Marly last week the Stale's at torneys at Washington wen? given auUiority to examine tle exiense accounts of the Southern Railway, which is attempting to show that it cannot affonl to ojierHte trains for avsengers at tle til -cent rate fixeil by thf recent Igislatun. It has Uen intimated forsometime by prominent ieple of the state, ami one newsaper in jmrticular, tiie Kaleigh News ami Observer, that that nail was using money with which to influence Iegu4a tion at 1 1.1 lei h and that it could well alTorJ lo operate at the rate fixed if it would cut down some heavy expenses iaid to different Mrsons to influence legislation. It would seem from some facts brought out last week that these intimations are proving to bo real live truths. It was found that an evening taier in Kaleigh, The Times, had been paid $fl,000 during the year 11HX1 for adver tising, while the Charlotte Ob server ami Washington Post, oth er first-class papers, had received $2i2 and $1,03-respectively, for advertising for the said nad. It was further brought out that when the Utter iapers made out their bills, they were required to hand in itemized bills and copies of the advertisements run for the road. In the case of Thei Times, the vouchers merely stated that thev settled accounts to date. Now what is putting the matter in a much worse aspect. is the fact that the vouchers iaid to The Times, were made out to its president. Senator .John C. Irtwrv. while its business manager, Mr. George B. Crater, states that the money was never iiaid to the pa tier. Inasmuch as the vouchers were made out to Mr. Orewery while his camiaign was in progress and while the legislature was in session, it has Iteen intimated that the money was iiahl to him for a punose. which puriicse was to get him elected and in order to have his influence in the Legislature favor able hi the Southern Railway. Col. A. B. Andrews, the road's first vice-president, worked very hanl during the past session of the legislature to prevent any legis lation not favorable to the road Now each of the vouchers made payable lo Mr. Drewr.v were ap prove 1 by Col. Andrews, and this in itself puts the road in a very bad light. Thus far all attempts to explain by the ac cused arties seem to fall down ami leave them worse otf each time.

Again, as a rule North Carolina mills make coarse goods ami hence require more cot ton jer spindle. The South Car olina mills make fine goods and hence do not use so much raw cotton per spindle. This is a ma terial factor. North Carolina mill managers have not had as much difficulty with labor as the South Carolina mill managers have had. Then, to, the average day in North Carolina has been longer than the average da3 in .South Carolina. I am of the opin ion too that a .small mill can seeun letter production than the big mil although I am not in position to prove this with statistics. When one considers all the fac tors entering into the equation, making allowance for North Car olina's night work, coarse goods products!, Iietler lalor conditions, ami longer hours of work, then one can see how it was that Col onel Hester reorted that the North Carolina mills consumed by tUi.iMl bales more raw cotton than the South Carolina, mills. Of course when one comes to ligun the money value of the finished then that is somthing else. Yes, I am sure that the showdown will prove that Colonel Hester is ac t -urate in his report. !, 1 1 If rt fir tht K itinera anl Dl.l.l-r.

Exchange. ) Not long since I attended a fu neral. A dear friend had passed away Among other incidents I saw a father hold up a struggling little boy that he might look uion the face of the dead. It is doubt ful if the act was a benevolent one. Death had a horror for the child, as it has for all children. Who can tell how many times the thought of that face brought a shudder to the child, but many grown ups can tell how long the picture will remain a vtvid one in the mind; as they can testify that thc3 have not yet lived long enough to obliterate such a picture. Children are in the midst of life, impressive life. Retter let their mental pictures be of life ami beauty. Death scenes will come all too soon at the best. Of course, we all Iflie to be with our dear ones to the last and we linger loug before admitting that we have seen them for the last time, yet it is much sweeter to remeni ler them as thej were in life, than lo have burnt into our own souls how they looked in death. It may lie pleasant to note that their last sleep is sweet and iieaceful, and this may compensate for and justi fy the last look, but the life pict ures bring the happiest memories.

