THE Danbury Reporter. N. E. & E. P. PEPPER, Publishers. TERMS TO ANY ADDRESS : One year, sl, 6 mo. 50c., 3 mo. 25 MAY 10, 1906 OIVE US A JUDGE AT LAROE. There ought to be a law passed by the next General Assembly for the election of a Judge-at-large for the State of North Carolina, whose business shall be to fill va cancies in the court terms of the State caused by the illness or death of Judges, and whose mis sion shall be, moreover, to hold special termß of court when and where needed in the different counties. We understand that the constitution would have to be amended first, however. In our own county this week we are confronted with a situation wherein the above-mentioned rem edy would be applicable. The witnesses, jurymen and parties to the suits were kept waiting three days, and put to a great deal of expense, loss of time and worry because the only two available judges were sick. GOOD NEWS ABOUT THE R. F. D. LINES. The Postmaster General, in an examination before the committee of the Senate of which Senator Simmons is chairman, states that the report current that many of the R. F. D. lines are to be dis continued, is without foundation, and that it is the policy of the de partment to render the R. F. D. lines more efficient rather than to discontinue them. All of which is good news to our people. We are getting used to this method of getting our mail delivered at our doors daily, and we like it. Mr. Jas. Green, who is one of the leading workers of the R. J. Reynolds branch of the Tobacco Trust, was in town last week and stated that tobacco is going to sell high next fall because there is a short supply. Now is there really a shortage of the raw material, or does the Trust intuitively feel the breath of the gathering storm, and thus make friendly overtures. The provision in the constitu tion and by-laws of the Farmers Association that any officer or member who injects politics into the organization, shall be expelled, is wise. There shall be no poli tics in tbia great movement. It is born of the sufferings of the great mass of the North Carolina tobacco raisers. Its origin is right and its mission sacreci. Hundreds of the Reporter's readers and friends visited Dan bury this week. We wish we had the time and space to print all their names. When Quaker Gap takes a no tion, she does things. It is repor ted that the Farmers' Association at Francisco has 140 members and they are still a-jinin'. It was suggested by some of the crowd that Judge McNeill was playing sick because he dreaded to tackle the Stokes county roads. But whether the price of tobac co be high or low, you are going to need all the bread and meat you can grow, BO be wise. WALNUT COVE ELECTION. The "Unlucky" Municipal Officers— Professor Bagby Has Pneumonia, Roy Fair Up, Mrs. Davis Im proving ltems and Personals 0 f Interest. Walnut Cove, May B.—The chil dren with a crowd of young peo ple and older ones had their an nual picnic in the grove at the Episcopal church on Monday. Mrs. Nannie Fulton, Mrs. S. C. Rierson, and Mr. W. B. Vaughn chaperoned the picnicers. At 12 o'olook lunch was served, and was much enjoyed by all, especially the The afternoon was spent in hunting flowers to crown the May Queen.

When within seven miles of home it sickened and died in a few mo ments. Mre. Thomas Crews nee Miss Jane Samuel returned to her home at Durham, N. C. Sunday after visiting her sister, Mrs. J. A. Petree, several days. Wm. Lewellyn is out again. Dr. E. Fulp, Dell and Jack Tay lor and others spent Friday after noon and night over on Dan river fishing. They report a big time and a good catch. The many friends of Roy Fair were very much gratified to see him on the front porch Sunday. Prof. Bagby has pneumonia at Dr. A. G. Jones'. His sister is at his bedside. Mra. Jno. W. Davis, who has been confined with paralysis for sometime, was able to be carried on an invalid chair to spend the day with her son, Thos. W. Davis, Sunday. Dr. W. W.

Dr. Thos. Watkins, of Advance, came over yesterday afternoon. Pendleton Overby reports an egg apparently with two yolks, but when it was broken it contain ed one egg under the first shell, and inside another egg shell and all complete. The city election passed quietly yesterday. Ticket elected as fol lows: The unlucky ones are: A. S. Mitchell Mayor. Committeemen: C. T. Willis, R. L. Murphy and D. S. Boyles. Thos. Rothrock and J. G. Ful ton were lucky in that they tied and neither will serve as city fathers. J. Will East was elected consta ble. Increasing Business The Bank of Stokes County every week adds new depositors to its ledger. The people of Stokes county are patronizing it loyally. Many people who have never done any banking business before, especially farmers, are finding that running a bank account is not only nice and convenient and business-like, but that it saves them quite a good deal when they want to send money off any dis tance. Chattel mortgages, 1 dozen by mail to any address 10 cents Re porter office. DALTON. Dalton, May 6.—Mrs. Robert MeKinney, who has been visiting in Dalton for the last few weeks, will return to High Point Tues day. Mr. Colonel and Miss Ruby Hamm visited Mr. John Keiger's yesterday, also Miss Maud Coe spent the afternoon there. Miss Lula Shultz spent last Thursday and Friday in Winston. Miss May Ola Coe spent the greater part of last week at Pilot Mountain commencement. Re ports a noble good time, also fine exercises. Mrs. Jay Cook is very siok at this writing. Mrs. Hettie Coe spent yesterday with Mr. John Meadows. We are very glad to know he is improving some. Messrs. Frank James and Solly Stultz went calling last P. M. and returned sometime just before day this A. M. Guess the storm kept them out so late. Mr. F. G. Thomas was honored last Thurday with another fine boarder. Mrs. S. T. Keiger and Miss Flora Spainhower spent last Wed nesday in Dalton. Mr. Matt Phillips visited Pilot Mountain Friday and Saturday. KO-KOON. Death Of Mrs. Martha E. Pulliam. Martha E. Pulliam, maiden name Vanter, was born June 16th 1835, died May 6th 1906, aged 70 years, 10 months and 20 days old. She was married to Simeon S. Pulliam Aug. 15, 1852. Her hus band was killed at Fredricksburg, Va., Dec. 13, 1862. Thus she lived a widow 43 years, 4 months and 23 days. She lived a consis tent member of the Methodißt Church about 51 years. She leaves one son, three daughters, 26 grand children and 10 great grand children to mourn their loss. "Aunt Martha," as she was formerly known, was a prominent figure in the country for a great while. She will be much missed, not only by her children, but by a large circle of friends and ac quaintances, who sorrow not as those who have no hope. We doubt not that her soul is safe in the arms of Jesus. The body was laid to rest in old Mt. Olive ceme tery on the 7th inst. in the pres ence of a large crowd of relatives and sympathizing friends, burial services conducted by Eld. P. Oliver. May all her relatives be prepared to meet her in Heaven. P. OLIVER, King, N. C. NAW NorfolkiWesternU BCJIEDULE IN EFFECT DEC 3, 1905 Pally Daily Kx. Hun.
