CREAMERY IS TO BE REBUILT LXEDIATELY .Stockholders: Meeting Well Attend s ed Subscribe Additional Stock, of $5000 To Be Used In Replacing Creamery Lost By Fire. The famous-Lincoln Creamery and Ice Cream plant destroyed by fire sev eral days ago, is to be rebuilt at once in this city,' which is welcome news to the people of town and county.. This decision was made last Tues day at a meeting of the creamery stockholders held in this city. More -than CO stockholders were present at the meeting and the decision to re build was unanimous, a motion to re build made by Manager Blanton being 1 passed without a dissenting vote. The - stockholders and - citizens generally subscribed an additional $5,000 In stock to give in addition to the insurance money sufficient funds with -which to rebuild and equip the plant for business again. It is thought , that the $8,000 insurance and $5,000 additional stock' will give ample funds to put the plant back in operation, there being much of the equipment and supplies than can be salvaged, the machinery rebuilt, etc. It is estimat ed that there are assets of the concern such as cans, tubs trucks, and damag ed machinery, supplies, etc amounting to $30,000. : - The stockholders meeting was pre sided over by E. I. Mostetler, chair man, Mr. Blanton and Mr. Graham Morrison acting secretary. The meeting was recessed from noon until 4 pm.

Washington, June 26. -Under a bill designed to tighten up the immigra tion Nlaw, introduced today by Chair man Johnson, of the House Immigra tion committee, 'admission for per manent residence in this country would, be granted only to aliens eli gible , for citizenship, thus, it was pointed out , shutting the gates to Japanese, Chinese, Mongolians and others not granted the right to citizenship which desire such resi dent . The Johnson bill would also reduce on July 1, 1923, the quota percentage from each country from three to two per cent based on 1910 census figures. In addition to the two percent quota, each country however,, would be given a flat allowance 600, the maximum total from this 600 flow being estimated at 24,000. Tfce percentage - reduced, accord ing to Mr. Johnson's estimates, would cut the total quota admission from round . 225,000 to 170,000. Ex emptions are not included , in these estimates. '.-.. :;;':,',,.. "::, Not more than 10 per cent of any country's quota' would be admitted in the United States in one month which would be extend the movement over a period of ten months instead of five as at present .

RAILWAY STRIKE TO BE CALLED FOR SATURDAY Unless Railroads Agree to Conditions ; of the Unions Demand Stay of 'Wage Qut and Restoration of , Working Kujes Decision to, can ' Strike Follows Lengthy Discussion of Executive Committee. ; ' . Chip ago, June. 27. A strike of the 400,000 railway shopmen of the coun try will be called for July 1, unless the railroads agree to stay the $60,000,000 wage cut due the shop workers on that 'date "and to restore certain working Conditions formerly in effect, it was made known tonight through a tele gram from B. M. Jewel, head of the shop crafts, to the Association of Rail Way Executives. , Decision to call a strike came late today after a lenghty discussion by the executives of the six shop crafts unions, based on the strike vote of the men thus far tabulated. - Should the rail heads arrange an immediate conference, agreeing mean while to continue present wages, re storing working rules modified by the railroad labor boar!, and discontinue farming out rairo.id work, however, a walkout can be halted the telegram said. '" : . Otherwise "a sanction of withdraw al from employment on July 1, 1922, as voted by the employes, will be un avoidable." '. : . The 2,500-word telegram, addressed to T. DeWitt Cuyler, chairman of the Association of Railway Executives, threw no Jight on the actual strike vote beyond saying it was an "over whelming majority." Ballots . were still coming in, it was said, as they were not returnable until June 30. A two-thirds majority is required by the J union bylaws to call astrike. " . Although' the actual calj for the walkout was made dependent on the railway executives' reply to President Jewell's ultimatum, little expectation was expressed' in railroad circles to night that the executives would agree to such sweeping demands as those mado by the onions. , . .- SIX' fkirhltlo'ftal'uhldripre'ddentff, forming the executive council of the mechanical section, railway em ployes' department of the American Federation of Labor, - were1 responsi ble for the strike. Closeted for two days in secret session, they remained silent on their actions until tonight. Declaring that the railroads have acted on a common program to re duce wages and obtain other advan tages 1 to the carriers, , President Jewell's message pointed out, ."one benefit which may come to the car- .. j ... riers and their employes and to the general public, from the fact that there are national spokesmen of ' the conflicting interests who might be able to halt a nation-wide withdraw al of men from employment in the railway service if the railway exec utives sincerely desired to avoid this consequence of their previous course of action.' "For this " reason," the telegram said, "in behalf of and by the aU thority of the executive council of the railway employes department , I am informing you and through you informing the responsible heads ; of the vmus railway system . in the United 'States and also the Pullman company, moat of which are repre sented in the Association of Railway Executives, that unless . an imme diate arrangement can be made: "(1). To continue the payment of the wages at present in force. "(2). To restore operation Under rules 6,-10, 12, 14, 15, 46 and 177 as they existed prior to the amend ments thereof proposed in decision number 222; and, , "(3), To -discontinue the contract ing out of work in shops. "Pending negotiations between the Association of Railway Execu tives and the railway employes de partment looking toward adjustment of the existing disputes upon - these questions, a sanction of withdrawal from employment on July 1, 1922, as voted by the employes, will be unavoidable." .... . .'. .' Voting onThree Points. Tne three points on which the executives are asked to meet the employes' demands are indentlcal with the three questions on which the unions are now completing their strike baljot The first ballot covers the $60,- 000,000 wage cut ordered by the boartl, effective July 1. The second ballot involves sefen rulet regarding overtime and . physical examinations, fought principally because they wip ed out time and one- half pay for overtime and - Sunday work. The third- strike question involved , the practice" of numerous roads in farm ing out certain work, decjared to be in order to avoid the rulings on wages and working conditions by the federal labor board.

