Richmond, Va., May 22.—A sudden
nfcavy and pro.onged rainstorm pre
vented the initial presentation in this
city tonight of the pageant drama de
picting the history of Virginia from
the establishment in May 1607, of the
first English settlement in America
ct Jamestown. A large audience was
in the huge open air amphitheater
and the performers were assembling
for the prologue when the downpour
suddenly desoeaded in torrents and
dorve every one to cover.
Tne first day of the pageant was
marked by two more or less serious
mishaps, in which the Governor ot
Virginia figured as the principal ac

At about the same time the Gover

SATANIC SHOWS HOW A KIOWA
CHIIfF CAN DIE
CCVJOW I will show you how a chief
can dlel" ahouted Satank of
tbo Klowas to the soldiers aa he tor*
off the ahacklea In which they were
leading him away to prison. "I call
upon Those-Above to wltneaa that I
die like a man unafraid. But Ido not
go alone. I take with me one of theae
white men upon the Long Trail."
He drew a knife which he had con
cealed upon Ma person and plunged
the blade Into the aide of one of hia
guards. The next moment he fell to
the ground riddled with bulleta. Aa
he fell he waa alnglug hia death aong.
He gave one laat defiant warwhoop,
then died.
Satauk (Het-angya—Sitting Bear),
who was both a chief and medicine
rn, was the leader of the Ka-ltsenko
"Real Dogs," the highest military
order In the tribe. Thla was a aelect
body of ten of the bravest warrior*
who were pledged to lead every dea
perate charge und to keep their place
In tbe forefront of battle until they
won victory or death.
Once In a fight with the Pawneea,
Set-angya engaged an enemy and waa
about to stub him with a lance when
his foot slipped on the snow. The
Kiowa chief fell and the Pawnee sent
an arrow through Sutank's upper Hp.
This wound left a lifelong scar, al
though It was not easily seen, for Ba
tank wore a mustache, a rare thing
among -the Indians. This Incident
Showed the Importance of Satank In
his tribe, for the calendar history of
the Klowas, a plctographlc record of
their great deeds, gives It as the lead
lug event of 184H-47 and that year Is
known as "the wlntA- when they shot
the mustache." "
In 1870 Sntank's son was killed
while raiding In Texas. The old chief
went down Into that state, gathered
the bones In a bundle und brought
them back. Ever afterward lie carried
them about with hint on a special
horse, kept them on a special plat
form erected In his tepee and gave
feasts In honor of his sou. "My son In
hot dead; he Is sleeping," he would
explain to the old men who gathered
about the Are with him.
The next year, In company with 8a
tatitu und Big Tree, the Sitting Bear
led s war party Into Texas, attacked u
wagon train and killed seven white
men. Wbeu he returned to Fort 8111
he boasted of the deed to Qeneral
Sherman, who was visiting there. Bher
man ordered the arrest of the three
chiefs. On May 28, 1871, when the
military started to take Satank to
Texas for trial as -a murderer, h«
showed them "how a chief can die."
Operatic Company
For Chautauqua
Music lovers of this vicinity will
welcome the announcement which
has come from the ChautaucfUa
management that they will close
their week's program, soon to begin
here, with a full evening's concert
by the Colonial Operatic Company.
A quintet of talented vocalists
compose this company and their
program will offer ade
quate scope to their abilities. In
tne first part they will feature a
group of Engliafc motion songs, in
the second, a potpourri of the hits
from the popular and light operatic
successes of "not so long ago," in
the thin}, they will present that
well-known ana perhaps best-loved
of the short operas, "Cavelleria
Rusticana."
Prospective ticket buyers will
need to note that a special price
of SI.OO is scheduled for this event
and, if they buy season tickets,
this extra tax will be avoided.
Aa other event for the last day
is a "real honest-to-goodness Punch
and Judy show," by Professor Will

ally tens of thousands of people by
the antics of his puppets. Roth in
this country and abroad (where he

command) he enjoys a reputation
made excellent by his forty years
experience. to
Of course a most important
event of the last day and also of

THE HIGHEST PRICE
Tot the editor:
Dean Thomas Cooper of the Ken
tucky Agricultural College and Ex
periment station, has just sent me
the following paragraph from an of
ficial announcement by the State Com
missioner of Agriculture of Kentucky:
"Tobacco sold by the Burley Co
operative Tobacco Makrcting Asso
ciation brought an average of $29.00
a hundred pounds as compared with
an average of $21.25 for tobacco sold
initependently, according to an an
nouncement made hene today by W.
C. Hanna, Commissioer of Agricul
ture.
"Tobacco sold by the cooperative as
sociation up to March 1 totaled 20,-
675,455 pounds which brought $5,-
995,961.54, while tlue tobacco sold in
dependently amount to 59,837,048 lbs.
the sale value of which wa.% $10,588,-
679.16.
"Since March 1 approximately 40,-
000,000 pounds of the association to
bacco have been marketed, according
to Commissioner Hanna, at prices far
above those received for tobacco sold
independently."
1 notice that the gentlemen who are
fighting: cooperative marketing are
spending a lot of money advertising
the fact that a certain Mr. Oettingcr
who formerly lived in North Carolina,
and is now in Kentucky, is not ut all
pleased with cooperative marketing.
Now it just happens that Mr. Oet
tinger is not very widely known in
North Carolina and thero is nothing
to indicate that his views may not
be highly colored by his personal proj
udices or by business affiliations un
favorable to cooperative marketing.
On the other hand, Dean Thomas Coop
er, of the Kentucky Agricultural Col
lege anil Experiment Station and Hon.
W. C. Hanna, State Commissioner 6f
Agriculture, are men known not onl>
in Kentucky but all over America,
for ability, patriotism and for care
fulness and accuracy in all their
statements.
The gentlemen who are Ighting co
operative marketing ought not to l*
so much annoyed because the farmers
of North Carolina prefer to accept
definite and official statements made
by sue houtstanding authorities in
prefeience to the unsupported criti
cisms in an advrtisement paid for by
interests fighting cooperative market
ing.—Clarence Poe in News and Og

