With "Roosevelt and insurgency' for the battle cry in their fight for re election next fall, the House progres sives are planning to sweep Theodore Roosevelt into the midst of the terri fic campaign which confronts them, says a recent Washington dispatch Hitherto secret information; upon which the insurgents base their as surance of Roosevelt's active support in the fight against "Cannonism" be came available Wednesday. The sit uation revives an unpublised report made to the insurgent organization in caucus in March, 1909, by the insur gent executive committee charged with the mission of obtaining the indorse ment of Roosevelt for the insurgent policies in those strenuous closing days of the strenuous Administration The following statements, incorpo rated in that report and known for over a year to every House insurgent, are here made public for the first time. ' On March 3, 1909, Theodore Roose velt proposed to give Representative Nelson, chairman of the insurgent executive committee, a letter, in dorsing the fight on Cannon and the House rules. He expressed himself as thoroughly in sympathy with the pro gressive movement, particularly an the fight against Cannon, as he said: "Cannon has been the greatest ob stacle in the way of my efforts to se cure good legislation for the people of the country throughout the seven years of my administration." On March 4, after spending the evening of March S with President elect Taft, he begged to be excused from Writing the letter. As a ground for his change of purpose he said that from conversations with Taft he was afraid such a course would embarrass his successor. One of the last acts of Roosevelt's administration, as he stood in the President's room in the Senate wing of the Capitol, 'was to take Represent atives Gardner and Nelson by the hand, lead them over to Taft, and to plead with the President-elect to take up the insurgent cause. The Dredging Machine. Charlotte Chronicle. , Catawba county led off in a fine piece of work when it bought dredg ing machines, opened the channel of Clark's creek and., reclaimed thous ands of acres ofand, upon which bumper crops of corn will be raised this year. 'If 'was-)in object lesson to the farmers of many counties in this part' of the State who have suffered the loss of fine bottom lands, and they -have been shown how these lands can be reclaimed and again brought into fertile productivity. Rowan, Iredell and Cabarrus counties have been in vestigating, but Caldwell county has acted. The Lenoir News says: "Last week an order was placed for a com plete dredging outfit to be used by the Lower-"Greek Draining Company, The contract, provides for the ship ment of the outnt;Jwitbin 30-days, so this . injportant work, is assured and will be. commenced in a short time." These fredging machines cost a good deal of "money, but 'the results far overshadow the cost. Every county whose streams are in need of dredging can secure the machines on the plan adapted by . Catawba and Caldwll counties the organization of dredg ing companies, rne cost is divided up among the farmers and amounts to quite a light burden. ...There is no doubt that within the . next twelve months, dredging operations will be conducted on a large, scale iin the counties named. . . . - Small Fire This Morning. There was a small fire today about noon' at the house occupied by Mrs. M. C. Faggaft.on. Powder street. The. roof, overi the kitchen caught ike from the stove flue, but the -blaze i was ex tinguished by the firemen before much damage was done. The household ef fects of Mrs. Faggart Tvere badly damaged by water, and this damage was much greater than that caused by the blaze. Mrs. Faggart had made a fire in the kitchen stove about 11:30 and in a short while some of her neighbors discovered the blaze. The alarm was promptly turned in, and the firemen- soon had the blaze under control The house was the property of.Mp. Robert Barnes. ' ' ." . -i-i, n, ; ,u. .

A SONG OF REUNION. The following poem, written bv Rev. Plato T. Durham, of Concord, ap pears in the current issue of The Out look: The years have wrought their miracle; America is one ; The dream of Lee and Lincoln, out of light and shadow spun, Has come to long fulfillment, aud their shining task is done. Our dead are not forgotten; we keep virgil o 'er their dust, We sing their deeds in deathless song and hold their fame a trust Till Time, the final judge, shall write a judgment that is just. But America, our mother of sorrow- chastened sotfl, Has called, and we are coming from the years of bitter dole, Forgiving and forgiven" writ across the darkened scroll. And to her fields of battle where the light and night oppose, Where wrong and right are marshal ing their lines of ancient foes, We follow where America's out- streaming banner goes. And marching to the star-sown flag, this song of war we sing; The sword of Lee to battle for America we being,, And Jackson's rankers answer where her far-bloyji. bUgles ring. And when upon the battlefield the vic tory is. thine, When high above the death of wrong the blazoned stars shall shine, Look thou for us, America, along the ioremost line.
