Petty Thieving at the Valley.


During the month of February a
trunk belonging to A. d. Burch, a
merchant at Pauls Valley, was
stolen from the depot at that place
The theft was a deft piece of work
and it was some time before any
arrests were made. At the first of
this month a trunk at the same de-
pot was stolen from Miss Clara
Williams who was arranging to
board the train for Holdenville
where she was employed as teach
er. l.. G. Payton, relative of
the young lady, and j. E. Martin
deputy marshal of Pauls Valley
assisted by Deputy United States
Marshal Buck Garrett began work
in earnest to discover the guilty
parties. With the incarceration of
Sam Fellors committed by Judge
Winn at Center yesterday, 10 per-
sons. all Of whom are colored, are
now in the federal Jail here charg-
ed with the thefts. These officers
certainly deserve credit for their
untiring efforts in apprehending
and placing behind the bars this
horde of petty thieves.

DID YOU EVER THINK ABoUr1T7

Here's an item from the Chatham
Citizen that ought to be read and
studied by every man in the State, for
the conditions existing in the Citizens
county also exist in all the other coun
ties Of the State. The amount of money
North Carolina people annually throw
away in the manner referred to by the
Citizen is enormous. We quote:
Did you aver think about how the
consumer supports agents, pays their
travelling expenses and salaries be-
sides7
"a man will buy a sewing machine
of an agent for $40 42O for the com
paDy and go for the agent when he
could get the same machine or one as
God for a little over half the money.
This is not a thing away off, but is be-
ing done right here in Chatham county
now.
Chatham men are also buying fruit
trees at so cent apiece when trees
equally as nice could be had through
the Farmers Alliance or could be
bought o. Chatham nurserymen for
ten centa apiece or less. This is being
done, too, not by rich men who have
no other use for their money but to
pay an agent with it a big salary to
ride around and wait on them, but by
many who have to work hard and
economic to make buckle and tonOuo
meet"

THE COOPERATIVE FACTORY
AGAIN.

The more we study the question of
cotton growers c. operative cotton
mills the stronger grows our belief that
in this plan rather than in any of the
other plans that have been brought be
fore cotton growers associations or
other farmers meetings lies the best
method of lettering the condition of
our cotton growing population.
The warehouse system has ONE ex-
cellent features but at best it is Of but
temporary value.
A cotton growers trust is in the dis
tant future if not entirely impractic
able.
Resolving to reduce the acreage has
never brought about any good results,
and laws to compel this would be IN
constitutional.
Equally strong objections can be
brought against every other plan we
have heard discussed, with the sole ex
ception Of the cooperative factoy. This
plan is practic Il, legal, of permanent
value. II the big profits which cotton
mill owners r reaping were divided
with the cotton growers, a better dis
tribution of the profits made on the
cotton crop, the cotton growers would
have little OF which to complain.
And if we had this CO operative fac
tory properly managed with several
hundred or several thousand cotton
growers, each owning stock to the value
of several bales of cotton, each stock
holder selling his cotton to his own
mill and buying his cotton goods from
his own mill and receiving his proper
tionate share of the profits, this better
distribution of profits would be a
reality.

THR CASE OF sUMMRRELL.

The case of Mr.. Lawis Summerell,
the overseer charged with cruelty to
convicts, has attracted considerable at
tentiou. The News and Observer and
perhaps some other papers have painted
Summerell as one of the most brutal
monsters living and it was something
of a surprise to readers of that paper
when the PenitentiRry Board, q ma
jority of the members Of which belong
to the same political party as thai
paper, met, listened to the evidence
and completely exonerated him.
The case, as we have heard it from
those who have investigated, is about
as follows: Summerell was super
visor on q Northampton farm. Oos
morning last winter he left on a bust
ness trip to Weldon, first putting the
convicts to work in the fields. WhIl9
away the weather changed suddenly
becoming extremely cold-so cold that
the hands of several convicts who
were kept in the fields were frczon
and a number OF other convicts were
ipi1red in other ways But this, it
seems, happened in Summerells ab-
sence, and we do not see how he can
be blamed for the affair.
Furthermore, the convicts whose
hands froze had just been cent to
Northampton farm from Castle Hayne
farm. They were put with the other
convicts and sent TO the fields. The
only sufferers were these from Castle
Hayne, who, it was afterwards learned,
had but recently left the hospital.
We are also informed that the News
and Observer last winter charged
S.mmerell with brutal treatment Of
convicts in his charge. and that Sum
merell then sued the News and Obser-
yer for libel 1t also appears that when
the ~penitentiary investigation came on
that paper made Summerell's case as
dark as possible, doing, of course,
everything possible to have it's former
charges sustained. And naturally
enough, having, as we understand, a
libel suit for several Thousand dollars
on it's hands, it regrets to zee a board
of its own political faith acquit Sum
merell Of the charges which it made
and for which it is being sued. Come
of our readers haved noticed, perhaps,
that a prominent divine, evidently
without hearing any of the evidence
except that printed in the News and
Observer, has rushed into print with
rage and wrath to condemn the act on
Of the board. A minister of all men,
if he is to judge tall, should hear b 9TH
sides before pronouncing judgment.
