VOMEN PRAISED the noblest, pretttie8t and 'purest- women of all the ' 1 world," says uncle joe.' PROUD THAT HE IS ATAR HEEL Diecuaalng the Reciprocity Measure ' Former 8peaker Joseph Q. Cannon Turn Backward to Boyhood Daya in Guilford Intereat in South, v Raleigh. "The noblest, prettiest ,nd pureat women ot all the world were born In North Carolina." This may be startling news to some peo ple, but it la true. "Uncle Joe" Can non, former speaker ot the house of representatives, and himself a North Carolinian, says so, and Uncle Joe knows. While discussing the reciprocity agreement on the floor of the house "Uncle Joe" proudly told his hearers that he was proud of the fact that he was born in North Carolina. "I was born in North Carolina," he said, "and in the arms of my mother mov ed over the mountains when I was four years old. The family went to the Wabash. That good old mother, who la with the aalnta now, never eaaed mourning about the magnifi cent climate in North Carolina," Uncle Joe said that his father help ed to found the college near Greens boro Guilford college. "I went down there three or four yeara ago. For 20 years they had wanted me to come 'down tor commencement, and I finally accepted. The governor was there, the atate superintendent was there, other atate offlcera were there, and a large crowd assembled. I ar rived the day before the commence ment and I went around with Prof. Hobbs through that section of coun try. I visited the battleground of Guilford court house, where the great battle was fought which stayed Corn- wralllsand, led to victory as much aa any other conteat In the Revoluntlon ary war. Within a mile ot that bat tleground I waa born. The roads were good and we'Hraveled around In an automobile. I finally found the Djcceu 4. .asked Prof. 'Hobba where Tiorsepen was located. ThaPwas a little stream that I recollect as a four year old boy." Mr. Cannon in a dramatic way told of finding only a few rocks of the chimney of the house where he was born, of finding the graveyard. "In the -cemetery stood the old tree that I have heard described a thousand timeB un der which Cornwallis burled his dead. And I found where my grandfather waa buried. He died in 1812, the grandfather on my mother's side." He said that the granite found in North Carolina is the best granite to he found anywhere In the United States. "Do you know," he continued, "'that I am more than interested in seeing North Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, South Carolina and all the Southern states with diversified in terests restoring their lands." Progress of Central Highway Work. Mr. H. B. Varner, ot Lexington, waa elected president of the board of directors of the Central highway and E. E. Britton, secretary and Geo. Royall, of Goldsboro. treasurer. All 19 counties are asked to con tribute $25 each toward the expenses of sjie preliminary work and appoint local committees of five to stir Inter est. A central committee consisting of Wm. Dunn, of New Bern; Dr. Temple- ton, of Wake; R. R. Clark, of States vllle; W. T. Morgan, of Marlon; Thoa. J. Murray, ot Marshall, and J. A. Wal Ion, "of Smlthfleld, was named to co operate with President varner. A Drellminary survey to the propos d 460 miles of road is to begin In May, under the direction of the geo logical survey. ' Hendersonville. Hendersonville is - getting ready to build a new $21,000 school building and the present his- toria old structure occupied tor that purpose may be sold to the Hendersonville- Hospital Association at a minimum price. ' 1 r Revision Freight Ratea on Brick. There waa announced by the cor poration commission a revision of car load rates on brick witn e& cents as the basis for the first five miles In stead of 90 cents. - Ten miles is 90 cents instead of $1. -which is more for 20 miles, instead ot $1.10. the old rate. . Fifty miles is dropped to $LJQ instead of $1.60. One hundred miles is made $1.80 instead ot 82. Two hundred miles la cut to 42.65 from $3. For 800 miles the rate -is $3.40 instead ot $3.70. This reduo- tlon gives satisfaction. Charges Against Doctors Withdrawn. The damage suit that was Instituted 1n Wiie superior court over a year go by IV.. A. w. Goodwin against Dr. IA. W.

