TOOK THE STEP IN TIME.
Raleigh is having a "mad dog scare
now due to the recent illness there of a
child who had been bitten by a mad dog.
Police officers in the capital city are
combing the streets for stray dogs and
all canines who can not show a vaccina
tion tag are shot on the spot.
The trouble in Raleigh is due to one
sact —the campaign against mad dogs
was not started soon enough. One of the
tragedies of life is that we are prone to
wait until some one pays tbe penalty be
fore we are wiping to break a prece
dent. Te capital city lias had a law
against dogs running at’large without be
ing vaccinated against rabies for some
time, but it was never enforced. We
are accustomed to dogs on the streets and
the people of Raleigh just let the matter
go oil as it had been going.
But the death of the boy from rabies
awoke tbe city. The danger of the mad
dog was brought close home to the eit
izeus and isilice officers were made to be
gin a campaign that has ns its goat the
death of every dog that cannot show a
bill of health.
The aldermen of Concord last year took
a very wise step when they ordered all
dog owners in the city to have their dogs
vaccinated or kept at. home. I’oliee of
ficers shot many dogs found wandering
on the streets. As a result of the law
and the activities of the police not a sin
gle ease of rabies was reported in Con
cord last year.
The aldermen this year passed a law
similar to the one passed Hast yea-4
Since lavt year citizens of the city had
time to appreciate the merits of the law
and it was necessary for the officers to
kill only ft very few dogs this year. Peo
ple have learned the true value of the
law and they were glad to co-operate with
the officers.
While local officers have been diligent
in seeing that this law has been enforced
they should not 'get indifferent to it now
that It has been in force for several
mouths. This is the very time of the
year when dogs as a rule are affected
with rabies und for that reason the offi
cers should be unusually observant for
fear some stray d-og will get by and start
an epidemic among dogs that might
lead to the death of some child.
It costs only SI.OO to get a dog vacci
nated in Concord and persons who do
not care enough about their fellow citi
zens to be willing to spend a dollar to
make their dog immune from rabies and
rhereb.v mnke him safe, should not be
allowed to have one. Dogs are fine pets,
i but all of them are not worth the life of
one child.
THEY GET THE BENEFIT.
If anyone wants to know who profits
from the cotton crop forecasts of the
federal government just l let \ him v wa.Ub
the cptton markets on tW/Ws« theXfore
cf*ts£are made. 4 Tgke the’ Jtwt forecast,
for ' iiistiiieef ; : CottStf ’on the New Or
leans market jumped $7.50 a hale and .
on the New York market *5.00.
Some weeks ago the first forecast for
the year was announced, this prediction J
calling for a crop of inore than 14,000-
000 bales. Now the second forecast
comes along with a prediction of 13,-
538,000 and immediately the market
jumps.
Another big change is likely to take
place when the third forecast is made J
next month. No one knows just what it
willy be but in all probability it will be
radical enough to change the price, and 1
some one else, gambling on the market,
will get rich.
There is no certainty to the cotton
crop until the staple is ginned. It is un
impossibility to tell anything definite at
this time of the year, this being clearly
shown by the changes made in the fore
casts from time to time.
The President might as well get ready
to talk to the coal oi>erators and miners.
They seem determined to disagree on
wage terms, with each side blaming the
other as is always the case in labor dis
putes. The Federal government should
see to it that this country is not embar
rassed with a strike just at the beginning
of winter, and the President and his
spokesmen can let the disagreeing parties
understand the government’s attitude in
time to prevent a tieup. ,
SAYS SOUTH NEEDS
SOUTHERN LEADERS
Dr. Chase Declares Only Those Who
Know Southern Conditions Can Train J
Youth Properly.
Dr. H. W. Chase, president of the
University of North Carolina, discussed
problems before the South in an inter
view published in the New York Times
Tuesday. 'Dr. Chase, who sailed yester
day. on the steamship America for a six
weeks' tour abroad, told the New York
newspaper that what the South needs is
southern leaders.
“There exists in the South today." he
is quoted as liaviug said, "a very definite
need of facilities for investigation equal
to the best anywhere in the country
in the whole field of what might be celled
■human relationship'—-its social and oeon-'
omic problems, those of law. education.)
political science and government, social .
history, sot-jology aiid public welfare. All
these: are before tbe South as it passes
through its,. slvift period of transition to
a new order/" •
“The need for trained leadership in ail,
these fields is acute, and—this is the in-1
teresting point—training in these lines
can be he.st given to southern youth at
southern institutions by men who either
by education or adoption’have become fa
miliar with southern conditions. This
isn't provincialism. It is a simple state
ment of fact. Take, for example, educa
tion.: Teachers Who are at work in the
southern schools ought to be able to get
not merely elem'hntary but the most ad
vanced sort of training under instructors
who know about schools and educational
renditions in the South with it* charac
teristic background and problems. Yet
there is in the Soul'll only one school of
education that has a more than local
appeal, and that is on the other side of
the mountains.
“Again, with all its interest in law.
there has never been in the history of the
South but one law school strong enough
to earn a reputation beyond t’lie borders
of its own state. Something is lost us
long as men who are ambitious for the
best sort of legal training feel it neces
sary to go out of tlie South to get it.

he had been attacked by a bull, the farm

“Hello, Pat.” he said. “I heard you had

Pat scratched hi* head aud grinned.
“Sore your honor,” he said, “it was a

“I want some collars for my husband,
said Mrs. Golde. “but I am afraid I
have forgotten the size."
“Thirteen and a half, ma'am?” sug
gested the shop assistant.
“That's it. How did you know?”
“Men who let their wives buy their
collars for them _are always about that
size, ma’am." explainer! the observant
salesman.

