The Celebration as Seen by
Our Neighboring Town.

Our neighboring city of Reynoldsville
closed most successful weeks enter
tainment, under the caption Of an "Old
Home Week." on Saturday evening. A
multitude Of people visited the town
during the week, the crowd on Thurs
day being the largest ever gathered
there within the history OF the city.
Free entertainment and music Of high
class was furnished to the visitors and
there was fun for everybody. Parades,
speeches, daredevil automobile leaps,
high wire performances, ball games and
races constituted the amusements, and
there was wealth of side shows and
side attractions, the streets OF the town, |,
with their gay decorations reminding
one more OF the midway at some gipap-
tic exposition than the staid old town
OF Reynoldsville, whose citizens entered
into the thing with enthusiasm and
made the occasion memorable. Two of
the big Pittsburg newspapers, the
Gazette Times and Dispatch, were resre-
sented at the celebration by special
writers. Observation-Disclosures
by our neighbors during the week was
OF such character as to need only the

HORSE KILLED BY TRAIN.
One Thousand Pounds of Dynamite on
Wagon which was Almost
Struck by Train.

Struck by Train.
Robert NJ. Fugate, a Winslow town
ship farmer, had $4,000 horse killed
by Il train at Dubois last Thursday.
From the Evening Cypress we clip the
following account of the accident, which
might have been more serious:
Mr. Fugate was in Dubois this morn
ing and was driving to his home about
six miles south Of town with a load OF
dynamite. At the Brady street cross
ing Mr.. Fugate thought that the
watchman motioned for him to come on.
He started and when directly on the
track, he saw the Clearfield train bear
ing down upon him. According to wit
nesses he endeavored to back up the
team and succeeded in getting the
wagon off the track. The horse near
est to the engine, however, was struck
and instantly killed. Mr.. Fugate
jumped and escaped injury. The other
horse also got out of the mixup without
any serious bruises. The wagon tongue
was broken.
The wagon had on it 1000 pounds Of
dynamite and it was only by the merest
margin that the wagon was kept off the
track. That amount Of dynamite would
have resulted In one of the most Ter
rife explosions recorded in this COM
munity for many days.

A Real Democrat.
Charlotte Observer.

NHdIIOtUe oUSeINeI
The Richmond 1imes-Dispatch
thinks that "HOn. John H. Bank
head, who has been nominated by
the Democratic caucus of the Ala
bama legislature for United States
Senator, is a Democrat worthy to
succeed John T. Morgan. In his
speech OF acceptance" it says, she
said that he was a Democrat because
he believed in the greatest personal
liberty consistent with the rights
and privileges of others; because he
believed in home rule and the right
of the State to regulate its own in
ternal affairs without interference or
dictation from the national govern
ment; because he believed in equal
and exact Justice to all persons and
interests; because he was opposed to
high protective tariff which en-
riched the few at the expense of the
masses, and was the parent OF trusts
and monopolies. He also expressed
himself in no uncertain terms as Op-
posed to government ownership OF
railroads, which he denounced as Il
menace to the life of a nation" On
this point he said:
"When the government owns the
railroads who will direct their man
agement? Men skilled in the busi-
ness or repudiated politicians? The
latter, of course The railroad sys-
TENS of the country would become u
political asset controlled by the
party in power to perpetuate it's own
corrupt rule. Graft would be the
watchword and conditions intolera-
BILE would result Is the railroad
map in Alabama complete? Have
we all the railroads we need for the
development of the matchless re-
sources OF the State?
"Who are to build the new roads
so much needed? Will private capi-
tai build them for the government
to take them over for operation?
Surely not.
'Does any one think that the gov
ernment would build a mile OF new
road in Alabama during the next
quarter of a century? The location
and construction of new roads would
depend upon political pull. All
minor officers would be appointed
under civil service rules. Many Off
GERS, ticket agents, train and Pull
man conductors would be negroes:
the separate car for whites and
blacks would be abolished and thus
accomplish by railroad ownership
that which the government has not
been able to bring about by statu-
tory enactment or a constitutional
amendment
In point OF ability and scholarship
Mr.. Bankhead is not comparable to
the late Senator Morgan but he is a
Democrat of the right type, as was
his predecessor, and there are things
preferable to transcendant ability.
MIR. Bankhead will stand in the Sen
ate for this right type OF Democracy
the traditional brand, for the prln-
ciples upon which the party was
founded and on which it has in its
history achieved many brilliant tri-
lumphs.

