In the usual way.
North Carolinian, together with the
United States government and bank-ers
of the country, are right In get-ting
behind the organisation, and
not only givtag their endorsement,
but great material .aid.
In shewing the great value of the
association te the country Colonel
Marvin says "if you grind the sons
of the- poor men in the dust you
smother the great men o'. the coun-try,
because 33 1-3 per cent of these
men are sons of preachers and farm-ers.
H behooves every man of means
and power to get behind this move-ment
so the farmers may educate
their children."
As a good example of successful
co-operativfe tobacco marsetlng the
sneaker explained the workings in
his own state. There, ne said, they
started withodt any fun-on, but after
the tobacco was in- the warehouses
the bankers ot the state subscribed
a loan to the farmers of $5,500,000,
every cent of which was paid up
within 41 days after tne loan with
nearly $5,000,000 su/p:us in the
treasury ot the association. He said
of the 61,000 members of his state
he knew of but one who was not
satisfied With the association- Men
from all parts of tha country come,
not to see the officials, but quietly
to Investigate among the growers,
and they go away,perfectly satisfied
that the reports are true: that the
system ls a success. Of 1$4 ware-houses
leased in Kentucky, he sai-d.
124 have been fully paid for and
turned over to the association.

Washington, July B2 —The dead-lock
in the railroad strfne* situation
remains unbroken, notwithstanding
a series ot hopeful conferences be-tween
representatives of the govern-ment
and spokesmen for ens striking
railway men. a
Popular interest centers largely
in speculation concerning tae next
move of the government, but little
information along this line ls avail-able.
Ben W. Hooper, chairman of
the Railway Labor board, announced
here tonight that no tartner action
toward ending the strike Is contem-plated
by the board. .- v
In Mooseheart.'ni.,- «s M. Jewell,
head of the striking shopmen and
other union leaders bfwo been con-ferring
with Secretary ot Labor
James J. Davis. At the end of
those conferences Secretary Davis
was quoted as saying the strike
could be settled at Once If the roads
wonld restore the seniority rlgktsNtf
the strikers and it t)he labor board
would take up vthe disputed ques-tions.
This opinion, however, is not
easily harmonized with Mr. Hooper's
statement that the labor board con-templated
no further action toward.
ending tbe strike.
"There are three, principal Issues
now preventing a possible settle-ment
of the strike." said B. M. Jew-ell
in Chicago last night. He out-lined
those Issues as follows:
"1.—To discontinue contracting
out of work. •
"2.—To establish a national board
Ot adjustment,.. , . _ '
"3.—To continue sa&lorlty rights
of employes who suspended work."
Almost every railroad In the conn-try
has agreed to discontinue ou'ts!d»
contracting of shop work, It :s stated
here. What would be the attitude
of the administration toward' a na-tional
board of adjustment Is prob-lematical.

Carl York, 18 years of age, of Po-mona,
was fpund dead in the Terra
Cotta pond at Pomona Thursday
night shbrtly after dark. An in-quest
was beld on the bank of the
pond and it was believed that he
came to his death as u result, of
an aplleptlc fit while fishing from
the bank of the pond. A,bruise over
the left eye and a cut over the right
cheek bone caused some to think
that foul play may have bees done.
Examiners believe thai ne aad been
dead at least 24 hours.
Although the land is posted the
