‘‘AND RIGHT THE OAY MUST WIIN, TO DOUBT WOULD BE DISLOYALTY, TO FALTER WOULD BE SIN.” Vol 3 BfEBANE, N. Cm THURSDAY. MAY 1« 1912 NO 13 PERSONAL AND LOCAL BRIEFS PEOPLE WHO COME AND GO Items of interest Gathered by Our Repo'‘t»r Mr. and Mrs. C. Fitch spent Sunday in Hillsboro. There is iikely to be some little change in the personel of Ahimance Counties officials. The Democrats ought not to wait for the Republicans to make them. Good officials are all rii:ht, but a life tenure in office is not according to the 'loctrine taught in the Democratic creed. That Railroad ment. Etiibank- Mra. 1j. B. ane Friday.

Mrs; J. T. Malone of Corbett, has been visiting in Mebane for the past few days. ' Mrs. James P. Smith and daughter Miss Mary spent Saturday and Sunday at the White House. Mr. J. N. Warren owns a couple of draft horses as fine as we have seen any where lately. They are jet black and match perfectly. Billy Ralph is a young* student of dentisty from Tarboro. We hope he will succeed in his profession. We feel quite sure he will never give a patient i.eedlegs pain. Mr. Billy Miles formerly of Mebane '^’ho operated the tobacco warehouse here three years ago, came down on Friday evnings train to spend a few days with his old friends. There is to be communion services at Hawfields Sunday May 19. There will be two sermons and dinner on the ground every one is cordially invited to come. Ex President Roosevelt and Presi dent Taft are making of the Presiden tial question a mess, a miserable mess. Would it not be a good thing to remove some of the old stumps that are tilted up facing our sidewalks, you know they don’t look nice. We hope to give some tobacco ware house news in this issue that will be interesting to our people and who will help to make of Mebane a great cen tral market. Mr. C. C. Smith will lay the founda tion for his two new brick stores this week. They will be 56 by 24 feet each. If we mistake not tenants have been found for both of them. The past week was splendid for farm work, and the thrifty farmer took j good advantage of it. It was an opportunity to make up for lost time. When you are picking a man to serve in the State Legislature don’t forget that you have some solid old j fellows that follow the plow. They may not be professional chatterboxes, but when they get down to it they can do some pretty logical thinking. There is a bushe’ and a half of rot spewed over the editorial pages of sumo papers in the state each week “called our opinion of Simmons,” when it snould be denominated, see how I can make the air stink for Kitchin. While it lacks about fifteen days be fore the summer resorts will be open some of them longer still, but a num ber of people are already seeking their summer cottages on the mountains and at the seashore. They ai-e forcing the season it seems to us, but they are doing it just £tie same., H. E. Wilkinson Co. change ad in this issue. This firm always keep stock compleet, Dry goods, notions, shoes, groceries, etc., just what you want. Don’t fail to see them, they' will treat you right eviB/ day. Work on the new “Mebane Store Companies” brick- will begin soon. They have already torn down and removed the old warehouse in the rear. They will likely push the old store building back, and use it until the new one is completed. An immense quantity of fertilizer is being delivered to farmers living in tho neighborhood of Mebane these days. It is thought that close on to four thousand tons will go out from here. If it is more convenient to haul ferti lizer from Mebane, it aught to be equaly convenient to haul the protluce made with it, back here. Then why not Mebane be a great sales market goods, why not? A railroad man of some prominence was in Mebane the past week, when we were as.ringhim when we might hope to have tne railroad embankment cut down in front of the Mebane House. He answered very encoui^gingly about the matter, and said he thought the I work would soon be attended to, in fact left the impressiod upon our mind that the railroad would soon order the work doi.e. Steamer Lanes Are Changed. The hydrographic office has announced the changing of the trans- Atlantic steamer lanes 60 miies to the south ward of their present position as a result of reports of many icebergs in the present lanes. The steamship companies have agreed to adopt the new route. For a Delegate. .Maj E. J. Hale, of the Fayectville Observer, is spoken of as a dele»>ate- at- to the National Convention at Balti more. He has attended many conven tions as shown by the following extract of h's life; “In addition to his delega- teship to the Democratic National Con vention cf 1884, he was a delegate-at- large to the Nation j1 Conventions of 1896, 1900, 1904 and 1908. At the first named, he was a member of the committee on platform, and was one of the eight who made the first draft of it. At the second, he was chairman of the delegation. At the third, he was Vice-President for North Carolina of the Convention. At the fourth, he was chosen one of the committee to notify the presidential nominee.” for A Successful Bazaar. Bigger Than the Titanic There is being built at the Vulcan shipyards at Hamburg Germany a ship bigger than the^Titanic. This ship will surpass all standards for size The Titanic was 46,000 tons, this vessell the Imperator will be 50,000 tons The Titanic would accomodate 3200 passengers, this ves-?ell wiU accomo date 42.50. This vessell will have nine decks above the water line, this will the three more than the Titanic. The j Imperator will carry every feature for pleasure and comfort that the Titanic carried and a number more, one feature will be a frahm and antirotating tank to prevent the motion of the vessell in a rough sea, this will be Jhltland Items Mr. and Mrs John Sharp of Hills boro spent Saturday and Sunday with Mr. Shaips parents Mr. and Mrs. Rob ert Shary. Mrs. Jack Smith and Mrs. John Baity are visiting daughter and sister Mrs. Jack Brice in Burlington. Mr. Robert Sharp jr. and Miss Well- ie Strowd attended commencement ex ercise at C. R. Institude last Friday Revs. D. R. Williams and T. A. Wil liams from High nt and Winston came down 1 ist Monday to attend the funeral of their grand mother old Mrs. James Williams who was eighty seven years of age. We reeret to learn Mrs. Ira Lewis’s condition does not improve and her death is daily expected. Mrs. Florence Fitzpatrick who has been seriously ill f«r the past four weeks is slowly recovering. Little Gertrude, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W.W. Smith is very sick. Messrs Will Sharp and Harry Fitz patrick “took in” the school close at Buck Horn last Friday. Mr. H. E. Murphy and little son Ed win spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Robert Sharp. Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Gordan of Hills boro visited their daughter Mrs. J. J. Brown Sunday. All the old writers have dropped out I feel mighty lonely wish some of 1 hem would return to keep me company. “Patz • A Fcoli«h Versk)!.. The Durham Herald, a Kitchin papc r says: We have not seen the Laughinghouse letter, but the version we get of the affair was that it was being circulated by the friends of Mr. Simmons in t^e hope of injuring Mr, Kitchin. Then you have been imposed upon by a very foolish version of the afTair. Who in North C irohna, at all posted as to men in public life, dosen’t kno»/ tha*' Joe Laughinghouse would “stick his head in the fire” rather than write anything to be used by the friends of Senator Simmons to injure Mr. Kitchin. Mr. Laughinghouse is a Kitchin appointee and the letter he wrote was designed to help the governor. Al though it contains a sneaking attack on the lamented Aycock, now dead, Governor Kitchin has not seen fit to repudiate either the letter or the man who wrote it. He may do so when he finds the tide of public sentiment running strong against him on account of it.—Greensboro News. COMKENGEMENT EXER CISES Program For Bingham School LW PM HEM Orango Grove Items The wheat crop looks promising.

