GOliDSBOUO, N. C, WEDNESDAY, JUKE 23, 1909. VOL. XXTV. NO. 51), STIRRING CONTESTS FOR SEflATOBSHIPS Terms of Thirty Members Will Expire 3, 1911 SOME IHTERESTIH6 POLITICS Iiosereirs Name Mentioned to Suc ceed Bepew Many Dem ocrats Will Be He- "" ; Elected. Washington, 1. C, June 21. Be tween now and MireU 3, 1911, stirring contests for United States senator ships will be held in many states. The terms of thirty members of the Senate will expire on that date, and among them are some of the most in fluential members of that body, on the Democratic side as well as on the Re publican. , Ohio and Indiana promise to fur nish the liveliest .fights and added in terest will be given the contest in the Buckeye State If ex-Senator Foraker decides to enter th lists against Sena tor Dick, who will be a candidate for re-election. Senator Beveridge, of Indiana, is believed to have a big con test on his hands to secure re-election. Former Senator Hemenway is known to entertain a strong desire for Beveridge's seat and there is also a possibility that former Vice-President Fairbanks may get into the con test. Not the least interesting of the sen atorial contests that will be settled before March 3, 1911, will take place in Connecticut. Things political in that state are already Heing framed with a view to sending Senator Mor gan G. Bulkeley down to defeat. Sen- ator Bulkeley has been the Republi can boss of Connecticut for many years, but within the past few years a strong revolt "has been organized to bring about his downfall. The anti machine Republicans have been gain ing strength and the Senator undoubt edly will have a hard fight to return to Washington. Senator Hale, of Maine, the "Father of the Senate," will be returned. He has some opposition, but this is ex pected to fade away before the time comes for the eelction. The same may be said of Senator Aldrich, of Rhode island, who will finish thirty one years of continuous service in the Senate when his present term expires in 1911, and who undoubtedly will be sent back for another six years. -Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts, may find his re-election more difficult than his colleagues of Maine and Rhode Island. Until several months ago it looked as though he would have smooth sailing, but Representative Butler Ames has been going over the state with a fine tooth comb in an ef fort to groom men for the legislature who will pledge themselves to vote against Lodge. Senator Depew, of New York, will not be returned to the Senate. It is doubtful even if he will consent to be a candidate for re-election. New York already is speculating on the question of his successor. The name of Mr. Roosevelt has been frequently men tioned in connection with the senator- ship, but those who stand closest to the ex-President are of the opinion that he will not engage in a fight for the honor. Former Governor Frank Black, Hon. Joseph H. Choate, Timo thy Woodruff and several others have been mentioned. ; Other Republican senators whose terms will expire in 1911 are Clark, of Wyoming; LaFollette, of Wiscon sin; Scott, of West Virginia ; Piles, of Washington; Page, of Vermont; Suth erland, of Utah; Oliver, of Pennsyl vania; McCumber, of North Dakota; Kean,"of New Jersey; Nixon, of Ne vada; Burkett, of Nebraska; Carter, of Montana; Warner, of v Missouri; Clapp, of Minnesota; Burrows, of Michigan, and Flint, of California. On the Democratic side the senators whose-, terms will end March 1911 are Daniel, of Virginia, who is assured of re-election without opposition ; Money, of Mississippi, who will be succeeded by John Sharp Williams ; Culberson, of Texas, who probably will be re-elected ; Frazier, of Ten nessee; Taliaferro, of Florida, and Rayner, of Maryland. .

