PROSPECTOR SEEKS
GOLD FOR 60 YEARS
Modern "Forty-Niner" Digs
Every Day in Hills Near
t.. Charlotte, N. C.
Nv the Associated Press.

" the Associated Press,
CHARLOTTE, N. c., December IT,
For go years r. r. PlIImmer has sought
gold at his doorstep finding barely
enough to keep the wolf from his door
and still he hunts.
At the age of 86, this present-day
"Forty- miner still hopes against hope,
searching for the few grains that will
buy gingham dress for his wife or
clothes for himself.
He has farmed an acre Of land, but
gets little from that, so he spends most
of his time digging, pounding and
looking.
Years ago Plummer moved into
house miles from here, house
pock- marked with bullet holes made
by Americans who drilled rife balls
into the foot-sqllare logs behind which
a British officer took refuge during
skirmish in the Revolution.
Around the house he has dug holes,
many holes, and the section is dented
with shallow excavations and apparent
" bottomless shafts, where the octo-
genarian has sought fortune.
When the Civil War was raging,
plummer mined iron for Confederate
cannon and since then has probed the
earth for gold. finding few penny
weight week in rocks he crushes in
a hand mortar before washing them In
a nearby stream.
"I'Il find a lot soon," he says, but
there is sad, melancholy tone in
his voice. There's a lot of gold here
abouts and I'm sure to hit it some
day"
And so, bent with the years, he digs
day after day, seeing indications of Q
rich strike in the next rock he viii
break, maybe tomorrow.

Same Old War Cru

THIS is the first time Maine has
Il gone Democratic in a pres
idential year since 1880. 1t also is
the first time that the vets have
won anything like complete victory
since Maine went prohibition in
1884.
Mr.. Hoover and the eighteenth
amendment must be credited with
having wrought little less than a
miracle. Why imagine that Maine is
the only state affected?
Republican managers seek con-
ISOLATION in no such Specious fancy.
Their only hope is that Maine may
have shocked the nation and thus
saved it from Roosevelt and Garner.
Republican managers still are 60
ing on the theory that terrible
things are in store for the good old
U. S. A. if their party is not re-
tanned in power. What is even more
they are going on the
theory that they can make some
2O,OO0,OOO impoverished farmers, I'M
employed laborers, and hard pressed
business men believe it.
just how things could be much
worse than they have been is hard
to see, but Republicans are so used
to promising disaster if they should
lose that they can't think of any
other battle cry.

Official Murder

Spain we are apt to think of as a violent and
bloody country, which enjoys CORY sport and uses
direct methods to rid itself of both royalty and estab
liShed religion.
Yet Spain has adopted a new constitution which
aboliShes capital punishment. And this country of
ours, which worships the idea of effectng change
through ballots instead OF bullets still INDUCES
throughout much of its territory in the most I'M
civilized of modern practices-oficial cold-blooded
taking of human life.
SPANS decision on capital punishment aligns her
with twenty-five other countries of Europe and Latin
American which have abandoned the medieval con-
cept that the example of Official murder somehow
may prevent private murder
In this country eight states have rejected this
outworn folly
Probably, If the United States were confronted
with the need of framing new fundamental laws
with thinking out the problems which habit and ira
dition too often allowed to solve, she would
aize that the experiment Of these eight states
cIusivey has demonstrated the futity of state killing
The homicide rate in twenty-six states which
tain capital punishment was s.5 per 100000 popula-

What Price Censorship

The Rev Robert Shuler of Los Angeles for several
years has broadcast over his church radio weekly
sermons that for bitterness and invecve recalled the
WITHDRAWING polemics of old Cotton Mather
Because ne careless of personal regulations.
and because his charges were not always accurate.
he was adjudged by the good people of Los Angeles
public nuisance. They applied to the federal radio
commission to revoke his radio permit
At that time this newspaper warned against such
course. We said that, much as we disiked this
type Of citizen, he entitled to be heard further
more if he were suppressed his martyrdom would
endow him with greater power.
The radio commission, however, took away his
permit.
Now California realizes the mistake of that
action. Shuler a candidate at the recent pri-
msries for the United States senate He ran on the
Republican, Democratic and Prohibition tickets When
the votes counted it found that ShuIer had
polled nearly 100000 more votes in all than those
OF either Senator shortridge or William Gibbs
McAdoo
He will be the November ballot as prohibition
nominee, and if he runs as he did in the primaries
he will win the Senatorship
Thus again is proved in a modern setting the old
old adage, 1.-THE blood of martyrs is the seed of
rebellion"
Shuler should have been given every opportunity
TO say his say unhampered except by SANDER laws.

