Keeping the Boys on the Farm.

One who writes as if he has author
ity based upon personal knowledge
end experience for doing SO, says
this about keeping boys on the
farm:
1t is all very well, when you have
nothing to do but kill time, to talk
about keeping the boys on the farm,
but you might as well spend your
time splitting at a crack. Boys will
stay on farm as we'll as anywhere,
il they receive decent treatment at
home. The boy who is yaLked out
of bed by the hair, kicked out to milk
and cuffed in TO breakfast as a pre-
liminary to being popped through in
the field all day, is not likely to be
consumed by his love for the glories
of agriculture-nor for his sire. Give
the boy a fair show, and he'll stay
with you till the cows come home.
If you are SO mean he can't stay at
home, don't you go to your neigh
bors with a hypocritical shuttle and
tell about your boys ingratitude
after you have raised him.

A Working Congressman.
Greensboro BeCord.

greensboro BeCord.
The States North and East gen
orally keep member Of Congress at
his post for years if he shows up
well. We have cOntended and yet
contend that the South has been the
loser by not following the same
course. We hang to the rotation"
idea as il every man is entitled to a
slice of what is going. 1t takes sew
eral years for new member to learn
how and when to do things.
. The Easternpart of this State has
one man that has been kept in his
seat Tor some years and he Is doing
things. This man is Hon. John II.
Small and so quiet has ne been in his
work that few Of us realize what he
has done Recently the Raleigh Even
ing Times had an editorial telling of
his achievements. 1t was through
the faithful work of Congressman
Small, The Times says. that Con-
gress was induced to appropriate
over five hundred thousand dollars
to begin this work, and now two of
the biggest dredges on the Atlantic
coast are at work cutting canal
north of Beaufort. BY the cutting
OF this canal and the cutting of a
canal leading up to Norfolk, a ship
can pass down to Albemarle and
Pamlico sounds and out to sea and
never be bothered by the dangers of
Cape Hatteras. This alone will open
up Eastern North Carolina to the
world and make the big sounds great
centres for shipping just as the great
lakes are for the North. The posi-
bilities for development in Eastern
North Carolina are wonderful. When
we get this great waterway the peO-
pie of this State will owe it to the
persistent work of Hon John Ii. Small
because he has devoted every energy
possible for this one enterprise. When
Mr.. Small addressed that big assem-
bly, of capitalists and Congressman
and Senators from all over the Mort h
and East, it made every North Caro-
llnian proud to see the way they re-
ceived him. Everybody in the con
vention was talking about Small,
the first man who talked waterways
to Congress.
Talk about doing things" what
do you call this? To enable ship
ping to avoid the dangers of Cape
Hatteras is one OF the biggest things
heard of; in fact, when the idea has
been mentioned in the past word
came that it could not be done.
Aside from this feature, however, the
good resulting from a commercial
point OF view is very great. Mr.
Small is a quiet gentleman and seems
to advoid band wagon" Tactics. He
wants results. not talk, and his con
stituents stand by him. He should
be kept in Congress the balance oi
his life.

Letter From Chapel Hill.

Chapel Hill, n. c., Dec 6, f9O9.-The
University Dramatic Club made its semi
annual appearance in Gerard Hall
Thursday night. The play rendered was
a masterpiece, popular in Spain, Ell In
diano, and this forms link in the series
of plays that is to present to the stu
dents OF the University an opportunity
to see acted the masterpieces of litera-
ture of each uf the leading nations of the
world In every respect the performance
was n success. The actors were hand
somely costumed after the manner of
the Spanish. They were generously ap-
plauded and genuinely inspired by the
approving eyes of some of North Carroll

Patronize Home Enterprise.

On the subject OF encouraging and
supporting home enterprise an ex-
change says this:
Encourage every home enterprise.
Take an interest in every industry,
invest literally in the stock OF faith
and good will, and distribute it all
over your city, in every factory, in
every work shop, in every business
house. 1t will pay you large divi-
dends, and will cost very little. 1t
can never depreciate in value. 1t
will always be above par. Buy home
made goods. Ask your merchants
for them. Wear home made gar
ments, eat home made articles OF
food, sleep on home made beds,
read home made newspapers. In this
way the money you spend is only
loaned. 1t will come back to you
again with interest Praise up your
city-don't run it down, Stand by
your merchants and manufacturers
they are the bone and sinew oil
your municipal structure. Stand by
your churches and schoOls-they are
the hopes OF your future. Stand by
your press-it it is the tireless sentl-
mel that guards your interests.
We owe it to the community in
which we live to do everything we
can in every way possible that will
be to its advantage. Our neighbours
prosperity means great deal more
to Us than someone's who lives else
where. We should bear this in mind
in buying our goods. We can afford
to pay our home man a firm price
for his wares rather than send oul
money away, knowing that every
dollar our home citizen makes viii
help in sustaining our schools anf
churches and public institutions. II
pays richly to patronize home indus

Fearful Blood Poison Cured.

