Herrmann, who had been with the bank 27 years, ottered tbte room and told them Ba had taken $70,000 of the bank’s funds. The amazed directors, when they were really convinced that this was true, and that the old employe had not suddenly gone mad, asked him why he had robbed the bank, Herrmann replied: "TWa la my revenge for not having been elected a director in 1900 aa 1 was promised.” The cashier added that be was willing to go to the penitentiary {?

It was daylight when the directors peomfeed to give the cashier $8*230 and a pension. Herrmann than went to the outer office, brought in $70,000. counted out *83,750 and put $8,250 in his pocket. The directors said this was not fair, that he must return au the money and that then he would receive the $8,250 promised to hint.

To Uw UUor tt Iks Oaattto: . I ace in your last issue some items that get near the point of removal of the county seat. I think the points have all been fully dtsenaaed as to cost and taxes. It seems to my mind that whan a man hat a house to build, the first thing he looks for is n suitable place to put it, then be goes to building. I think, taking all things into con sideration as to the majority of the citizens of Gaston county, they would be suited better at Gastonia than at Dallas. I wish them all well. But this movement is uot to just [please the citizens of Gastonia I uor of Dallas, as I look at this question, but for the majority of the citizens of the county. I want to say here and now we are going to have a new court bouse before long and I don’t want the boys to get scared out of their wits before the election and on that day vote for no court bouse, when Jo and behold the commissioners can go ahead and build one any how. The the tax would be the same any way for they would have to issue bonds or borrow the money to build with. So don't let the $30,000 knock you out of the coort house. We made a mistake when we didn’t take the $15,000 that Gas tonia offered ns before. But the tax-cry then was what did the mischief among the plain peo ple. I recall jnst now that one sak) to me that it would break us up.- I would suppose his tax to be SL00 except poll. So we lost $15,000 in that way. Now my fellow citiaeus, don't get fooled again this time, but come ont and vote for the court house at Gastonia and lei's settle the matter for time to come, and then yon will be pleased that yon did so. As to money to do the build ing, it wonld cost ns no more in bonds than some other way— unless Dallas will foot the bill and let ua all ont of the box. Wouldn’t that be fine? I like those good people all the same, but I must vote for Gastonia. Come boys one and all and let us settle the matter for them and build at Gastonia. Farmer. Gastonia, R. F. D.