The Corntry Store, under a booth conducted by Mr. and Mrs S. Arthur White and Miss Jennie Lasley netted approximately $100,00.

When the hour comes for us to part fiom our loved ones nothing we can say or do will cause them to remain for Gods will, will be done rot ours. It is a hard task to part from one who is loved but death v/ill have its claims for us all sooner or later.

Be yee also ready for the coming dt our blessed Lord for ye know not when he cometh to make up his jewels, whaf great consolation it is to be when stand ing around the dying bed of loyed ones if we know where they shall spend eternity, may the richest blessings fall abundantelv around the parents of this deceased one who spent both skill and time in rendering service to his aflicted body, everything was done through kind heart in trying to help him throuch his af lictions, his condition was a serious one oh! the suffering he must of had to bear.

VARDAMAN MAY GOME. Amount Covenng Ship ana Cargo Estimated at $7,000,000. A cable dispatch from London to The New York World says: Liabilities totalling approximately $6,875,000 were dischargtd by L’oyd’s underwritters and marine insurance companies as a result of the Titanic distster. The insurance on the hull amounted to $3,690,000, the risk being held by insurance concerns, while the remaind er was held by the White Star Line. The costliest item in the cargo was a consignment of rubber worth about $125,000. About $1,500,000 covers the loss of personal effects belonging to passengers, shipment bonds also being included in the latter sum. Senator=Elect From - Mis sissippi Likely to Help Underwood.

Mr. Bun Polk who was taken to Raleigh hospital a week ago afflicted with a case of pellegta, died in Raleigh I trained her mind, that to day netic, possessed of so much to win his way in the world, and yet possessed of the devil, he flings all ar^ay to do ! one wicked cruel deed. Do you won der that he shudders to meet Maker with such a record? What a contrast with Helen Keller who was [ blind, deaf and dumb, all her senses except touch, tast and smell locked 1 up, she could not hear and could not I see, she could not speak and yet she so slle is days.

