W. and Lawrence Parrish I s Dismissed; Otha John son Found Not Guilty Because of the prominence of the persons named in the suit and because the crime was committed in the name of the Ku KIux Klan, the ifca.se of the State against D. \Y. Parrish, Lawrence Parrish, and George Otho Johnson tried yesterday in the Johnston County Su perior Court, was attended by considerable public interest. The three defendants were charged with assault with deadly weapon upon J. Telfair Lee of Meadow township, the prosecuting witness, and with assault upon female, Mrs. J. Telfair Lee; but after spend ing an entire day in introduc ing evidence, the suit against l). W. Parrish and Lawrence Parrish was thrown out of court, these defendants being dismissd, and th jury brought in a verdict of not guilty in the suit against George Otho John The first witness put on the stand yesterday morning was the prosecuting witness, J. Telfair Lee, who told how, on the night of May 25th last, near midnight, five men wearing the regalia of the Ku Klux Klan, entered the room in which he and his wfe were sleeping, rough ly routed him from his bed. for cibly took him a distance of a mile or more from his home, and severely flogged him with a razor j strap. Lee alleged that on the j way to the place where he was flogged, he recognized the fea tures of two of his captors, D. W. Parrish and Lawrence Parrish, as the breezes blew the masks off their faces. George Otho Johnson was brought under indictment by the testimony of Mrs. Lee who stated that she identified him, when, in a tussle at her door, she partly disclosed his face. She further al leged identification both from his voice and a peculiar gait which characterizes Johnson. I he defense introduced evidence that proved a satisfactory alibi for both I). W. and Lawrence Parrish, and soon after the court, had resumed the case after supper last night, a motion under the Ma son Act, known to the law profes sion, was offered and accepted to dismiss these two defendants. The case of Johnson was left to the jury for decision. Johnson, who proved a good character, account ed, before the court, for his where abouts on the night of May 25th, from eight-thirty until twelve o’clock, a number of witnesses tes tifying as to how he spent the evening. The evidence was a’.l in by nine o’clock last night and each side was allotted thirty minutes in which the lawyers might argue the case. Col. E. S. Abell made the speech for the defense, while James Raynor spoke for the state. Other lawyers who were retained by the defense were L. L. Levin son, of Benson, Hannibal Godwin, of Dunn, and' F. H. Brooks. The jury was out only a short time before returning to the court room and announcing the verdict of not guilty.

Hime, Plant Breeder at State College Discus ses Cost of Cotton Pro duction .Raleigh, Dec. 20.—When the price of cotton is below the cost : of producing it, t-Khar the cost of production must be lowered or far mers should stop ^vowing the “ We are apt to pay. little atten- ! lion to the cost of production, when j cotton is bringing a good price.” j says P. H. Kime, plant breeder at ! State College. “So long as we are making a fair profit, we do not seem to care about these costs. Now that cotton is actually bring ing less than it cost us to grow it. however, the cost of production ! must be lowered or we should stop | growing the crop. We can reduce the cost per pound by growing more pounds per acre. A good plan to follow will be to reduce the acreage and make more coton on the land which we devote to its cultivation.” One good way to produce more j cotton per acre is to use good seed ; of standard varieties, states Mr. 1 Kime. In tests made with twelve j different varieties of cotton during the past season, the yields ran all th eway from 412 pounds of lint per acre to 535 pounds of lint per acre. The length of staple varied with the variety. ^ j it costs as much to produce 400 ) pounds of lint from the King va riety which has a staple of seven eighths of*an inch as it did to f! produce 535 pounds from the . Cleveland variety which has a sta ple of one and five-sixteenths inches. The only difference was in the cost of picking-. Suppose, states Mr. Kime, that it cost 12 cents per pound to produce 535 pounds of lint per acre from the Cleveland 1 variety. This is a cost of $04.20 ‘ per acre. Dividing this by 4G5 i pounds, we g-et 13.8 cents which is the cost of producing a pound of > In it from King cotton, i Good seed, states Mr. Kime, - can be secured at a cost of about - $1.50 per acre above the cost of * ordinary seed. Fourteen pounds of . lint cotton at 11 cents per pound , will pay this additional cost. Cleve . land cotton yielded 70 pounds of , lint more than King. This 70 . ‘pounds at 11 cents is $7-70 or a 400 per cent return on the invest r ment. s - k 0 d d :o 3. d il n n r. te ;o ‘S ie MICRO QUINT WINS OVER KENLY TOSSERS Micro, Dec. 18.—Micro basket ball team journeyed over to Kenly Friday night where they handed the strong Kenly town team the small end of a 10 to 6 score.
