BUSINESS BUT NOT BOOM

Notwithstanding the oppressive
heat of midsummer the business Of
the county has suffered no abatement.
We DO not mean that there is rs much
buying and selling as at some other
seasons Of the year, but that there is
actually more doing than ever he
fore in the history OF the nation. A
mechanic without job is a man a.
rare as frost In July. The scarcity Of
skilled labor Is general and profound.
Here in Farmville there are at least
two jobs for each worker and this is
not peculiar To our town. II is NOV
ing, restless, nervous age. Man is
not satisfied with yesterday and this
Is just a. it should be. Progress il
the watchwOrd Of the hour. The
world can't stand still II must 20
forward. Rockefeller, with his many
palatial homes is building another
and it must eclipse all predecessors.

Wisconsin newspapers are all send
ing out 2s-page supplements. Under
new statute, Tive laws enacted at
each session Il the legislature are
published in every paper in the state
whose publisher is willing 10 perform
that service for 800. Few decline,
and thus there goes copy Of the
session laws into nearly every home.
The Wisconsin plan certainly makes
ignorance Of the law "a nexcusable

BOOKER WASHINGTON

Our contemporaries, who have re
Gently said that Booker Washington
had gotten 10 be pronounced enemy
Of his race, are strictly right. He has
sought and won social notOriety up
North which means death TO his in-
fiuence for good over his own people
down South 1t is true that
Ogden and his conspirators should
take the Tuskegee institution with all
that belongs 10 it and move it north
Of Mason and Dixon. Ii can no long
or serve any good or useful purpose
where il now stands. Its head has
lost his head and forfeited the respect
Of the white people of the South, and
as no law is effective that il not sus-
tanned by an approving public 50 no
institute on Southern soil without the
sympathy Of the white people Of the
south can live and flourish. The loss
Of Washington 10 the negroes Of the
country is a distinct one, but that
theirs is total los" 50 far as he is
concerned, cannot be successfully
contradicted. Betterfa so far as they
are concerned, that he should have
died natural death while he held
the respect and confidence Of both
races. lie may have gained with |
Ogden and Wanamaker but in So do /
ing has forfeited the good opinion Of |
the great body Of white people in our
Southland
In what striking contrast to the
Northern antics Of Booker is the dig
nified yet modest conduct Of the Rev.
Shepherd, another Southern born ne
gro who has attracted the attention of
more than one nation and yet offend
ed no race prejudice nor even one Of
the proprieties Of life. He has done
more for his race than ever Booker ,
thought or conceived Of and will con-
tinue so 10 do, while the other will {
continue 10 be disturbing factor in ,
society, a veritable firebrand among
men.
We repeat, let Iuskegee go and no =,
longer curse the South with its foul y
presence. IT, while moulding other
characters IL has fashioned this negro v

AN ANGRY FATHER.
He Sues Son and Daughter-in-Law for R1.OOO.OOO.

New York. May 2s.-Jeremiah Fitz- patrick of Brooklyn formerly an ex- 1ensive glass manufacturers, with large interests here and in Western Penn gylvania, has brought suit against his son, James, and the latter's wife for xhe restitution of over $1.000,0OO in bonds, securities and realty which, he Elaims, have been wrongfully taken from him.
 An attack of the bitterest nature is made by the father on his son and daughter-in law.
 For five days past the country home of the son at New Suffolk. L. l., has been barricaded against the fruitless efforts of process servers from this pity to serve MT. and Mrs. Fitzpatrick with summons in the suit. The siege was abandoned when service of the papers was accepted by counsel. The Father retired seven years ago and turned over his business to James, tC whom he gave power of attorney. He now charges that at least 100000 pf the property has been conveyed by the son to the latter's wife, and alleges he discovered this after having ar- ranged for the sale of $100,000 worth of real estate in Hoboken.
 The father declares he demanded an accounting, but received no satisfac- lion from the son, and that the suit was then brought. Counsel for the son denounced other members of the family who are well known in Brook kyn and New York as being back of the Fathers action.

MYSTERIOUS EXPLOSION.
Dynamite Charge Threatens Pennsylvania
 Bridge.

New York, May 27.-A mysterious expio- sion of dynamite which blew out the VIII dows of a pile driver near the new Penh- sylvania bridge over the Hackensack riVef in Jersey City early today was at first re- ported to the police as having destroyeo the bridge, but was ascertained later to have done no damage to the structure. Two watchmen and three Pennsylvania road de- tectiyes, who were on guard, saw the flash of the explosion, but could neither find any suspicious person in the vicinity nor dis cover what had exploded. or how 1t reach ed the bridge.
 The explosion caused the circulation of rumors that the railroad company had re- fused to allow certain class of workmen to be employed on the bridge and that thereupon anonymous threats were made to blow up the bridge and destroy the lives of some of the railroad officials. The knowledge of such letters was denied at the offices of the Pennsylvania Railroad in Jer- sey City today. The railroad officials de- nied that there had been labor troubles oi any kind in the building of the bridge. That the explosion was the result of plot by iisgruntled workmen was pronounced ab- surd.
 It is believed that a powerful explosive floated down the river on the tide. whether by design of some malicious person or by accident is unknown. A rigid investiga- tion was in progress today.
 The new bridge Is being built on piles and when 1t Is finished the Old bridge which it is to replace, will be removed and the new bridge floated down on rafts to the site of the old structure.
