STATE TREASURER LACY COMES WITH "HOT SHOT" FOR MAJOR BRUCE CRAVEN Calls the Trinity Major "Old-Fashioned, Common, Ordinary, Every Day Lier," Refuting the Former's Assertion About the State: Bor rowing Money at 9 Per Cent. The Raleigh correspondent of the Charlotte Observer quotes State Treasurer Ben Lacy as saying: "Major Bruce Craven is an old fashioned, common, ordinary, every day liar," in commenting upon the charge that the' state has borrowed a half million dollars in New York at nine per cent- To the contrary, says Mr. Lacy, the state has borrowed no money in New York save a loan made during the session of the legislature for re funding outstanding debts- The im plication in the recent Craven broad side at the governor and the council of state was that money had been borrowed for permanent improve ments on roads at nine per cent Upon inquiry at state depart ments it developed that the most re cent loan, that of a half million doU lars for the state sanatorium, wa made through the Page Trust, com pany, of Aberdeen, and made at a rate of six per cent Loans other than this have been of comparative ly small amounts and for building? or maintenance at state institutions There was every indication at the executive offices today that the Cra ven assault in one of the state dailies is not a popular form of publicity. Not only has the old Trinity man perverted facts but he has repeated the offense, it is declared. No bonds, so far, have been sold by the state and no money borrowed for any part of the big program authorized by the last general assembly. THE NEWS IX 3RTEF FROM THE CAPITOL OF TALLY HO Despite AU the Agitation For the Reduction Of Tobacco Acreage a Full Crop Has Been Planted . (W. R. MANGUM) Stem, N. C-, May 19- Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Lovejoy, tourists, en route from Florida to their home in Connecticut last week had their car broken down near the W. H. Wash ington place on Route 1, and had to send to Detroit for the broken piece. After waiting over at the Whitaker hotel several days, Mr. Lovejoy was taken, suddenly very ill last Friday morning and taken to Brantwood hospital where he underwent an ope ration and will remain for some time. Disregard Warning. A majority of the farmers of this section will finish planting tobacco this week. Barring last year, the sales of fertilizer at this point are as heavy as any previous year, and despite all the agitation for reduc tion of acreage, a full crop has been planted. Roads In Bad Shape. As. a result of the recent rains, the roads in this section are in bad shape, as bad perhaps as they have been during the past winter, and are again badly in need o? dragging. Auto Accident. Mr Clifton Stem, of Route 2, while returning home from Oxford late Sunday night in a buggy had the misfortune to be struck by an automobile driven by an Oxford business man, at a point in the road near the Ferrell place. Mr. Stem seeing the car approaching, pulled out to one side of the road and stopped but was r nevertheless run into by the auto which completely demolished one of the wheels and bent both axles. The auto stopped as quickly as possible and, the owner offered to make full reparation for the damage. Lock Boxes. The Bank of Stem has installed 78 saffety lock-boxes.- The combin ed .weight was eighteen hundred pounds. Political Job: There will soon be 5a -vacancy in the post office here which will be filled no doubt by a staunch Repub lican. It is said that the Demo crats will , have an equal chance.- We will wait and see. i FOR SALE ROLLER TOP DESK v good condition.

The trouncing which Oxford ad ministered to Henderson Tuesday afternoon was a forerunner of what might be expected to take place at the Hendersonball park on the after noon of the next day. The fans here and in Henderson were in a high pitch of excitement pending the game in Henderson Wednesday af ternoon. Even our old friend Char les M. Critcher got "het up" and went over to Henderson and paid 50 cents to see the home team defeat Henderson to the tune of 3 to 0. It Is a Sad Tale. , Henderson had not recovered from the dose of Coffey that was handed to them in Oxford the day before They were brave lads and put on a bold front, but when Reece sent the ball over the fence and scored a home run they closed up like Cape May salts on a hot summer day, while the home team pranced around like milk-fed kittens. But this thing cannot exist always, and for the sake of good sport it is well that it should not The Hen derson team is a strong aggregation, composed of fine young men. They are nursing their defeat in silence. With one or two changes in the line up, which they are contemplating, they will give Oxford something to think and talk about Score by innings: R. H. E- Oxford 020 000 1003 10 4 Henderson .000 000 0000 2 1 The Dog, Coon and Fox. : there is an old saying to the ef fect that the dog can whip the coon, the coon can whip the fox and. the fox can whip the dog. This reminds us of the ball game at Horner Park yesterday between Oxford and Rox boro teams. The score was 7 to 0 in favor of Roxboro. 4 Roxboro skunked Oxford, Oxford skunked Henderson the day before, and Hen derson will skin Roxboro alive next week. MISS HARDEE, POSTMASTER AT STEM.

