COAL PRICES GO UP
IN RAINIER VALLEY
WhitC0rnb
Is theMan

Is Uncle Sam allowing coal operators in
this state too high price at the mouth of the
mine? 1t begins to look that way-and State
Fuel Administrator David Whitcomb, of Sc
attic, is the man to whom we have a right to
look for relief
The consumer pays so per cent more than
he did last year. The retailer claims he can't
break even in spite of this
The prices were fixed in Seattle by taking
the basic price at the mine and adding the
costs of transportation, etc, to meet local
conditions.
Assuming that the local expenses were
legtimately added, then the BASIC price
must be exorbitant or else this tremendous
boost in price would not have resulted.
!~e>s Something is wrong, Mr.. Whitcomb.
1t is YOUR job to adjust it.
If the coal operators have slipped over
something on the national fuel administrator,
il is your duty to point it out.
And you will do it without delay-if you
are big enough for pretty big job.

Telegraph Operator Held for Fearful
Wreck on SeabOard

A fearful head-on collision between
two fast freight trains took place
near Franklinton Saturday. Four
trainmen were killed and railroad
men say the smashup was one of
the worst in the history Of the road.
Both trains were running rapidly
down grade in efforts to climb the
hills beyond and when the crash came
the two engines, weighing more than
$50 tons each, were demolished and
buried under the wreckage of 26 heav-
ily-loaded cars. The whole mass was
jumbled together in space Of 800
feet. The wreckage caught fire and
everything Of a combustible nature
was burned.
G. S. Jacobs, 20 years old, telegraph
operator at Franklinton for the Sea-
board, is under arrest at Raleigh
charged with manslaughter in con-
nection with the deaths Of the men
killed in the wreck. Saturday after
the wreck he was convicted in the
mayors court at Franklinton of be-
ing drunk and disorderly and was
taken to Raleigh for safe keeping
Jacobs is charged with failure to hole
| the north-bound train and deliver ar
order annulling a previous order tc
meet the southbound train at Kittrell
8 miles north of Franklinton, max
ing Franklinton the new meeting
point.

And It the Last Quart, Too

It looks like a shame for a man
to steal the last quart Of "the old ia
miliar" another man will have the op-
portunity of ordering, but that was
done here Saturday. John Welch
went to the express office, got ''hisn"
and placed it in his buggy and drove
into the lot back Of Messrs. R. D..
Caldwell & Sons store, leaving the
whiskey in the buggy. 1t happened
that Arthur Powell, colored, was
somewhat thirsty at that time, so he
just slipped to the buggy and took
the quart away with him. The Off
GERS got in behind Powell and he went
to the sheriff's office and surren-
dered. AS noted in the recorders
proceedings published elsewhere in
today's paper, Powell was first SEN
fenced to 80 days on the roads by
Recorder Britt, but later the SEN
tence was changed and prayer for
judgment was continued upon pay
