HO MONEY IN THE TREASURY. 
President C. C. Moore Secretary 
T. B. Parker Far Behind in 
No Relief 
Not Paid. 
The financial condition of the 
North Carolina division of e 
Southern Cotton Association is 
poor. President C. C. 
Moore has been laboring day and 
night for almost a year to build 
up the State organization and so 
far has received but for his 
services. His salary is 
per year. Secretary T. B. Par- 
was to receive He 
is yet to draw his first dollar of 
salary. There is nothing in the 
treasury and the prospects are 
rather slim for much in e 
future. No effort has yet been 
made to pay the State assess- 
of for the support 
and maintenance of the national 
organization. The South Caro- 
division has already paid its 
assessment of in full. 
North Carolina has not even 
made a start. 
The only method for raising 
money for the support of the 
State organization is to have the 
county officer to n sure to 
collect the cent levy on every 
bale and forward the State's 
share of three cents to the 
proper authorities. Little 
has been paid to raising this 
money in the past, and hence 
the present deplorable condition 
of the State treasury 
When I resident Moore started 
out on s of the State 
in September, he was forced to 
sell one o his horses BO as to 
procure tho needed funds for his 
is. Such a condition of 
things cannot continue much

at Parmele, picked up a

Mr. reported the 
matter to Capt Ellsworth and 
asked him to make inquiry for 
the owner. This Capt. Ells- 
worth did on his way back to 
Washington and found that Mr. 
H. S. Congleton, of Whichard. 
who was returning home from 
Baltimore and changed cars at 
Parmele, had lost the purse. Mr. 
Congleton came over to Green- 
ville today for the purse and 
was very glad that it had fallen 
into good bands. 
Great care should be exercised 
by the property owner who is 
going to buy paint to secure the 
best and most economical paint, 
as often big claims are made for 
inferior paints. A poor paint or 
inferior paint mere stimulant 
like a treacherous expensive 
which gives only temporary 
relief to the home, while Town

years of good paint making ex-

WORDS WE APPRECIATE. 
The editor of this as 
n oilier of the Consolidated 
Tobacco Company desires lo ex- 
tend the thanks of the 
to Editor Whichard for the many 
nice and complimentary things it 
has said in behalf of the 
dated Tobacco Company. 
When almost as a boy e 
writer came from the farm to 
engage in the tobacco business in 
Greenville one of the first men to 
extend to him the hand of friend- 
ship and good wishes for 
of the business was D. J. Which- 
ard. During all the years 
to our personal 
edge this man has never failed 
an opportunity to say and do 
thing that he could for the . 
of the tobacco inter- 
of Greenville and Pitt county. 
During the early days of ti e 
m history when its fate 
most hung in the balance, when 
the other business interests of 
the town were arrayed against 
the tobacco market, 
and the Reflector stood up and 
fought for the mar- 
He opened the columns of 
his paper and many of the 
of the county remember that 
for a period of several years a 
regular tobacco department was 
conducted through the columns 
of the Reflector. This cont 
in no snail to making 
permanent the success of the 
market when it strong 
efforts to keep it from going 
down. 
The truth is we have known of 
no public enterprise that looked 
to the and advance- 
of the general interest of 
the community that the Reflector 
did not enter into the fight and 
assist with all its power in bring- 
about the successful build 
up and development of these en- 
and while all the 
p e of the county may not have 
agreed and may not have seen 
as the Reflector saw 
them, yet no one can doubt the 
sincerity and honesty el purpose 
of the Reflector in doing that 
which it thought would result in 
building up and protecting the 
moral as well as the material in- 
of the community.- L.

It always helps a man to know

is doubly appreciated be- 
cause it comes from a man 
whom we know to be sincere. In 
the past dozen or more years we 
have been thrown much with Mr.

have always found him to be a

to the community, and one whose

We have always had faith in

tobacco market would be a great 
factor in the of the

Three ways are used by farmers 
for curing and preparing their to- 
for the market; namely sun 
cured, air cured and flue cured. 
The old and cheap way is called air 
cured; the later discovery and 
proved way is called flue cured. 
In flue curing the tobacco is taken 
from the fields and racked in barns 
especially built to retain heat and 
there subjected to a continuous high 
temperature, produced by the direct 
heat of flame heated flues, which 
brings out in the tobacco that 
stimulating taste and aroma that 
expert roasting develops in green 
coffee. These similar processes give 
to both tobacco and coffee the cheer- 
and stimulating quality that pop- 
their use. 
The quality of tobacco depends 
much on the curing process and the 
kind of soil that produces it, as ex- 
pert tests prove that this flue cured 
tobacco, grown in the famous Pied- 
region, requires and takes less 
sweetening than tobacco grown in 
any other section of the United States 
and has a wholesome, stimulating, 
juicy, full tobacco taste that satisfies 
tobacco hunger. That's why chewers 
prefer Schnapps, because Schnapps 
cheers more than any other chewing 
tobacco, and that's why of 
Schnapps pass the good thing along 
one chewer makes other chewers, 
until the fact is established that 
there are more chewers and more 
pounds of tobacco chewed to the 
population in states where Schnapps 
tobacco is sold than there are in 
those states where Schnapps has not 
yet been offered to the trade. 
A plug of Schnapps is more 
economical than a much larger 
plug of cheap tobacco. Sold at 
per pound in cuts. Strictly 
and cent plugs.

He was sitting in his bed room

Holt went to the and 
called several times without 
any response. Then a shot rang 
out and when Mrs. Holt rushed 
into the hall she found Mr. Holt 
lying against the his face 
streaming with blood. The hall 
was full of smoke, The alarm 
was given over the and 
soon the house was filled with 
j an anxious crowd, 
Just to the right of the 
is an open hall door, from be- 
hind which the shot was evident- 
fired, the assailant escaping 
through the side hall door. 
There are foot marks on the 
freshly painted steps. The deed 
was evidently committed by one 
familiar with the house, who had 
secreted himself Sus-

who is being traced. Mr. Holt is 
not regarded as being in a

good manners are somewhat

a pity; for nothing so commends 
one as good manners coupled 
with a good life. To be sure, 
some people whose lives are

above reproach, have blunt and 
repelling manners. But even 
with these people it would be far 
better for all if good manners 
were coupled with the correct

is not always an intention to be

are all well enough, and some- 
time frivolity is really good

be so far as to make it 
seem a sacrifice of good manners.
