The democratic campaign in North
Carolina leading to the general cleo
lions in November is tentatively set
to be launched at Asheboro, in terri
tory which is normally republican, on
August s with an address by Gov. o.
Max Gardner.
Close on the heels of that event the
democratic state executive committee
is expected to meet here to name a
new state chairman to direct the par
tvs activities this fall.
Governor Gardner has accepted an
invitation to speak to the Randolph
county democratic convention at
Asheboro on the 9th of August if he
can leave his office here, and it is
generally understood here now that
the executive committee meeting,
postponed from this month, will prob
ably be held about August 10, though
it may be changed again.
The governors speech August 9th
will be the opening democratic talk,

SCHOOLS OPERATING
AT THE LOWEST
FIGURE POSSIBLE
Only Through Prompt
Payment OF Taxes Will
The Present Term OF
Nine Months Be Main
tanned.

At a joint meeting Of the school
board and city council held Monday
night, it was practically assured that
the Salisbury city schools would con-
tinue with their present 9 months term
for the year 1929.
The school budget has been reduc-
ed to the lowest figure possible, and
if the city tax payers meet their OBJ
legations there will be no question of a
nine months term for next year. The
levy of 4Oc per 500 valuation will
adequately supply the $4,000 need
ed for the school operation next year.
Under this plan the deficit Of $4,000,
which has been existing for some time
will be cleared up.
The council considered its tentative
budget for the year, and formally
adopted the estimated schedule sheet.
Garland E. Martin, accountant OF the
James M. Archer company, certified
public accountants, submitted the
tentative schedules, and these were
adopted. The gener; | operating ex-
pense of the city have been consid-
erably reduced, while the debt service
remains the largest item in the budget.
1t was stated that on account OF the
shrinkage in revenue during the past
year, particularly in the debt service
department, the city had not been able
to meet payments on some notes and
bonds, but had retired $4,000 III
notes and debts, and had handled 9TH
er obligations. Mayor Hedrick and the
city officials are now seeking to per
feet arrangements for refunding and
refinancing certain city obligations
which will make the debt burden cas-
ier for the coming years.
The tentative budget as adopted last
night for the year ending June 80
1888, is as follows:
General fund ---$136,62S.9e
Water Dept. operating --- 36,>oo'oO

Saturday at Newton by Clifford Fra

Talk in political circles here still

ing scant consideration from the man

Ancient Wall
In Rowan
A Subterranean Wall That Morse's
Geography Tells About Two
Years Ago.

In the county of Rowan, about 10
miles southwest from Salisbury 200
from the sea and 70 from the noun
tains is a remarkable subterraneous
wall. 1t stands on uneven ground, near
a small brook. The stones of the wall
are all of one kind and contain iron
ore. They are of various sizes, but gen
orally weigh about four pounds. All
are of a long figure, commonly seven
inches in length, sometimes II. The
end of the stones form the sides OF the
wall. Some of these are square, Others
nearly of the form of a parallelelo-
gram, triangle rhombus or rhomboids;
but most of them are irregular. Some
preserve their dimensions through the
whole length; others terminate like
wedge. The alternate portion OF great
and little lends aid in keeping the
work square. The surface of some is
plain, of some concave, of others con-
vex Where the stonss are not firm
they are curiously wedged with Others
The most irregular are thrown into
the middle of the wall. Every stone is
covered with cement, which next to
the stone, has the appearance OF iron
rust. Where it is thin the rust has pen
etrated through. Sometimes the &C.
ment is an inch thick, and where wet
has the fine, soft, oily feeling of put
ty. The thickness of the wall is uni
formly y inches, the length yet dis
covered is about 800 feet, and the
height - or IA. Both sides of the wall
are plastered with the substance in
which the stones are laid. The top OF
the wall appears to run nearly parallel
with the top of the ground, being gen
erally about a foot below the surface.
In n place it is several feet. There
is a bend or curve of E feet or more,
after which it proceeds in its former
direction.
The whole appears to be framed in
the most skilful manner, but when or
for what purpose is left entirely to
coniecture.-Morse's Geography.

 Australia already has a market for her wool An empire meat quota by which Australia would benefit may be asked, but in view of Britain's stake in the Argen- tine, this is doubtful of attain ment.
 But Australia feels that an em- pire market for it's dairy products and fruit should be relatively easy of adjustment" says J. G. Latin am, deputy leader in the new Can- berra government.
 Alone among the dominions South Africa would not seem to have much to gain from Ottawa. There is already ample market for South African wool; South Afri- can maize is admitted into Eng land free, but so too is maize from Argentina, and tariff against Argentine maize is most improb- able.
 A preference on fruits might be of some use, but ii gained at the expense of a South African pref erenee on manufactures which South Africa is attempting to pro- duce herself or buys more cheaply from the United States, the price may be too high
 Dairy products are the principal exports Of New Zealand, the Irish Free State; and the Irish Free State may find it's case at Otta- wa injured by political difficulties with the mother country. -
