Prc.~pe.-t Hill, August 18. —One of

Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 17.— Leo. M. Frank’s body was brought to Atlanta this afternoon and secretod in a barn until a crowd searching for it threat­ened serious irouiiiv. It then wns taken to an undertaking establishment, where tonight a steady stream of persons passed to view it. The tem­per of the people seemed not to wreak vengeance upon the lifeless form, but they seemed determined to personally assure themselves that it really was the body of Frank.

Forty policemen were on guard at the undertaker’s1 establishment and a crowd that blocked traffic for more than a block stood for hours in front of tha place. Th# body Was shown just as it had been cut down from the tree at Marietta this morning.

Arrangements were made to place the body 0:1 a train leaving «t mid­night tonight tor thc home of Frank'.s parents in Brooklyn. It will )>e ac­complished by Mrs. Frank, Mrs. Frank’s brother, A. E. Marcus, Davit! I. Marx, H, A. Alexander and Mi-. Haas.

Shortly after 7 o'clock tonight the undertaking establishment was close:!, and. a cordon of police .stationed about it. No one v.us allowed' to approa; "1'; within ;*>(! fee! ot' thc iuiiidii:^.

Men and boys did a thriving busi­ness on the streets here tonight sell- ins post card photographs <ii' Frank body as it swung from the tree ■1

which it was found hanging near Maric-U.a.

.At 10 o'clock tonight thc- doers of the undertaking establishment again wore opened to the public and 200 k\ 300 persons who had been waiting in the vicinity viewed the body, which had been prepared for burial. They continued to pass the coffin until a short time before it was made ready to take to the railroad station.

Friends and relatives had planned to hold a private funeral at 11 o’clock tonight. Mrs. Frank, who had arrive i from MiliedgoTille, tonight and was taken to thc home of Herbert Haas, objected, however, and the plan was abandoned.

The body of Leu M. Frank, under a heavy police guard, was placed a board a Southern railway train, which de­parted at 32:01 o’clock this morning, The funeral party, including Mrs. Prank and several Atlanta friends of the family who will accompany the body to Brooklyn, was guarded care-

thin'r .itew in the way of fashion. It is one cf their pastimes and amuse­ments, this wearing of the new in^ dress, as f:. ;t as the couturiers can contrive to pi o^uce it.

..People like- to be appreciated and they like to have pleasant things said of them. There are some who say that they are nothing for that: sort of thing, but whenever we have heard such a remark we have always had the gravest kind of doubts as to its sincerity.

But there are people outside of those who really feel an interest in you who use the outside expression of tliat idea in order to jab you under the fifth rib, to get at you in places which are such as to offer no chance of defense. You know the kind of people who are meant, and that is, if you have kept your eyes open, and have not been taken in with “ gold bricks.”

When that expres­sion comes to your ears you know, nine cases out of ten, that ther? 13 tp be said something that is going to hurt you, something to which you will have to listen, or take to precipitate flight to get away from it.

NEW STORE.

Burlington is to have a new me1'- ■chant in the person of Mr. Chas, A, Switzer, of Greenville, S, C. He will occupy the store room recently va­cated by the T-.vice-A-Week Dispatch. From all reports our people will be delighted with Mr. Switzer, and The Dispatch welcomes him io our progres­sive little city.

IN NEW QUARTERS,

We have moved, the Dispatch office is now located ir. the rear of the Waller 8uildinf~, where it formerly -was. We will be glad to have our friends and subscribers call when down street, up street or in the city, we will also appreciate any news items that you will send u; convenient caii phone No.

