Oellinger Speaks The Gaston Repree
' entatlve During Hla Talk Bhowa Po
tions Against Legislation Signed by
8,000 Mill Operatives of the State.
Raleigh. The house passed by
vote of 58 to 27 a very-much-amended
substitute bill for the North Carolina
child labor bill, originally known aa
the Child Labor Committee compro
mise bill. It leaves hours of labor
and age limits as at present with
night labor cut out except for from
7 to o'clock as embodied in
amendment offered by Kellum of New
Hanover and adopted. It leaves out
the provision for an inspector and
$3,500 appropriation therefor, and
through an amendment by Stewart
of Mecklenburg, provides that the
county , superintendents of schools
shall look after the observance of the
law. -
It waa well after midnight when the
vote was reached .each side having
consumed more than an hour In dis
cussion. Williams of Buncombe was
in charge for the supporters of the
bill and Galther of Catawba for the
opponents, who in the round up sup
ported the Stewart amendment that
killed the Inspection feature.
The most spirited speech was by
Mr. Dellinger of Gaston, who de
clared in no boastful way that he rep
resented more cotton mills and cot
ton mill operatives than any other 20
men on the floor of the house. He
insisted that the mill operators are
not asking and do not want the pro
posed legislation and that It would
be a downngnt injury 10 mem. i nou-
sands of homes would be broken up
and families put out of employment
and opportunity made for serious har
assment He exhibited 5,000 slgna-
tues to petitions against the pro
posed legislation.
Speaker Connor and Williams of
Buncombe made - the principal
speeches for the bill without amend
ment appealing for the legislation
Ip the interest of the women and chil
dren and manhood and womanhood of
coming generations.
Favorably Report Railroad Bills.
Raleigh. The railroad committee
decided on a favorable report for the
Carlton bill to redulre railroad compa
nies to provide schedules for work
men at division points, with an
amendment that the corporation com
mission shall have the power to ex
empt any points where not more than
10 men axe employed. : Also the ma
jority voted, by Just one majority, for

bill for uniform bills of lading. Sena
tor Peterson and others gave notice
of minority report, on the ground that
neither shipper nor railroad compa
nies want the law proposed.

' To- Elect Assistant Examiner. '
Raleigh. It Is expected that th
corporation commission will elect ' a
successor to L .B. Covington aa as
sistant state bank examiner In the
near, future, and tb impression is
that the place will go to some capa
ble eastern Carolina uan. There are
close around' 20 applicants for the Job.
Mr. Covington served as assistant only
a few months before he waa chosen
as vice president and active head of
the Anchor Trust Cmpany of this city.

the house and senate committees on
education, women in North Carolina

tutions of all kinds for adults and

also provides that such positions snail
not be offices but shall be deemed
places of trust or profit , .

CROP YIELDS INCREASED
Work of Southern Railway Farm
Agsnta Help Farmera to Double
1 - Corn and Cotton . Yields,
Atlanta, Ga. An average yield
of 418 bushels of ' corn per
acre was secured by. 498 farmers
In Alabama and Mississippi who cul
tivated 8,352.6 acres In 1912, follow
ing the methods advocated by the
field agents of the Department of
Farm Improvement Work, maintain
ed by the companies that make up
the Southern Railway System. On
neighboring farms where the ordln
ary methods were followed the, av
erage yield was 531.6 pounds of seed
cotton per acre. C A. Lawrence of
Plantersvllle. Ala., averaged 109.35
bushels of corn per acre on 85 acres,
A, Henderson of Greenwood, Miss., av
eraged 100 bushels per acre on 25
acres, R Kllllan of Collinsville, Ala.,
averaged 2,132 pounds of seed cotton
per acre on C acres. Dr. C. N. Parnell
of Maplesvllle, Ala., averaged 2.813
pounds on 20 acres, and a long list of
other farmera who made splendid
yields of both corn and cotton by fol
lowing the methods advocated by tn
department could be given. ' .
These figures from, the annual re
port of Mr. T. O. Plunkett manager
of the department, show what Is be
ing accomplished by farmers living
along the linea of the Southern Rail
way and affiliated companies through
the aid of the agricultural experts,
the farmers In all cases cultivating
their, own land with toe resources at
their command. The work of this de
oartment has been extended to aJl
states served by the Southern Rail
way and affiliated lines, field agents
having been placed In Virginia, North
and South Carolina, Georgia, Ken
tucky, And Tennessee In September,
1912. They have been cordially re
ceived and It is expected that their
work will prove as successful as that
of the agents In Alabama and Missis

The Department of Farm Improve

threatened by the Mexican boll weevil
Inaugurated br President Fmley to
learn how to grow cotton Jn spit
of the weevil For thia purpose prac
tical farmera who had grown cotton
in Texsa under boll weevil conditions
were employed and their work proved
so successful In not only aiding farm
ers to successfully combat the weevil
but also in teaching them how to get
larger yields per acer by the adoption
of proper methods of culture, rotation
of crops, and greater attention to livr
stock raising, that President Finley
determined to extend' the benefits of
this work to the entire territory along
the Southern and affiliated lines. Thr
field agents in the service of the De
partment are agricultural expertr
jrhos services are given without any
cost to the farmers and who work in
full co-operation with the state and

