PAGE TWO Ay cock Here Wednesday; Hillsboro T rims Locals, 7-4 Henderson Has Copped Two Previous Encounters Games Have Always Been Hard Fought Tilts With Rallies Deciding Them GARLAND HARRIS AND EDWARDS TO PITCH Henderson’s Starter Has Not Worked Many Games But Is Good Hurler; Edwards Is Ace of Visitors, Having Plenty of “Stuff” on The Ball Aycock will come 'back to League Fark Wednesday afternoon at 4 o’clock for their third shot at upset ting the high-riding' Henderson Inde pndnts. Their two other attmpts failed when Henderson rallied in the late innings to win both tilts. In their first encounter, one of the best games seen on the local lot this season, Otto Pahlmans team walked off the field on the lond end of & 2 to 1 score by scoring their runs in the eighth stanza. In their second en counter, a three run rally in the ninth gave Henderson a 6 to 5 verdict over the county lads. Both games were ex citing and hard fought throughout, with the rallies beieng In the locals favor. Skipper Pahlman will stake his all on the right arm of GaGrland Harris, eve of the two regular hurlers on his staff. Harris has not worked in as many games as has Pl**»sants or A. I Boyd, when he was manager of the j team, but the lad has some good pitches in his arm. James Edwards, ace of the visiting hurling staff and a constant thorne in the sides of Henderson batters, will likely handle the mound Guiles for the visitors. This boy has plenty of “stuff” on the ball and bothers local batters considerably wr.eri he is on the hill. His battery mate will probably be Wright. Dunk Poole, general utility man for the Independents, playing most any position with the same starring abil ity, will likeley catch for me local? if J. T Hamm, veterans receiver who has been on the sick list for several games, is not back in togs If Hamm comes back, PooP can gfc to second base, a post that has to be filled at every game by some recruit brought here by Manager Pahlman.

Really Intends To Mine Coal (Continued from Page One.) plans to haul coal forth«» schools with school trucks rather than pay 50 cents to $1 a ton for having it hauled, and j thus save from $50,000 to SIOO,OOO a year on the cost of coal for the schools alone. So far no formal pro tests hav e been heard from the coal dealers, and fertilizer men. Yet why should the State be eriticiz ed for doing on a small scale what the Federal government is doing on a large scale, especially with regard to power, niciy are asking here. If it is a tine thing for the government to go into the power business, thiough the TV A, and seell power t« (he public generally in competition with private power companies i- I*. not also a good thing for the State to mine its own ccal ar.d produce its own fertilizer and thus save the taxpayers from $500,000 to $1,000,000 a year? If it is a good thing for a Democratic national i dministration to go into business in an > ffort to reduce prices for the pub lic generally, isn’t it a good thing for a State Democratic administration to go into business to reduce taxes for its taxpayers? If the State planned to mine coal and seell it to the public generally br to sell its fertilizer to farmers in competition with the regu lar commercial fertilizei companies, the coal and fertilizer concerns would have a legitimate cause to coioplain, it is agreed. But all the State plans to do is to produce coal and fertilizer for its own use and not for sale. Nor will the coal mining operation, when undertaken, compete with any State industry, since no coal w mined in j North Carolina at the present time. The reason none of the coal de posits in Moore county nave never | been extensively mined, according to i most opinion here, is 'because the rail i roads and coal interests, which in turn are conceded to be controlled by the large banking interests in New York, especially the J. Pierpont Morgan in terests, have not wanted to see thejn developed and hence have made it impossible for them to get sufficient financial backing. For both the rail roads and the coal mines are admit tedly largely controlled by the New York financial powers. The railroads serving North Carolina make a large part of their revenue by huling coal into the Stat e from Virginia and West Virginia. If the coal deposits in Moore county should ever be really develop ed on a commercial plane, they would i tend to redeuce the freight earnings of th e railroads and the income of the Virginia and West Virginia coal mines, it is readily admitted. The banks in New York that work along with the railroads and the coai mines have realized this all along, it is maintained here, and have hence managed to see to it that no on e hsa been able to get sufficient capital to develop these Moore county mine de posits on a commercial scale. As a result North Carolinians continue to pay from $2 to $3 a ton freight on every ton of coal they ibuy.^-. But the State is not dependent upon New York capital to develop the coal deposits it has purchased and is not controlled by New York banks.

I Dillihay was called to the mound by ; Manager Pahlman and he worked out j a nice game, not an earned run being j , charged against him. King, visiting hurler, kept the locaja j well in chec kuntil the sixth inning when they coupled hits with errors , to push over two runs. They got two j more in the eighth on a series of hits.

Although some so or 40 other places have made inquiries with a view to seeking cannries, only four or five other places are beieng considered at this time, Mrs. O’Berry said. Present indications are that additional beef cannries may be established in Char lotte, High Point and Raleigh. So far more than 50,000 cattle habe been shipped to North Carolina, of which approximately 35,000 have al ready been recived. These have been put out on pastures as soon they have 'been tested and found free of disease. Very few have been found to be dis eased, Mrs. O’Berry sala.
