Raleigh shops to Manly, a flag
station two miles north of Sou

take down the rods of a disabled
engine preparatory to bringing it
to the Raleigh shops.
One of the guards went down

a tool from a section house, and
in his absence eight automobiles
drove up (the siding is in a few
feet of the highway and the Is
occupants sprang from the cars
and quickly overpowered the

are said to have been gagged,
bound and beaten. Some of the
men were beaten so badly that
they required medical attention;
they were carried several miles

should be allowed to work on
jobs to which they think they
hold a mortgage.
Sheriff Blue on Saturday re.

This Senatorial district is COM

years hence Scotland and David

Strikes Still Unsettled.

Both the railroad and coal
strikes are still unsettled. I'm.
portant conferences are being
held daily, but apparently the end
is not yet in sight. On the other
hand, it is possible a solution may
be reached at any moment, and
the strikers return to work.
Many are of the opinion that
the strike will be long drawn out.
It is generally believed that the
Big Four lthe members Of the
tafOur large Unions of engineers,
firemen, etc.) will also go on a
strike very shortly; they will pro-
badly contend that the strike Of
the machinists etc. hasprevented
the engines from being washed
out and attended to and that it
will be unsafe for them to be ope-
rated hence their refusal to fur
ther run the engines.
In event the engineers walk
out, the chances are that the Gov,
ernment would take control OF
the railroads as a national enler-
gency and either commander. or
draft the strikers.
Anyway it is viewed, it is a
serious situation and our people
will breathe a sigh ofrelief when
it is settled and folks can work
unmolested, and the country un-
disturbed by striking disorders.

WHOLESALE THIEF
Store Of l. D. Frutehey at Mangum
Raided Friday Night and $500
Worth Of Clothing, Shoes etc. Hauled
Away.

,
Last Friday night between the
hours of IL and 3 o'clock, the
store of L. D. Frutchey at Man
gum, in the upper part of Rich
mond county, was broken into
and clothing, shoes, etc. to the
value of around $500 were stolen.
Entrance was made through a
front window. despite the fact
that the store fronts the main
highway and is in front of an oc-
cupied residence; and, too, a bright
moon was shining.
So anxious is Mr.. Frutchey to
discover the thief or thieves, that
he is offering a reward of $100
for their arrest and conviction.
It was a nervy bit of thievery,
especially since the man they
stole from is a County Com
missioner, and in addition is a
memberof the present six-months
Grand Jury.
In last Mondays Greensboro
News appeared an account of
the arrest on Saturday near Dan
vile, Virginia, of a white man

Coal Survey.

Fifty coal dealers in North
Carolina assembled in Raleigh
Monday for a conference with
Coal Director R.O Self regarding
the coal supply for the State.
Mr.. John L. Armistead, of Rock
ingham, was appointed to make
the coal survey for Richmond,
Scotland and Arson counties.
This survey is really to ascertain
the needs for domestic coal. If
the strike continues it is possible
a really drastic coal ratloning
method may be employed, similar
to that prevailing during the
World War. The Government
is going to see to it that indus
tries are supplied with fuel and
the people with domestic coal,
strike or no strike. And the
Director made a good selection
in appointing John Armistead 10
make this survey of the domestic
coal needs.
