(From The Statesville Daily

(From The StateSvllle DAILY
Folks are beginning to realize
that homes for teachers are as
necessary as horses for preach.
ers. Since the days when the
teacher boarded mong the
scholars" up to now that most
important part of human affairs
has been left to do as best he
could for himself, with little to
do with. For some years it has
been problem to get homes for
the teachers for our town schools
and with lengthening school
terms the same problem is af.
fecting the country. Homes for
the teachers is the modern solu-
tion-a home for the teachers to
be a part of the school buildings
just as a parsonage, "a "manse"
or Whatever they may call it, is a
necessary part of the church.

$50, 900 for a site and q teachers

So far so good; but this paper

We have manses, often when Uhe

where the preachers stay. If tea
cherage must be the name for
the place where the teacher lives,
then preacherage should be the
universal name for all preachers
homes; and by and by if they
should determine to make an in
stitution out of editors and build
homes for them the habitat OF

WATAUeA AID YADklN NAY Be STAR.
TED Up.

Hickory Special to Charlotte Observer
Belief that the Watauga and
Yadkin River Railroad, which
has been constructed between
North Wilkesboro and Darby, q
distance of q miles, will be oper.
ated this season was strengthen.
ed today by reports that efforts
to obtain cooperation of individ.
uals, corporations and cities di.
rectly interested will be made in
the next few weeks. The rail.
road is owned by Frederick Fair
Of Oil City, Pa, who purchased it
in court proceedings after the
bankrupcy Of the late W. J. Gran.
din, and whose intention is said
to be to put the road on its feet.
Several possibilities are shown
to exist if the roadway is ever
repaired and trains set in motion
again.
Mr.. Grandin went broke as a
result Of two foods, one in 1915
and the other in 1918, which
washed away the two bridges ov.
er the Yadkin and Reddies rivers
and found him unable to finance
the rebuilding of the bridges.
The roadbed is in good shape
considering the length of time it
has been idle, and only minor re.
pairs are needed. The road owns
two locomotives, several passen.
ger coaches and q number of
freight cars.
From Darby, the terminus of
the road, to Boone is about II
miles. The Norfolk and Western
runs to Todd, IL miles from the
town of Boone, and from Gran.
din to Lenoir is Is miles. BY
building a few links in the noun.
tains good railroad service can be
furnished.
North Wilkesboro people are
deeply interested in the Watauga
& Yadkin River railroad, as also
is the Elk Greek Lumber Co,
which purchased the Grandin
timber interests and owns about
$4,000 acres of timbered and cut
over lands.
Judge w. B. Councill of Hick
ory, who represented Mr.. Fair
in the litigation which ended with
a clear title in the U. S. Supreme
court, said today that in spite o1
the tight money market, pros
poets were good for developments
in the next week or two.

Fifty six years ago today, itbe.

the place of holding a superior
court for the transaction Of the
business of the county, General
Stonman with his command Of
Cavalrymen of several thousand
came into Boone whooping, yell.
ing and shooting as though they
expected to meet an army of sew.
eral thousand soldiers, though
there were only about fifty sol.
diers and forty or fifty citizens
in Boone, killing, wounding and
taking the most of the crowd
prisoners; hekilled were Ephram

most of the soldiers wounded
and disabled were at home on
furlough. They with the citi.
zens were placed under guard in
a pen nearly opposite J. D. Coun.
ellis home, putting a strong
guard of soldiers around them.
Most of them were kept prison.
ers till the 29th of March, when
several of the citizens and q few
of the soldiers we're released.
Some of the soldiers decided il

he found a hollow log into which

Congressman r. L. Doughton,
congressman from this district,
who has been in Iredell and 9th
er counties in this district for
the past several weeks defending
the title to his seat in congress
against the efforts Of DR.. ]. Ike
Campbell, Of Stanley county,
who is seeking to unseat him, is
back in Washington to attend the
opening session Of the 9th con.
gress. Mr.. Doughton in talking
about his chances Of winning to
friends in the capital city has the
following to say about his case:
The Doughton. Campbell con-
test over the election in the eight
district is still attracting atten.
ton here. Republicans are not
as enthusiastic about it as they
were earlier in the game.
Friends Of Mr.. Doughton be.
lieve that he will win although
the house is strongly republican.
Mr.. Doughton himself is quite
confident of the final result. He
thinks that the evidence brought
out at the hearings are strongly
in his favor.
Mr.. Doughton is in Washing.
ton for the opening of the session
but will have to return to the
state to resume the taking of tes.
timony. When called upon for a
statement concerning his contest
he said he was feeling all right
over the prospects and that the
evidence was showing up even
more favorably than he anticipa.
ted.
He stated that the hearings
would continue aboutthree weeks
longer and that the evidence
would come to congress where it
would be printed aud referred to
one of the election committees
of the house. He said when the
evidence was all in it would be
shown that DR.. Campbellreceived
more illegal votes" than were
received by him and that while
there had been no great amount
of irregularities it would be
shown that where illegal voting
has been practiced DR.. Campbell
had been the greater beneficiary.
He also stated that it has taken
evidence up to date that desert.
ers who had not paid their poll
tax, ex.convicts who had not been
restored to citizenship and biga'
mists had voted for DR.. Camp
bell; also one man. and his wife,
who voted the republican ticket
in Ashe county, had testified ir
the superior court in said county
twice in the last year that his
home was in Virginia. Also il
has been shown that in one coup

Mr.. Doughton stated he had nj
fears whatever over the outcome
. when the facts had all been pre-
sented to the committee. States

al training and such industrial
work as will be likely to educate
the prisoners and teach them a
trade, so that they will be able to
help themselves and their fami-
les when they leave prison,
Above all, Mr.. Lewisohn con.
tends that a wage should be paid
to the prisoner. 1t should be a
fair wage and must be earned by
the work done by the prisoner;
and in order that prison labor
should not interfere with out.

labor should be used for the
needs of the State, in its prisons
and in other institutions, and if
there is "a surplus of prison made
goods in one State, they can be
used in other States, W h e r e
they are needed,
Another manifestly sound sug-
gestion is that prisoners should
be examined when they enter
prison as to their mentality and
other condition. If possible, the
cause which led the prisoner TO
commit the crime should be de-.
termined. He should be treated
accordingly, and placed at that
kind of work which he is able to
do, and the result Of such exami'
nation should otherwise be made
use of in the treatment of the
prisoner.