It was in the far South.
"How’s times?” asked the tourist.
“Pretty tolerable, stranger.” responded
the old fellow. Who was sitting idly on
the stump of a tree. "I had a pile of
brush to burn and the lightning set fire
to it and saved me the trouble of burn
ing it up.
“I had some trees to cut down, but
the cyclone leveled them and saved me
the trouble."’
“Remarkable! But what are you do
ing now?”
“Waiting for an earthquake to come
along and shake the potatoes out of the
ground.”
“lhes your budget help you to save
any money?”
“Certainly. By the time we get it

! Beggars Grumble About Competition Re
ducing Receipts.
Chicago. July 22.—Chicago beggars re
ceive from $5 to more than sll a day
and they are complaining because “busi
ness' is falling off owing to competition, j
The figures were made public tonight
by K. 11. Freiund. vv'io conducted an in
vestigation for tlie social service aduiin
i-jration of tlie 1 niversity of t Itieago.
The incomes ran as high as S2O a day. ]
Freiuml observed ten Chicago beggars (
for a total of 647 minutes and saw them j
receive $420 contributions.
He estimated the average contribu- i
ticn at seven cents and found beggars i
receive $2.42 an hour. For an eight
hour hady. he estimate dthis group re
ceived $11.46 each.
Forty-three merchants interviewed
showed an average of $2lO to $234 a day
for the group.
"Old timers." however, were indignant
in their assertions that beggars from
other cities are usurping the field and
that "business" is being ruined by so
many entering it. Receipts two years
ago were much larger.
Because of migratory habits, no esti
mate as to tlie number of beggars in the
city was given.

TOOK OLD SOIJHER’S
MONEY AFTER DEATH
Former Matron of Virginia Soldiers
| Homo Draws Thrte-Year Sentence.
I Richmond. Vn.. July 23.—For forging
the name of Jcaepli Howard, confederate
veteran, of Tazewell. Va., to two checks
totaling $1,125 and drawing out of a
I local bank that amount of money which
he had on deposit. Mrs. Harriet Stuart
i I’aukhurst, 54. former matron of the
Confederate soldiers home, was given a
penal tern .of three years when arraing
ed in hosting court today. Sentence,
however, was suspended.
Mis. Pankhurst plead guilty to the
charge. She forged the cheeks nnd drew
out the money after the death of
Howard which centred April 10. last, at
the soldiers homo. Mrs , Pankhurst, who
was matron at. the institution gs the
time, learned - from papers in’ the
veternn’q trunk that he had the money in
the bank. The 'bank in cashing the
cheeks did not know that he was dead.
Concealed in Mrs. Pankhurst’s stocking
after her arrest, police found $540 in
greenbacks.
Howard, it developed, had directed
that the account be transferred at his
death to two nieces living at Tazewell.

Post and Flagg’s .Cotton Letter. |
New Yoik, July 23.—The government j
cotton report proved a grave surprise to <
the trade, and it is difficult, if not '
quite impossible, to reconcile such fig- '
vires with the best private advices re
garding the progress of the crop in the
various states. That Texas should lose
eight points is not . surprising, but few
are able to credit that Oklahoma has ac- 1
tually lost 12. or that every other state, !
with the exeeptiou of the Carolina*, i
has lost from one to five or site points ’
the past two weeks. It looks that either ,
the last report was too high, or this one i
two low. or that an effort is being made \
to correct in an indirect manner an over
estimate of the acreage, which many
regard as a gross exaggeration of the
facts. The figures, however, will be ac
cepted ns the best index of present pros- j
pectß, and many bring in more support
which in the absence of any important
hedge selling mny carry prices higher
for a time. It would appear, however,
that unless the report strongly stimu
lates the demand for yarns and cloths
at advancing prices and so enables mills
to buy more freely, those who go long
on thisbn'ge may fiend only a limited
demand when the time comes that they
would like to secure profits. The chief
lesson taught by the rejiort is not to ac
cept any figures from private authori
ties as in any way foreshadowing what
the official figures are likely to be. One
authority gets close to it on one oc
casion and another on another, but is
very likely to be the farthest away the
next time.
With the limited improvement in
trade so fur it is by no means saie to
follow advances from such a level ds
they rest upon foundations far from
secure nnd prices may come crashing
down again on the next report from any
goint at which they may happen to be
at. the time.
