BY O. L. JOYNER.

There seems to be an errone lus
idea abroad in the minds of some
men that the Tobacco Growers
Association was organized here
at this place for the exclusive
purpose of discussing and decid
ing upon the future course of our
farmers in regard to the patented
looping system, whether or not it
should be ased byfour people, &c.

While this matter haga rightfal
place in the discussicn of the dif-
terent topics for which the asso
ciation was organized, yet it ig
not the permanent nor all impor
tant at allobject of the associa-
tion. In fact when tbe first meet-
ing was called there was no knowl-
edge of any such thing asa pat—
ent on the lcoping method of cur-
ing tobacco and hence we repeat
that while it is right and proper
tnat it thould be discussed, it is
not, by far, the only object of the
Tobacco Growers Association.

There area good many who
seem to think that after »ome dis-
position has been made of this
much talked of looping system,
why then the association will dis
band and all go home, when in
reality the business of the associ-
ation bas not really been touched.
It is perfectly natural that such a
conclusion should be reached, be-
cause just prior to the first meet-
ing this patent system of curing
tobacco was sprung upon the peo-
ple and hence as a natural conse-
quence was the first matter that
came up for discussi0) no
permarent organization been

effected this matter came up reg |

ularly at every meeting and it be

NOTES AND TOBACCO:

‘came general that the only object
lof the association was to dispose
of the looping system.

At its meeting here on Sata:-
day, happilviaud fortunately, the
‘matter was finally placed Lefore
ithe association and a partial re
port made from the committee
appointed to investigate the
course to be pursued to set aside
the patent. This report is full
and final so far as the proceed-
ings to be taken in order to an
nul the patent 18 concerned, and
for the benefit of those interested
who were not here, we give & 8vD-
opsis of the report which is: The
Commissioner of Patents says he
has no authority to set aside a
patent and the only course to be
pursued isto bring suit in the
U. S: circuit court of this State
in the name of the Attorney Gen-
eral and to prove there that pat-

|

 

ent was in common use for two
years or more before patent was,
issued. Now this is the only
course left to the farmers and the
only thing that the association
will have to do with this matter
in the future is to decide whether
they will bring suit or not.

At the next meeting of the as-}
sociatton we hope to have a large
attendance. There is business
to come up that will be very im-
portaut to the tobacco growers
every where.

Let everybody come and with-
in less than a year if every farmer
who attends regularly is not ben-—
efited by the association far more
than by any other means that he
bas ever gained information on
tobacco culture then this writer
will give it up that there is noth-

that no test case coald be brought

that it could be broaght, then it
might be ten years before any
decision would be reached.

The Washington /athsinder
recently offered a prize for the
best original history of the United-
States in 100 words Out of 911
contestants, the prize was award-
ed to W- T. Gooden, of Pana,
Ill., for the following: “The re
vival of learning, commercial
rivalry and religious zealin En-
rope led to Columbus’s discovery

of America in 1892. Conflicting
territorial claims and parental
animosity invelyed English,

French and Spanish colonists in
wars culminating in English su-
premacy in 1763. England’s op-
pression aliented cclonial affect-
ion, induced revolution, hastened
independence. Common cause
and danger begat colonial upion;
the weakness of the Confedera—
tion aemanded a Federal Repub-
lic. Party differences tempted
legislation. Negro slavery pre-
cipitated civil strife, secessivu,
emancipation. Federal authority
supreme, reorganization succaed-
ed. Religious freedom, an un-
muzzled press, inventiou, internal
improvement and universal ed-
ucation have conspired to pros’
perity at home and bonor abroad.’

 

 

A New Scheme for Revenue.

 

It is a pretty good scheme

Charlotte is working op the
dogs, this year. It is a scheme
for revenue ouly. Heretofora,

dogs without a tax paid tag were
killed. A good mady canine ‘ives
were saved and tax evaded by
the owners keeping the dogs tied
up. Killing dogs is not the ob-
ject this year. The sanitary po-
lice, who know every house in
Charlotte, know also every dog.
When they find a dog not ta-
paid, they do not kill the dog.
They require the owner to take
out a tax paid tag, or appear be-
fore the mayor and be fined. This
law is working finely and more
dog tags are being sold than
aver before heard of in Uharlotte.

Fusion Officers Favor Mixed Schoo!s.

 

We are getting a precious lot
of County Examiners under the
Fusion law. The new Fusion ex-
amiper of Polk county, says the
Rutherford Democrat, stuck up a
notice saying that all applicants
who were present on the first of

iJuly “will pay a fee of $100 at all

other times $150.” Rather high.
The Breyurd Hustle: says that
the Fusion examiner in Transy] -
vania could not get a third grade
teacher’s certificate, and has been
sending his children to a mixed
school of whites and negroes.
Does any honest or patriotic
citizen want, as the head of the
county school system, a man who
sends his children to muxed
schools? This is worse than the
Douglass miscegenation resolu-
tion.—Raleigh Wews and Observer.

Take Time.

Let us take time for the good-bye
kiss. Weshall go to the day’s
work with a sweeter spirit for it.
Let us take time to speak kind
words to those we love. By and
by, when they can no longer hear
our foolishness will seem
more wise than our best wisdom.

Let us take time to be pleasant.
The small courtesies which we
often omit because they are small

will some day look larger to us

than one wealth which we have

coyeted or the fame for which
w2 have struggled. Let us take
time to get acquainted with our
families. The wealth you are
accumulating may be a doubtfal
