At a meeting of a large number of tobacco farmers of this and adjoining counties at Greensboro last week it was decided to pool the tobacco crops of 1911, what effect this will have upon the manner of sale or price of the pre sent crop it IS imposable to determine just now. We only hope it will be pro ductive of no disorder or unpleasant feeling. We with thousands of other wish that the step may result in much benefit to them, and it can be the case and result in no harm to no one. A Thought For the Week. We owe to the community in which we live to do everything we can in every way possible that will be to its advantage. Our neighbor’s prosperity means a great deal more to us than some one who lives elsewhere. We should bear this in mind in buying our goods. We can afford to pay our home man a firm price for his wares rather than send our money away, knowing as we do that every dollar expended with our own citizens will help in sustaining our schools, churches and public institutions. It pays richly to patronize your home industries.— Selected. The President’s Flag. Leslie’s Weekly. Not one person in a thousand knows the president’s flag. As president of the United States he has none, but as commander in chief of the army and navy his presence is noticed by dis tinct standards. The army flag is red and bears in the center the official coat of arms of the United States. Bearing the same coat of arms and somewhat similar, save its color, blue, is the navy flag. The na vy flag is displayed whenever the president is aboard a naval vessel, at a navy yard or under the navy’s escort. Reviving When Shocked Again.

Preadent Taft insists upon a scien- j tificalUr constructed taiff, but the only ! thing scientific about the Payne-Aldrich law, which Mr. Taft signed without hesitation or scruple and them proceeded to laud as ’’the best tariff ever“ was the sl[|ll with whioh its fornulatbrs enlarged, while pretending to curtail, the license of the privileged aad protect ed ifj^rests to plunder the masses of theifounttjf’s comsumers.

Wonderful yield of cotton made by South Carolina farmers—paid $26 per acre for land, and last year refused $1S0 for it. Four hundred and eighi bales of cot ton from a 200-acre field is the wonder ful record made last year by J. D. Whittle, near Blackville, S. C., on ths Southern Railway, and is evidence of th» vast resources of the soils of the Southeast for growing the great Ameri- «an staple. For this two-bale-to-the-acre crop made last year the grofv^d was broken twice, five loads of stable manure per acre were broadcasted, then 2,000 lbs. of guano, compesed ef 800 lbs. 16 i»et^ cen* acid, 1,000 lbs. cottonseed meal and 200 lbs. potash.

