POLITICAL OUTRAGE
| SAYS K|TCH|N
5f-
The Order of the President Di-
recting the Highest Eli
gibles Should be
GIVEN THE POST OFFICES

Washington, Oct. IA political
outrage is the appraisal Represen-
tative Claude Kitchin makes of the
Presidents executive order of
March 81, 1917, which requires that
the Civil Service Commission be ap-
pointed to postoffice vacancies in
first, second and third class offices.
Mr.. Kitchin scored the Presiden-
tial order today in an interview to-
the North Carolina papers following
receipt of information from the
Postoffice Department., that the COM
mission had declined to reverse it's
findings in the examination of appli-
cants for the Wilson postoffice. John
Fl. Griffin, Republican, will get the
appointment.
The same thing is true at North
Wilkesboro. Here M. F. Bumgard-
ner. a Republican, has been certi-
fed as the highest eligible and the
commission declines to reverse it's
finding there, although Representa-
tive Lee Robinson made application
for a rerating of the papers.
The two decisions, one of which
is responsible for Mr.. Kitchin's de
nunciation of the Presidents order,
argue fine for the confirmation of
Robert T. Wade at Morehead City.
A Republican was originally certi-
L oIi o+
head City but Senator Simmons and
Representative Brinson felt an in
Justice had been done Mr.. Wade.
They asked the commission to go
over the papers again and the re-
suit was that Mr.. Wade's rating was
raised and that of Cleveland Willis,
the Republican applicant, was low
cred.
Both the Democratic applicants at
Wilson asked for re-rating and the
commission went over the papers the
same way it did with the Wade and
Willis papers. The same thing is
true of the North Wilkesboro situa-
ton. And when it informed Mr..
K:tchin that Mr. Griffin's name would
stand at the head of the list, Mr..
kitchin said some things about the
order.
After quoting the order of the
President and stating the situation
at Wilson, Mr.. Kitchin says:
"Under such executive order, the
Postmaster General has no choice or
discretion in the matter but must
certify to the President for appoint
ment Mr.. John H. Griffin, who is a
life long Republican, though capable
and a man of good character. Un-
der this order, the people of Will
son are helpless and will have to
have a Republican as their postmas-
F, ter.
"My feelings are 'hat any order,'
s, Mr.. Kitchin said, ''executive or 9th
| erwise, by which a life lohg Republ1-
! can is appointed under Demo
| cratic administration as postmaster
| of a city overwhelmingly, practically
| wholly, Democratic over life Ions
Democrats in every way pre-eml
!, nently qualified is political out
rage. condemned this order at the
! time it was issued and the Wilson
| postmastership situation justifies m,
condemnation.

to the sidewalks.
The extra wide chatting strip IS
said to give the sides increased flex-
ibility, an additional tensile strength
of 200 pounds to the inch, stiffen the
grooves and eliminate rim cuts.
Breaker strips of extra width and
thickness are used in the new tire
The additional width minimizes the
danger from separation of plies, and
the extra thickness is TO eliminate
stone-b bruises, one of the destructive
enemies of fabric tires.
Every bit of the material that goes
into Double Milage tires must stand

fore it is accepted.
A contest between the new Gates
tire and a cord tire of national repu-
tation is being conducted over the

ance qualities of an all Sea Island

ORDER FIXING DATE DUE BY SUNDAY

WASHINGTON, June 5, 1919.-

Post Master Generals order Presi-
dent S. j. Konenkamp, head of the

of the United States.
This order followed Mr.. Konen-
kamp's statement this morning that
he feared the strike of the tele-
graphers at Atlanta would involve
the entire country unless settled inn
mediately. He said he would an
nounce the date for a general strike

Gates MILEAGE
TIRE, A new
RUBBER PRODUCT

Something entirely new in the tire
line has put it's rubber stamp on the
trackof motordom within the past few
days. 1t is a Western rubber pro-
duct, built along new lines and involv-
ing new principle in tire construc-
ton.
Although the latest arrival in the
tire world is new to motorists, it has
not been tossed upon the market as
an untried product. Before offering
the tire to the public, the manufactur-
er knew exactly how it would perform
"in harness" Several 10,0O0-mile
tryouts on factory trucks and pleas
ure cars have been made secretly
within the past year. Actual SER
vice tests, more severe than the rigid
government test, were conductd, and
the tire came out of these trials al
most as good as new.
The newcomer has been christened
the Gates Double-Milage Tire. It
is a product of the Gates Rubber
Company of Denver, Colorado, and
was designed as running mate for
the Gates Half-Sole tire.
One feature of the Double Milage
Tire is the quality of the fabric from
which all of it's various plies are
made. Nothing but long fibre Sea
Island cotton is used in the carcass.
This is the strongest and most costly
cotton produced, having a tensile
strength of 260 pounds to the square
inch, or approximately 35 pounds
more than it's nearest rival-Egyp-
tian comb.
The tread of the new tire is extra
thick, and of the most select planta-
tion grown rubber.
A white thick side wall not only
gives the tire a neat appearance, but
also materially increases it's strength.
The wall cushion extends clear to the