We are of the opinion that the !> "iU er of repairing wooden buildings within the fire limits could be haiidleJ much more equitable by mutual agree­ment .between the owner and the city than-the present policy of not allow­ing any repairs within certain limits of the city known as the fire limits. W e'are in perfect accord with the policy not to allow any new wooden buildings erected within the fire limits, but where a.building is already erected and is in good condition ex­cept some slight repair, we believe that the city should enter into' a con­tract with the owner to allow him to repair it for a cerain length of time, say five years, after which time th■ owner agrees to tear the woode.i building down and replace it with

Whatever may be said about the Fogleman case, wherein t.he Fogleman brothers undertook to recover their sales stable upon Front Street, Mr. Ode Fogleman who is a member of the Board of Aldermen did not ask that the fii-e limits bc changed for his benefit as has been done in times past. Our citizens well remember how many times the Sre limits has been changed in order that the favor­ed few might have an opportunity repair their wooden buildings or build new additions to their buildings, -while others who were less influential took chances upon making the additional improvements and were fined the small sum of one dollar and the cost” But were Mr. Fogleman dealt with this leniently, indeed no. he was fined the maximum penalty of fifty dollars, While others heretofore who were just as guilty as Mr. Foreman only paid one dollar.

The placc which has been selected is an ideal one, being centrally Located and within easy reach of a majority of the churches. The train schedule is tiut-’h that those churches located on and near the railroad may reach the place on the morning trains and leturn on the evening trains. Thc spacious grounds, the beautiful sur­roundings and the cool breezes, all ot which are features of the park, make the place famous tor picnics and Sun­day School rallies.

The time to begin will be as soon a_ the people can gel there and the good time 'will continue as long as the peo­ple can remain.

The special features of the day will he a$picnic dinner, furnished by the •hurchcs that .attend, speaking by

Prof. T. O. Pender of Mebane, the well-known singer and director of vocal music, will he present and con-

war loss of $400,049,000, and a bale of cotton brave enough to enter a European port must pay a ranBom pf half its value or go to prison until the war is over.Hope o f the Future Lies In Co-opera­

tion.The Farmers’ Union, through th©

columns of the press, wants to thank the American people for the friend­ship, sympathy and assistance given the cotton farmers in the hour of dis­tress and to direct attention to co­operative methods necessary to per­manently assist the marketing of all farm products.

The present emergency presents as grave a situation as ever confronted the American farmer and from the viewpoint of the producer, would seem to justify extraordinary reli»f meas­ures, even to the point of bending the constitution and straining business rules in order to lift a portion ot the burden off the hacks of the fanner, for unless something is done to check the invasion of the war forces upon the cotton fields, the pathway of the European pestilence on this continent will be strewn with mortgaged hones and famine and poverty will stalk over the southland, tilling the highways ot i industry with refugees and ths bank­ruptcy court with prisoners.

All calamities teach as lessons and the present crlsln serves to illuminate the frailties of our marketing meth­ods and the weakness of our credit system, and out ot the financial an­guish and travail of the cotton farmer will come a volume ot discussion and a mass of suggestions and finally a solution of this, the biggest problem In the economic life of Amcriea. if. indeed, we have not already laid the foundation for at (east temporally n* lief.Mem Pharaohs Nasded in Agriculture.

Farm products have no credit and. perhaps can never have on a perma­nent and satisfactory basis unless we ■ build warehouses, cold storage plants, i elevators, etc.. for without storage and: ,credit facilities, - the south is com- j pelled to dump Its crop on (he market at harvest time. The Hkomers' Unions, in the cotton producing states have ' for the past ten years sersistentiy ad-; vocated the construction of storage' facilities. We have built during this \ period 2.000 warehouses with a ea-! pacify of approximately 4,0(10,000 Kales und looking backward the results' would seem encouraging, but looking forward, we are able to house less : than one-third of the crop and ware- ■ houses without a credit system lose i 90 cent ot their usefulness The I problem is a gigantic one—too great! for the farmer to solve unaided. He ■ must nave the assistance of the bank­er. the merchant and the government.