The paramount question in the South is: What is Cotton Worth f ami What will cotton bring The Farmers Union and the Soutlern Cotton Association advised all far mers not to sell a bale before the first of November for less tlian fif teen cents a ounl. Then cotton was selling at thirteen cents. Now it has lieen pressed lower ami the liears an predicting that it will go much lower. Mr. C. C. Moore, President of the Southern Cotton Association, in a letter to the far mers, urges all farmers not to sell for less than fifteen cents and says: 9 A cashier of one of the Rich mond banks tells mu that 15 cents is too much for cotton. He telLs me that cotton can be raised for C cents a pound. I asked him if he ever produced any cotton, and he tells me no; tlierefore he doesn't know cost of production. He is surprised when I tell him that a team of mules costs &J00 against $300 two years ago; labor $1.25 per day now, against CO cents one year ago; he is surprised and tells me that I must be mis taken. "leaving the bank I so on the street. I see a line of street clean ers, and I ask a man who is shov eling trash into a cart, 'What wages do you receive per day?' Two dollars, I am told. 4T see a driver in livery in front of a city flat. I ask, 'What is your wages V He says, twen ty dollars tier month and board. "I ask the shoe shiner, 'What ' do you make a day shining shoes?' He answers, '$2.50 to $3 per day. "If the above be true, then 15 cents is not too much for cotton! Tast September and October we sold cotton at about $45 per lale, and parted with the cotton. This year we can borrow $45 ami still own the cotton, therefore it is poor business to sell under $75 er bale. "Spinners are not on the mar ket and will not U, before Decem ber 1st. Kvery bale sold lie fore Deceinl)er 1st will be bought by simulators, and will le sold to spinners at a profit. Farmers, study your business, and do not listen to Theodore Price.' Mr. J. C. Pendleton, of South Carolina, gives this advice: W e are in possession of facts and data to prove that fifteen cents will not cover the actual cost of production to a considerable ter ritory in cotton in most all the States west of the Mississippi, and also a lot of sections in all the States east of the Mississippi.' Free Space Abuse. tllork Hill Record.) The demand for free advertising is in extent, iiersisteucy and ingen uity beyond ihe belief of any but those who have exjierience in the business. A man who would never think f going into a grocery store ami requesting tlie proprie tor to donate a liarr.d of Hour or into a shoe store and telling the owner that if he. has no objections he thinks he'll help himself to a jiair of shoes will walk confident' into a neuspnjier ofiice and prefer his request for several dollars worth of free advertising and feel mightily offended if refused. The solicitor of free advertising is always sure that the proprietor would Je "glad for something to help hll up the paper." He is just as glad as the groceryman is glad of someone to help carry off his stock without payment. Time and again under the guise, of news items matter is presented which is IN GREAT SALT LAKE. all should be paid for as such. The newspaper proprietor ex pects to furnish a certain amount of free advertiseing to religious, charitable and public enterprises. If he didn't he would be looked on as a heathen, hard-hearted mer cenary, lacking in public spirit. His contribution is accepted as a matter of course, ami rarely is he accorded a word of thanks Sometimes he refuses to donate as much space as the promoter of some enterprise desires, and then he is looked uion as unreasonable and disobliging. The proprietor also expects and is willing to give a little free advertising to those who run paid advertisements in his paper. This is a matter of business courtesy which is rarely abused. Hut with the hordes of solicitors for five advertising which con stantly licsiege the newspaper of fices, with no iossihle claim ujon his courtesies save the hope of get ting something for nothing, the proprietor, has no sympathy what ever. The duties that the newspaper proprietor and editor owe to the public are numerous, diverse and exacting. It is high time the pub lic should understand that these do not include the sacrifice of a consi derable amount of valuable space for the benefit of individuals or enterprises which give nothing in return U a nun Belags Become Merely Corks Waen They Bathe There.

