Was First at the Resurrection.

The Raleigh correspondent of the
Charlotte Observer sends that paper
the following parting shot from one
of the book agents who was on the
job at Raleigh for two months trying
to get the Commission to select his
books:
Zone irate bookman, Virginian,
who feels that the Textbook Com
mission has not done the right thing
in it's work of adoption on number
of subjects, declares that the Com
mission has not only found that
North Carolina was
First at Bethel,
Farthest to the Front at Gettysburg,
and Chickamauga, and
Last at Appomattox,'
but that some North Carolina wo-
man was also first at the resurrec-
ton, and the commissioners are seek
ing out some historian who will &C
cord to this State this latest claim. ("

Statesville Landmark
The Landmark is panied to note
that in the list of books selected for
use in the public schools, that noble
book, Webster's Blue-back Speller, is
conspicuous by it's absence. This
means that another generation of
North Carolina children will be de-
ficient in spelling.

Editor of The Caucasian.

Dear Sir:-I enclose order for ten
copies of Buffers Raleigh speech, and
l would like to have some of them
mailed direct to some of my Demo-
cratic friends.
| think if you people will set up a
good clean ticket, and work for the
white vote, youswill get good many
more votes than you got in the last
Democrats down here who say they
will not vote that ticket again unless
there is a change, and so far as | am
concerned, if God is so kind as to
spare me to vote again, | am sure
that I will not vote it, for the last
was enough for me. | have stuck to
the party long enough for nothing
but the name. | have voted for it
for forty-five years, and was fooled
for about thirty years, but have not
been fooled for the last fifteen; have
been clinging to the party for the
name-sake, hoping that it would re-
form, but see no chance for reform
within the party, and | am getting
tired of voting just to be taxed to
keep pets and henchmen in Office to
live higher than 1 do on my few,
hard-earned dollars. So you set up
the very best ticket you can, men who
will economic, and If live will be
with you, if no one else is.
Yours truly

Hot Weather Chicken Story.

All records for heat were broken
for this time of year last week, but
the hot weather is good for Matching
chickens as the boys at the Clarinda
Poultry, Butter and Egg Co.'s plant
will testify. The fore part of last
week after shipment of eggs had
been received by freight from Grant
City, one of the workmen heard lit
tie chickens peeping inside a case
and on opening it they found six lit
, tie chicks as lively as could be and
several other eggs which were pick
ed. The live chickens were taken out
and are being cared for at the home
of o. A. White. Evidently, some farm
er's wife down around Grant City
had made a mistake as to when her
hen was due to come off and thought
the eggs were spoiled so she careful
1y took them to Grant City mer-
chant who shipped them to the poul-
try plant in this city. When it is re-
membered that each egg was packed
in a little pasteboard compartment
just large enough to hold an egg,
and each layer covered over with a
filler, it is remarkable how the chicks
managed to get out of their shells.
It also disproves the old theory that
eggs must not be handled in hatch
ing or shook up.

- A Lucky Auto Accident.

Another auto accident last Thurs
day evening which endangered the
lives of four person terminated with
but slight injuries to any of them.
Ira Pugh had driven the Leon Elec-
tric Co.'s auto down to Casters lake
to look after the pumping station
there, and Mrs. Pugh and two small
children went with him. In turning
around on the hill east of the ice
house the machine started backing
down hill and the brake failed to
hold it and it backed down the hill
and over the bank into the ditch,
falling a distance of nearly fifteen
feet. Mrs. Pugh was holding the
baby and jumped out just before the
auto went over the bank, but Ira and
the little girl remained in the car
until it struck the bottom of the
ditch when they were thrown out,
Mr.. Pugh being bruised up some, but
the little girl was not injured in the
least. Mrs. Pugh was also bruised
some in jumping. The only damage
to the auto which fortunately re-
mained right side up, was to smash
down one wheel, every spoke being
broken. Had the machine turned
over Mr.. Pugh and little daughter
would probably have been killed.

We're Bound Over.

The preliminary examination Of
Ralph Rose and Alpha Fry, charged
with assault with intent to commit
great bodily injury, was held before
Justice A. M. Pryor in this city Tues
day. The defendants were accused
of assaulting Mark Riddle at Wood
land, week ago Saturday night,
when he was quite badly beaten up
and cut on the head with rock, it
being claimed that the worst assault
was made by We're Barrett, who
skipped out to Missouri and has not
yet been arrested. Geo. w. Baker
appeared as attorney for Rose and
Marion Woodard for Fry, county at
torney Sharp appearing for the state.
After hearing the evidence Justice
Pryor bound the defendants over to
the grand jury, Fry under bonds of
500 and Rose under bonds of $3.50,
both defendants giving bonds.

Auditors Duties Multiplied.

The county auditors Office has
been very busy the past few weeks
going over the assessors books and
footing them up and balancing the
same as the law now requires. In
Decatur county, with sixteen town
ships and ten towns, this is cOnsid-
cradle of task, and is slow and ex-
acting work for the auditor and his
deputy.
Now that the work has been about
finished the auditor is instructed to
take out of the assessors books all
automobile taxes listed. To do this
he must be mind reader at long dis
tance, for the autos are listed simply
as vehicles and the amount assessed
is about all that he can go by in de-
termining whether it is an automo-
bile or buggy listed.
The banks of the county are also
to be reassessed, as the new law re-
lating to moneys and credits makes
the banks all assessable on their cap
ital stock and surplus. To have this
done the assessors will all be called
upon to get the exact figures from
their banks.
The county auditors Offices have
been Jared terribly by every legis-
lature in recent years. The audi
tors duties have multiplied and be-
come more exacting with every ses-
sion until now the auditor and depu-
ty must be accountants, cashiers,
bookkeepers and clerks, and work
full days most of the time at the
hardest kind of indoor work

GAINESVILLE Wants a Sunday Train

The GAINESVILLE News says there is
a law in Missouri compelling all
railroads to operate at least one train
each way over all lines in the state of
Missouri, and an effort is to be made
to compel the Burlington to run a
Sunday passenger train over the Des
Moines branch to that town. If the
company has to do this they will
probably run the train through from
Des Moines to GAINESVILLE, the same
as on week days and this would give
Leon Sunday train to Des Moines.
