TOMORROW - 1 RIGHTS
With all teachers present or due to
arrive this evening, Superintendent
Carver was prepared today for the op
ening of the city schools tomorrow
morning at 9:30. All pupils are urged
to present themselves at their rooms
at this hour.
The teachers will meet ,it fhrov
buildings at 8:45 and be ready to wel
come the children.
All buildings have been gone over
during the summer months and at the
iNorth school extensive repairs have
been made.
Effective Thursday, ten Southern
Railway passenger trains,. . two of
them important to Hickory and this
division, two on the main line be
tween Charlotte and Danville, two be
tween Asheville and Waynesville and
two between Asheville and Columbia,
will be taken off. Nos. 15 and 16 west
and eastbound trains, the first due
here at 8 a. m. and the second at
8 p. m., are the trains to be remov
ed from service. The strike is the
cause.
Railroad men say that the long
idleness of the Southern's Spencer
shops, when the company was hoping
the men 'would return to their jobs,
is responsible for the bad condition
of many locomotives. .Trains have
been running off schedule a little
more each day and No. 12. due here
last; night at 6 o'clock, was delayed
at ,Morganton 'several houi-s when
the locomotive went dead.
Nos. 21 and 22 will be N taken off
between Asheville and Waynesville
and two summer. . trains between
Asheville and Columbia also will be
removed., Trains Nos. 13 and 18, be
tween Greensboro and Goldsboro, now
leave those stations at 8 a. m. and
8 p. m. -
The annuling of these ten : passenger
trains was made necessary in order
to conserve motive power. They will
be returned to service as soon, as
conditions permit, it was announced.

received. J. U. Long, of Catawba, re
signed and R. R. Boggs, of. Catawba,

matters from different parts of the

force at work in the eastern part
of the county reported that they had

the law in their own hands and each
of them with an apron full of rocks
proceeded to rock the road force antl
their teams. Fortunately no one was
hurt but the women were very glad to '
pay five hundred dollars and permit
the. road to be built over their
premises. Before any one else, under