"We recommend that an investiga tion be conducted for the purpose of fixing the blame personally on indivi duals responsible.' , ' This was the verdict of the coron er's jury held here today. "Georgia," Henderson, one of the union men slain, was killed by C. K. McDowell, superintendent of the Southern Illinois Coal Company ac cording to the verdict of the jury. This was the only murder Verdict re turned. THE ILLINOIS HORROR Statesville Landmark. ; It is safe to say that the savagery and barbarity exhibited - at Herrin, 111., have never been equalled in this country,, either in peace or war; and nobody would have believed such things possible in a civilized country in time of peace . But we have the cold facts, so far unquestioned ,. of such exhibition of the savage spirit as words can hardly adequately de scribe. If the striking miners had confined their efforts to driving the non-union workers ; away from the mine, compelling them to quit ' work; if there had been some shots fired and two pr three people killed and wound ed, that would have been bad enough, but it would have passed as an inci dent of the strike, such as has occur red before But after the besieged nn union . forces had surrendered they were slaughtered like sheep; not only were they shot down, they were tortured. - And when dying men beg ged for water their piteous appeals were answered with taunfs and. those who would have ministered to thera were prevented. The untutored : sav age of ,, the forest never X displayed more ferocious cruelty. It is without the pale and far .beyond. No excuse that can be offered can palliate . it in ' the toast V--T"'' Mr. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers of America, is quick to disclaim responsibility for the out break at Herrin. We do Lewis and the other labor union leaders we mean the responsible leaders -the justice to say that they would not counsel such violence as that; certain ly we do not believe they would. : But they cannot escape their share of re sponsibility for it. You can't preach to people month after month and year after year that they not only have the right to strike (which they have) but that they have a moral right at least to prevent others taking the jobs which they abandon, without violence being the logical result. When strik ers are told that those who go on working after a strike has been - or dered are their enemies, they that are taking bread irom the mouths of their dependents, it is easy to understand how the striker who may not be able to draw fine distinctions can work himself into a frenzy in which he will feel that muider is not only justifia ble but that it is his duty to kill those who would take from him what he has been taught to believe belongs to him. It is .the spirit of the mob, it is re marked in extenuation. It is always mob spirit that engages in violence; and it is the mob spirit unchecked that turns savage and enacts such barbarity as that witnessed at Herrin. It is evident , too, that the officials at Herrin are either in sympathy with the strikers or afraid of them. The sheriff coolly says that he didn't ask for troops because he saw no need to ask. An officer from the adjutant general's office did nothing because the local authority "didn't ask for State aid. The civil authorities stood idly by and let the butchering pro ceed. Whether the authorities of the State of Illinois will rise to the occa sion and restore the majesty of the law and see that the guilty are pun ished remains to be seen. We want to believe they will but it is well not to expect too much. , We may expect, however, that 'this incident will kill the coal strike." Pub lic sentiment will be so aroused, that not only the coal strikers but the prospective railroad strikers will re ceive little sympathy. In some ; in stances this may v work injustice to men who are as far from sympathy with the Illinois riots as anybody can be'. But this incident is a part of the strike and all strikers will suffer ac cordingly, the innocent along with the guilty. "' ' ' -" Washingtony-'June 26.

It is located at Banner Elk in the very heart of the mountains. It-is one of the outcomes of tnany years-of educational work at Banner Elk under the auspices of the missionary board of the Southern Presbyterian church, says the News and Observer. , This work was founded 25 years ago as the Lees-MacRae Institute. At first only primary branches were taught. Later a high school depart ment was established now the trus tees feel that they are warranted in establishing a junior college. The college is named for former President Wilson because he has long been a contributor to Lees-MacRae Institute. It . is most appropriate. Woodrow Wilson is great as a states man and great as an eductor. A col lege named after him has much even in its name to make it successful. The educational enterprise at Banner Elk is most deserving. GASTONIA BANK WILL . ERECT NEW BUILDING .
