Borrowing Money.

At the meeting of the board of
county commissioners Tuesday
Chairman Hill was authorized to
borrow $1,400 with which to pay
current bills, the county being forced
to negotiate a loan this early in the
year because 5,00O-about one
half-of the 1911 taxes are unpaid.
Many of the largest tax payers allow
executions to be issued against them
and do not settle until the last mo-
ment, as the cost of the fl fas does
not amount to as much as the inter
est on the money would be.

CONSERVATION OF
 NATURAL GAS

The much discussed waste of natural gas is stated by the United States Geological Survey to be rapidly decreasing. The problem of conserving the natur- al gas supply may be considered as having been satisfactorily solved in Pennsylvania, through. out the Appalachian and t h e Lima Indiana fields, and in Kan sas. The greatest waste is in Oklahoma and in the Caddo field of Louisiana, owing in Oklahoma to probable looseness in enforce. ment of the laws and in Louisiana 10 lack of market. It is note worthy that one of the two wild wells in Louisiana that have been sensational examples of waste have been successfully closed and the gas thus conserved for flu ture use.

STANDING ON
 HIS OWN FEET

Champ Clark is a candidate for the Democratic Presidential nomination and has made formal announcements to that effect. We strongly suspected all along that he would be a candidate. There Is no reason why he should not be candidate. He has fought and bled and died as much for the Democratic party as any oth. CT man and has never lost faith in the eternal principles for which it stands. For sixteen years. when many of his col leagues were crying out against decrees of fate, this man never lost heart or hope or trust in the saving common sense of the American People.
 Of MT. Clark's high character, his faithful service, his loyal Democracy, his eminent ability, there can be no doubt. He has been in public life for a great many years and is now serving his ninth term in Congress. During all this period he has been an active force in National Legislation and there is no stain of party disloyalty or personal dishonesty on his honorable record. -Raliegh, N. C., Observ- | CT.

 and Dynamiter Arrested

Ernest Winters, better known as Candy Kid," who has been in |this city for the past three years,
 was last night placed in jail, a solf.confessed dynamiter and bootlegger.s
 From statement made by 0. l II. Cantley, who made the arrest,
 we get the following;
 Last night about eight o'clock |Mr. Cantley was approached on the street by Winters, who in-
 formed him that he would be a candidate for city marshal as an
 independent man and wanted to employ Mr. Cantley to act as his deputy. This he promptly re- fused to do and gave Winters his reason in very explicit language, which seems to have aroused tn e |latter's wrath. His attitude was threatening and MT. Cantley suspected that he intended to do l him harm. Winters went to his boarding house and returned to town evidently looking for MT. Cantley. When the two met on Main street Mir. .Cantley proceed ed to collar Winters and take a revolver from him. Not being ing an officer, Mir. Cantley held his man until a warrant for his arrest on a charge of carrying concealed weapons could be se- cured, which was immediately done and he was placed in the county jail.
 Later he was brought to the office of Prosecuting Attorney Haynie and induced to make a confession to dynamiting the barber shop of Langford &

New Orleans s.-Latin-Americans in
New Orleans are jubilant over the
election Of Woodrow Wilson. At a
meeting of the Central American
colony Friday a telegram of congratu-
lations was sent ito Mr.. Wilson in
which the belief vas expressed that
the Wilson adrsrs 4 alton would
mean the death Uf doiIar diplomacy
which has brought untold suffering
and loss of life and property to our
people, and the establishment OF
pleasant social and commercial rela-
tions between the United States and
the republics to the south.
The telegram expressed the view
that the strong anti-American feeling,
engendered by the Knox policy IN
Latin-America, would be dispelled by
the general belief of the people OF
the southern republics that "Mr. Will
son would accord them square deal"
The telegram was signed by Don
Policarpo Bonilla, former president OF
Honduras; Angel Ugarte; General
Francisco Altschul, former governor