Vi iaCj SHORTAGE The coal consuming . public, both family and industrial, is endangering its ability to se cure coal by not buying and having it delivered now. The production of coal at present is running on a very low basis, because buyers are not in tv'ie market. When the tide . turns and buyers undertake to fill their needs they will find very low stocks and a possible danger of inability. to get coal, such as the country had to endure last winter and the win ter before. It is especially important, therefore, that those who -know in advance that they will need coal later on in the year, should buy it now and have it deliv ered now. It would be a very dangerous experiment to postpone until next fall winter transpor tation of coal or other products uinich must of necessity be used next winter. Moreover, everyone who at the present time buys coal for domestic or industrial purposes will help to turn the tide' of business improvement and while helping themselves will help the country at large FINALS AT OXFORD COLLEGE NEXT WEEK Baccalaureate 'Sermon By Rev.

Mrs. Emma C- Bergdoll, was yesterday sentenced to pay a f fine of $7,000 for the part she was convicted of having taken in the evasion of the draft laws, by her sons, Grover and Erwin Bergdoll. If she refuses or fails to pay the fine, Judge Dickin son of the United States district court imposed the alternative sen tence of one year and one day, in the federal penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga Her fine must be paid by June 13- Judge Dickinson, in pronouncing sentence upon Mrs- Bergdoll declar ed there was no way of ascertaining how much of her guilt was the act "of a fond and foolish mother" and while her motive did not affect her guilt, it might mitigate, the punish ment. Her heaviest punishment, he added, would be the thought that her sons had brought disgrace upon her. - . "No one. would, wish to see a moth er sent to jail for merely helping her sons, guilty as they were," he said. RALEIGH POSTOFFICE ROBBED Eighteen Year Old Boy Arrested For the Theft Of $250,000. Durwood H. Johnson, 18 years old, was arrested in Raleigh Tuesday for the theft of a registered mail pouch containing $250,000- When arrested by Post Office In spector H. C.

Tiro c? . OTMnonnni l-i sr 4--x day. Failure of Congress to provide $250,000 asked for by the prohibi tion commissioner to pay salaries of field agents until the end of the pres ent fiscal year, officials said, neces sitated a cut of about two-thirds in the field forces. The men were given a forty-day vacation without pay, but it was said will be reinstated on July 1, when the appropriations for the next fis cal year become effective. About 500 agents remain on duty, officials said, but many of them are office men. While they expect some dificulty in the strict enforcement of the dry laws with such a reduced staff, the prohibition officers indi cated that aid would not.be asked for from other government sources. Capt. Hutchins, of the "Fljing Squadron." who was in Oxford Wed nesday received a telegram notifying him that his forty days vacation will begin on Saturday. May 20. When he read the telegram he remarked that he needed a little rest anyway. LOCAL POSTOFFICE " SUPPLIED WITH PISTOLS TO QUELL ROBBERS Shots Through a Six Inch Oak Post The government is supplying post offices at least the larger offices, with pistols and postmasters are di rected to arm all "essential" employ es that is, employes believed to be most exposed to danger of attack from mail robbers. The Oxford office is in the list of those supplied with the deadly wea pon. The pistols are here and they are the most ferocious fire arms you ever saw. Assistant Postmaster Henry Critcher has tested the wea pons. They drive a ball through a six inch scantling and then some more. The pistols furnished are not playthings. -They are meant f or bu- -'atiay:n'.nV(mhhfr:.who eets the 0f one of them; will be , put . out of commission and more probab-' ly put into the graveyard. v OBEY THE ORDINANCE There Are Several Danger Points In Oxford. A new "Keep to the Right" post has been erected at the intersection of Broad and Hilsboro streets. A good 'many drivers of automobiles pay no attention to "keep to right" posts or to the stop sighs at the va- -rious streets in Oxford. Why.it is1 that these drivers will place others lives and property in jeopardy no one can figure out It is a good deal cheaper to stop your car than it is to be fined for so simple a thing. A good many strangers come to Ox ford that art not ecquainted with the ordinance requiring that they stop and some do not know why this pre caution is necessary, but for anyone who has lived in Oxford during the past six months, there is no excuse. If Chief Hobgood or any of his men see you disobey this ordinance it simply means that you will have to lay out some of your hard earned cash. FLOWER SHOW AND GARDEN MART WAS A SUCCESS Despite the lateness of the season, which impeded the growth of flow ers, the garden mart and flower show held on the lawn of Mrs. D. G. Brummitt yesterday afternoon was a pronounced success. The most coh spicious of the fine and large dis play were the sweet peas and wild flowers. There was also a nice dis play of vegetables. Vegetable and flower plants were distributed to thos who cared to accept them. The attendance was very good and a nice sum was realized from the sale of refreshments. ' ; ' ! An interesting feature ' was the Scotch dance given by eight young girls from the High School dressed in Scotch plaid. They romped through the "Highland Fling" and won applause. . A list of the flowers' and those who were awarded premiums will be innounced later. - ' CHIEF JUSTICE WHITE DEAD Interment Will Be In Oak Grove .
