THE RALEIGH EVENING TIMES, FRIDAY, JULY13, 190G, """WIllIS ' 7 ROSCOWER'S COMPLAINT Charges Graft in San Fran cisco Relief Fond , Litter Written Governor, Glenn Who Is Asked To Warn Public He Will Take No Action Suspects That Mr. Roscower Overestimates the Extent of Fraud. Governor Glenn has received from Mi-. A. Roscower, editor of the Golds boro Headlight, who is traveling? In California, a letter in which he charges that there Is an enormous amount of graft in the expending of the relief fund at San Francisco and advising the governor to warn the people iof North Curolina so that they will turn no more money into the channel of the general relief funds until this evil Is corrected. The principal evil complained of by Mr. Roscower is that the supplies are .purchased through jobbers who aro allowed to make enormous profits en the goods purchased of them. The gov eror says the report that has gone out that Roscower was sent to San Francisco to investigate in an official capacity Is without foundation and that he went purely as a private citi zen. Governor Glenn thinks he has probably very much, overestimated the amount of graft, and he deems it best to take no official notice of the com plaints made. Dispensary in the Debate. (Continued from First Page.) not to do it," Interjected Mr. Betts, Mr. Jones lauded the present man agement of the county. He did not know an abler man in the court house or to attend to the county's business than Herbert Norris. Henry Holding was just the man for his job. Ho is not at this meeting trying to fix politics but he is out now work ing on tho roads. Ho extolled Chair man Adams and Commissioners Ut ley, Terrell, Edwards and Brough Ion. Commissioner S. W. Terrell an nounced his candidacy for re-elec- lion, saying among other things, that County Attorney Norris saved the .county enough in the Blackloy case to come within ?6 of paying his sal ary for the year. ISrewcr Pours Hot Shot. Mr. W. C. Brewer, a candidate for county commissioner ,is a fighter and ho had his gloves off yesterday. He gave the people the excuses of Tur nor Smith of Panther Branch and William Yates of White Oak, candi dates who could not be present. Mr. Brewer promised the people to .on.,-co that the present infamous road law was abolished. "County Attor ney Norris received $100 for writing this outrageous law. "We aro going to abolish personal work and we have got Norris on the run; the pcoplo are tired of bossism and Norrisism. (Ap plam.o.) Mr. Jones tells you that tho board has fixed up the court house. Yes, tire court house does look nice, but I want to ask you if this board did a single thing to lm provo tho court house until Judge Charles Cook threatened to put them in jail it' they did not. You say that tho inmates of the county homo have nice crockery. I want to ask if they were not eating out of dirty, filthy tin pans until a grand jury jumped on you for your treatment of those poor people. You have spent $500 more in running the county home twelve months than it costs tho Green board to run it thirteen months. Your present board has added a third more to the county's bonded debt. That debt was $07,000 and the floating debt was $:!;!,000. Instead of pay ing the $33,000 with the tax money, you have horded that money and sad dled tho county with an interest bear ing debt for thirty years." Mr. Brewer spoke with gcrat zeal and was time and again applauded. Tho other county commission can didates L. H. Adams, D. T.' Johnson and D. H. Harrison spoke briefly. Sir. l)rcwry"ApiIaudcd. The discussion by the senatorial candidates was in lino with their former speeches. Mr. John C. Drew ry declared his Interest in good roads and assertod that Mecklenburg and other counties had built excellent roads without personal service. There can be no bond issue for roads, Mr. Drewry clearly stated, without the question being submitted to the peo ple. Tho commissioners have power to do this when they see proper. In referring to criticism of an edi torial' in The Raleigh Times on soirie question, Mr. Drewry declared: "I