The Way Of The Transgressor
. Is Hard
Ntvr wiim inoro real truth and
' wisdom incorporated in one sen
tence tliaii wlion tho wine man
snid "The Wny of. the trans
gressor Is hard". Iook about
you if yon -plnnst! nd nee if tlie
fiioti not already-established.
Think of tho cases which liav"
co-no before tlioeyc of the peo-1
pie of Kings Mountain during
the post faw months. See Irvln
Dollchun m he sits in jail at
Shelby charged with robbery.
See Claud Hay nes and. Jim
Melton as they peep between
the bare for the same offence,'
Think of the cold and hunger
endured while fleeing from the
officer of tho law . Think of the
humiliation of lying in a dirty
. filthy cell awaiting trial, Then
see them as they stand at the
hor of justic to hear the sentence
of another period of privation
and hardship,
We cite these few cases just
to illustrate. They are duplicated
the world over. Men of sinful
inclination, are Ruing on in their
wickedness. The righteous man
ioreseeth the evil' and hideth
himself but the simple pass on
and are punished.
These difficulties are only
temporary. But beyond thegrave
what? We hear the great and
righteous judge saying,"' The
gift of "God is Eternal life but
the wag.-s of sin is death."

Indians to revolt, and death lurked
in every shadow of the forest

While sitting around reading
first one thing and - another
j during the bad weather I run
i acroiS the report of the Com
missioners in the Herald. I fojnd
there a feed bill so 1 thought
that I vouldjiguie it out while
1 had nothing else to do. I find
the laatr quarter cost for feed
$1,404.75. I believe that there
are four quarters in a year . so,
if I mnko no mistake, it' will
cost $5,619.00 to feed 21 or 22
head of horses a year. That is
is-what I . have been told, by'
one of the commissioners. So,
ifitcof-ts that much for feed
and other expenses the $15, 000.
00 that has been voted will soon
be gront' so.good-by to the blanch

It. was reported over town
Monday that th wind Sunday
night totally unroofed the Klotho
mill and the company store of
the Kings Mountain Manufactur
ing Company. The stoTy was
veiy much exagerrated. The
fact is, about twenty-five - or
thirty squares of the roof of Ihe
Klotho mill were blown oft which
is about one sixth of the total
roof. No damage at all was done
to the company store at the
Kings Mountain Manufacturing
Company. About one square of
roofing was torn vfp on the
cotton house but was not taken
from the building. -
Many water pipes were burst
and , much -confusion was ex
perienced in many lines of busi
ness and especially in 'kitchens.