(The Journal.) , Curious Foreign Oaths, (Daltliuore Sun.) When a Chinaman swears to tell the truth he kneel6 down and a saucer is given him. The follow ing oath is then administered him: "You shall tell the truth and the whole truth. The saucer is crack ed and if you do not tell the truth your soul will be cracked like the saucer," when he breaks the sau cer. Other symbolic variations of the Chinese oath are the extin guishing of a candle or cutting off a cock's head, the light of the can dle representing the witness soul and the fate of the cock rep resenting the fate a perjurer's soul. In certain parts of India tigers and lizards' skins take the place of Bibles of Christian countries and the ienalty of breaking the oaths is that iu one case the witness will jecoinc the prey of a tiger and in the other that his body will be cov ered with scales like a lizard. In Norwegian courts of law the irelude of the oath proper is a ong homily on the sancity of the oath ami the terrible consequences of not keeping it.

Instead they ought to welcome them, for they develop strength and character. The youth who is afraid of olistacles and retreats or surrenders when he encounters them, will never be of much force in life's work. Youth is the age of vigor and strength. "I write unto you, young men, because you are strong." But what is potential force worth if it is al lowed to remain inactive? To have high ideals is a grand thing, but what are ideals worth to him who does nothing to realize them? Two young men begin life to gether, assessing equal oppor tunities. The one has a noble ideal before him of imfluence, power, and worth, and with the idea is a spirit of determination that says, "I will realize that ideal,' and by sheer force of de termination he brushes aside all barriers and hinderances and achieves a glorious name and ac complishes a mighty work. The other young man has the same ex alted aim, but he says to him self, "I have too many forces against which to contend. I can never be what I want to be." Content, listless, without vigor, he remains where he is all the davs of his life. Youth is the and time, what can one acheive for himself, for his fellowmen and his God! of his fearful responsibility the atre for decision and vitality.

The Charlotte Observer speaks wisely in saying that certain mod ern evangelists derive their pop ularity and draw their crowds be cause of their fluency in abusing people. "Whenever," says The Observer, ' one of them has es tablished a reputation for vulgari ty and knocking, he gets crowds, and he gives out that on a certain evening he will attack a certain in dividualorinstitution thehouse will not hold the people who flock to hear him." And this type or preacher imagines he is as brave as John the Baptist, when in truth he is the biggest coward alive. He knows that he is safe behind the bomb proof pulpit that he dis graces and no brave man would take advantage of a situation like that to belabor and abuse people he would not dare meet in the open. Gentleness and courtesy II . I . 1 A I are not in an the thoughts or these vulgarians, but often all these qualities are still shining marks of the minister. The Wife Mistress at Home. The Supreme Court of Nebraska has decidod that a wife "is mis tress in her own home," but most of us didn't need the Supreme Court of Nebraska or any other court to tell us what we already know. In the Nebraska c-ftte a mother-in law was the trouble. The husband's mother entered the home and tried to run it. The wife objected, as was natural, but thehusbaud either couldn't help it or permitted his mother to con tinue to boss. Therefore the wife left and sued her husband for separate maintenance. He resist ed on the ground that she had left his home. The Nebraska Supreme Court sustains the wife. It says: "Every wife is entitled to a home to correspond with the cir cumstances and conditions of her husband, over which she will be permitted to perside as mistress. A wife does not forfeit her right to maintenance by refusing to live in a home with and under con trol of the husband's mother." The decision is correct. The wife is entitled to a home in which she should be the head. Remember, young man, if you are not satisfied with your job, the chances are that the boss will not refuse to accept your resignation. Kecord-Herald. Paul's. ! A row hflnmrintr to Mr .Tosenh Tomberlin of this township died suddenly one day last week. A post mortem examination was made and a sewing needle was found