Scientific Theories

The layman was bewildered when the Einstein
theory of relatively took the center of the intellectual
stage shortly after the World war Gradually his be-
wilderment gave way to resignation. He didn't quite
know what the scientists meant by curved space a
united spacetie and other details of the theory but
he was willing to believe that they were so If the
worlds leading scientists said so.
In time, however, by reading the more popular
announcements of Eddngton Jeans Millikan and
others, he formed reasonably good picture of new
universe, with its peculiarities Of expanding space
variable time, and matter that could be transformed
into energy
From such books Jeans mysterious Universe "
he even began to acquire new philosophy based upon
these ideas
The present year, therefore is likely to appear to
the average layman even more bewidering than
1919 1t is likely that 1882 will go down in history as
the year that scientists changed their minds
Early in the year, Enstein and his colleague De
Sitter, announced that maybe space wasn't expand
ing after all At any rate, they said there was Moth
ing in the theory to indicate whether it was or not
The other day, as David Dietz reports from the
meeting of the International Astronomical Union at
Cambridge, Mass, Sir Arthur Eddngton said that he
was certain that the universe expanding but that
1t was not nearly old as has been supposed during
He cut the age of the universe from fifteen trion
years to ten billion years more drastic drop than
even the stock market took
Eddngton goes step farther and says that while
the universe appears to be expanding maybe. after
ALL 1t isn't The same effect, he says, would be
achieved If space was stationary and everything in
the universe, including sum- our earth and everv
thing on it. shrinking
This notion of universal shrinkage may contain
some crumb OF comfort for those whose securities
shrank during the last year or two
But putting all banter aside what lesson is the law
man to learn from 1892? Perhaps the most inpor
tant one is to regard scientific theories in the
light that the scientist himself does
The scientist does not regard Enstein's RELATIVELY
or Eddington'S theory any other theory as final.
he merely regards them the best conclusions at the
moment from the available facts He expects to
change these conclusions as new facts come to light.
The layman who reads science must learn to be
quick on his mental feet.

Editor Times-We have had occa-

the vicinity of indianapolis from
two to four times a day by cou-

officially that no one, in an official
capacity or any other capacity, has
the authority to stop a car on a
highway of Indiana without hav-
ing a uniform or credentials stat
ing from where they received their
authority, so that the responsibility
of their actions can be traced to
some one higher up.
Voters of the nation in general,

not annoy people who are trying to

Genius May Have Touch of Insanity

necessary if a man is to be success
full, but that slight touch of in
sanity is necessary to raise him out
Of the many who also are successful,
If he is to be really distinguished.
An analysis made of the life of the
great German leader Goethe shows
that he passed through periods OF
excitement at regular intervals of
seven years.
Each of these periods was
marked by great fervor for writing
poetry or dramatic works, and a
marked propensity to fall in love.
Between periods he was subject to
hypochondria and piety.
Under modern classification. this
would be called a cyclothymic men
tai disorder. 1t also has been called
circular insanity.
Professor Pillsbury feels that
genius represents a desirable de-
parture from the normal and in
sanity an undesirable departure
from the normal.
1t can not be denied that some
forms of genius may be related to
insanity, but there are so many
factors in genius besides insanity
that mental .abnormality can not be
given the credit for being the ba-
sis of genius.

Hoover Economy

President Hoover has performed public duty and
has echoed popular sentiment WELL by ordering his
budget director and his cabinet members to reduce
estimated expenditures OF the for the next
fiscal year. and to prepare for complete organization
of executive and administrative bureaus
Preparation of the budget is the foundation of
fiscal policy and any real saving in government costs
must begin here in this task for which the President
is responsible Hoovers recognition of this response
blity now is more commendabe than dozen econ
omy messages to congress later.
Similar requests for economy have been uttered
during other annual budget hearings by President
Hoover and by other Presidents without being followed
at the proper time either by real budgeary savings
or real reproof of those who failed to make them
1t remains to be seen whether President Hoover's
December budget will this unhappy precedent.
Certain parts of his new statement on economy seem
TO justify alarm rather than confidence. He, for in
stance, invites his department heads to make the
savings he calls for partly, perhaps largely from
struction work, telling them that expenditures for
creating employment will be less necessary" after
next June.
An economy program based on this sort OF rever-
sion to the Pollyanna psychology which has charac-
terized administration thinking during the depression
be nothing but false front. Prosperity not
return over night.
No matter what miracles occur between now and
June unemployment still will exist at that time
Congress will be aware of this fact, whether the
President is not, and will appropriate money for
public construction, just it did last session.
If Mr.. Hoover presents budget in December
showing savings only in construction items his
economy" program will be wiped out by congress- and
should be-
1t is discouraging, also, to md President Hoover
still ignoring in his statement, the parts of the gov
eminent budget where real saving urgently need to
be made.
Not word does he say about the two billion dol
lars spent annually for veterans sum which large
portion of congress believes could be reduced He is
silent about the $55 900 subsidy handed each year
by the government to steamship and aviation COM
panies.
In spite of the obvious attitude of the country to-
ward prohibition he says nothing about reducing the

nually Congressional committees found last winter
that the government might from $4,000 900 to

Hoover authority to make these consultations at
once but he has not acted.

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE

The great philosopher Schopen-
hauer had pathologic fears and de-
lusions of grandeur, as did also the
Russian novelist, Gogol.
Of course, much depends on ones
definition of what constitutes ge-
MUS or talent, and also on the def
milton Of insanity.
A careful study of the subject
would seem to indicate that an oc-
casional man of great ability may
have been insane, but under such
circumstances he probably is compe-
tent in spite of his abnormality
rather than because of it
The philosophers may be omitted
Immediately from the category of
insanity; their PHILOSOPHERS may
have attracted attention because
they were different rather than be-
cause of any extraordinary genius
shown in the conceptions.
Some of the great leaders of the
past believed that their work was
due to the fact that some higher
power within them merely was using
their voice.
This was the reflection of the an
Gent belief in habitation of the
body by spirits and demons. The
modern psychologist Kretschmer
believes that talent and capacity are