Some work is being done with a scraper, shaping up the street. This is all well enough, and it is very prf»per to be done, but the fact of sa.iding a a few side streets, and getting them in permanent good condition should not be lost sight of. The presbyterian people commenced making preparation for their bazaar Friday morning. They worked at some disadvantage, but we think did very well. They finished up stock Saturday evening and realized quite a r,ic3 sum It wont be long before work on the new handsome brick store for the Meb- ?»ne Store Company will be started. Mebane is going a very fine pace now. There will be fine business here this fall with our merchants. The tobacco trade is going to be splendid and every one is looking forward to thrifty bus iness 1 our Mayor gave us this piece of news Monday. It seems that the town of Mebane will have that on the north side of the railroad removed, while the Southern railroad will have that on the south side removed. We are very glad to be able to give this piece of news. It is good news. Our QratetuI Thanks straw berries in the spring time are regarded as one of the finest table de licacies. It was our good fortune to be the ricipient of a basket of straw berries from a lady well wisher of the Leader a few days past, the largest and finest berries-we have seen this season. We assure Miss Margie Scott of our grateful thanks for this kind rememberance of the Editor. A Strong Team. The Planters Tobacco Warehouse of Mebane will be under a new manage ment this fall, J.T.Carter of Ridgeville R. W. Vincent, and W. D. Bowland have rented the Planters warehouse and will operate it for the coming fall and spring season. It is useless for the Leader to say anything in com - mendation of these men, for they are too Well and favorably, known to re^ quire it. They were all reered in one of the best tobacco counties in the state, and knoAr tobacco from a to z. not only that but they are among the cleverest and most popular men of thia section. They will give perfect satisfaction to the leaf tobacco trade. The several tobacco companies have promised to amply supply the Mebane tobacco market with buyerk The prospects for a fine fall ^ leaf to bacco sales was never brighter. In fact it seems that every one is going to treat Mebane right. Mrs. Jj. M. Cates is spending a few days this week in Burlington vsith her son Mr. Clarence Cates.

The story is told by The New York Sun that last Thursday afternoon, in a gentle effort to cheer her up, the Vtlanta-jailer took Mrs. Daisy Grace to the gallows room where he exhib ited the black cap and showed her how the noose is attached. For her benefit the trap was sprung and she was toid^ how, with the pulling of the big lever, the condemmed man’s body falls six feet into space, bringing up with a jerk which nine times out of ten breaks bis neck. It is said that Mrs. Grace was so “cheered up” by the exhib ition that she fell fainting and became hysterical, crying out that the picture of the gallows was fixed in her mind. This was rather remarkable effort on the part of the jailer to make his prisoner enjoy her rather embarrassing position. Having found out the thing works, Mrs. Grace must have seen how quickly the work is done, and of course, that ought to have been exceedirgly i.iteresting to her.—Charlotte Observer. “BEE” HUSKEY STUNG Qaftney Man Enveloped by Swarm of the Insects While at Work.

Respectfully, S. Arthur White, P. M. Moral is Self Evident. (Charlotte Chronicle.) The Senate passed the river and harbors bill, including a number of amendments by Senator Simmons of North Carolina. The bill carries $1,455,- 000 for their improvement of North Carolina waterways, more than half of which, $800,000 to be exact, was secured by North Carolina’s senior' senator, in the form of amendments, after the bill had been presented to the senate, ments were three, as follows: $300,000 for beginning work on a haibor of refuge at Cape Lookout, $300,000 for the 26 foot project for the Cape Fear river below Wilmington, $200,000 for dredge and improvement of inland waterway between Beaufort and Norf jlk. Appropriations for surveys: Meherrin river from mouth to head of navigation northwest prong of Bay river from pub lic wharf to town of- Bayboro, Lumber river from mouth to turnpike bridge, Trent river from Newbern to Pollocks- ville for a depth of 10 feet, Cape Fear river below Wilmington, for a depth of 20 feet to quarantine station^ All the house provisions with reference to North Carolina were retained The Tar JJeel state fared exceedingly well at the hands of the senate. This comes from having a man on the job who is experienced in the ways of the senate and can produce the goods. The moral is self evident. The Postmaster has warned Cricket Hicks that the government is kicking on accout of his moving from one place to another so much, and causing his mail to be forwarded. They say they lose several cents on every letter written by Cricket. Sidney Hocks has traded a calf for a cider mill, and until opens he will use it nuts. Back Lots (From The Oxford Public Ledger.) The Charlotte Observer notes that in the Queen City violets have taken the place of “filth aiid garbage and trash” in many back yards. What a change is this and how agreeable it would be if it were to become the pra ctice in Oxford! the trouble with us the apple season i lies not so much in unkept )>ack yards to crack hickory | of dwelling lots as in unkept back lots At Morehead The Atlantic Hotel at Morehead City is now undergoing prej erations for the opening June 12th.

If experience quafifies him he is a post graduate i-a the art of operating, a hotel, and those who visit the old popular Atlantic at Morhead this summer may rest assured of every comfort, luxury, and pleasure that this famous old resort has offered the pleasure and health seaker for more than a quarter of a century.

The New York World estimates that the people of the United States would benefit to the extent of hundred million dollars a year as the result of the adoption of the free sugar bill which has passed the democratic House of Representatives. This is real revi sion in the interest of •American con sumers, and is all the more to be desired because of the fact that at least half of the saving effected would come out of the coffers of the bloodsucking Trust. Furniture Factories Are Working on Back Orders. J. s. White, of Mebane, who is sec retary and treasurer of the White Furniture company was in Greensboro on returning from Lexington, where he was in attendance upon a regular meeting of the association of Southern Furniture Manufacturers.