in the cow's heart. Mrs. T. B. Goodman of Polk ton, who has been in the hospital in Charlotte for sometime, was brought to the home of her moth er, Mr. II. C. Moore at Hock Rest 'last Saturday. Her health was not improved and she is unable to be up. The case of Mr. I). I)eese of this township against the Seaboard for the death of his son, Mr. Ixis ter Deese, which occurred in Iee county April 26, IDOn, was com promised by his attorneys, Messrs. Williams & Lemmond, at San ford last wook. Tho road paid Mr. Deese $5,000. Armfield's mill, six miles south of Monroe in Buford township, was burned. Thursday morning about L2 o'clock. The origin of the fire is not known, and the lire was pretty much over the building when it was discovered; The plant consisted of a ginnery, a grist mill, and a saw mill. The engine and boiler can be used again. The mill was owned, by Messrs. Davis and Kufus Armfield and I. F. and W. A. Plyler, the latter being in charge, and was worth about '2,500. The projer- ty was insured for 1,000. f (Our Home) Miss Eula Faulkner of Anson county, is visiting her sister, Mrs. Anna Griffin. A few days ago Mr. Will Gath ings of Wingate, saw a Monroe automobile coming meeting him. He quickly drove out into a cot ton patch and jumied out of his buggy and went and got hold on the bridle reins with one hand, holding the lines in the other hand. When the machine passed him his mule jerked loose the bri dle reins. Mr. Gathings then set himself with the lines, but he saw there was danger of being drag ged, and he turned the mule loose. Down the road it went at full speed, trying to catch the auto mobile, and braying at every jump. Mr. Gathings let out af ter the mule, calling to the auto mobilest to "stop that mule," but they didn't hear him. After fol lowing the machine and braying at intervals for half a mile, the mule stopped without having made a break in the harness or vehicle. Mr. Gathings said he was excited when the mule began to bray and "burn the wind" down the road after that machine, and he made about as much noise ! as the mule did. A DESERVING MAN Though Forced to Do Time on the Chaln?ansr. Is Now A Good Clllen In Wadesboro there fives a man who deserves credit for the record he has lecn making dining the past year, most of which he spent in a convict's stripes. About a year ago, troubled by Ian indict ment which hung over him, he fc gan to consider tho worth lessnoss of the life he was liinnjr. His early life was amid surroundings' not at all conducive to correct moral training and he grew to manhood, became a husband ami father, half of his threefscore-und-ten vears lived out with a reputa tion for nothing in j particular but drinking bouts and (rowdyism. Never having been taught . the great moral principles which dom inate all successful lives, and un able to read and thus irjform him--self, he was at a disadvantage. But when in a drunken row, and smarting under a fancied injury, - he. used n follow crouturo quit badly, he stopped to third;, and then it was that the best part of his nature, dormant sio long, as serted itself and he began to view life from its serious side and to measure his past with its wssibil ities. He joined a church with a resolve to live a life worth while. The time came on for hjs trial and, contrary to his own desires, his lawyer fought the case instead of submitting and asking; mercy of the court. The result was th:.t he had to don the striJeslfor " half u year and do service on the roads, where his former associates might daily liehold his disgrace. Though the prosecuting witness in the cas was as much thej aggressor, anil deserved as much punishment, he went to pay the lawfs demands without a murmur. During his confinement he learned to read his Bible and discovered iabout it a charm which held him n its spell. His wife and children refused to desert him in his deep disgrace,. cheer him Perfectly ieiiors, he but came to visit and while he did his time, submissive to his k served out his time and returned to the anxious embrace of those who always looked beyond the stripes and saw the manhood which others failed to discover, and to-: day he is happy in his jhoimj and, with his wife's encouragement anil the laughter of his children to cheer him, he is "making good" whatever the past holds against him. Again we say, considering his ' opportunities, or rather a lack of them, he deserves some credit. is 1C REPARED FOR YOU!! 1-1 AnH A!11 Each Purchaser lO PlM Buggies and Wagons Bought From Us !
