Superior Court Adjourned
After Two Weeks Session

Of Time Many Suits Necessitaled

Superior court, which has been in
session in this city for the past two
weeks for the trial OF civil cases,

and 20 were continued at the request
of the parties to the suit. This
leaves on the docket for the next
term of civil court SO cases, which
were ordered continued by Judge

get to them at this court.
Judge Lyon opens criminal court

of the cases that come up in Orange
are of interest to Durhamites. The
case against BENJAMIN Loyenstein,
for passing worthless checks is. on
the docket for Monday. The trial OF
RUFF Suit, for the murder of Ed
Garrard near Chapel Hill few
weeks ago is set for this term Of
court. Suit, it viii be recalled. is
spending mis- time in the Durham
county jail. and has retained MEM
beTs OF the Durham bar for council.

firmed the first impression that

LABOR IS NOT
YET IMPROVED
Conditions Prior 10 1909 Have
MOI Been Recovered

Raleigh, Oct. 1.-THE wage-earn-
ers Of North Carolina have not yet
been able to recover the favorable
conditions which prevailed for some
years prior to 1909. declares Com
missioner of Labor and Printing M.
L. Shipman in the introduction to
the section of his 1910 report Just
prepared for the state printers. A
sense of depression, he says, prob
ably effects this class OF citizens more
than any other in that 1t forces them
from permanent employment and
brings about the necessity OF search
ing for positions, or remaining In
enforced idleness. He says IL may be
suggested truthfully, however, that
those avocations, commonly termed
the trades, and embracing represent
tatives OF experience and ability,
have afforded employment more reg
ularly, If at reduced wages, than the
daily wage-worker in many OF the
mill districts, lumber plants and
other Industrial centers, where the
more efficient class OF labor is not
in demand so much. He finds. he
says, that comparatively few skilled
laborers, however, who are willing TO
work, are without employment at
reasonable wages. He says the wage
Garner is confronted with the most
annoying situation in the demands
upon his earnings fer actual living
expenses, prices for actual home
necessities having advanced out Of
proportion TO his income earning
capacity.
The commissioner has made up bis
report on the condition of the trades
from reports he has procured from
the most reliable trades sources in
every section and locality OF the
state.
The average wages paid in this
state for the various kinds OF labor
are found by the commissioner. from
reports he has gathered, to be az
follows: BARRIERS, $3.50; blscksmits,
s1.5S: brickmasons. s2.75; boiler
makers, 1924: cabinet makers

INSURGENTS TO
BACK ROOSEVELT
win Raise Enormous Campaign
Fund for Colonel


New York, Oct. 14.--Republicans
Of New York state, to whom Theo-
dore Roosevelt has talked freely
since he returned from his African
hunting expedition, do not credit the
report that the apostle OF new ma
tionalism, upon his return to Oyster
Bay on Saturday. will disclaim any
intention Of seeking the presidential
nomination in 1912.
Close friends OF Mr.. Roosevelt
make no secret of the fact that he is
now quietly mapping out his cam
paign to defeat President Taft for a
second term and to capture the nomi-
nation for himself in 1912.
Mr.. Roosevelt fully realizes. it is
said, that the revolt in his own party
in this state may result in the de-
feat OF the ticket he dictated at Sara
toga, and those who keep closest in
touch with his plans assert that he
will return to New York prepared to
make the fight of his life"
Already, it is said. plans are being
discussed TO raise an enormous CAM
paign fund to flood the state with
literature and to pay travelling ex-
penses of party leaders who have
agreed to stump the state for Mr..
Rooseyelt's candidate.
Insurgents in the, states Of Wash
ington, California and Oregon, IL is
asserted. have expressed willing
ness to raise by popular subscription
fund OF $500 600 TO be used in the
New York state campaign. This
movement. according to those who
profess 70 know, originated with Uni
ter States Senator Jonathan Bourne.
Jr., OF Oregon, who, in 1908, con-
sducted a nation wide campaign in
the interest OF "a second elective
term" for President Roosevelt.
Senator Bourne is said to be en-
gagged now in paving the way for the
capture OF delegations from western
states for Mr.. Roosevelt in 1912. He
Is said to have the support OF Hiram
Johnson. insurgent republican nomi-
nee for governor OF California. and
4 Representative Miles Poindexter
who won the primary nomination for
United States senator In Washington
state.
So certain is il that Mr. Roosevelt
has definitely decided 10 contest with
President Taft for the presidential
nomination in 1912. il can be said OF
excellent authority thai he has ever
discussed the matter Of delegates q
the national convention with repub
licans who have visited him at Saga
more Hill. TO one politician Mr
Roosevelt is said TO have made thi
statement:
TAFT probably will get the Obi,

PLAYERS ARE FIGURING
wAsTlNG PENCIL AND PAPER ON
THEIR OWN ACCOUNT.

The Philadelphia players who
have been declared eligible for the
worlds series are trying to figure
up about how much each player Of
the winning team and Of the losing
team will receive. This is a matter
of guess, for stormy weather might
keep down the crowds In the fields,
such as was the case at Detroit las
year.
II is expected. though. that sever
al thousand persons more than had
been previously figured upon can pc
accommodated at Shibe park. In the
first place, it is very probable that
the national commission win decide
to sell standing room tickets to the
grandstand for each game. The
price of these pasteboards may be
fixed at $3.50 each. These tickets,
however, will no be put on sale UNI
| til about fifteen minutes before time
lfor starting play at 2 o'clock the
reason for this is In order TO give all
the holders OF grandstand tickets an
opportunity to reach their seats and
thus avoid confusion by seats being
pre-empted by those who buy only
standing room space.
IL Is estimated that Shibe park
viii be able to accommodate about
900 persons back Of the seats. so
that II the present plans are follow
ed there will be many more fans

ured that $1,000 persons could be

Because we employ none but first

We do not run a kindergarten to

pense and ours.
Because We attend strictly to our
line Of business and do not try to run

Because we sell to every one alike;
we do not sell to one for less than
cost and charge another more than
the goods are worth. to make up the
loss.
Because we buy for cash and sell
for cash, therefore, We can give our
customers the advantage Of what the
other fellow loses by crediting.
Because we have the only refriger-

THE INDIAN
SCARE OVER

Santa Fe, N. NJ, May 14.-The
threatened uprising of the Taos Pueb-
10 Indians at Taos, N. NJ, appears To
be at an end. Governor Mills this
morning said the National Guards
sent to Taos last night had been ord
cred to return. United States Attor-
hey Francis c. Wilson telegrapled
from Taos this morning that the rem
egsde Indians nave volunteered to
surrender and that the trouble had
been greatly exaggerated.
Santa Fe. y. NJ, May 14.-Sixty
men of the First Regiment of Infan-
try. National Guards, accompanied by
Adjltant General Brookes, left here
at one O'Clock this morning for Taos,
where the Taos Pueblo Indians are
threatening serious trouble. The sol
diers will arrive at Taos at one this
afternoon.
This mornings advices were that
the renegade Indians, for whom bench
warrants have been issued, are still
resisting arrest and were protected by
their associates. 1t will probably be
necessary for the troops to make the
arrests. hat no bloodshed is looked
for, as the Indians. who, including
women and children, number only
five hundred, stand in awe OF the mil
itary.
Taft Will Send Troops.
