A BLOODLESS VICTORY
Won by Salvation Army Lads and
LaSses Over the AristOcracy.
ROUGHs, THE POLICE AND THELAw
Have to Bow to an Act of Parliament Soon

LONDON, March H. Copyright. SAL
vation army batting, which for over a year
past has been a favorite Sunday amusement
in aristocratic Eastbourne, is about to be
efectually stopped. Eight months ago
THE DISPATCH predicted that the Saliva
tion lads and lassies would beat the COM
bined forces of roughs, police and magis-
trates, and the prophecy is on the eve Of
fulflment.
The Commons, by majority of to I,
have repealed clause in the local act Of
Parliament which prohibited street process
sions and music on Sundays in Eastbourne,
and magistrates will benceforth have to
deal with the alleged nuisance caused BY
the Salvation Army in accordance with the
general law of the land. Scores of other
cities and towns who love Sabbath quiet as
much as Eastbourne does have arranged the
difficulty in amicable accord with the Sal
vation Army, and Eastbourne is already
sensibly preparing to follow the same
course.
General Booth and his men and women
believed they were fighting for rights sup
posed to be cherished by all Englishmen
and supported by an overwhelming mass of
public opinion. They have won by Offering
passive resistance to the law they held to be
unjust by cheerfully enduring weekly kicks,
cuffs and unlimited brickbats, and by going
to prison bowling hallelujahi
Salvationists are not alvays agreeable per-
sons or pleasant neighbors for quiet folk,
but they have an abundance of grit and do
quite enough good in this country, at any
rate, to balance their Objectionable quail
tiles.
General Booth had an unusual experience
last night by being howled down at public
meeting in London, convened by himself A
number OF wood choppers, said to have been
thrown out of work by Booths unfair trad
ing in that business to which reference in
THE DISPATCH managed to gain admission
and ably assisted, by gang of men disap-
pointed at not receiving beer and bread
from the Salvationists they made the even-
very warm indeed for the General The ex-
perience will be of value If 1t convinces
Booth that it is not wise to sell wood and
other things under market prices.

FROM WINDSOR.

The democrats made great gains in this
county, and there has been much sur
prs all over the county.
TIE republican party had no leaders in
THIS campaign and hundreds of the negroes
voted split tickets and many OF them v0
ted the entire democratic ticket, The
white republicans who have heretofore
handled the tickets here have either gone
oyer to the democrats or stood silent and
let the Degrees paddle their own canoe, as
they decided at their conventions to run
the political machinery to suit themselves.
Many of the negroes have become so dis
gusted with Cheatham and the legislative
the democratic nominees or would not re-
ceive the negro tickets There was an
organized opposition to Cheatham in this
township in which two hundred negroes
openly swore they would not vote for
him. And many of them voted for Wood
ard. The democrats at Aulander gave
an oyster supper Friday night AMI invited
every democrat in the county t. attend
Hundreds attended and spent a very joy

THE DEMOCRAT believes that there is
money in stock raising, 1t would seem
that this would be especially easy on the
large farms along the Roanoke river
The pasturage IS large here, and horses
can be raised at small cost. During the
past twenty wears there have been vast
amounts of money sent from halifax
county to paw for horses and mules that
have been brought here from Kentnck y
and elsewhere.
The State Chronicle of 18th, speaking
Of Capt. WiIlIamson's horse sale. saws:
Capt b. P. Williamson is demon
strating that the breeding of fine horses
in North Carolina Tan be made successful
and very remunerative. There ware
forty head sold on the 18th at public auc-
ton for the aggregate sum of IS TAO and
average Of 1920. 90 each. Owing to the
depressed condition OF business this is
very encouraging proof that Capt
Williamson will reap the full reward
Justly his due. Among the number sold
ware two colts under five months old and
several with no breeding. One yearllng
illv sold for $650.G0. Seven yearlings
and five two year olds sold for $3.10l, an
average of $4,000. each. These facts
show that Capt. Williamson is making q
North Carolina horse the equal of Ken
lucky horse.