More Money For PoetofMcee,
Washington. An Increase of neat
ly 23,000,000 In the annual postofflci-
appropriation bill waa made by the
Senate Committee on Postofflcea,
which reported the measure to the
Senate. The total asked for is 828V
487,442; the sum Including aa In
crease of $2,500,000 la railway mall
pay occasioned In part by establish
ment of the parcel post. A new weigh
ing of the malls, covering a period of
30 days from September 10, 1918, Is
provided by the bill as reported to the
Senate. Thia step is recommended
because the parcel poet has greatly In
creased the weight of the mails and
the railroads claim they are entitled
to compensation on a new basis. r

TELLS OF ATROCITIES
Writer Reveals Fiendish Acts
Committed by , Turks.
Bulgar Soldiers, Maddened by Treat
ment of Their Countryman, Show
Moslem Troops Women Are
Horribly Mutilated. ;
Kabaktcha Village,' near Tehatalja.
Owing partly to the fear of bloody
vengeance to come for the horrors of
this war, . partly to more natural
causes, great migratory changes art
taking place in that rich eastern sec
tion of Turkey in Europe through
which the Bulgars swept on their hur
ricane storm to Tehatalja. Though
from all appearance the old regime
of murder, mutilation and Injustice
will soon be forever ended, the fear-
struck Turkish population is moving
southward again toward Asia Minor,
whence It came, while the Bulgar
peasants of the Tehatalja district are
fleeing aa nervously ; north. ' Amid
these scenes of exodus, on la led to
think it may yet not be too .late to
bring some order; In the Balkan racial
chaos. . .
Meanwhile, the Turk have waged
the present conflict . In their old style
burning, violating, massacring. .Al
most at the Bulgarian frontier the
atrocious tale begin.
Well the moment the war waa de
clared the Turk began to loot and
bum the Bulgar villages. But as
the stern soldier from , the . north
pressed down, winning victory after
victory, tha Turkish population, per
haps rightly fearing vengeance In kind
from the men who found their blood
kin wronged and slain right and left
set off oa a frantlo migration to Con
stantinople, where they arrived tn the
pitiable state alreadyxinowa to the
world. Of such Turk as stayed be
hind the Bulgar felt forced to kill
ota. Other they put to work with
tb army transport, still others they
left la peace, their villages intact
Just as on finds also. Bulgar villages
intact when the Turks did not have
time to do a thorough Job. - ;,
"W expected," said a Bulgar officer
with whom I talked at Tehatalja, "to
find a rich and plenteous country as
w n eared Constantinople. We found
instead what you see, nothing! Hard
ly a living being! Utter devasta
tion!" ... ... . ..';" ', , ,
I met an old Bulgarian woman near
Tchorlu who was the first Red Cross
nurse upon the ground after the ter
rible destruction at Lule Burgas. 8h
said that on her "way to the field hos
pital she was sent to the succor of a
Greek village where the Turk had
scattered ruin.- Unlock your western
ears now, and hear the truth. She
found young girls lying naked by the
roadside nearly dead. She found chil
dren stricken down by careless sa
bers. A housewife bad been mur
dered as she kneaded her bread, the
dough still on her hands. And In a
bloody sack the Turks had gathered
women's breasts! , -A :
"It is not difficult to verify such
stories. They are common knowl
edge here. The Bulgar peasant has
no imagination. - He tells what he
sees. I will give one more example.
According to the Mohammedan re
ligion, pork is unclean and Is forbid
den. For a Turk to kill a pig Is thus
considered a special Insult td a Chris
tian. The advancing Bulgars found
many pigs shot down or stabbed In
farm yards ,
The Bulgars ; began the war In a
humane spirit as such terms go in
war time. But not a soldier In that
army of 400,000 Is Ignorant now of
certain fiendish evidence his comrades
have witnessed. In the fighting at
Tehatalja, th Bulgars, having ad
vanced during the day, were - fre
quently obliged to retire at night leav
ing their wounded on the field:

FINDS MYSTERY OF THE DEEP

Captain and Crew I tike
. That of Clest'.
Newport New, Va. Another mys
tery of the deep, virtually paralleling
the disappearance of the crew of the
schooner Marie Celeste year ago,
came to port with the British tank
steamer Roumanian.
The Marie Celesta was found at sea
with a pot boiling tn the gaUey, It
captain' paper on the cabin table
ana every inuicauon mat men were
aboard within a few hours of its dis
covery. "Nothing, however, ever was
heard of the skipper or crew,
The story of the Norwegian bark
Remittent with a crew of : six. Is
equally strange. The Roumanian
sighted the Remittent drifting near
the Azores and took It In tow.
The boat'a deck planks, one holy
stoned to a glistening white, bora the
marks of many feet but there waa
no one aboard and nothing to explain
the disappearance of the master and
crew. In the cabin the lockfast places
were undisturbed; chart and paper
were secure. -In the breaker there
was fresh water; salt Junk and bis
cuit were In the store. A mainsail
and two Jib were snugly furled and
lifeboat swung in th da vita.
In a gal 100 mile off Cape Henry,
Captain Claridge lost the Remittent
No other ship has reported It since.
The Remittent waa commanded by
Captain Torgersea and sailed from
