and that the consul was grating
Some prominent young Chinese, who
were seen with reference TO the natter,
declared that the whole affair has been
started up by the Liberty News, n
new Chinese paper that advocates the
policy of the revolutionists who are at
work in China. DR.. sun Yet Sun, who
is in China at present, is the head of
the movement, and his brother, who is
now located in British territory in the
far East is said to also have hand
in the affair.
Consul Explains.
The Chinese consul was seen yester.
day afternoon, and he explained the
whole affair. &c school for young Chi
nese is being established in Honolulu,
the consul said, "and the funds for it
are being derived from the special
charge that has been made for register
ing The Chinese of Hawaii. Women
and children do not pay anything;
neither do old men. Only young men
of over twenty years of age pay the
dollar and u quarter fee. One dollar
of this amount is devoted to the upkeep
Of the school.
"Frince Tsai Hsun, while in Homo.
lulu, spoke to me about the school and
the scheme for educating young Chinese
in the way OF the old country. The
prince was very pleased with the idea
and he said that if the fund from the
special tax was not enough to carry
the scheme through an appeal to the
board of education in China would
surely bring more money. / am sur
prised to hear about this graft talk
and wish The Advertiser would tell all
about the affair"
AS assertions had also been made by
some local Chinese TO the effect that
relatives of revolutionistsD are being
prosecuted back in China on account
of their 'Ccousin $" conduct in Hawaii
the consul was asked about the trutl
of the story,
"No truth in such statements, re-
Piled the consul. can this talk is
caused by the different societies warning
among themselves. There is always
some kind of trouble going on between
the longs"

in the local colony was interviewed OF

CHAMPION WHEAT GROWER
Randolph County Claims That
Paddy Swajn Has That Title
Acres and Didn't Count Any Wheat
That Shattered Out in Handling
Can Anybody e 1t?

To the Editor: Wake county Is
the champion county for corn and
cotton, and 1 feel sure Randolph is
the banner wheat county. On yes
terday, August Sth, Mr.. Paddy Swain,
who lives a little west Of Liberty, in
this township, threshed off Of four
acres 208 bushels and didn't count
any wheat that shattered out in
handling, neither did he count any
acres in wheat last fall and raised go
bushels. On this same ground he
raised near 400 bushels of oats last
year.
Mr.. Swain started in this world
some 20 years ago without a dollar
and not a foo of land, and now he
has three large farms, all Joining.
If you were to start to walk around
all of his and you had better get
an early start and take your dinner
along, for it will be late in the lay
when you get back to your starting
point.
Mr.. Swain is quite a young looking
man. If you were to meet him in
the road o would just think you
had met a fat boy going to mill. You
will find on this long plot Of land d
hunting lodge. His many friends
come from Greensboro and all over
the county and spend weeks hunting,
and they say they have the time or
their lives. Some mighty nimrods
come TO hunt that couldn't kill a bird
il a week, and get Billie Raddy's lit
tie son to go with them and they go
back to Greensboro the same even
ing with 40 to so birds, and it is Billie
that dOes the work.
Mr. Swain keeps aDOut 10 Or Il
horses and mules. You will find some
Of the largest rll:ES III North Carolina

Mr.. Editor. if YOU arc up this way
just stop with Raddy and get the fin