After a Month of Silenee and Note Taking He Gives Hte .Observations and Opinions. ; r ''' Greensboro, N. C,,' June . 19. I have not written since May ,22, because there was nothing new to say. The entire range of fluctuations in ' this period amounts to about 30 points in the fall months. ...-V.-J -':-''" -- The crop in Texas has shown won derful improvement and the weather there has been very fayorable"and the stands are good. The crop, however, started from fifteen to fifty days, late and favorable weather is needed J for the rest of the season tor this state to completely recover and make a full yield. - . . ; . . Oklahoma is fair to good. Arkan sas has had too much rain in sections, but is doing well. Louisiana, Missis sippi and Alabama have had too much rain and the crops in these states are backward at least two weeks,, and grassy; and if dry weather does not follow we will soon hear of consid erable abandonment of acreage. In Georgia conditions are better, but too much rain has fallen and the crop is late probably vten days. North and South Carolina, are pretty well described in the Georgia report, except that in the past , few lays heavy and continued rains have fallen in the greater portion of both states. These washing rains not only injure the lands and the growing crops, but they large nullify the value of commercial fertilizer and prevent the crop being cleared of grass. We are receiving some reports from the Carolinas that are indeed very gloomy. The condition of the crop as a whole is far from satisfactory. In regard to trade there is marked Improvement all over the world, and the consumption of cotton is very full. There is a feeling of optimism, and a belief that a period of good times is not far ahead. The thing preventing an outburst of prosperity more than ail others, is the high price of food as everything traded in on the Chicago board of trade - is fetching corner prices, which so increase the cost of living that the buying power of the masses is largely curtailed. . After the market basket is filled with meat at the highest prices seen in fifteen years and bread at about the highest prices ever known, there is not much left to buy anything else. - The various forms of money in cir culation in the United States in 1896 was $1,521,000,000; now it is $3,108, 000,000, and the gain from June 1 last year to the present is $72,000,o5o. The leading captains of industry express confidence while industrial develop ment, and railroad expansion .receives encouragement from the leading pow ers of finance. The world admits the need of a crop of cotton which the present . prospect does not promise to furnish. Under the circumstances, it does not seem reasonable to expect any material de cline In the near future, even though crop prospects should Improve. J. E. LATHAM. P. S. There is some business doing from day to day in prompt shipments, also in shipments extending up to January. If you have anything to buy or sell, would like to negotiate with you. Yours truly, -V J. E. LATHAM. ' Read Your Bible. If there be any who have been be queathed a large and imposing Bible we hasten to advise a very careful reading of the same without delay. Read the reason for this advice. Thirty-five years ago in Fairfield, N. J., a venerable lady, Mrs. Sarah March, departed this life. Among her bequests was a ponderous copy of the Scriptures, bound in leather and with a brass clasp, which she left to her nephew, Steve March. The. latter never opened the book until a few days ago, when he found $4,867.30 be tween the leaves. Steve, no doubt, felt like the cents figures in that cash amount when he found the long undiscovered treasure, but it is safe to bet there are now no unturned leaves In his Bible. There is always something in store for those who open their Bibles, and if not Steve's cash there may still be found something better, for in it are the words of "eternal life."

Watkins took' as his theme the principles of the order." He outlined the fundamental principle, that of separation- of the" state from ' the church, and told of the great battle to be fought during the next twenty-five or fifty years, . within this nation, whereby the church would' gradually creep into state affairs. This is the great principle of liberty and 6ne that will be difficult to solve. Another great principle of this or der, which stands for liberty, is the free educational institutions, which are springing up all over the country, the free graded schools. The Juniors have always promoted education, which means so much in our form of government. J . t Rev. 'Watkins was complimented for this powerful sermon- upon the doc trines of the fundamental principles of the Junior Order. THANKS, BROTHER MINTZ. Kind Words for Aoldsboro From the . Editor of Our Esteemed County Con temporary. V . Mr, Fred. R. Mintz, the broad-gaug ed editor of the Mount Olive Tribune, who is highly esteemed in'Goldsboro, has the following nice things to say of our city in this week's issue of his excellent paper;:. "The election in Gcddsboro Monday for a bond issue of $150,000 for street and sidewalk improvements was car ried by a large majority. This is a great stride forward, one that means larger things for the future of that progressive and , rapidly developing city. By thisact the people of Golds boro have shown that they, have faith in the future of their town, and that they are determined to take advantage of every opportunity that Insures fu ture development and progress. The growth and development of Goldsboro in recent years has been really remarkable, all of which is due not alone to the natural , advantages of the town but to the unconquerable optimism of its splendid citizenship, who believe, as they should, that 'there is no place like home." "And in passing it is well also to say that very much of the credit for Goldsboro's recent development from a material standpoint is directly at tributable to the work done by the newspapers of the town. For years they have been preaching the doctrine of progress and aggressiveness, lay ing the foundation for future develop ment such as was realized in the bond election Monday." ' . - : u. "STRUCK IT RICH." Ben. W. Southerland Has One Hun dred and Fifty Acres In Potatoes. The Mount Olive Tribune, published in this county's progressive south border town, has the v following item in this week's issue that will be read with interest throughout the wide cir culation of The Argus: "The shipment of Irish potatoes this week from this point has been quite large, and quantities cont'nue to go forward to the Northern markets every; day. On some trucl: farms the yield" is up to the usual st in lard, but in the maojrity of cases it is not So gooid. The truckers, however, are well satisfied with the season's bus! ness so far, prices having ranged from $2.50 to $3.00 per barrel in fact, the nicest of them have made good money on their potato crop.

