Concord, V. C, December 10, 1911.
Thar had already been ginned up
to December 1 more bale of eottoo
than the entire crop has been in any
previous year of the country ' his
tory, except in 1904, 1906 and 1908
and coming within 637,000 bales of
the total ginned in 1904, the record
year. The census bureau's report,
issued Friday, shows that up to the
. first of this month there bad been
ginned 1214,832 bales. It is now
conceded that the crop will reach 15,
000,000 bales. The Greensboro Rec
ord say 81
Raisers of cotton must learn. The
public was led to believe months ago
thai the cotton crop was not going
to be large. When the government
reports appeared, showing there
would likely be a huge crop, there
was instant denial, but the facts ac
cumulated that it .was extremely
large, with the consequence that
prices are very low. In great meas
ure the planters are to blame; they
are responsible for the over-production.
All through South Carolina
fields and fields of cotton remain un
picked. A gentleman who has just
been over the State says he saw with
his own eyes. In one section he saw
eight acres, estimated conservatively
as producing a bale to the acre, that
has not been touched. The owner
says he has offered one-half the crop
for the mere nicking, but cannot get
the labor. Labor is scares, but the
price of cotton is bringing is so low
that workers do not care to take the
job. Had it been possible to gather
the entire crop, the yield would have
been enormous. The best plan for
the farmer is to first raise what he
needs, then put in his time on cot
ton. Instead, thousands of them pat
their all on -cotton.
From labor unions throughout the
country are coming demands that the
$19000- which labor subscribed for
the defense of the McNamaras be re
turned or diverted to some other use.
This cannot be done. Clarence S.
Darrow, chief of counsel for the de
fense, admitted that the major part
of this great sum already has been
expended. Mr. Darrow said that the
$190,000 had been raised and had
been placed in his hands to expend
as be saw fit. Asked if it would be
refunded he said lie did not see how
it could be done. No doubt Darrow
himself cabbaged the biggest part of
tha fund Frank Morrison, secretary
of the American Federation of La
bor and custodian of the McNamara
expense fund, said few days ago:
Clarence Darrow was to receive a
fee of $50,000 and so much per day.
I forwarded all the money to him.
The only word I have had from him
boat mosey was that he wanted
more.
And yet ia the fact of such s show
ing, Darrow said:
I entered this ease unselfishly; I
have for many years given my time
and best ability and my me to-we
cause of labor and the poor.
C. B Hutchison, secretary of the
Missouri Corn Growers'' Association,
a (rest deal of interest in boys'
eon crowing contests such as will be
promoted next summer in Kansas,
Missouri and Oklahoma. He says:
."This natter of 'corn breading,' as
it ha come to be called, offers real
opportunities for the wide-awake boy
who knows good corn when he- tees
it The time is rapidly coming when
ws shall have eon breeders in every
neighborhood from whom .'wsr must
buy our seed corn, just as we now
hava breeders of pure bred animals

Wants His rrssdom.
Hartford, Conn- Dec 9. Among
the thirty-six convicts at the State
prison at Watharafteki, whom-appls-eatiea
for parole el pardon will be
considered by the Stat Board of
Pardons when that board- mists here
next Tsssday, ia John- W arras,- the
oldest inmate of the pnaen, wae has
spent 62 years of his hie in that
penal institution. In the fall of 1858
John Warren was convicted of the
murder of bis wife and sentenced to
prison for rife. Be entered the State
prison at Wethersiald November 14,
1859 and has remained isolated from
the outside world ever since. Sever
al times he appealed to the Board
of Pardons for his release, but in
every esse his application was denied.
This year be has again petitioned for
a pardon and his friends eenldently
expect that this time the Board of
Pardons will be mm obdurate.
The history of Warren's crime is
rather unusual. In the early sum
mer of 1859 John P. Warren, then
only twenty-one years okt, and his
18-year-old wile lived on a am
farm in Willington, a little town in
Tolland county, in the northeastern
part of Connecticut. On a warm
morning in July of that yvsr Warren
and his wife took a walk in the woodB.
