Last Thursday the President
had as a guest at luncheon, At
torney Folk who has become fa-
nous through his relentless pro-
secution of the St. Louis bOOdlerS.
Plans we're discussed for adding
bribery TO the list of crimes men
toned in the eXtradition treaties
with foreign countries. Mr.. Folk
is deeply interested in such
measure as several of the men
whom he had indicted have taken
refuge in Canada or Mexico. He
believed that the agreements with
foreign countries should be made
retroactive in order to make it
possible to get possession of
those who are already indicted.
The President ShO we'd much en-
thusiasm for the plan and Secret
airy Hay was sent for, to whom
Mr.. Folk explained his case. The
Secretary promised to take such
steps as seemed practicable and
as soon as possible.

The Keams Canyon Case.

Some of the Arizona papers
announced some weeks since that
the investigation OF the charges
brought against Mr.. Charles E.
Burton, Indian agent at Keams
Cany on, had completely eXOner-
ated Mr.. Burton of the charges
of cruelty to the Moqu;s and of
disregarding the regulations OF
the Indian Department. But
"Ou. West" the official organ of
the Sequoya League, which sOcie-
ty brought the charges against
the agent, reports the following
to be the finding of the Depart
ment:
The Department summarily
dismisses Kampmeyer from the
services, and reprlmands Mr..
Burton for neglect Of duty in
having failed to notify the De
partment Of Kampmeyer's con-
duct with a accommodation for
his dismissal............The Depart
ment finds Balfenger unfit for
his position at MOqui, removes
him Go a less responsible place. &,
and reprimands Mr.. Burton for
not having reported Ballenger's
unfitness ........." The Depart
ment reprimands Mr.. Burton for
his 'ill-advised and improper
method of carrying out the hair
cutting order and warns him
explicitly that no threats and
force of any kind shall be en-
ployed with reference to haircut

Gastonia Gazette: The crop pros
poets in CASTOR do not justify any
considerable feeling of disappoint-
ment. "Where the crops have been
worked" said a good farmer yester-
day, "there is.no ground to complain.
There will be a better crop of corn
and cotton both than was expected.
Early frost will cut off the cotton
crop some, since it is late, but with
a late fall many of us will yet make
a good crop" Our own observation
confirms this view of the county crop
prospects, and it is pleasant to have
good cause to expect improved re-
turns from mother earth for the hus-
bandman and the laborer.

'morseless and swift in avenging the

whole affair is deplorable, but beyond
that one feels that there is no more
to be said.

Better Tobacco Prices3

There were good tobacco breaks
at both warehouses here yesterday,
the best of the season so far as prices
went. At the Farmers the total sales
amounted to 14,O46 pounds, at an av-
erage of 5 cents. The prices ranged
from Sc. to 2512c. At the Capital
City warehouse there were two excel

News Notes from Col. olds' Raleigh
Correspondence.

Correspondence
The cotton receipts here so far are
so light as to be hardly worth mem
tioning. They are hardly more than
a tenth as great as they were up to
this time last year.
The staple of the cotton in this sec
ton is particularly good this season.
The receipts are light, though the
farmers are marketing their cotton
as rapidly as they can get it picked.
The deterioration of cotton in this
county continues and Sheriff Page
declares his belief that it has de-
clined 20 per cent in the past three
weeks. The corn crop is above the
average.
Up to date sixty-two counties in
this State have prohibition. Fully a
dozen county towns are to vote on
the question of liquor or no liquor
within a few-weeks. All the counties
already have prohibition by reason
of the Watts law, so that only the
towns have to vote upon the ques-
ton.
The bid for the 5O-year lease of the
Atlantic and North Carolina Rail
road as made by Walter Mills and
Herbert Finlayson, is slightly modi-
fed. They offer to pay 2 per cent for
the first sixteen years, 8 per cent for
the second fifteen, and 4 per cent for
the last twenty; to enter into a heavy
bond that there shall be no alliance
with or control by the Southern or
Atlantic Coast Line, and that a road
not less than fifty miles In length
shall be built from Goldsboro west
ward to connect with the Seaboard
Air Line. This seems to be consid-
cred pretty strong proposition.
-. Secretary of State Bryan Crimes,
who haszreturned from GreenViue
and other large tobacco markets,
some of the good grades are
being marketed1and that those which
last year5sold at $50. to $35: perahun-
dredGare now. Infringing only IS to So
declares that the story that the
growers are not putting any good
grades on the market is entirely
false, for they are putting on some
of the very best tobacco they have.
He says hat individuals are buying
tobacco and storing it and asks
why, if they find this a good thing
to do, stock companies cannot buy
and store also7 The individuals real
ize that tobacco is selling much be-
low the cost of production; that the
opportunity for stock companies to
lay in a supply is one certainly not to
be missed.

