MORT pil;I,C PRINTING SCANDAL

Col. Fred A. Odds, the able Rail
eigh correspondent Of the Char
lotte Observer, wrote as follows 10
that paper last Friday:
The ex-public printers, Stewart
Bros, are i'll fresh trouble. Your
correspondent today interviewed
r. G. Rivers, one of the two ex-
pert examiners Of public printing.
Mr.. Rivers said: Stewart Bros
put in a bill for printing one and
p half million of fertilizer tax tags.
They are printed in blocks Of eight
but Stewards bill counts each tag
separately, thus making each I'M
preston of the block of eight a.
eight impressions, and Of course
increasing the bill seven times
more than it should be. The bill

1925. ] allowed the bill on Stew
arts statement that they could
furnish these tags singly if they
were SO disposed. | did not then

Ex-Secretary BruEorand Secretary
Ramsey, of the Agricultural De
paItmont, explained to me that
the printing in blocks OF eight
was required. Now ! have made
an official statement that only
1925 and not ~ 900 should be paid
for this work.
Commenting on this di4gracofu1
matter, Col. Odds pithily adds:
Was there ever anything quite
equal to this public printing bust.

SO poorly, SO loosely drawn? How
much has the clay Legislature
of 1898 cost tho State, anyway.
These are some of the question,
one hears. OF course III these de-

Not much has been said about

Not much has been said about
the election for local taxation for
public schools 1t requires a ma
jority Of the registered voters to
be cast in favor to secure the State
appropriation. For instance, il
there were 400 registered voters in
township, it would require POI
votes ''for schools" to make tile
appropriation valid. This being
the case, it seems to us that very
few, if any, Of the townships III
this county will vote the tax.
There is a great deal Of opposition,
and that with the indifferent vote,
it will be very hard to secure a
majority of the registered voters
in any township in favor Of more
taxes.

DEAR EDTroR:-It is pleasure
to us to have the weekly news So
explicitly printed each week in the
RoHEsoEIAN. We find it more
newsy than ever.
We are having continued hot
weather. The Thermometer al
this writing is at - degrees.
There has been but little rain i'll
this immediate neighborhood since
the first Of April. Ofeourse crops
are greatly damaged and in some
sections viii be almost Il failure.
1t is really distressing 60 see some
fields of corn almost dead-the
fodder ready to pull.
The writer had the pleasure Of
joining fishing party from Cor
don, Ala. II few days ago.
The owner of the fishing grounds
Mr.. John Espy, keeps his ponds
clear Of intruders that he and his
friends may enjoy the nice trout,
Dream, perch, etc, when they
desire. We were gone only Il few
hours and caught quite number
of fish. These rural sports are
always enjoyed by the writer.
During the greater part Of June
We have been enjoying very fine
watermelons. OF course we are
located near the Florida line and
thereby all crops are early. 1t is
u treat to have the melons and
vegetables so early, although the
latter are greatly damaged by the
drouth.
We made mention some time
ago about a little animal. The
salanander. A ncighbor caught
one in trap prepared for that
purpose and showed it to us. 1t
was the first one We had seen. It
burrows beneath the ground and
is sometimes very destructive ia
young corn, peanuts, etc. 1t
builds mounds at a certain dis
TANGO apart, which are often seen
by the hundred iii the woods. We
have examined a number of
mounds to see the opening in the
surface but they compact the earth
50 hard after the mound is built
that it is difiiceit to find theil
work.

led here, thereby making it easier
on the operator.
We see in the last issue of the
R0BEsoNIAN an enterprising move
among the business men Of Lum-
berton. There is still hope for
the prediction made wears ago BY
old Hardy Bell '"rhat L,lmbertol
would yet be u seaport town."
No town or community will i'm.
prove without. the guidance of tn,
knowing man or the help Of tho
! strong man.
Hoping this may reach you and
and that you will publish same
we are,
Yours respectfully,
J. P. MCNEIL.
