NEARLY BUSTED. The U. S. Steel Corporation is indeed a poverty-stricken organization.. Its profits during the w*ar years were especially small. In 1916, after all charges and 8 3-4 per cent dividends on the common stock had been paid, < It had a surplus left of only $200,000,000. Since then it has made a little les3 The steel trust is so poor ; that we may yet be compelled to as* sist it with a popular subscription, or |?i lUllWllUll. Jake ]> Ha moil, Oklahoma oil millionaire and Republican politican, deserted his wife and children and i'or Ion years lived at an Ardmore, Okla.. hotel with Clara Smith Hamon the divorced wife of his nephew. Then on.e fine day Hamon was shot, and his paramour was charged with the crime. The result is well known ? a great hub-bub in the press, the trial and the verdict. "The wages of sin" i is a law as inimitable as the law of gravitation. And sijd wages are never reduced, in good times or bad. Though railroad c.v 'i.iti.-es and officials are opposed to government ownership of the roads, sorae of them 1 admit that the only way out. of the 5 present chaos in the transportation industry is increased governmental supervision. President Harding ia expected to send a message to Congress which will practically suggest increased federal control. As the railroadH have been getting millions of dollars from the government it is logical to assume that the government should have some say in managing the roads, especially as neither the railroads nor the employes soein able to agree on a practical method. 1 THE FARM TARIFF BILL AVI) COTTON. The farm tariff bill that was vetoed by President Wilson, but which will be repassed by Congress and signed by President Harding, provides heavy, tariffs on lemons and olives, thus piotecting the California. Florida and Texas industries having to do with the raising of thesp fruits; and also nrnlul<tl: clll'Hr nnil IVftnl wflrlri n tr *' - ' * ?l for the l>e?nefit of Louisiana growers of sugar *nd the beet sugar indus?-j j? northerly and western states. The bill also, of course, aims to help the wool growers including those alio raise wool largely "on the side." The wool grower is in a peculiar situation. There is said to be more wool in the1 country at present than is being used. The wool is in storage. So long as manufacturers can make "all wool" goods that are only partly wool the market for wool in this country will not be much helped by a tariff, it is claimed by competent observers. A law compelling more wool in wool clothes would do the trick. # But what concerns Herald readers most is legisla ion that will boost the price ot cot'.on. If the United Stales import! i cotton to any considerable ex e.it a high protective tariff woul- help, but unfortunately just at t' .s time the United States oanrot xport much of the big surpl' u I.as on hand. Therefore it can > iken for granted that there will no tariff legislation affecting cotton. The cotton farmer being in a class bj himself must depend largely on his own resources. Curtailment of acreage is his only hope. Nothing that congress could do would be of any immediate benefit. The buying power of Europe is at its lowest ebb, and it Is doubtful if the United States could raise money enough to put Europe on Its feet again any tlm? soon. The improvement must come slowly and in the meantime trig cotton far raer must make up his mind to take care of himself. AGED MAN INJURED. A Mr. Williamson, an aped white man who lives on E. L. Moore's McKtnzlp place, was thrown from a wapon on Railroad avenue Tuesday afternoon, and sustained a serious fracture of thr left hip bone. H<* was taken to the Florence Infirmary that night. Mr. Williamson was sitting in the- back of the wagon when the mule,, became frightened and dashed off. o Rather contend for valor with the brave, than for wealth with the rich or in rapaciousness with the covetous. , * THE DILLON HE JOSE PHI'S DANIELS AS NEWS REPORTED. Washington, March 19.-?Former Secretary of the Navy Josephus Daniels 'n his new capacity of reporter, went in with other newspaper correspondents today for the morning conference wit h his successor. Secretary of the Navy Denby. The greeting between the old and the new naval chiefs was very cor ii iii i. liom secretaries were in good humor, and Mr. Daniels intimated the act s ot the ng w regime, insotar as they endorsed his politics, were very commendable. No objection was made to this attitude of Mr. Daniels by Mr. Donby, and, as a matter of fact, there have been few changes made by Mr. