removed him as a possibility.
This is Mr. Holton’s 4th appo

One of the hardest duties
in the world is to fill the news
columns of a local paper with
interesting items when there
is renlly 110 news to write. It
is for more vexing and perp
lexing than a person who has
never had any experience in
newspaper work can well im
agine. The paper must come
out on time, and the reading
matter has to be supplied from
some source. When the brain
of tie editor becomes worry,
mind inactive and bis faithful
scissors dull, is it for you im
agi lie, any child’s play for
him to probe the gas-bags of
imagination and bring fourth
a column or more af original
“wind” that will both edify,
delight and instruct his read
ers? Verity the life of a
; country edttor is full of trials
troubles and perplexions like
: the wicked, he is doomed to
1 ot half his da}as.
Farmers Will Pool
Tobacco Crop 1911
Although not officially giv
en out it is reliably stated that
the tabacco growers of the sta
te in session in Winston Fri
| day 13th, passed a resolution
calling upon the growers to
pool the 1911 crop upon the
plan of the burley growers of
Kentucky.
The resolution also calls for
the establishment of a dry pri
zery to faciliate the handleing
of the crop. A second resolu
; lion was passed, it is said, by
j which the growers agree to
i decrease the acerage of the
1911 crop. This resolution
was followed by a refusel to
offer prizes for the largest yie
lds per acre, because the prin
cipal of offering prizes for the
increased yields is in direct
opposition to the movement
for decreased acerage.

WILKES CITIZENS FIGHT IN
WKll
Wilkes Patriot.
“Leave ’em alone and let
scrap it out!” did not have to
be said to a couple of combata
nts who engaged themselves
in a few rounds here Monday.
The pugilists in question were
John Minton and Nelson Fos
ter and the fight took place in
the bottom of a 6o-foot well,
The}' were both down in a j
well at Hotel Smithy putting
in a new wall, when they fell
out—not out of the well, but
with each other. There were j
only two spectators, and reith
er of these felt inclined to go
down and act as pacificator.
One of the onlookers, howe
ver, whose veracity please un
derstand, is not to be questio
ned. says that the fight only!
stopped when when he tied a
pair of pot hooks to the well
rope and fished Nelson out. He
further avers as Nelson was
making his unwilling ascent
John grabbed him by the heel
pulling off his shoe, which lie
hurled after his wriggling ad
! versary. NO ,011, in turn, bid
I John adieu with a quid of well
! chewed “Brown’s Mule.”
