DEATON. Editor. SUBSCRIPTION PRICE. One Year.$1.00 Six Months. 50 Three Months...25 Mooresville, N. C„ FEB. 2. 1911 HOADS AMD MKETINOS. The meeting held in Mooresville last Thursday was somewhat disap pointing to a number of the good road advocates in South Iredell in the fact that the matter for which the much-talked-of road district was called, was do’; v hour that i town to sar.ci.i''. had to l a e to a head, ed to draft <1 did their wart v submitted f meeting, but not ado-; ;i Several g;< ai from States ) : meeting, men ... upon consent of i meeting, tin talk—and of cours VM- t ,"t. . asVe.l t of the convention. At the '•> best of these gentlemen, u e «,s hnaii.i !e cided that the proposed district should hold their plans;.: ab.-y., v. until a general meeting can be held at Statesville for the purpose of submitting: a bill covering the en tire county for a bond issue of prob ably $400,000. Chairman N. 1». Mills of the board of County Com missioners has called that meeting to be held in Statesville at the coun ty court house, next Saturday, Feb ruary 4, at llo’clock. It is sincerely hoped that South Iredell will send a large and strong delegation to this meeting, and when said meeting is called and the bill is submitted, see to it that it contains stipulations that take care of South Iredell’s interests. The people of this section have said that they de mand a greater portion of the coun ty road funds than has been their good fortune to secure in the past. The South Iredejll people want a bill to guarantee to every township in the county at least the amount of money they pay into the road fund, or its pro rata part of the bond is sue, if a bond issue is voted and the incorporated towns in the county to say where their pro rata part of money shall be spent in building roads into their confines from the weaker townships; and any other features that will enable them to se cure a just portion of good roads. Tta representatives from this sec tion should insist on what they want. A bond issue cannot carry in the county unless a just and equitable distribution is guaranteed to each township. In case a bond issue is voted upon and fails to carry in the entire county, a provision should be inserted allowing those townships that do vote bonds to proceed to issue such township bonds as their pro rata portion of the ccunty road tax will justify. Now, people of :: proposition u you do?

There were two murders com mitted in the State Saturday night at near-beer saloons in the rural or j surburban districts of Durham and ! Concord. The saloon where young Sidney Barrier was killed in j Cabarrus county is just two miles east of the city of Concord and on : the direct line to Mount Pleasant. | It is only one of the hell-holes that will be found outside of incorporat ed towns throughout the State, but the tragedy enacted there Saturday light should be sufficient within it aglf to induce the present General Assembly to put them out of busi ness ins tan ter. It has been said that Sid Barrier ought to have been at home with his young wife. He wasn’t, however, and it is always the cag when murder is committed. These dives are decidedly more de moralising than open whiskey shops. A Lifkl IhImu la OmpL Tuesday’s Landmark. Iredell Superior Court begun yes terday with Judge C. C.

Deaton died last Sunday afternoon at 1:10 o’clock of dropey, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. R. L. Rogers, where she had made her home during the past few months. Mrs. Deaton was a woman of wonderful vitality, and for four years or longer she nursed her invalid husband, who was a paralytic, thereby adding weakness to her enfeebled body natural to old age. Shortly after the death of her husband in 1909,she began to decline developing the ravaging disease that sapped har life’s blood. Mrs. Dea ton was born in Rockbridge county, Va., April 30, 1836, and died Sun day, January 29, 1911, being 74 years, 8 months and 29 days old. Her name before marriage was Liz zie A. Minton, and a member of an old and well-known Virginia family. She is survived by four children, Messrs. James H. and Percy E. Dea ton, Mrs. R. L. Rogers and Miss Inez Deaton, all of this place. She is also survived by fourteen grand children and three great grandchil dren, one brother and three sisters, the latter being William D. Minton of Marshall, Texas; Mrs. R. F. Dry den, of Memphis, Tenn.; Mrs. D. M. Boyd, of Knoxville, Tenn.; Mrs. R. M. Dawson, of Washington, D. C. The funeral services were con ducted from the house Monday afternoon at 3 o’clock by Rev. W. S. Wilson of the First Presbyterian church. . Amity-Shinnvill* Items. The talk for the past few days has been “mad dog.” Mr. Harvey j Cook had quite a narrow escape from being bitten by one Monday morning. He was away from the [ house at the time, and he had to climb trees three times before reach-1 ing the bouse as he did not have: anything with which to kill it. When he reached the house, he and Messrs. Badger Gohdman and Charles Stev- j ens saddled horses and pursued the dog and killed it. The dog had bit-j ten two of Mr. G. W. Templeton’s hogs. Mr. Cook in trying to make his way home used his own dog to j help check the mad dog. He had to kill his dog, as it was bitten. The boys and girls of Amity will render a drama “May Day Moving I Drama” next Saturday night, the [ 4th, beginning at 7:30 and will have in connection a box supper for the improvement of the school. All ladies are requested to bring boxes. No admission fee. Everybody is cordially invited to come. Mr. R. L. McNeely is some better at present, we are glad to say. >p«»lal ■mUi| Oaltea.

