Mr. W. F. Harding, of the Charlotte
bar, received notice of his appoint-
to the judgeship of the four-
judicial district of North Caro-
yesterday afternoon at o'clock.
The news of Mr. Harding's
to the Judgeship was quickly
borne by friends of the entire,
of the local bar and for an
hour Judge Harding held an informal
reception his office and
and expressions of satisfaction
were forthcoming from lawyers
friends, county and city officials and
others, who were eager to make known
their pleasure at the success of a
man who has for many years held a
position of the highest esteem and con-
both among his fellow-lawyers
and among the people of Charlotte.
Mr was personally notified
by long distance by Mr.

Biographical.
Judge Harding was born at
fort. N. Nov. He is tho-
son of Maj. Harvey Harding, a civil
war veteran. Like many other
lights in North Carolina life, Judge
Harding got his inspiration from th;
farm. His mental and physical
whose foundations were laid
on the farm, testify to his good for-
in being a farmer boy.
Judge Harding first practiced law
Greenville. N. C, where he was in
partnership with his brother under
the firm name of Harding and Hard-
He practiced Greenville for
years and came to Charlotte to
flee in 1903, January 1st.
Judge Harding is strong, hand-
some, highly educated; a man of
poise and character, and splendidly
equipped for the position to which ho
been appointed.
He graduated at Chapel Hill in
having taken a strong stand
his class. He was not ambitious for
but got what is
thoroughness and mastery of what-
ever he undertook In
but modest. Judge Harding has
risen to the height of his profession
years, an achievement which a
lifetime often falls to accomplish.
Judge Harding has always taken
an active Interest in politics, but of
the nature that and
at the name time most effective in Its
Influence over people. On the farm,
at school, in Greenville, and here in
Charlotte he has always been In the
front for the rights of the people; and
on the bench no humble need
ever fear that his rights be lost

The fourth report on cotton gin-
for the crop of 1913 has recent-
been made public by the govern-
authorities In Washington City.
Figures showing the comparison be-

the name period last year have bet n
announced, showing the standing o.
each county in the state. Separate
county totals were furnished to local
agents over the state, and these were

county shown a shortage over last
year's crop of bales, while the
difference in other counties of the
state is very much greater than this.
Pitt county had ginned for the same
period last year bales as against
this year to the present
time.
Beaufort county, which was so de-
by severe storm of
ginned less than half the
amount this season that was ginned
last year. For the period in 1912 a
total of were reported as
having been ginned, while for the
same season of 1913 only were
reported. This shows a shortage of
bales, and Edgecombe
show shortages almost as large,
the same Is true of Craven, Martin
Lenoir, Wilson and other neighbor-
counties.
What Is true with to these
counties in the eastern portion of
North Carolina, it is to noticed
that many of the counties of the
west show considerable gain over last
year's crops. Mecklenburg gives a
total of than increase
while Catawba almost doubles this
year.
For the entire state taken as n
whole, however, there Is a shortage
of bales. Last season the
state had ginned to the present time
bales, as against this
year. For the southern states this
year's crop Is only a little more than
bales short, and It Is yet too
early In the season to ascertain or to
any sort of an accurate
Judgment as to the crop for the en-
tire year. The late crops may run

these may ho smaller than they are