A few years ago [ was a terrible suf-l
ferer from blood poison, which seemed to.
be worst in my hand. If the skin would
be broken from any cause, the flesh
would become infiamed, would itch and
burn and develop in sores. Before the
birth of one of my children. and several
months afterwards, my whole body be-
came fearfully swollen and | was in a Sc
rious condition generally. My blood was
thin and watery. On one occasion, about
this time, broke the skin on one OF my
fingers one Friday while attending to my
household work. On Monday, my hand
became fearfully red and infamed, my
arm was affected to my shoulder, and we
all feared lockiaw My hand became
swollen, and shed the skin, and was as
red and raw as piece of beef. My suf-
fering was so intense had to be kept
under the Influence of morphine for about
two weeks. My doctor carried me safely
through that, but my hand is left drawn,
| and my fingers are out of shape and stiff
so that have but little use of them And
| for years my blood remained in that con-
dition; every little scratch would give me
trouble, many times of a serious nature.

ARRIVAL OF TROOPS ALLAYs
ANXIETY AMONG AMERICANS

McCLOUD, June 3.-The strike stu
alton here shows no material change
The arrival of the state troops under
Adjutant General Lauck this morning
has greatly alIayed the feeling Of sus-
pense and anxiety among the Amerl-
cans which has existed for several days
The striking Italians assembled early
today and at o'clock marched through
the camp 500 strong to the McCloud
River Lumber company's store, where
they held a mass meeting. The lead
ers renewed their demands for In
creased wages and promised to hold
the men in check and attempt to gain
their object by peaceful means. They
declared that Notwithstanding the mill
tia had been called into service they
would remain quiet and orderly, but
would resent attempts to arrest any
of the strikers. After the meeting the
strikers returned to their camp and
quietly dispersed.
Thus far no property has been de-
molished, but forcible means have
been used to compel all employees of
the McCloud River Lumber company,
both Italians and Americans, to quit
work In compelling the power plant
to close in order to cut off the cleo
trio light last night the strikers took
out all the fuel and cut off the fire
pump as well. Threats were made to
cut off the entire water supply of the
camp, but these were not carried into
effect.

JORDAN STIRS
TEACHERS IRE
WORDS OF STANFORD PRESI-
DENT RESENTED
FRENCH INSTRUCTOR SCREAMS
INDIGNANT DENIAL
Reference to Weakness of France
Causes Sensational Incident
During Commencement
at Bryn Mawr
[Br Associated Press. ]

BRYN MAWR, Pa, June 3.-Resent-
ing a statement made by President
David Starr Jordan of Leland Stanford
university in his address at the COM
mencement exercises of Bryn Mawr
college today, Prof. Lucien Foulet, in
structor in French literature, arose
from his seat on the platform and ex-
claiming, "It is not So" left the build
ing.
Prof. Jordan's subject was War and
Mankind
Spain, Italy and France" he said,
"show the effect of their blood-stained
battlefields. France by her own con-
fession is a weak and decadent nation" "
This remark caused Prof. Foulet to
leave.
DR.. Jordans statement was made
with emphasis and he paused mo-
ment to give it added force. The next
instant Prof. Foulet appeared at the
front of the stage, his face scarlet.
Turning squarely in front of the
speaker the professor raised his hand
ominously and screamed:
ut is not so; France is not deca-
dent"
There was a moment Of suspense and
then a murmur of various expressions.
Prof. Foulet bowed low to Presi-
dent Jordan and then walked down the
steps of the stage with great ulgnlIy
and out of the building.
DIR. Jordan was as surprised as was
the audience and was much embar-
raised. After the Frenchman had left
the building he made movement as
If to retire. Then he said:
IF there are no more Interruptions, I
will continue"
There was silence and the professor
concluded his address. The incident
had the effect of throwing damper
upon all the exercises.