Carolina and Tennessee. A new chapter in this famous dis pute was written in Hickory when counsel for both Tennessee and North Carolina met there and took deposi tions from an Important witness. The surveyor's field notes were found at his home laat November. They were In the handwriting of his grandfather, William Davenport, and bear date of August, 1821. William Davenport was the suveyor for ths state and Robert Armstrong for Ten nessee at the time the survey was made. The notes of the survey have been lost in capttol fires, the war, and one way or another, and the marks on trees, rocks, etc., have been obliterated. Tennesee people have been claiming large amounts of land which North Carolina has claim ed were on her side of the bound ary. The case has once been decid ed against North Carolina, but this new evidence has decided the Su preme Court to reopen the case. The attorneys were at Patterson last week taking the depositions of Captain Jones and others as to find ing the field notes. They took the deposition of Mrs. C A. Cilley of Hickory, who Identified the handwrit ing of Mr. Davenport, who married the second time Mrs. Cilley's great grandmother. Lawyers at Hickory were Attorney General Cates of Tennessee; Attor ney McCoskey of Tennesee, and this state's lawyers, Attorney General Blckett and Messrs. Theodore F. Dav idson and Foster Sondley of Ashe ville and Judge W. B. Council of Hickory; and also Mr. John Franklin Shields of the firm ot Peck, Shield ft Clark of Philadelphia, who repre sents parties interested in Tennes see's claims. TAR HEELS RETURN HOME Railroads' "Back Home" Movement Fetch Two Cleveland Men, In response to the great "back home" movement inaugurated by the railroads of the. East and advocated by the Southern press ;f generally, ..two former r Cleveland county men have returned home. Mr. Will Kendrick, who has been a mounted guard 'rid ing at night along the Canadian bord er to prevent the smuggling of cattle from the county where they brought $10 a head across into a country where the same cattle sell for $35 a head, has decided that the S-uth has better opportunities for him and he has returned. Mr. Kendrick says th4 cattle smugglers sand-bagged the guards one night In an effort to get their herd across without duty and that four of, his squad were killed. He sustained a broken Jaw and sev eral dislocated teeth. Mr. Plato Spangler gave up a much more desirable situation to come back, He had been in Pasadena, Cal., about 10 years as motorman on an inter- urban trolley line. He was in the section of sunshine, fruits and flowers, but heard the "Call of the South' and answered. Stocking Streams With Flah. The United States Department of Commerce and Labor has been stock ing the streams around Henderson ville and Brevard with millions of rainbow and brook trout The fish came from . the Erwln, Tenn., hatcheries, stored in ordinary milk cans, into which exygen is con tlnually being forced.

FECTIVE IN HOUSE, NOT A SINGLE CHANGE The Bill la Practically Identical With That Submitted at the Laat Session. Washington. The Canadian reci procity pact was passed by the house by a vote of 269 to 89, all the Demo crats except 10 voting for the meas ure. A majority ot the Republicans present and voting voted against it, the number ot representatives favor ing it being 67, while 78 Republicans and Aiken of New York, a "black sheep," were against it . In the effort to insure the defeat of the measure in the senate, Repub lican opponents sought to kick the free list bill on the Canadian reci procity bill. Insurgent Republicans lined up with the Regulars, while Un cle Joe Cannon and John Dalzell ap plauded vigorously (he utterances ol Insurgents Murdock, Lenroot . and Norrls, and the latter returned the compliment. To Leader Underwood is due a large share of credit for the success ful work. He displayed rare skill as Demcoratic floor leader and engi neered the bill to final passage witn consummate ability. A liberal allowance of time was made to the opponents ot the bill and it was put through without the aid of a special rule. All Georgia members were In favor of the bill, though sev eral had opposed it most actively in the party caucus. They bowed to the will of the majority, however, and cast their votes for the measure the caucus had approved. "It was made a party measure and we were bound, by the action of the caucus," said these opponents in ex planation of their votes. Ten Democrats, -who said they had I been pledged against; the measure by tnelr constituent in the last, cam paign, voted against it by specif) per mission of .the caucus.!..- -' ; It was amusing to hear men like Mann and Cannon rail against the Democratic majority, who were cham pioning President Taft's pet measure. Some Insurgent Republicans like Len root of Wisconsin were really sincere In saying they wished meats and oth er articles put on the free list. They were reminded by Leader Underwood that they would have an opportunity shortly to vote in favor of admitting free of duty meat products from Can ada and all the rest of the world. They seemed bent, however, on add ing this clause to the Canadian pact. The Democrats were charged with bad faith in bringing In two separate bills, the Republicans insisting that it was generally admitted the reciproc ity bill would pass, but there was considerable doubt as to whether the free list bill would get by the senate. One reason why Democrats oppos ed any interference with the meas ure they had agreed upon in caucus, aside from an unwillingness to have their program disarranged, was the fear that any concessions granted to Canada outside ot the specific sec tions in the reciprocal agreement, was that it would cause complications with other nations who were grant ed all conecsslons allowed "the most favored nations." Ottawa, Ont News of the heavy majority given reciprocity- at Wash ington was received with much sat isfaction by the government and lib eral members who are supporting the measure here. The Canadian oppon ents of the pact are now placing their faith In the hope that the : United States senate will long delay the bill or kill it "The vote at Washington will be a great aid to the Canadian friends of reciprocity," said a member ot the Dominion government "I expect to see the opposition at Ottawa collapse in the course ot a few days and I be lieve the measure will be finally pass ed by parliament as soon as it is finally dealt with at Washington." Threw His Eye at Judge. Vlterbo, Italy. Of all the methods adopted by the Camorrlst prisoners to excite sympathy or incite a riot, none surpassed in novelty and effect iveness that of Gaeteno . Esposlto, who, at the end of a mad harangue, tore a glass eye from' his head and, hurling it at the feet of the president stamped eed the court Then he fell In a faint, and President Blanch! sus pended the sitting. According to the state, Esposlto,; who is. known as, a usurer, is a dangerous malefactor and leader of the Camorrists. ,.'-, Ogden Heads Educational Conference Jacksonville, fWaU the Cld offi cers ot the Conference for Education In the South were re-elected by the delegates attending the annual con vntion.

