New Rural Routes.
There are now forty-threc game war;
dens In North Carolina. The supervising
warden. John w. upchurch, OF this city,
says the Audubon law is popular in North
Carolina and Is being we'll enforced. SO
far as he can discover. there are now
very few violations OF It.
The postmaster here received notice OF
five new rural free delivery routes cstab.
lished. these being as follows:
Cleveland. j. B. Thick: Ellerbe, John
e. McRae; Collision, George r. Rivcs;
Bnshy Forks. Robert Fl. Malone: Mount
Pleasant, James L. Peck. The totallnum-
Der OF these carriers In the State Is
now well beyond thousand
The Agricultural and Mechanical COL
lcgc is really ovcrcrowdcd. It is greatly
to be regretted that more ldormItcry
room is not to be provided There are
more students in the agricultural de-
partment now than any other. and for
this increase no provision whatever has
been made.
Question Of Immigrants.
Acting Immigration Commissioner r. X.
Bruncr when interviewed ns to the rca.
son why there arc 80 few calls for immI-
grants to como to North Carolina as la
borers or as tenants, said that on the side
OF the people here In North Carolina VINO
wanted immigrants on their FARMS they
do not wish any people unless they know
who they are, while. on the other hand,
Mr.. Bruner cannot afford to make mr.
rangements a New York to bring per-
sons here unless there is a positive ar.
rangcmcrt as to the price they are to
receive and as to the homes they are to
have. There has been very slipshod
way In hiring labor In North Carolina, but
OF course all this will have to be changed
II peorle are to be brought in here iron,
elsewhere. There will have to be reg
ular agreement as to wages or as to the
part of crops to be allowed those who
come as tenant farmers.
The board OF rententiary directors Is
to meet on the goth Instant. at which
time It will specifically consider matters
relative to the Wilkesboro and Jefferson
Turnpike. the construction OF which has
reached the point In less than two miles
OF the crest Of the Blue Ridge. The
question Is whether the State shall finish