General James Mac Gill, commis
sioned Brigadier General by General
Gordon, C. S. A., commanding the
Second Brigade of Virginia, Confed

•at our generation. General Mac Gill
has recently signed the Ave year con
tract of the Tobacco Growers Coop

Our leaders who served under the
stars and bars, are with us still, point
ing the way in the advance of 70,000
Touthern fighters for economic free
dom.
In the following letter to Oliver J.
Sands, Executive inanuger of the To
bacco Growlers Cooperative Associa
tion this leader of the Confederacy
tells why he wishes to join the organ
izing planters of Virginia and Caro
linas.
"Dear Mr. Sands:
"I am glad to see that the Tobacco
Association oJ the State of Virginia
has gone into this organization, and
hop* they will effect one that will be
of benefit to the farmres of the coun*
try.
I was in th tobacco business for a
number of years in Pittsylvania and
Henry Counties, and after finding out
that all of my product was under the
control of tobacco warehousemen and
the farmers were forced to take the
price the/ set for the tobacco, I with
drew fro mthe tobacco business and
went into the stoek business in Pu
laski county where I could raise Just
what crops as I could consume on my
place, arid not submit to the tobacco
warehousemen or commission mer
chants.
I do not think the farmers will
really get their dues, or will suc
ceed, until this organization is per
fected. I have always contended that
the farmers could get together and
manage their business just as bankers
or other organizations are bedng man
aged and until they do this, they will
never succeed in the tobacco business.
Yours very truly,
JAMES MacGILL.

The -luimers therefore are the

No one of intelligence and informa
tion will dispute the statement that
tilt farmers are the foundation of civ
ilization. The decline andf all of tho
great Komun Empire, begun with the
oppression of hvr farmers, it will

earnest consul*:ration and that need
ful changes should be made, and the

tenancea nd furtheranceof their stv
erai special interests and business. In
the long list of business combinations
and associations, thert is one most
conspicious by is absence, the grand
est and greatest of them all. Agri
culture. It matters not in what held
the farmer labors, he lias a scant say
as to the disposition of the fruits of
his labor. It is contended that the
farmers' producs must be marketed,
to realize their vaule, this is true;
but this in no way justifies the fact
that he farmer should practically have
no voice in fixing the price of his
products. The medical association
fixes the cost of ushering him Into
this life, and with the exception of
some free education and ha pays for
a large portiono f this through his
taxes, he has to re«Ve for his labor,
what he various exchanges and asso
ciations see At to allow him, and thus
it goes on, until he has to settle with
the Undertakers Association. So it
is -true, as the wise old darkey said:
"they gits him coming and gwying."
To create an association for the
marketing of the staple farm prod
ucts is av ast undertaking, but so
great is its necessity for the protec
tion of the financial interest of the
farmer, upon which rests his living
and comfort, that he should go at the
problem with the same veerlasting
pertinacity, that he has through the
years, plowed, planted, cultivated and
harvested his crops and fed the peo
ple. I'he very foundation and key
stone of this undertaking is cooper
ation. Has any undertaking that is
more thun a one-man size job, ever
been accomplished without help; when
a man realize* that the effort is too
much for him, bit one of two things
are open to him, lie down on his job
like a miserable quitter, or egt help;
the word help is the shorter and more
concrete expression for cooperation,
which comes from two latin words,
Co, and Operaria, meaning work to
gether, a plain simple proposition.
The Romans by cooperation not
only conquered the known world of
their day, but held, improved and de
veloped it. The organization of coop
erative associations rests upon indis
putable principles, and if practically
and economically worked out cannot
fail. A good thing started right,
worked out right and managed right,
is as sure of profitable success, as the
night follows the day. If a North
Carolina farmer could and did lay the
foundation of the Great American To
bacco Company, which has reached un
to the four corner* of the each, cannot
the great body of North Carolina far
mers lay the foundation of coopera
tive marketing and make it equally
as successful. It becomes quite plain,
that cooperation can All road mud
holes, and build good roads and main
tain them. One of our chief officials,
who took me Into the country recently
will endorse my statement—John L.
Bridgers, in the Tarboro Southerner.