havo no more to do with editorials in The Times than I do with editor ials in tho News and Observer. I own stock in both, and I hardly think you will accuse mo of writing editorials in the vNews and Observer." The crowd laughed at this. Mr. Drewry reviewed his record, showing that he had always stood on the side of temperance. In 1903 he supported the clause in the revenue bill increasing the tax. on railroads and voted for the Fuller bill. While the squirrel law, passed by the last legislature, was a mighty little thing, so Mr.' Drewry said, still it Involved the question of personal, freedom and he did not, believe in a multiplicity of statutes interfering with men's rights. He wanted more liboral pensions for Confederate soldiers. In discussing the care of the In sane, Mr. Drewry declared that if it J was nncessary ta issue bonds to erect : adequate buildings for the aecommo ' dation'of these unfortunates, he be lieved that the good people of the state would approve this humane course, even if it added a little to their taxes. The policy of pay as you go would not do for a progressive people in dealing with such impera tive permanent improvements. Mr. Olive Gives Platform. Mr. Percy J. Olive spoke briefly yesterday and did not consume all the time allowed him. He asserted that a war was on between the corporate Interests and the interests of the peo ple. He reiterated his views on re ducing railroad rates to 2 i-2 cents, on insurance and on temperance. The corporation commission was not tho proper tribunal to settle railroad mat ters but the legislature was, for no power on earth can enjoin tho legis lature. He declared that in 1903 Mr. Drewry introduced twenty-six bills, as against his fifteen in 1905. The squirrel law amounted to nothing, be causo if a squirrel eats your corn or tried to bito you you can kill him. Mr. Honeycutt Indulges in Fan. The candidates for the house of representatives concluded tho debate. Mr. W. C. Douglass spoko In his usual entertaining style and pleased the crowd. He did not fail to bring in "the little Willie boys" and the fa mous "Jlmmydiddles," who hang around tho corners Bmoking cigar ettes while father works. Mr. R. H. Jones made a practical talk largely from the standpoint of a farmer. Mr. Millard Mial promised the people tov serve them faithfully. Mr. Thomas L. Honeycutt injected some fun into his remarks when he charged Mr. Douglass with the crime of Socrates, corrupting the youth of the land. The speaker said ,he had rode on the train all the way from Raleigh to Apex and ho did not know until he heard Mr. Douglass" speech that the train was a bar-room on wheels, a running blind tiger, and all you had to do was to wing your eye at the porter and hand him some money and get the booze. He was sorry Mr. Douglass had put the coun try bovs to these tricks. He was sorry, too, that Mr. Douglass had told tho innocent lads that there were bad places in Raleigh. Mr. W. E. Faison announces his candidacy. Mr. Uetts Hits Dispensary. When tho speaking was over Rev, S. J. Betts mounted the stand and declared this was the first political discussion he had ever heard in his life. He eulogized Mr. Douglass and said that he hoped ho would get every vote in Rolesvllle, .'. Ho also re garded both Mr. Drewry and M Olive as good temperance men. Mr. Betts then made a vigorous reply to Mr. W. N. Jones' speech The minister asserted that men who favor tho dispensary to improve school houses and construct good roads are building highways by blood and founding a city upon iniquity, He paid his respects to Mr. Josephus Daniels, whom ho said has posed as a temperance man before tho public when he could thereby iloat Into po litical power and exercise his bossism by it. Mr. Betts delivered a terrible imprecation on tho Raleigh dispen sary, The city owns the institution then employs officers to arrest the best customers of tho city and pun ishes them. The next speaking will be at Lecs- villo tomorrow. CHOUKNIN'S SLAYER A GIRL DISGUISED (I!y the Associated Press.) 'Sevastopol, '..'Russia, July US.