GENERAL STRIKE OF TELEGRAPHERS
SALVATION ARMY
.LASSIESDECORATE
SOLDIER
GRAVES

1.-TWO girls came today with clust-
ers OF violets. They were. artificial
flowers, which are the only ones to
withstand the frost, and some of
these the girls laid on each crude
bare mound. The girls who per-
formed this tender service were Sal
walton Army lassies. They are the
only American women carrying on
work among the soldiers within
range of the enemy's guns.
"They seem cold compared to the
flowers at home, but when the snow
is gone we shall come again and
plant seeds, which we hope will bloom
after we are gone and the war is
finished" said one kneeiing at a
muddy grave side.
The Salvation Army lassies backed
our boys at the front in way that
was not considered possible until this
war revealed the nature of the SER
vice rendered.
One young man voices the general
sentiment of all in writing his mother,
"There is one crginazition must pay
tribute to, the long tolerated hard
working, little helped Salvation
Army. In my opinion of all the
people who are doing helpful work
here, the Salvation Army takes the
palm. He goes on to describe how
two Salvation Army lassies with an
other woman and her husband served
hot coffee and doughnuts in a little
stone house where the shells burst
spasmodically all day long. The town
was taken four hours later by the
Huns but retaken by our boys, yet
these people carried on their work,
holding tenaciously to the front line
trenches following the ebb and flow
of battle, rendering inestimable SER
vice to our cause"

Declare the Charges Intimated
Are MOnStrOnS and
Past Belief
THE PRESIDENT INFORMED BY CABLE

WASHINGTON, June 5, 1919
Today Administration Leaders de-
manded immediate investigation of
the charges made by Senators Lodge
of Massachusetts,, and Borah of
Idaho, that certain New York busi-
ness interests had a complete copy of
the text of the peace treaty pre-
serted Germany, while the Senate, a
deliberative body, charged with the
constitutional duty of approving or
rejecting treaties between the United
States and foreign nations, has been
without copy of that all important
instrument until now; and is still
without one.
In voicing the demand, in the
open Senate this morning, Senator
Hitchcock of Nebraska, the ad-
minstration spokesman, declared that
in intimating that the President had
permitted big business interests in the
United States to secure an advance
copy of the proposed treaty with Ger
many, Senators Lodge and Borah had
made "a monstrous Charge" against
the Chief Executive.
Senator Walsh of Montana declared
that "the President should revise
his agreement with England and
France to keep the treaty secret"
Senator Freylinghuysen Of New
Jersey said: "I'd rather that the
President keep his promise to the
American people about open CO.
venants' of peace, than to see him
keep whatever secret promises he has
made Lloyd-George and Clemenceau." !"
Administration leaders said that
the President had been advised by
cable of the charges made, and by
whom they were uttered.

SESSIONS

SUFFRAGE

NEW YORK, June 5, 1919.-To-
day Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait,
president of the National Women's
Suffrage Association, declared that
the battle cry of the suffragists will
be: Especial sessions of all legis-
latures for immediate ratification"
as result of the Senate's adoption of
the national suffrage amendment to
the Constitution. A majoriy of the
state do not have regular sessions of
their legislatures until year from
November-or even later. Special
sessions will be necessary if women
are to be enfranchised for the 1920
presidential election.

ection."
.......... .... Michigan's Statute go.
The second hurdle is the Michigan
statute, which did not prevent the ex-
penditure of more than $4,000 in
Newberry's behalf, though reading as
follows:
"No sums of money shall be paid
and no expenses authorized or incur
red by or on behalf of any candidate
to be paid by him in order to secure
or aid in securing his nomination to
any public office in excess of 25 per
cent of one years compensation OF
the office
Certainly both statutes are explicit
enough to demand thorough over
hauling in the open of Michigan's in
side political methods.

Many reports are extant with re-
gard to military operations in Chi
huahua, where there are alleged to
be great results pending. The news
papers are filled with news that is
asserted authentic; but that is de-
cidedly conflicting. The following is
a copy of a telegram received yester-
day evening by Mr.. Emiliano Tamez,
Consul for the Republic of Mexico,
in Nogales, Arizona, which has the
merit of being official and tuthenti-
Gated by realiable official and gen.

Mr.. Emiliano Tamez,

Besides reports given to you yes
terday by the vice consul, we have re-
ceived from General Castro, at Chi
huahua, via Saltillo wireless station,
kilograms that deny completely re.
ports in circulation that the city of
Chihuahua had been captured by Villa

bandits will not attack Chihuahua,
where they would be annimilated.

A MISSING REPORT

WASHINGTON, June s, 1919.-
Secretary Baker has written to
Governor Allen of Kansas, that the
official copy of the report of the
chief of staff of the First Army of
the American Expeditionary Forces
in France, has not yet reached the
War Department. Governor Allen
has charged that the report cited
shows that inefficiency in command
of the 35th division had inflicted up-
on the division severe and unneces-
sary losses among Kansas troops.
There has been considerable
acrimonious discussion about the mis-
sing report. 1t is long overdue at
Washington, and it is relied upon to
corrorate some very severe structures
passed by Governor Allen upon the
War Department.

doctors indicate that the number of
deaths from this mornings ex-

eleven others, out of forty-nine in

Investigation has determined that
"a live electric wire in the tunnel
ignited a carload of powder passing
through the tunnel into the workings,
the explosion shaking the ground and
causing caves in the drifts, the
caving coal and rock entombing men
alive and terminating their lives be-
fore rescue could reach them. Sui
phur fumes from the exploded powder
suffocated many who were unhurt