Early Declaration of Armistice Ex pected Rebels to Get Nearly All Demands. Mexico City. A proposition for an armistice pending negotiations for a settlement of Mexico's internal trou bles was received by the department of foreign relations from Washington. presumably from Dr. Vasquez Gomez. A reply was returned in which II was indicated that the government looked with favor upon the sugges tion. The armistice proposal appeared to be a direct outgrowth of the battle of Agua Prieta, and the consequent loss of life and bodily injury occassloned in Douglass by the fire from the Mexi can side. It points specifically to the dangers of International comnltrxt.ions whirl might follow a continuation of the conflict. Minister de la Barra sent to Wash ington the answer to the proposal made by the agent of the Revolution ists. In it he stipulated certain minor terms to which it is believed there will be no objection. It may be assumed, however, that before a full agreement is entered iy -ufe - gSjvernment and 'rebels, every detail of the proposition will be submitted to Francisco I. Madero, Jr., though It is not expected that Ma dero will longer oppose the overtures his agents have made for peace. It Is believed that no time will be lost either by the rebels or the gov ernment in concluding arrangements for the formal declaration of the ar mistice and that as soon thcrafter as possible, the work of drafting the terms for permanent peace will be be gun. It is conceded that both sides realize that the war is costing the country too much in money and lives Washington. "An invasion of Mex ico designed for a limited and tem porary purpose might be like touching a match to a tinder house." Senator Bacon of Georgia, ranking minority member of the senate com mittee on foreign relations, thus epit omized the sentiment of leaders of both parties in the two branches of congress. While recognizing the grav ity of the situation in Mexico, con gress is satisfied that the president is doing everything that can be done undedr the circumstances and no where is there seen the slightest dis position to embarrass him or his pro gram. Senator Bacon, while admitting the situation was complex, was emphatic In declaring that the time for inter vention not only had not arrived, but that up to the present nothing of se rious Importance had occurred to war rant consideration of the subject Many Cotton Milla Cloae. Fall River, Mass. Many cotton mills In this city were shut down. Work wilt be resumed every Monday morning, but It is possible that most of the coarse goods mills will con tinue on a short time schedule, prob ably closing Thursday night and re opening the following Monday.

Summervllle, S. C. Secretary Mao- Veagh, speaking before the South Carolina Bankers' Association here, made a plea to the Southern states to break from one-party rule and be come bi-partisan In their politics for the! rown good. He declared it to be of fundamental importance that any party-governed nation should have two available parties that the political life of all the people shall be at its best. "Two parties with at least fairly equal chances of governing are re quired in the work of governing the country, both locally and nationally," he said. that, while he fully understood the pbstac'es to the development of bi. party In the South, he firmly believed the changed could be accomplished. "I do not speak as a Republican." he said. "I am a member of the Re publican party, and I am a member of it because I believe in it. I was a member of the Democratic party during Cleveland's time and I was a member of it because I believed Secretary MacVeagh discussed par ty conditions in both the North and South in a friendly spirit, and said URGES 80UTH TO SPLIT. FRANKLIN MACVEAGH Secretary of tha Treaaury. in it. But my interest in bl-party politics is not the interest of a par ty man, but is the Interest of a cit izen of an American. I want you to believe that my interest in seeing the South under a two-party system is wholly independent of the ques tion whether one party or the other shall prevail. 'The Important thing to me is not that any one party should win. It is that there shall be two parties with the possibility that either may win; for this Is party government In its real meaning, and with Its real equip ment. If the South were alone con cerned, bl-party everywhere would still be a matter of sincere aspiration to me. But the question !b a larger one Its importance is national. 'With the same parties established everywhere, North and South, and everywhere marshalling and dividing the people on the same lines of thought and action, the last stone will have been added to the Immovable foundation of our perfect union. Our dreams can all then come true and no single sacrifice of the great and terrible Civil war will remain with out its reward." Bomb Dose Deadly Work. Chicago.

The majority report of the ways and means committee on the so-called farmers' free list bill, submitted to the house, by Chairman Underwood, is a merger of Democrat ic political argument and an analysis of the proposed duty exemptions.
