OUTLOOK IS BRIGHT
For Agricultural school—Unus
ually Strong Faculty in
Charge.
The attention of our readers
is called to the advertisement of
the Tenth District Agricultural
and Industrial School to be
found in another - column of this
issue.
The prospects of the school
this year are unusually bright.
The new superintendent, Mr.
Geo. White, Jr., who is a first
honor graduate of the Universi
ty of Nashville, comes to his
work with a ripe experience in
handling young people, having
been for years superintendent
of schools in Prattsville, Ala.,
and he brings with him a high
sense of the importance of the
work whic hhe is now undertak
ing. • The most urgent need of
our country today is to have on
its farms men and women who
appreciate their advantages and
are prepared to make the most
of them. Too long has it been
the general opinion that the man
or woman who would find the
broadest field for the cultiva
tion of his talents, the widest
opportunity for the display of
his powers, and the best mone
tary returns from their use must
seek the city and there struggle
for recognition. But in this
day, when the automobile, good j
roads, rural delivery, and the
telephone place city advantages
it the home of the dweller in the
^country-; when scientific meth
ods of• agriculture make farms
yield returns which were form- (
erly not dreamed of; when mod-|
ern machinery lightens and I
lessens farm labor beyond the ■
belief of a former generation;'
moreover, since scientific meth
ods of housekeeping, sewing and
cooking have brought order out
of the former chaos of woman’s i
work, people are beginning to
awaken to the advantages to be
found on the f arm and through- ,
out the country efforts are be
ing made to educate the young
men and women in such away
that they may be prepared to
make the most of these advan
tages. This was the idea in
mind when the legisaltors of
Georgia established the agricul
tural schools, and Mr. White, the
new superintendent of the 7sn
District Agricultural
brings to his work a keen reali- I
zation of the possibilities before |
him and a firm determination i
to make this school a living fa r - j
ter in the life of the community

LEAD AND STEEL
USED ON STRIKERS
British Troops Are Compelled to
Attack Rioters at Liverpool.
I THOUSANDS OF LABORERS OUT
in Liverpool Alone 50.000 pockmen
Are On Strike. General Labor Re
volt On in United Kingdom—lncen
diary Fires Mark the Strike in Liv
erpool.
The troops were called to fire on a
mob of strikers at Liverpool. Bayonet
charges were made upon the disor
' derly element.
After the rioters had wrecked prop
erty in Great Homer street the dis
trict troops were called out and or
dered to fire. Several volleys were
fired. The mob hid in courts and
threw bottles at the soldiers, who
made bayonet charges in the dark
ness and fired volleys up the courts.
Six Soldiers Injured.
Six soldiers and two policemen were
injured. The casualties among the
rioters is not known. General Mac
kinnen Wood directed the troops.
The strike committee declared a
general strike of all transport work
ers, including the railway, who up to
the last, had refused to go out. The
strike will be effective on all tho local
steamboats and the Merzy ferries.
Seven thousand dockers struck at
Birkenhead.
During the day the lockout threat
ened by the ship owners became ef
' fective and 30,000 men were refused
employment until they decide to abide
by the terms of a recent agreement.
General Strike Declared.
The strike committee declared a
general strike of all transport work
ers, including the railway men, who,
up to the last, had refused to go out.
The strike will be effective on all
the local steamboats and the Merzy
ferries. Seven thousand dockers
struck tonight at B rkenhead.
Several fires, believed tc have beer,
of incendiary origin, occurred this af
ternoon. The most serious was at the
offices of the shipping federation,
which were gutted by the flames.
Great Railroad Strike.
There appears little hope c»f avert
ing a great railroad strike, which
probably will be accompanied by a
general labcr revolt that will have a
tremendous effect on the trade of the
United Kingdom.
At a meeting held iu London by the
managers of all railroads having ter
minals there, it was resolved that the
| time had arrived to resist the men’s
encroachments. The managers coni 1
>■ tend.that the men, by striking-, -wjl.il
violate the agreement arrived at after ।
the railway troubles of 1907, nndgi.l
which all disputes were to be referred
to conciliation boards or an arbitra
tor. This agreement, they say, was
to run until 1914.
The meeting was unanimous that
the only way-to terminate dislocation
of business would be to take a firm
stand and refuse all concessions tc
the men. The managers expressed
fear that there would be grave troub
les on all the railway systems before
the present week is ended.
NEGRO WAS BURNED.
It Is Sa-id Quakers Who Took Part ir
Lynching Are Known.
No arrests have been made in con
nection with the lynching of the neg
ro, Ezekiel Walker, who was dragged
on a bed from a hospital and burned
I alive on the outskirts cf Coatesville
Pa. The authorities of Chester coun
ty, it is said, possess a list of about
thirty men who are alleged to have
been in the mob. Warrants, if any
are issued, will not be sworn out un
til the investigation has been com
pleted.
Borough, county and state officials
are uniting in efforts to bring the mot
leaders to justice, but it is alleged
some of the leading citizens of the
town are involved and arrests will nol
be hastily made. The borough coun
cil held a special meeting and adoptee
resolutions deploring the outrage, anc
similar resolutions were passed by the
Business Men’s Associat on.
The district attorney refused to di
vulge the names, if any- were furnish
ed him, of the persons who were act
ive in the lynching.
ROADS TO FIGHT RATES.
Say Readjustment cf Schedules Will
Cost Them $10,000,000.
Executives of the big trans-conti
nental railroads are considering the
steps necessary to be taken as a re
suit of the recent decisions by the in
terstate commerce commission order
ing a complete readjustment of the
Western rate schedules.
That the railroads will take the
fight to the courts was predicted al
Chicago. Railroad men declared that
the order to reduce rates would cos!
the railroads $10,000,000..

Laws and Facts Concerning Banks
and Banking
THE INCENTIVE TO ACCUMULATE WEALTH
IS THE PRINCIPAL POWER WHlffH IMPELS
MEN TO ACTIVITY IN ALL, BUSINESS WALKS
OF LIFE.
THE FIRST STEP IS TO ACQUIRE MONEY, ’
THE SECOND IS TO SAVE IT.
IN FRAMING UP THE LAWS UNDER WHICH
BANKS ARE ORGANIZED AND CONDUCT
ED, LEGISLATIVE BODIES HAVE ALWAYS KEPT
IN MIND THAT BANKING HOUSES ARE ABSO
LUTELY NECESSARY IN ALL COMMERCIAL
CENTERS FOR CONVENIENCE AND SAFETY
IN CARRYING ON BUSINESS.
The lawmakers have wisely put into the laws
such safeguards and restrictions as protect- the
people in their transaction with banks, thus fur
nishing the public a place of safety in which to de
posit money, as well as a place to borrow when in
need of funds.
In the daily newspapers we. often read of money
hidden in the home being stolen. Under tho bunk
ing laws of this state the farmer, mechanic, mer- ’ -
chant and all other can deposit in a state bank and .
feel assured of being amply protected against the
lawless characters who are seeking opportunities
to steal the accumulations resulting from the in
dustry and economy of others. • ,
The depositors in the Irwinton Bank not only
have the integrity of the banker and the strong
arm of the state, as well as the double liability of
the stockholders, but we are members of the DE
POSITORS’ GUARANTEE FUND, with a backing
of over Two Hundred and Sixty Thousand Dollars.
