The citizens of McCrory should
 invest their money at home and
 not abroad. Organize Something
 at home. Have confidence in yourself and don t conclude that because it is somewhere else, you are safe. Keep your interest to- gether and build up the town
 where you made your start.
 When you do otherwise you are
 trying to kill your own town by building up another. Our town has all advantages of tie other towns of the County and many more. It's health cannot be du- D Heated in the County;it is more centrally located than any other town: 1t has better railroad ser vice than any other town: in the County. This is a sple ndld place for an oil-mill. We have more
 territory than either Cotton Plant or Augusta; A bank is an indispensable factor and must come ere long, nothing gives more permanency to a town than a bank and newspaper. Do something and from active in dustry, all are benefited, saw.
 mill and hoop factory are need ed; creamery would do a wolf- derful business here. Why not beautify home and be people to move on ourselves? Let us stndy this matter over and esN and dare.

be d living memorial to our saint ed dead and not fabled romance.

On last Friday morning, Tomas Cat Greer. Bill Collier and Tom Arnold were somewhere south of Fair Oaks among the beauti- flu, orchestras of frogs and in the delightful company of Buffalo Chats, seeking to unload their guns on some of the gobbling kind. The Thomas Cat, as IS al ways his luck was the only hero in the crowd of Chat Fighters, he having killed one Of the afore- said and the same, weighing somewhere i'll the neighborhood of 30 lbs. Bill Collier, who had the promise of the first turkey to be killed, of course was delighted at the prospects of an elegant dinner. This, however, was not sufficient for our Bill, so he be- gins to use the Longest pole knocks the persimon racket on our Tomas Cat. No Sir! I'll never do it. I shot the turkey and said honor belongs to me. What of that? You won't know anything about it one hundred years from now. Here, I'll give you a dollar for the honor of killing that fowl. No Sir. You can never get the honor only over my dead bones. !" Of course, this settled the ques- tion forever. This is one instance, where the Longest Pole was of no avail. Would to Heaven we had more Tomas Cat

Had you ever thought of the cost of that Cummins Farm with it's luxuriant growth of Johnson Grass2 It Cost $140,OOO. to begin with. It cost the fortynine day extention, which will cost some thing like $5000O. Then the ex pense of the Investi gation Com mittee, with it's typewriters, s heriffs and deputies, the fees for witnesses to testify and their mileage. Then the printing of two thousand copies of the testimony as obtained by the committee, costing in the neighb0rhood of $10,000. Making the grand total of about $2OO,O0O. What have we for thfs vast expenditure of money? We have sand bar ae. cording to the report of tae com mittee it is l infested with John son Grass and with the same ex- cellent fertilizer scattered over the second third and one third without the fertilizer. Jeff Davis is still Governor and that is worth something.

Petitions were intend- ed for emer-
 gencies.

The legislature has enough to 6o if it will pass laws effecting the state at large Ithas no earth lv business meddling with local affairs only in an emergency. Is it right to allow a hundred men not interested in the welfare of Woodruff Go. in the least to say what we shall have or what we shall not have locally? I think not and when petitions seek to have them do so, there is a bug under the chip somewhere. Do you think Woodruff Go. would have voted a District Court at Cotton Plant? Never. Did peti- lions accomplish it? Yes, they and some 3or thousand dollars. Would the people vote a four wire fence? No. Our legislature is be- ing or rather has already been converted into method of giv- ing the few what they cant get Tegitlmatefy. You call this demo- cracy? l call it hy ypOcricy. Why not have an election? We'll you say why doesn't he vote when he signs? No. The average signer doesn t pay enough attention to aspetition to have an honest opin- nsn on the subject
 Do you think Woodruff county is in favor of adding any part of White Co. toits domain? Ney- CT. The majority is opposed to it. But for the sake of victory. the minority use that easy thing the legislature, to assist them out of the soup.
 We are opposed to all petitions used in such way. Whenever people can't be permitted to have a say in matters concerning themselves, then we are no more q democratic form of government.
 If this is a free country, with a government of the people, for the people and by the people,  then give the citizen his consti- tutional right. Let the Declara- tion of Independence and the Constitution of the United States

NOTES ON THE
STOCK MARKET
Status of the Trade Given BY
the DrOver...StOck-

The tat cattle market was not far
from strong, cows ruled strong to a
dime higher than yesterday and the
stockers and feeders were generally
unchanged. Hogs sold 5@10c higher
than yesterday, from Sc. 80 to s7.15,
the bulk at Sc. 95@7.O 90. The sheep
market was active and steady.
Receipts were rather moderate, but
about up to the average. For the FIVE
days this week supplies have been a
little larger than a week ago, and full
ly 1920 larger than a year ago. There
has been a very gradual improvement
in the quality of the offerings lately,
although strictly toppy grades are
still scarce.
Beef Steers-The demand was not
so keen, nor was the feeling on the
market so bullish as on yesterday and
yet there was no radical change in
the market. Dressed beef men ap-
peared to be anxious for the good
light and medium weight beeves and
it was possible to realize fully steady
prices for anything of the kind. On
the other hand buyers did not take
the heavier grades so freely and trade
ruled slow at rather easy figures.
Fair to very good 1,100-fb to 1,4O0-rb
beeves sold at 81. 1904. 70, with the
common to fair warmed up and partly
fatted grades going to both packers
and feeder buyers at So. 5000. %.
Hogs-Good heavy hogs sold large
ly at 81. 90 and on up to $7.15 for the
best here. Mixed loads sold generally
at Sc. 95@7.O0 and light loads from
Sc. 95 down. The bulk of the hogs
sold at Sc. 95Q7. 90 as against Sc. SIS
o. 5 yesterday.
Sheep-The following are the days
quotations: Good to choice Mexican
yearlings, IS. 5O@5.75; good to choice
western yearlings, s5.25Q5.50 fair

RAID The COAL CARS.
OHlOANS CAPTURE EIGHT LOADS

Fuel Situation at Bellevue Reaches an
Acute Stage, and Citizens Take Des-
perate Measures-Patient Burned to
Death in an Infirmary.

The fuel situation in Bellevue, Ohio,
has reached an acute stage, and a joint
conference of the City Council and local
coal dealers was held to decide on a plan
Of action. AS a result word was passed
around that there were eight cars of an
thracite in the Wheeling and Lake Erie
yards, and that it would be confiscated.
At an hour appointed the fire bell was
rung, and the Mayor and Councilman,
followed by delegation of citizens, arm
ed with shovels, marched to the railway
yards and raided the cars, unloading the
eight cars in mountaineering time. The
Mayor issued orders under the village
seal, and the coal was distributed
through the local dealers, it being all
paid for at the rate of S. per ton. After
the eight cars were unloaded, a further
search of the yards was made and sew
eral cars of soft coal were found and
duly unloaded. About every team in
town was pressed into service hauling
coal, and the situation is considerably
relieved for the present.