McBride, a notorious blockader and a man with a desper ate character, was shot by a posse of officers last Sunday, when he was closed in upon just over the Iredell line in Yadkin county. McBride resisted arrest and it is alleged, at tempted to draw his gun when fired upon. It is said that the blockader was shot five times. The attending physician says that unless complica tions develop, McBride ma$ recover, although his wounds are considered very dangerous. McBride had threatened the of ficers several times and it is alleged that he declared he would kill some one or be killed before he yras ar rested. The posse was composed q£ JDsp uty Sheriff Joyner and CoaaftaMej Realgar. *f, Jimie JKill township, and .Masses. Jfri, Charlie and Mar shall Grose, who had been deputized to aid in the search for McBride. | It is understood that Joyner and Mel Grose did the shooting. All five surrendered to the Yadkin authorities. A writ of habeas corpus was issued and Sheriff Deaton and Deputy Baity went to Yadkin to serve the papers and bring the of ficers to Statesville for a hearing before Judge Lyon, which was given Tuesday night. The men were placed under bonds ranging from $200 up, and have been released awaiting developments. Speaker Cannon has to make good $8,(WO having been on the bond of a runaway treasurer. It does not seem to pay to be everybody’s unde. —Washington Herald. The Legislature has passed a bill requiring the sheriff of Anson coun ty to keep bloodhounds. Chapel Hill wants the legislature to give the Southern Railroad the right to take up ita steam track from University station to that place and build an electric line to Durham. m •»r|priw ■■! umyiril IJfi On last Saturday morning the brothers and sifters of Kr. John Brantley began ^feathering at his home. By noon/ with the exception of one sister, they were all there with other invited guests. And still Mr. Brantley did not suspect this was all in his honor until the numer ous gifts were showered upon him. This was ^he greatest surprise, as well as one of the most pleasant ones that ever came his way. His fifty-third birthday was made a very happy one by being associated with kindred and friends. After a sump tuous dinner, which was much en joyed by all, there, was a great deal of social pleasure and music. The number present was thirty. All had a very delightful day and left wishing Mr. Brantley many happy returns. NEW STYLE OF ROBBERY. Mr. and Mrs. John Howell live on Railroad avenue not far from Hon. John S. Henderson’s. Mr. Howell is section master for the Southern on the railroad yard be tween Salisbury. and Spencer. On last Wednesday Mr. Howell and family were called to Princeton on account of the death of his mother. Yesterday Mrs. Howell and children returned home, Mr. Howell remain ing at Princeton to look after mat ters pertaining to the estate. Up arrival Mrs. Howell was surprised to find her home broken open and robbed. The rooms downstairs were ran sacked and a number of articles were missing. After examining all the rooms on the first floor Mrs. Howell went upstairs and was alarmed to find a white man asleep in one of her bed^ He was “snoozing” along as noncholanty as if in his own bed. The man was a perfect stranger to Mrs. Howell and she did not relish his manner of proceeding so, she woke him up, when he immed iately seized a gun, which was in the room, and struck Mrs. Howell. The blow did not fell her and she grappled the weapon, and had wrenched it from him. The man at once rushed for the door and made his escape. The incident is a novel one, and Mrs. Howell will not like to have another such an experience. It is not known whether the sleeping man did the robbing or not.—Sal isbury Post.
