C., under Postal Act of March 3, 1879. March 24, 1915 "The Monroe Journal, in re coniing me trial ol tlie negro Robinson, the ''Indian Doctor," made the following comment: "This is a case in which a great .deal of smoke has conie front a little fire. 1 here is considerable dissatisfaction in the section where Robinson worked at the severity of the sentence, and petitions are being circulated asking the judge to remit the road sentence. There was no evidence that litis negro did anybody any harm. Medical doctors have in times past been before the courts in this county charged with practicing without license and let off with a nonii nal fine or the mere costs. It is certain that a great many people llvit ihft omtiinci" ic Inn J severe and their sense of justice ( is shocked. I le had never been _% up before, the indications were that he had no intention of violating the law. Under the circumstances it would seem to be sufficient to meet all the demands of good public policy to at least give the man a chance to stop without having to work eight months on the. chain gang. This paper is frank to sav that it hopes Judge De\ in may see his vvav clear to comply with the spirit of the petitioners." The memory ot one Jones, the preacher-doctor, who held torth ' *' in such magnificence in these parts during a certain period, not nso long since, forbids that we ^^^J^W:ree to the sentiments express j^nHBRHkabovc, when we consider that jjjm^^was a negio who ^laimed {Ordered From Chicago. The Lexington, N.C. Dispatch says: It is related llinl a young married man of this riiv. lnnlrino about for furniture with which to fit up a home for himself and bride, could not find anything in his home town that filled the bill. Somehow the stuff the home merchants offered did not show up as well as that offered by thc(mail order houses in faraway Chicago and he sent an order to Montgomery Ward & Co., for the furniture. Iu due season a dray drove up at his resiuence ana unloaded tlie furniture and all of it came from the Elk Furniture Co., right heie in Lexington. The Chicago company sent .the order to Mr, jolin L. G alii more, secretary and treasuicr of the Elk Furniture Co., of this city to be filled. This ujung man will doubtless look around a little more carefully next time before he orders from out of town merchants. He is a fine young man, a good citizen, but he didn't stop to think that when he sent his money to Chicago he wasn't doing the right thing. A part of it stayed in Chicago but luckily a part of it came back home. A thing like that happens only once in a great while. Generally every cent ol the money goes and never comes back. The mail ord'cr man does not pay taxes in Lexington. 1 he mail order house does not stand ready to help a man when lie's down and out. The mail order house does not contribute a peony towards building up Lexington and Davidson county. The home merchant do'es and this young man should have bought of tiie home merchant. Buying from the mail order house is unpatriotic, unbusinesslike and altogether unwise. Card of 'I hanks.
