Cobalt in North Carolina.

Thomas A. Edison, the renowned
inventor, is at Lincolnton with a
party of friends and makes the inter-
esting announcement that, after q
search OF two years by a number of
prospeetors working for him in the
mountain counties of North Carolina
the rare metal cobalt, with which he
will be able to rebate the weight of his
new battery 80 per cent, has been
found and he is much encouraged.
cobalt heretofore has only been found
IN Germany and what little Edison
has used has been imported. 1t has
lately been found in the following
North Carolina counties: Mitchell

Seventeenth Annual State Conyen-
ton Held in Chapel Hill--Officers
Elected for the Ensuing Year.

The seventeenth annual State con-
vention of the North Carolina Branch
OF the Kings Daughters and Sons
was held at Chapel Hill, May 10Th,
18th and 18th. From both a bust
ness and social standpoint,th the con-
vention was one of the most delight
ful, comprehensive and satisfactory
ones ever held. There were quite a
goodly number of delegates, twenty
two Circles being represented from
I different sections of the State. One of
the special features OF the meeting
was heart to heart talk made. every
day at noon. by Mrs. Margaret Bot
tome, OF New York, the president and
founder OF the order. The subject Of
her talk on Wednesday was, "Marv
Sat at Jesus Feet" Thursday, "And
There We Saw the Giants:'S Thurs
day evening, "And | Will Be Your
Guide: On Wednesday, at 800
O'Clock Miss Libby, Mrs. Bottome's
secretary, gave beautiful talk, the
subject of which was: "She Hath Done
What She Could" The music at all
the services, which were held in the
Presbyterian church, was very pretty
and appropriate. Judge James Mac
Rae delivered an address on "The
Charities of the Country" on We'd
nesday evening. The report from
the Hospital Circle of Wilmington was
received with much enthusiasm, and
as shown in the reports the work
there compared very favorablv with
the reports OF other Circles through
out State. After the convention ad-
lourned, Mrs. kluttz entertained the
delegates and other members of the
convention at q beautiful reception,
at which the music was furnished by
the University orchestra. The CEN
tral council OF ''kingis Daughters
and Sons have always held their
annual meeting in New York and was

PUBLIC ROADS AGAIN.

The GOLD LEAF is publishing this
week. Il communication from its es-
teemed friend Capt. John Sharp,
who says the times, circumstances,
and conditions Of matters pertaining
to the welfare of Vance county call
for the selection of an entire new
Board of County Commissioners. In
Il personal note accompanying bis
communication, Capt. Sharp says
also: 81 would like to see a Board
to consist of yonug, active business
men who would get on their horses
and ride over the county and see how
very 'unprogessive' are the parties
charge OF road working. Williams
boro township and Townsville roads
have not been worked by any one for
at least 3 years. / wish the County
COMMISSIONERS would come over and
see and not invite ridicule on their
supineness by having some one to
puff them in the papers"
Between Capt. Sharp and ourself
there is no quarrel-if there is any
difference of opinion. We have the
welfare of Vance county as much at
heart rs he orr any other citizen OF the
county. But in Justice to Ourself as
fn
notice of what he says. The editor
of the GOLD LEAF wrote the article
about public road work in last week $
paper. He did it of his own motion,
without intimation or suggestion
from the County Commissioners, or
any individual member of the Board,
and il ridicule has been invited on
their supineness by the article in
qtestiOn we alone are responsible
And we want to say further that
when the editor of this paper is the
writer, neither the County Commits
sioners nor as good q man as Capt.
Sharp himself could be guilty of
''having some one to puff them in the
papers" ii we did not feel and believe
the truth and righteousness OF what
we say in dealing with public ques-
tiOns.
We went out on some roads which
have been recently worked and saw
for ourself. We wrote about the
work as it impressed us, even saying
they had been wonderfully i'm
proved extravagantly as that may
seem to certain folks. and for what
we said we have neither retractiOn
nor apologies to make.
True, we rode with Chairman Amos
and referred appreciatively to his in
terest and efforts in behalf of secur-