It was hot and when they esme to
a brook not far from their farm,
Warren proposed that they take off
their shoes and stockings and batke
their feet in the cool waters of the
brook. His wife consented and, hav
ing taken off her shoes and stockings,
wsden into the brook.
Warren sprang at her, threw her
down and held her head under water
until his wife wss desd. Just whst
fury or passion animated Warren and
prompted him to commit the cold
blooded and apparently unprovoked
crime, has never been ascertained.
Warren himself, although he confess
ed the crime, hss never given any ex
planation of his action or the motive
of the deed. He secreted the body
of his wife in the woods, where it
wss soon found. Warren was arrest
ed and put through the Third De
gree. He confessed his crime, but
refused to make any explanatory
statement.
After a preliminary hearing War
ren's esse was set for the September
term of the Tolland county superior
court. On the night of Wednesday,
August 10, of that year, while eon
fined in the Tolland county jail, War
ren managed to obtain possession of
a big butcher knife, with which he
attacked jailor Qrigga. Warren man
aged to escape, bat was caught short
ly afterward in Eastford, near Wil
limantic The trial of Warren was short The
prisoner plesded guilty snd his at
torney confined himself to a strong
sppeal for the life of his client The
appeal was successful and Warren
was sentenced to imprisonment for
fife. From the very beginning of his
term in the State prison at Wethers
ford Warren wss a model prisoner.
He obeyed the prison rules strictly,
gave no trouble to the warden and
other officials of the prison and tried
to make himself as useful as possible
under the conditions.
After a number of years the War
den, who placed unusual trust in War
ren, relaxed the rigor of the prison
rules to a great extent so far as War
ren was concerned. The prisoner was
made gardener and for many years
he took excellent ear of the flower
garden of the prison and of the
grounds surrounding the official i
idenee of the warden. When ths
present warden, Garvin, came y to
Wethersford prison about fourteen
years ago, he continued to allow to
Warren the privileges which ths for
mer warden had granted him and mot
only retained his an gardener, but al
so placed him in charge of ths furn
ace of ths warden's residence and
mad him av sort of general helpnr
about tha house. , - -
For many years Warren had the
privilege of passing unchallenged
through ths prison galas and fro
quently he spends all day on (aids f
ths prison in ths pursuance of his
garden work, but never did be mass
an attempt to escape or to violate in
any way ths confidence which , tha
warden of ths institution had placed
in him. Ths com pars tivs freedom
which he enjoyed, had a beneficial ef
fect upon Warren's physical and
mental condition. Altnougb ne ss
now mora tfanv seventy-two years of
age, he 'is stil laetive and energetic
snd .looks seareeely more ihsn fifty.
His hair is turning gray, but : he
stoops but little and his still elastic.
In esse ths - Board of Pardons
should re lease Wsrren, his two young
er brothers of Willimantis and his
nephews and cousins, all people of
excellent standing in their respective
communities, are prepared to take
ears ef ths old man, who, aniens his
health should unexpectedly fail, seems
fully able to take ears of himself for
some years to corns. v "

Ths sdvisory board of Iredell
county met with the commissioners
Monday and voted to pay the ebar
man of the county commissioners a
salary for his services. The chair
man of the board, Mr." Mills, stated
that he had done all he proposed to
do without compensation; that he
could not nve so mueh of his time
to road matters and other county af
fairs without pay for the time and
intimated that he would resign un
lesa the pay was forthcoming.
In referring to this the Concord
Tribune says:
"This is a reform that should
speedily spread. Ths work of the
chairman of a board of county com
mission era is arduous, and about the
only thing be gets out of it usually
is a lot -of eussitt' and unpopularity
He should be paid a salary to com
pensate him for his services."
The Post heartily approves what
the Tribune says. Much is expected
of the chairman of the county com
missioners and they should be paid
for it Chairman Beard, of Rowan,
has spent mueh tims and money in
attending drainage meetings in the
interest of the county at his own ex
pense. There ought to be some way
to pay him for his tims, and if it can
be done by an advisory board let 'a
appoint one and get in line with our
neighbor, IredelL
