by Train Wheels.
Mr, W.l. Clinard in Serious
Accident at Newton,
Mr. W. L. Clinard. city clerk
of Hickory, was the victim of a
serious accident at Newton Sun
day night. He was a passenger
on the C. and N. W. train and
stepped off at the Newton

was getting aboard the train,
which had started, he missed his
hold and fell, and the wheels
passed over his heel, crushing
the bone and cutting several art
eries. He was brought to Hick

foot.
Mr. Clinard is very weak from
the loss of blood, but is cheerful
under his misfortune. His
friends sympathize with him
deeply.

.Sand Clay Road
Hickory-Brookford.
I r
Strenuous Squabble Over St.
James and Bolick Roads.
The first mile of sand clay road
in Catawba county will be built
between Hickory and its thriving
suburb Brook ford. The road will
cost SI6OO and the cost was or
dered equally divided by the
county commissioners on Monday
between HicKory township and
Brookford town. Work will be
gin soon and one of the worst
stretches of road in the county
will become one of the best.
The best part of the day was
taken up in the fight for the Cen
tral Highway route between the
St. James road and the Chas,
Bolick road. Mr. W. A. Self re
ore3enttd the former and Mr.
Feimster and Mr. McCorkle the
iatter. The commissioners per
mitted both roads to enter New
ton, the people along the lines to
pay all damages and expenses of
ouilding, except for bridges. It
is estimated that the making of
these roads will cost SI,OOO apiece.
The next meeting will decide
"hich road shall be the Central
Highway.
Tne court house repairing was

Many bids were received running
as high as $2700. The north and

Six Children Burned to Death
The Hickory fire department
failed to save the life of six in
mates of a house near Lenoir
College Monday. The building
was completely destroyed and
had no insurance. Only the
motherof the family was saved,
and she wept inconsolably over the
loss of her children, especially the
oldest one, Cindy. The building
was the doll house of little Miss
Mary Miller, daughter of Rev.
and Mrs. C. L. Miller, and the
babies were her dollies. Not
even a speck of sawdust was
found after the holocaust.
In a serious brawl in Bobtown
Sui.day night Walter Jones was
badly wounded. Two colored
men were arrested, Jones Knox
and Doc Holmes, and the police
are looking for a third. Jonas
was cut on the right cheek, in
the throat, right breast and right
side. Drs. Blackburn and Men
zies dressed his wounds. One
of the negroes was seriously cut.
The trial will be held as soon as
all parties are able to attend.

COMMENT.
APOtOGIA.
V
Commenting on the Democrat's
admission —in reply to a com
plaining subscriber—that it was
not doing enougfi original work,
Wade Harris has this plain-spok
en admonition in the C harlotte
Chronicle:
Banks made some sort of an ex
cuse of that sort at the time
Beasley, of the Monroe Journal,
woke him up for having accused
the editors of the weekly papers
of the same disease with which
he is now afflicted—plain, old
fashioned laziness. For Banks
is lazy, and we don't care if he
does get mad. at us saying so.
There is nothing much" wrong
with that original brain cell he
speaks of, if he would just put
the other cells behind it and
push it into action. We would
very much enjoy seeing Dr.
Banks get a move on himself.
He could surprise the readers of
The Democrat if he would only
pull down one of the live wires
in his office and rub himself with
the business end of it.
"Faithful are the wounds of a
friend," said the Wisest Man,
and we hasten to thank our old
colleague for his frank criticism.
No doubt there is truth in his
estimate and we shall seek to
profit by it. We were born, .and
still live, under the southern
sun.
Yet under the search-light of
the most rigid examination that
Ego is able to turn upon self,
we cannot convince ourselves
that the poverty of the Demo
crat's columns is due entirely to
laziness. Surely not the sloth
of the shirker. For 11 years
we toiled by the side of Mr.
J. P. Caldwell on the Charlotte
Observer, and the days work
ranged from 12 to 16 hours, week
in and week out. We have al
ways had a degree of pride in j
the fact that, wl ile serving on I
the local staff of the Philadelphia
Record, we broke the record for j
•.mount of ma ter turned cat by
any reporter J'or a week -11 col
umn of 8 point —and got an unask
ed for increase of salary as the re
sult. That much ran the gaunt
let of "the desk" with its merci
less blue pencil, The average
was 7 1-2 or 8.
This deaith of originality, of
brightness, of general worthi
ness in the Democrat is the
rather attributable to the wide
range of a weekly editor's duties.
Here is a partial list:
Writing all the editorials and
the locals; reading the exchang
es, reading all proofs; drumming
up all the ads., often requiring
three or four visits to the same
advertiser; writing some of the
ads; estimating on job work;
superintending the job office and
the delivery of the work; or
dering stock; writing the mail
Thursdays (1660 papers), keep
ing the subscription list strait;
keeping the books and mak
ing out the statements
for the local and foreign ads.
and for the job work and
subscriptions; soothing the sub
scriber whose feelings are hurt,
and collecting from the fellow
who won't pay the collector.
Riding rough-shod into this
schedule, comes a troop of those
highwaymen, the Unforeseen
Interruptions, and holds a man
up any where from an hour to
three-quarters of a day. Was it
Horace Bushnell who lamented:
"Lost—irrevocably, irretrieve
ably, —somewhere between sun
rise and sunset, an hour of
time"?

Catawba Men
Are Honored
Siiuford President and Robinson
Vice Pres. of Farmers Meeting.
Mr. W. J. Shuford, of Hickory,
who is doing so much for the
farmers of this section as a
member of the state board of
agriculture, was elected presi
dent of the Farmer's State con
vention at Raleigh last week,
when he also made an effective
speech on cc-operation among
farmers, especially as illustrated
by the success of the Creamery
at Hickory. Of President Shu
ford the News and Observer
said: 4 'He is an enthusiastic ad
vocate of modern methods, keep
ing abreast with the times."
Catawba countv, was further
honored in the election of Mr,
John W. Robinson as Vice Pres
ident, Mr. J. 0. Schaub was sec
retary.
Mr. R. L. Shuford was elected
president of the live stock asso
siation.
Mr. Shuford pointed out the
advantages to farmers in selling
direct to the trade. Govern
ment figures show that the con
sumer pay SI.OO for what the
farmer sells for 46 cents. The
other 54 cents goes to the rail
roads and the middleman.
Farmers who market their
products through the Hickory
Creamery now get 31 cents in
stead from 12 1-2 to 18 cents
heretofore for their butter.
Ernest Starnes told how x he
made 146 bu. of corn on an acre.
Mr. T, B. Parker told the far
mers they could better the pre
sent low price for cotton seed
by holding, as the corn crop, 500,
000.000 bu. short would create a
strong demand for the seed.
A resolution was adopted that
farmers should ask full tare in
selling cotton, and that cotton,
should be ginned on a cash in
stead of a 101 l basis. The fol
lowing resolution was adopted;
That every encouragement
possible be given to better roads,
better common schools with bet
ter teachers better paid, and
longer terms for school. We be
lieve that agriculture shou'd be
taught in the public schools and
we urge that every means pos
ible be used to bring this about.