want to go to the expense OF hiring a
team. Having previously expressed
desire to see what they were doing,
when talking about the road work,
both Mr.. Amos and Mr. Swain signi-
fled willingness to take us out any
time it suited our convenience. When
we got ready to go we called on Mr..
Amos to make good his promise
and he did. He may have suspected
that we would "put it in the paper"
but he is exonOrated from the acct
sation of shaving some one to puff
them in the papers,
But, as we said at the outset, be-
tween Capt. Sharp and ourself there
is no quarrel-and char amt"

q Grand Juror? The Grand Jury at the
last term of court gave much space to a
discussion OF the condition of the county
roads. closing with these words to the
court: Eve recommend to the County
Commissioners that they pay more at
tention to the county roods." That was
putting their dereliction of duty very
mildly.
Let him who disputes this assertion
of mine before replying to me, l say let
him go to Parhan's bridge and see for
|, himself the utter incapacity of Board
who planned, accepted and paid for an
inaccessible and utterly useless approach
to Parham's bridge. Let him pursue his
Journey thence to WILLIAMSBURG, thence
over almost impossible roads to
Townesville-none of which have been
worked for from two to three years.
IT'S true this section is not represent ted
on the Board. And l am very curious
to know if theroads leading to the coun-
try homes OF the present members OF the
Board have been SO Thoroughly ignored
from two to three years.
am attacking no man or set OF men;
we need better roads, the money is in the
bank to improve them even to limited
! extent, yet all this dry season the roads
| mentioned above were execrable. You
may guess what they were in the winter.
| Now to have the affairs OF the county
better understood, it. my judgment that
we should have new deal and an entire
new Board.
Iwould not knowingly do or say any
thing that would needlessly offend any
one of food creatures,i it matters not how
humble or high his position. But if in
| these strenuous times an official, it
matters not what his duties, earns an
implied reprimand for dereliction toduty,
| the usefulness of that official is ended
and he should make way for better
man. l repeat the man must be utterly
| ignored The officer must be energetic,
intelligent, discreet and just to all sec
tons OF the county. If after being tried
he does not measure up to the require
ment there are others who should have
trial and when the right official has
been found hold fast to him. My own
business requirements are too exacting
to admit of my going among the people
to impress my views upon them. have
given plain statement which can only
be verified by personal observation. If
the county decides best to continue in Of
flee the present Board, | will bow with
meek submission to their decision, trust
ing that at no distant day the voters
may be brought to view this matter from
my standpoint.

FREE HOMES IN MONTANA.
Twenty-seven Townships of Govern
ment Land Opened to Filing.


ment Land Opened to Filing.
Twenty-seven townships, comprising Co.,
OSO acres In the vicinity of Culbertson,
Montana, have recently been opened to
filing by the government. Some of these
townships lie along the Great Northern
railway and others lie along the Big Muddy
river Only the best townships out Of a
vast area fifty miles square were surveyed.
Much of this land Is in Paradise valley
contiguous to the Great Northern railway
along the Missouri river and in the Big
Muddy valley, but is fine rolling prairie or
table land back from the river. This land
is situated within from ten to thirty miles
of the Dakota and Montana state line, Gull
bertson being only thirty miles from Blu
ford, N d.
The ranchers and farmers have raised
good crops during the last three years,
previous to which stockraising was the
only industry. Prof. +. B. Linfield of the
Montana experiment station says no better
land exists anywhere than there is in the
vicinity of Culbertson. Crops are grown
here as follows Oats, fifty to sixty
bushels to the acre and forty pounds TO
the bushel. Flax nine to sixteen bushels
10 the acre; wheat fifteen to twenty-five
bushels; barley, thirty to forty bushels. and
speltz sixty TO eighty bushels TO the acre.
These crops have been raised on new break
ing and as the ground becomes better cul-
tivated the crops will be better. The soil
is a black loan averaging twelve inches In
depth, with clay subson There is sufficient
moisture here TO raise a good crop every
year without irrigation.