Through streets thronged with cheer ing thousands, the famous- aviators rode this afternoon in one of the greatest parades this city nas ever witnessed. Enthusiasm was the key note of-" the"7 monsterdemonstration. W4th waving flags, and colors flash ing everywhere, -the two Daytonians who brought such high honors back with them from across the seas, we given an ovation that surprised even ' the affair. - : In the great parade the State of Ohio was 'represented by- her governor and other high officials and' by two regiments of - national guardsmen, whiles the city showed its official favor not only in declaring the day a pub lic holiday but in decorating, the city buildings from 'pit' to roof with the national colors and banners bearing inscriptions appropriate to the occa sion. JiJ addition to the soldiers the parade' included many civic organiza tions- and children of the public schools, The procession was viewed by the Wright 'brothersl from a large review ing stand' -In the downtown section. Occupying seEs with them were their sister, Miss Katherine Wright, . their father," Bishop Wright, and their brother," Laurin Wright, who Ig en gaged with them in the manufacture of their aeroplanes. Representatives of the state and city, members of the Aero Club of America and a number of other invited guests also occupied sgats on the stand. Earlier in the day Wilbur and Or ville Wright had been presented with the medals, one voted by an act of Congress and the other by the Ohio legislature. The presentations took place at - the county fair '"" grounds, where many thousands of persons gathered to witness the exercises. Presentation speeches were made by Governor Harmon, of Ohio, and Mayor Burkhardt, of Dayton. - ; ;'"- The several features of the dixy's program were witnessed by thousands of visitors who flocked Into the pity from far and near to join with the cit izens of Dayton in doing honor to the famous young inventors of the aero plane.. Every appearance of the Wright brothers in public was' greet ed with enthusiastic cheers. The" varmfh of the demonstration for once penetrated the natural reserve of. the noted aviators, and their smiling faces plainly indicated fulrappreciation on heir part. - - NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING. It Is the Only Sane and Safe Method of Reaching the Intelligent Public. To al who have studied the ques tion it is a clear proposition that ad vertising through the medium of the newspapers is the most effective way to reach the public. '. - "The futility of circular advertising as compared with newspaper adver tising is proved in a dozen different ways," says the Findlay (Ohio) Re publican, "but in none more forcibly than In the fact" that Findlay firms that expend a part of their advertising money, In this way are now and have veen for more than a year sending, cir cular announcements to persons who iave been dead as long as that. . "A Findlay young" woman whose vusband has been dead several years a constantly receiving . advertising natter addressed to him, much mail :f this description bearing a two-cent stamp. .;'.;--, "People . who can read at all read f he newspapers. If they cannot read hey are not likely to be valuable cas- omers.

F, W, Tatem, local agent of the Norfolk & Southern Railroad, an nounced Monday ; morning that the Norfolk & Southern had decided tQ en ter the union station here Tuesday morning, Sa the first passenger train to depart from this depot on the Nor folk & Southern left here yesterday morning at seven o'clock and the first to arrive at the new station was at 11:45 Tuesday morning .This action of the Norfolk & South ern will be greatly appreciated by the traveling public, ..; -The following is a letter made pub lic Saturday: -1 That this had: been agreed to was announced Saturday to the North Car olina Corporation Commission by Mr. B. T. Lamb, general manager of the company, who also sent a telegram to Attorney-General T. W. Bickett, dated at Wilmington, N. C., which reads as follows: . ' . ' : . "Your letter of June 7 to Mr. Woll- cott. Am glad to advise you we have today completed arrangements for our entrance into Goldsboro union station. We will begin operation to and from that station Tuesday as soon as we can get our tickets, tariffs, etc., in the hands of the joint ticket agent and have him properly instructed as to the sale of tickets toand from points on our line." , This agreement of the Norfolk & Southern Railway ends the contest about entrance into' the union depot at Goldsboro. As soon as the receiv ers wid Mrv Lamb . learned that a North Carolina law was being dis obeyed they agreed to enter the depot at Goldsboro, which means that the Norfolk & Southern Railway will ob serve its obligations to the Southern Railway and the Atlantic Coast Line in paying its part of the $105,000 which the depot cost. The union depot was ordered by the North Carolina" Corporation Commis sion, and after litigation the site was fixed as agreed on by the three rail roads. Then the Norfolk &, Southern went Into the hands of receivers. It was then held that the Federal Court had to agree to the payment of the Norfolk & Southern's part of the de pot cost, and the matter was held up. The Atlantic & North Carolina Rail road was cited by the Corporation Commission to say why it should not be made a party to the suit to be started against the Norfolk & Souths era, which had leased the Atlantic & North Carolina, tj compel it to enter the Goldsboro depot. The Atlantic-& North Carolina said that its lessees should attend to this matter, and the lease of the Atlantic & North Carolina was held to obligate the lessees to. obey the laws of North Carolina, and the decisions of the Corporation Comr mission. In settlement of all these matters the Norfolk & Southern now agrees to enter the union station 'at Goldsboro and the case ends. v ,. - - -- WORLD WIDE BARACA AND PHO-ATEA IN SESSION S jM'cial .Serv'.ces in All the Ch u relies - of Ashei 11 le Sunday. . .