In production we have reached the nigh water mark of perfection in the world’s history, but our marketing methods are most jprimitlve. In the dawn of history we find agriculture plowing with a forked stick but with a system of warehouses under govern­mental supervision that made the Egyptians the marvel of civilization, j for who nas not admired the vision of Joseph and applauded the >visdom of Pharaoo for storing the surplus until demanded ay ;he consumer.

There is much speculations as to ■whether Mrs. Warren will ever go to the electric chair. It appears that this state years ago hanged a woman, but that is about all the record we find o t putting women out oi the way legally. There is every reason why, i f capital punishment is the law, Mrs. Warren should be electrocuted. She certainly forfeited her life in the part she played in her husband’s trans­planting. Even if she didn’t really take a hand in the exercises, the fact that she saw his body thrown into a trunk- and the trunk carried down­stairs to be dumped into a river, and she never batted her eye—well, that kind of a woman is very dangerous. The further fact that she unblushing^ ly related her life of shame suggests ! that there was . no particular reason why she should live.

The last federal census reports show we now iiavS 1,5H ,000 .woiren "forking in (l'“ field, most pf the’.n -■cjutii of tbe Mason and Dixon line.

We reuu in the csteemed New Bern Journal this editorial paragraph whk*h we feel furnishes us a text worth tho consiiieratioii of 11 thoughtful re'ad- ei-s. The Journal' says:

"A red hot little Radical newspape.> harf started up over in Greensboro un­der the leadership of Gilliam Grij'Sow ‘and the 'peris of every Republican in :he State are busily engaged in pern' r.ihg “ sweet nothings” for the liirW. mud slinging sheet.

Mr. GHliam Grissom, a most desir­able citizen—a man of education and refinement; a graduate of our Slats University; a native of North- Caro­lina, is a republican. Not an office seeking republican; not a spell binder; not a trouble maker—-but a republica.’i from principle. And be it known that some of the best citizens in this state are republicans, as are some of the best citizens in the United States. The fact that a man is a republican doesn't in any way disqualify him for citixenship of the best,

iKnvn nert* i t h e one time “ solid south” the republican party, because of its reconstruction acts; because many things happily buried in a past age,®id not furnish the highest type of citizenship-'and yet even in the darkest days there were loyal repub­licans and Gilliam Grissom’g father v.as one of them.

Mr, Gillian? Grissom thinks the Protection idea the proper one, and in this he is not alone. Hundred*? of thc State's largest manufacturers, men who vote the democratic ticket in city and county and state eiecions go to the polls aud vote for Protection, That was why Taft, in this Congre?- sio?u-.l district, received a majority o f six hundred over W, J„ Bryan.

Mr. Gilliam is not writing rot. His pape'* is not a rag.

The repub­lican party is a pany of standing. So ir- the democratic party. On the tariff these two parties are divided. We agree with neither of them. We be­lieve that the tariff is a Wal and a business proposition and should be treated in the same manner as our cur­rency question is treated. We believe that a non-partisan tariff commission should settle the tariff question—the same as our State '-Corporation Com­mission settles other tax questions. The tariff is nothing in the world but a tax—a tax to secure revenues to run the government.

PER YEAR.the tariff into politics we have made

it a joke. For instance we were told

that a low tariff M* rqduce the

high cost of living. I i didn't do it. Nothing Is cheaper to the ultimate con­sumer. We are now enjoying a war tax—and yet our exports aie greater than ever in the history o f the world. The imports arc less on account of the

j war—but tariff is already admitted to be essential. Democrats are now say* :~sr will restore the tariff on

* sugar and perhaps on wool, ss a “ re­

venue measure'’—and if on those two

articles, why not on other things?

Uultimately the tariff will be revised

— and that by a dor.:ocratic adminis­

tration i f Mr. Wilson is re-elected.

Mr. Grissom is for protection. He

is honest and sane in his preachments

and as he is our neighbor, we desire

to call the Journal’s attention to this

reference to his publication. We think it has done him an injustice.— Fairbrothcrs Everything.