A Roller Cotton Gin.
English Inventor Visits North Caro-
lima for the Purpose Of Giving a
Roller Gin a Practical Test on
Short Staple Cotton-What the
Machine is Like.

Charlotte Observer.
Mr. James Hodgkinson, of Man
chester, England, is & guest at the
Selwyn. Mr. Hodgkinson is a promi-
nent English cotton manufacturer
and inventor and is here for the pur-
pose OF experimenting the erection
of one of his special patent roller
cotton gins. The gin is at the plant
of the Southern Cotton Oil Company,
south OF the city, and is a novel ma
chine. 1t differs from the saw gin
which cuts the lint away from the
seed and from the combing gin which
combs the fibre from the seed in that
it simply twists the lint away from
the seed. The machine consists of a
large cylinder covered with leather
cloth band through which project
fine needles SO arranged as not to
come into play until the knife presses
the cotton against the leather belt
ing. The leather cushion then gives
way, the lint passes through and the
seed is left behind and cast aside. AS
soon as the pressure is removed the
needles sink back even with the sur
face and are not used again until the
knife is reached.
Mr.. Hodgkinson claims that the
quality of the fibre which passes
through his gin is highly superior
to that passing through the Ordi-
nary gin in that it is not punished
and is left as near the natural state
as possible The present gin is but
30 inches wide and for ordinary use
is much slower than the saw ma
chimes. No more power, however, is
required to operate it than any other
per pound of cotton used and the
question is but one of making the
feeder wider and larger. The roller
gins are used in India and Egypt
where the staple is finer and requires
more careful handling Mr.. Hodg-
kinson left Bombay several months
ago. The machine which he will
shortly have in operation here is
similar to the ones in use there. The
roller gins are new in the South.
Mr.. Hodgkinson estimates that the
ordinary staple which is ginned by
the roller gin will command at least
? cents per pound more than when
ginned by the saw gin. He believes
that the long staple will be even
more enhanced in value.

Southern Men and the Panama
- Canal Work.
Norfolk Virginian-Pilot.

Norfolk Virginian-Pilot..
The Atlanta Constitution calls at
tention to the fact that the three
members Engineer Corps of the United
States Army who have been selected
to carry forward the work of con-
structing the Panama canal are all
Southerners Colonial George w.
Goethals, the chief engineer, is from
South Carolina, as is also Mai. David
B. Gaillard. The third, Maj. William
n. Seibert, is from Alabama, and now
that another is to be added to their
number as an assistant the selection
has fallen upon Maj Harding, of
Mississippi. In addition to the
army engineers the canal commission
includes two other Southern men
ex-senator J. c. s. Blackburn, of
Kentucky, and Jackson Smith, of
South Carolina. "The South" says
the Constitution, may .jsel a par
donable bit OF local pride in the selec-
tion of Southern men from the army
engineer corps to carry forward the
work OF constructing the canal. OF
course this consideration did not af-
feet their selection and the fact may
not have been known to the men who
advised the President as to their ap-
pointment. Politics did not enter
into the affair and the qualification
that we feel simply grows out of the
good fortune won by Georgia s neigh
boring States Yet it is peculiarly
fitting that the South should be able
to claim, when this great work is
completed, large share in the actual
execution of this project. To the
South will naturally flow the largest
measure of benefit from the building
OF this canal, and it was a Southerner,
the late Senator John T. Morgan, OF
Alabama, who did more than any
other one man in this country to in-
sure the construction Of the isthmian
waterway.

Ogdenism and the Odgen General

tinue to accomplish the purpose OF

What business is it OF Japan ii the

Washington Post thinks that IF
Japan considers our navy in the Pa
cific an affront, the Pacific is the very
place for all the warcraft We can place
there" and that is just the size OF it.
'If Japan" continues the Post, is
to dictate to US where we shall send
our ships, why not abolish our Navy
Department and put our fleets under
the orders of the japanese Admiral
ty?" And still some folks think the
battleships ought not to be sent to
the Pacific because Japan might not
like it. Isn't that the limit?