Compa

The North Carolina Lumber company,
located at Tlllery, hcve just started up
their mammoth planing mill. 1t is now
IN full operation.
The arrangements about the mill are as
nearly perfect as possible. The shavings
are conveyed from the planIng machine
to brick building by means Of suction.
where they meet and mix with saw dust
from the baud mill. This is then con-
veyeG to the boilers where this refuse
i automatically fed into furnaces.
The mill is doing we'll from the first,
turning out quite handsome work.
The plant Is large one and the plans
ing mill i only small part Of the great
machinery which will be at work when
the whole plant is cnpleted and the
vast machinery in operation.
This company, having already spent
much money in and around TIllery aud
still preparing TO invest much more, will
be great benefit to the community and
will be the means of building up quite a
business little town.

Halifax Superior court opened Monday,
with Judge Fl. S. Shuford on the bench.
Judge Shutord has not been in Fl alifax
court before, but for the short time he
has been among the people he has made
a favorable impression. His charge to
grand jury Monday was said to be long
and full, completely covering the ground
usually taken up In such charges. The
criminal docket has quite number OF
cases, but it will not probably consume
much time Of the court. Most of the
cases are for assault and battery, ARRAYS,
presentments, and the like. The trial OF
Bill P1ttman, Tom Wilcox and Wiley
johnson for the murder of Haley Wilkins
near Fin field two weeks ago. will
occupy some time. Only one of the de-
PENDANTS has been caught. His trial will
come off this week.
The civil docket has a number of cases
and the whole of this week and pro badly
half # next will be taken up by the court
Since the foregoing was put in type,
Bill Pittman submitted to a verdict of
manslaughter and turned States evidence
against the others. Warrants were i'm
m ediately issued for Isaac Garrett and
Wiley Johnson. They we're arrested
and brought to court and placed in jan
Tuesday to await the action of the grand
jury.
The two colored men, George Harper
and John Aaron who were few months
ago sentenced to so years in the peniten
tiary for cruel treatment Of another col
ored man will be tried for burglary or

We should be greatly surprised to
see our everyday bread come to our
tables tied with yellow and green
ribbons or decorated with golden
stars, but there was a time In En-
gland when so simple a thing as
gingerbread was treated in a much
more extraordinary way. In its
earlier form gingerbread was simply
a bread paste, with ginger and sweet
eninQ added. A very crude magma
ton went to work at it, and the
market-places were crowded with
gingerbread kings and queens, saints
and roosters, adorned with gilt
crowns and scepters with haloa.

crop almost a total failure. When
he went westward early in the week
the prospects were bright, but now
he says from the west line of King

While just below it an Iowa dis
patch reads as follows:
"The past week has been the hot
test experienced here for ten years.
The thermometer ranged from 80 to
90 daily. The result has been a phe-
nomenal development of the corn
and oat crops. The former averages
much better now than at this time
one year ago. The latter is nearly
ready for harvest and of excellent
quality"

AN EDITOR MISSING.

A special dispatch to the Globe
Democrat from Chattanooga, Tenn,
says that Trox Bankston, the editor
and publisher of the New South at
the historic village of Ringgold, Ga,
is missing, and the little town is
greatly excited over his disappear
ance, concerning which is a ro-
nance. A few months since Banks
ton met and fell in love with the wife
of prominent newspaper man in
the Buckeye state. The illicit pas
sion was mutual and as a conse-
quence the woman in the case
agreed to get divorce and to marry
Bankston. She fulfilled her part of
the programme so far as getting free
from her spouse, and came to Ring
gold, whereupon Bankston weak
ened. A somewhat strong interview
followed, as the result of which the
Tilted charmer went TO Catoosa
Springs, and Bankston, instead of
following her as he promised, went
somewhere else; where, is the ques-
ton that can not be answered.
Mr.. Bankston was in this city
Friday with the Georgia editors and
seemed to be in the best of health
and spirits, and evidently unaware
that he was posted as having skipped