A telegram from Kansas City, Mo., says: Jesse James, son of Jesse James, the former Missouri outlaw, Is now a full fledged lawyer. Last week he passed an examination before the state board of examiners. In a class of thirty seven, Jesse James stood first. His average in all branches was 91 per cent. Henry Ashley, chairman of the board of examiners, said after the examina tion that Jesse James had tho bright est legal mind of any young man who had ever appeared before the board. Jesse James is a self-made man. . Ho was handicapped as few boys are. The son of an outlaw, he was left an or phan at 6 years of age, without money and with the heritage of a bad name. Soon after the burial of his father, his mother came to Kansas City and made a living for herself and her two children by sewing. Jesse went to school until he was 12 years old, when lie decided that he was old enough to work for his mother. One Sunday he saw the following advertisement in a newspaper: "Wanted An office boy. T. T. Crit tenden, Jr.'.' Jesse answered it and was hired by the son of the governor who had of fered the reward that tempted Bob Ford to kill the boy's outlaw father. A few years later Jesse went to work in Armour's packing plant as a clerk. He studied at home, with his mother as his teacher. After a few years in the packing house he opened a cigar store in the county court house. He wrote a book In defense of his father, which was published and sold well. WHEN YOU WANT THE BEST HAM - TO BOIL BUY When he was 21 years old he had $700 In bank and owned a cottage, in which his mother and sister lived. Then ho opened a cigar store in the business center of Kansas City. At this period of his life, when he was on his road to prosperity and to an honored manhood, he was arrested for the crime of train robbery. It was charged that he, with accomplices, had stopped a Missouri Pacific train and robbed the safe in the express car of $30,000. It was a dramatic train rob bery, as much so as was any of the robberies of a Rimllar nature which had made his father's name notorious throughout the world. He was tried, was ably prosecuted and was acquitted. Hut the criminal charge against him him was a serious setback to his hopes and amhltions. It had taken all his savings to hire lawyers to defend him self, and the worry had caused his mother's, health to fall. Soon after wards she died. Jesse worked harder than ever at his business. He had a chance to sell nut, and did so at a good profit. Then he started a pawnshop and married.. But he wished to be a lawyer. Ho attended the night sessions of the law school here, and all day long he sat. In' his pawnshop reading law. He graduated with highest honors, his preceptors complimenting him. He has sold out his pawnshop, opened a law office and won the first case in which ho ap peared in court. This was in defense of a man charged with burglary. Jesse regards this as a goodnien. Mr. James is 31 years old. Ho is worth $10,000, every dollar of which he has made by hard work. He has two children and lives In a house that he owns. In all his life he has never tasted whiskey, beer or any other in toxicating drink. He does not use to bacco in any form. He is a devoted husband and father, has no bad habits and is scrupulously honest. To men with whom he does business his word is as good as his bond. One of ids greatest pleasures is to go with his wife and babies on Sun day to visit Frank James, his uncle, and Mrs, Zerelda Samuels, his grand mother, upon their farm in Clay county. In a corner of the'dooryard at this old Clay county farm house, beneath a giant coffee bean tree, the body of Jesse James, the outlaw, lies buried. When young Jesse and his family visit there, relatives from the neigh borhood gather in and great stories are told of the old days before and after the war, when Jesse and Frank were struggling against the soldiery. Sometimes Frank James, who lives there quietly as a farmer, takes a hand in the conversation, but he never talks of those days If strangers are present. COMPACT TO KILL HUSBAND'S SLAYER. (By the Associated Press.) SaattlcW'ash., July 13. Immedi ately after the arrest of Esther Mitchell, the 17-ycar-old girl who killed her brother here last night, orders were given for the arrest of Mrs. Maude Creflield, the widow of the prophet whoso death at the hands of George Mitchell led to last nights tragedy.. Mrs. Creflield, how ever, telephoned the police where she was to be found, and when taken to the station frankly admitted that she had entered into a compact with Esther to kill tiie slayer of her hus band. She will be held as an ac complice. I'llE DE L'TSCH LANI COLLIDED WITH PIER. (By the Associated Press.) Dover, England, July .13. Tha Hamburg-American Line steamer - Deutscli land, from Hamburg yesterday by Dover and Cherbourg for New York, while leaving Dover this morning col lided with the Prince of Wales pier and twisted her stem.

Three Blown to Pieces. (Continued from First Pago.) had been completely stripped of cloth ing. This was not the case with any other man who was in the shanty at the time of tho explosion, and accord ing to the officials of the McLaughlin Company bears out their theory that robbery was the motive of tho chime. Late in the day the police received Information that led them to believe that the dynamite might have been placed under the 'bunding at the in stance of a woman who was jealous of one of the men who was killed. It Is known that they quarreled tho day before the explosion, and that she threatened him. AUCTION SALE OF LAND.

Parents who are related by the ties of blood, or who have a consumptive tendency, or family blood taint, are sure to transmit it to their children in the form of Scrofula. Swollen glands, brittle bones, weak eyes, hip disease, pale, waxy complexions, emaciated bodies, running sores and ulcers, and general weak constitutions are the principal ways in which the disease is manifested. Those who have inherited this blighting trouble may succeed in holding it in check during young, vigorous life : but after a spell of sickness, or when the system has begun to weaken and lose its natural vitality, the ravages of the disease will become manifest and sometimes run into Consumption. S. S. S. goes down into the circulation and forces out the scrofulous deposits, kills the germs and completely cures the disease. It changes the quality of the blood by removing all impurities and poisons and supplying this vital fluid with rich, health-sustaining qualities. S. S.