ed a point beyond mere objections to
high assessment and is to be fought
out in the courts. The legal battle
begins with a restraining order is

PEBBLES. The order requires the
Board of County Commissioners of

Exchange: The aged father of
Senator F. M. Simmons was slain
Saturday afternoon on his plantation
near Trenton, in Jones County. He
had gone out to forbid some shooting
on his premises which had been go
ing on a day or two. The negro who
was hunting shot him through the
body and left him. The dead body
was found Sunday morning. The
sympathy of all the State is aroused
for the stricken family. It is graft
flying to believe that the murder has
been apprehended and will be duly
punished.
A special from Greensboro says
Mr.. j. L. Clemmons, it has always
been claimed by his friends, was the
discover of ~telegraphy, and communi-
Gated his discovery to Morse, who
perfected the principle and claimed
it as his own. Mr.. CIemmons was
reared in Lexington, Davidson Coun-
ty, and it was generally supposed
that he was dead long ago. Yester-
day Mr.. w. A. Watson, of this city,
received a long and interesting letter
from Mr.. Clemmons, saying that he
was in excellent health and was com
ing to the reunion of nonresident
North Carolinians, to be held here
October 18th and 18th.
Lumberton Argus: The best joke
we have heard apropos the low prices
of tobacco is told on the Latta mar
ket. 1t is reported that an old dar-
key, being told that the price of his
load of tobacco lacked twenty-three
cents paying the charges, remarked
that he had no money, whereupon he
was told to bring a chicken the next
time he came to town. A few days
afterwards, the darkey, with two
chickens, approached the warehouse
man, who remarked that he had told
him to bring one chicken. "But,

There is considerable talk about
town with reference to the early
closing in the evening of local busi-
ness houses. It is said that ali the
merchants have the matter ii con-
temptation. The information is.
that in Eugene, Albany, McMinn-
vile and many other towns in the
valley, all the stores close at six
O'Clock, save on Saturday night,
when they are kept open to later
hour.
Expressions heard on the street
indicate that the public is wholly III
sympathy with the movement, and
that if merchants adopt the plan,
they will not lose, but on the con-
trary will gain to such an extent as
the relief from close confinement
and the fine resultant recreation
will give them. The public will
not suffer, but will undoubtedly
approve of the action, in case it is
taken. It is said that all the lead
ing business menin town are very
friendly to the plan.

FOR MUTUAL PHONES.
Subscription Paper Presented to Pub
lic-An Expert IN Town.

The movement for mutual tele-
phone system has taken shape by
the presentation of subscription
paper to the public. This paper
gives opportu nifty to all who desire
to take out membership in the
mutual line. It is the product of asuc
session of conferences between the
committee and an expert, formerly
identified with similar systems in
Ohio. He arrived in Corvallis
Thursday. He says that in Indiani
Ohio, Illinois and other Eastern
States the ratio of mutual lines to
the Bell system is as two to one,
and that they are universally sue
cessfu1.
The subscription paper is in the
hands of Fred Clark. It places the
initial sum to be paid by the sub
scriber at $40, which covers the
price Of the telephone and line
construction, giving the subscriber
ownership Of the phone. The lat
ter is to be modern instrument,
far superior to those now in use in
Corvallis. The monthly rental of
the phone is placed at Is cents
per mouth to each subscriber. That
is IS cents per month less than the
present cost of residence lines and
but half the cost of office lines.
The price is to stand at the, above
figures for three years. If after
experiment reduction is possible, it
will be made. If 200 subscribers
can be secured the system will be-
installed. TheFprogress of the SUBJ
