise measures for conservation of the labor supply of the country. “Accomplishment of these import ant ends Is the very object back of the park movement in North Caro lina and is submitted in explanation of the concern manifested by the pro motion of tfie movement. Preserva tion-of tfur forests is the main result sought, aside from establishment of permanent pleasure grounds.. The saving of our mountains is an at tainment eminently to be desired, and she importance of it is further mani fest in the that during the last 50 years the United States consurtfed more than 500.000,000 acres of tim ber. Her; replacements* have been about one-thirtf, for she extracts 30 eubie feet of timber with only an an nual replacement of 12 cubic feet. Oak and hickory trees are especially scarce.” i A Pig Track Over 80 Years Old. Stanly News-Herald- f Most of uk have-seen pig traeks, but few T of us have ever seen one made more then 80 years ago. v ßut the other Mr. M. M. Halm, of New LofiUon, Route 1 showed us a brick oh f which was a plain pig tnlck,and Tie says the old brick came from a chimney located bu place know’n to have been bui’.t mdre than HO years agio. The indenture is a very plain one and wtf* evidently made while she brick was still soft after it had been made. “If Venus Can beat that, tell him to trot out his ■pig track,” safd Mr. Hahn. THE COUGO&b TIMES JIMISON LICENSE 1 IS NOT PROTESTED B&rlicr Intimation* Not Made Good , in Formal Paper* to Court Clerk. Raleigh News and Observer. No protest have yet been received against the granting of a law license t by the North ‘Carolina Supreme Court to Tom P. Jimison, well known labor leader and former Methodist minister, who along with about 100 others has announced his intention of taking the law exami nation to be given by he Cctirt on Monday, February 25. Sometime ago informal suggestions of a protest were made to Edward C. Seawell, clerk of tile Supreme Court. Thus far, protests have not developed. The statement made in a report of certin protest lodged with the Su preme Court by this paper in the is sue of January 19, to the effect that Mr. Jimison was dismissed from the s Methodist ministry about a year ago faas incorrect. In accordance with Methodist custom, Mr. Jimison resigned from his pastorate at Spen cer and was given a unanimous vote of location. Prior to that time, Mr. Jimison was one of the sjbonuy petrels of the labor movement in v North Carolina. During the primary campaign be tween A. W. McLean and J. - \V. Bailey for the Democratic nomina tion for Governor, Mr. Jimison was among the speakers who chatnpained the cause Os Mr. Bailey.

Mr. Editor: In view of the agitation in regard to the naming Os the new hotel, 1 should like space to make a sugges t:on in the paper that it may prove helpful. Yesterday I was approached by a stranger, who said to me: “Please ; me where I can find the Cab-a-rns building.” We were standing in the shadow of the bell and for a moment I had the thought to point over my shoulder. This incident deepened my realisation of the fact that not half of the North Carolina people can pro : non nee the word “Ckbarrus” eorrectly. • I have heard Superibr Court judges holding court here mispronounce the word. What can you i expect of out -1 aiders ? If I had the naming of the hotel I f should call it “The Pioneer”—a word [ easy to pronounce. Let this hotel be a monument__to ( the fact that the people of Cabarrus have been PIONEER in tlie true sense. The FIRST church built be tween the Yadkin and Catawba riv ers was out here on Rocky River. The FIRST temperance advocate in North Carolina was old Johnny Rodgers— the first white settler. The FIRST apostle of independence was Alexan der Craighead, the pastor of that little church. The FIRST defiance of the King was the Black Boys’ powder plot. The •FIRST no fence law was here in Cabarrus. Charlotte missed a fine opportunity to honor Craighead when she chose the name Sehvyn, an English non-en tity, Instead of the great pioneer of liberty Craighead. We have a little monument to Craighead on the banks of Rocky River, why not call the ho tel “The Craighead?” MORRISON CALDWELL. Boy’s Money Making Scheme is a Failure. Baltimore, Jan. 21.—“ People who get hit with automobiles always get money.” riine-year-o!d Frank Oshef «ki argued with two chums when the trio found themselves down town and broke.