That the House Democrats should feel disappointment over their failure to pass the Wool and Free List bills cfVer the Presidential veto is only natu ral, but they are in no wise to blame for a result which would have been dif ferent but for the shiftingjof Insurgent Republican votes which haQ been form- ely cast fer the measwre. The upshot of it all is, of course, that Congress will close its extraordinary session with out affecting any tariff reform where- ever. This, from the standpoint of the public which is thus denied any measure of immediate relief from tariff e3*actio*s, is greaWy to be re gretted. But two things, at least, have been made so plain that only the wilfully blind can fail to recognize 4iera. One is that there will be no genuine lowering of the protection af forded monopoly so long as a Repub lican adminstration is eiothed with power to prevent it. The other is that, if elimination of special privilege and curtailment of tariff graft are to come, they must be secured through the agency of the Democratic party and through that agency alone. The Demo, grates, though unable to effect any concrete results, have distinctly made good, so far as in their power lay.- They have been faithful to both the spirit and the letter of the pledges on the strength of which the people placed them in charge of one branch of Congress in the election of 1910 and have demonstrated beyond a peradven- ture that they may safely be entrusted with control of the government, in all its departments, in 1912. In blocking all their efforts at tariff reform Presi dent Taft has made a clear-cut issue upon which they can go before the country next year in reasonable confi dence that the outcome will be in their favor.—Va. Pilot TO POOL TOBACCO CROP This Plan Adopted By North Carolina And Virginia Growers. At a secret session of the six hun dred farmers and tobacco-growers of Nor^h Carolina and Virginia in the Grand opera house Greensboro Fri day afternoon, a report of the resolu tion committee favoring the pooling of the 1911 crop and holding for bet ter prices was unanimously adopted. At the session of the convention being held, and which will pjobably be con tinued, details the plan will be worked out. This is an important step for the tobacco-growers of the bright tobacco belt of Virginia and North Carolina, and is the first tiane such a pool has ever been undertaken in this 'section. Heaven Help Those Who Helps Themselves. A splendid object lesson is funrnish- ed other towns and cities ctf the State by the town of Hickory. Recently the progressive people of that town raised a fund of $200,000 to guarantee the establishment of industrial enter prises,- and the scheme has worked Ad mirably. We are toid that already the town has secured a carriage and bug gy factory, an ©yerall factory, a filing cabinent factory, a chair factory, a bridge and steel structural plant, and others of the same sort, which means that Hickory is destined to become a great manufacturing center. And it &11 came about simply by the peopfe determining to help Thwnselves, and not waiting for ©utside capital to come in and do it all. Outside eapital will come, no doubt, but it must be met half way.— Mt. Olive Tribune. Dragging the Keystone South into Horror, No Clue to Dij^pearance The art world was thrown into con sternation las I week by the announce ment that Leonardo De Vincis* master- kpiece, “Mona Lisa,” or as it is popu larly k«own, “La Joconde,” had dis appeared from the Louvre in Pams. The famous painting hung in the place of honor in the Sa^ Carre, and not a vestige of clue wS left by the person or persons ^ho took It to aid the de tectives and {^lice in trying to trace Jt. A search of every nook and cran- ^ of the Louvre from roof to cellar only brought to light the frame in whiah the picture hung and ttie glass ^hat covered it. Those were found in tact on a back staircase. Some per- sans believe that a practical joke has been played, but nevertheless the gov ernment has its entire force of de- work in an offort to painting. Bttst Trusts Or Boss ^Em? Beginning next November 15 a sub committee of the Senate committee on intera^te commerce will hold hearings in Washington on the subject of anti trust legislation. George W. Perkins, J. P. Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, Elbert W. Gray and others who main tain that combinations are for the best interests of the people will be heard on one side; then those v ho condemn all restraint of trade will be heard in turn. Capitalists and labor leaders will both be asked for their views. Senar- tor Cummins, chairman of Idie sub- covmlttee, expresses the belief that “ou* of it all will come, probably, as dispassioi^te and helpful a discussion of tils very vital subject as we have ever hari.—Charlotte Observer. Kevolutionize Selling The tobacco district of the States ef Virginian and North Carolina, which comprise the «orthern central counties When from the far South the news Is flashed northward of a lynching, it invariably brings torrents of condem nation and pitying regret from the Northern communities. The S*uth has always received these somewhat over bearing comments with patience and silence—and never offered excuses, nor tried to shift the blame to another section of the cnuntry. But, when a Northern community, after participating in one of the worst lynching that has ever been recorded— dNorth or South—gets up the next morning, rubbing the smoke, tainted with burnt human flesh, from its smart ing eyes, and cries ont through its newspaper—Coatesville Reoord, August 14, 1911—to the world-at-large, that “there were several Southern people, strangers, in town, and there were strange faces in front of the mob who dragged the negro away from the hos pital,” how is it to be expected of the South to read, with any complacence or patience, futher criticisms fvoxa. the North? When the ministers of the Gospel in the North—as is their wont on such oc casions—rise in their pulpits, will they drag forth some oJd worn sermon on “The pity of the thing in our dearly beloved South?” Or, will the text be “There were several Southern people. Strangers, in Luwn last But what will the orator do when he comes to this part of the text: “Later stones were used to break the larged bones of the victim, and, blackener and oharred, they were divided into small places and thrown among the crowd, who scrambled for them like a pack of hungry wolves jrfter a morsel of food.” Will he explain that these same “several Southern strangers broke up the burnt bones and distributed them to their several thousand Northern friends, who stood around the smoking pyre looking qp in awe and in inaction a»d with disa^probatioB? Or, will it be explained that these “several thousand spectators” hover ing around the smoldering remains were also “Southern strangers” who came up from the South on an excur sion train especially to see the “sever al Southern people, atrai|gers,” show their Northern neighbors how the trick is done, and that these self-same spectators from the South gathered these hideous souvenirs to hang in their humbie huts down South, like relics gathered by the “head hunters” of the isles in the south Pacific ocean? Not satisfied wifh this suggested me, the paper further voices the xplanations of its citizens by saying that “A great part of the trouble that has been caused by colored people in Coatesville for years pest has usjially come about through negroes who have come from the South!” Will it be explained, when this part of the text is reached, that the South sends its negroes around to the Northern towns to murder people, so that the goodiv Southern citizens can send a few of their number—to wit, “Several Southern strangers”—to burn the murderer at the stake? The real backbone os this great Un ion knows that the South has its great problems to solve—its conditions to overcome, and that it actually does not have time to run excursions to lynch- ings, nor to send its “several South- ver reco- Hoki the ble0stbee» fleet angel fast until he And the night shall be filled with music, and the cares that infest the day shall fold their tents, like the Arabs, and as silently steal away. —Longfellow. In the beautiful oity of Buenos Ay res, says Stuart Pennington i| “The Argentine Republic” (Stokes) is per haps the only statue in the world eje cted by white men to a negro.

The growers in this territory have become dissatis fied vdth the methods of making sales on the market floors of warehouses. They contend that the prices received are too small, the charges too high and the system antiquated and cumber some. They seek to evolve a plan by which they can sell with less expense for warehouses. They believe that a •sufficiently large number of the grow ers can be brought into such an oi- ganizsiliion that a majority of the crop will be pooled.
