during discussion Of tho celery ques-

promoted by sending few Rocky Ford
gardeners to Denver to take lessons in
celery growing from the German gard

find it quite profitable to accept this sug-

COWLEs GETS DISCOURAGED
But the State Treasurer Will Not Let
Him Get Out of the Fight

7 The news comes from Statesville that
General Cowles has concluded, in view
of the legal complications that have
arisen over the receivership of the
busted" Morganton bank, to drop out
1of the contest altogether. He thinks
? that even should he win in the courts.
there rs not enough in the business TO
pay him for the work and worry. He
has, therefore, decided ito wait for some
thing better. 7o n~4caa~
1t will be remembered that our sancti-
fed State Treasurer attempted last Sat
urday to steal a march ON Walton and
his friends by changing the date for APP
pointment of Cowles as permanent re-
ceiver by Judge Robinson, at GoldsbOro
from December 18th to December 18th
But even a sanctifcationist sometimes
falls into the pit he has digged for
others. The hearing before Judge Rob-
inson was to be Mt p. M; four hours
before this, at 10 a. m, Judge Green
had named Walton as permanent re-
ceiver.
When Sanctifed Worth heard this, il
suddenly dawned upon him that chang
ing dates for hearings was a game at
which two can play.
on order enioinng and restraining
Cowles from interfering in Walton's adj
ministration Of the receivership. It was
this last straw that broke the back Of
Cowles' fighting spirit and caused him tc
conclude that the game was not worth
the candle.
Mr.. F. TT. Busbee. the Treasurer's at.
tOrney in this case, was asked yesterday
q ftarnOon a hOut thn ronor+pd withdro uro
Nof CowIes. ooh, there's nothing in it,
BE replied. "He can't do that: the
Treasurer, acting for the State of Nortl
Carolina, would not hear TO his doins
anything of the kind or If he did, he't
| at once appoint somebody else. As Al
official whose duty it is to look aftel
| the interest of depositors, he would have
to do so. and it has always been ruiz
in such cases to appoint some one ont Of
the county. When this is done, all fac
tional fights are eliminated"