Settled by Compromise- On the land of Mm, John Robert Smith, In Indian " Springs township, Sunday morning about seven o'clock Deputy Sheriff John A. Toler and Po liceman Jack Fulghum, of this city, came upon and captured a moonshine still, for which they had been search ing the vicinity during most of Satur day night, but owing to' the darkness were unable to get their bearings un til daylight. . " There was but one man at the still when they approached it, and he heard them, coming through the bush es.in time to get out of shot range and escape. They got close enough to him in the chase to see that he was bald lieaded, as he ran with hat in hand. After giving up the chase, which was- In a thick swamp they returned to the still, which they cut up and brought to this city, and turned out about 200 -gallons of beer just ready for distilling. It- is presumed that the moonshiner was getting ready to nre up for a quiet Sunday run when the officers came upon him, as the still was cold at that time. In this connection Jack Fulghum tells a good one on Sheriff Toler. They were stealthily reconnoitering the dense swamp In the darkest, hour of the night, Fulghum in the lead and Toler holding on to his coattail, lest they might get separated, and could not call to one another for fear the moonshiner would hear them. Sud denly, Jack says, Toler gripped his shoulder like a vise, and bringing his lips close "to his ear whispered excit edly and with a tremor in his words, "St st stop, Jack, younder they are!" ' , "Where?" "whispered Jack back to him, with a spooky feeling creeping up his spine. - i . "Don't you see their lantern right ahead of you yonder?" "Where ?" again queried" Fulghum'. "Right yonder! Don't you see that light;" Just then a lightning bug that had been airing his wings on the-limb of a tree just in front of them flew away and all was darkness. "There," again whispered Toler, they've heard us and put it out." Jack insisted that It was nothing but a lightning bug and Toler insisted tBat it was a moonshiner's lantern, and they finally- compromised' by mu-' tually agreeing to desist from further search till daylight, ' each being in wardly glad that the other would not be convinced.

New York, June 20. Leon Ling, with his string of English-Chinese aliases and his American clothes may never be found, - but the mutilated body of the New York girf left in a trunk in his room here will not be buried in potter's field. Paul Sigel, the father, claimed and positively identified the body at the morgue to night, admitting for the first time that the victim was his daughter, Elsie The girl's mother, now in a sana torium, had previously Identified the jewelry; another woman had ident ified the underclothing and relatives had said that the murdered girl was Elsie Sigel, granddaughter of Gen eral Franz Sigel. This afternoon he visited the morgue, accompanied by Franz Sigel, a brother, and Reginald, a son, and by Mabel Sigel, a cousin of the vic tim. It was almost dark when the little party reached the silent house of the city unclaimed dead. There were no tears but their faces were strained and pale as they en tered the gloomy morgue. First the clothing on the body was examined by; Mabel Sigel. - "Elsie," said the girl, as she exam ined it, "used to wear a peculiar white-headed pin." ' A detective ran his fingers through the clothing and in a moment held up a white-headed pin. Mabel Sigel nod ded. "Elsi wore that," she said. Af ter a moment she was sure that the clothing was that worn by her cousin. The party passed into the dead room where the body lay in a long coffin like drawer. Amid silence the com partment was drawn out. The face was first uncovered and the teeth ex amined. The father was silent, but Mabel Sigel was .quick to note the " teeth. "Those are Elsie's teeth," she said, "and her hands, too." Paul Sigel nodded his head affirmatively as each new 'feature was brought out to strengthen the identification. "Are you satisfied in every way of the accuracy of the identification?" the father was asked. , "I am satisfied," he said in a broken voice, as he was led away. Franz Sigel made arrangements for the immediate removal of the body and for the funeral. AEROPLANE TRIALS THIS WEEK. Arrangements Have Been Practically Completed. Washington, D. C, June 21. The official trials of the Wright aeroplane, which were brought to an abrupt end last September by the .accident in which ' Lieutenant Selfridge, of the Signal Corps, was killed, .will be re sumed this . week. Arrangements to this end have, been practically com pleted. ' f It is probable that both of the Wright brothers will engage in the tests. Under the government speci fications, the aeroplane must carry two persons - having - a combined weight of about 350 pounds, and suffi- -cient fuel for a trip of 125 miles. - Every one interested in aeronautics awaits eagerly the distance test, which will be the first of its kind un dertaken by the Wrights. They will be required to make a flight in a straight. line not less than five miles in length. One way they must go with the wind and on the other they must fly against the wind. The flight will be made over a prescribed course, from Fort Myer to Alexandria. The aeroplane . must have a speed of at least forty miles in still air, but will be accepted with a speed of thirty-six miies an nour. t : , - - . ? Neither of the , Wrights has ever succeeded in maintaining a uniform speed of 36 miles an hour in flight. Such a speed, in fact, never has been made on any kind of an aeroplane on !any sustained flight If 4t is possible to make a flight of this kind at the .required speed, the fact would be , demonstrated to the satisfaction of all military experts that the aeroplane would . be a valuable adjunct in war- are.
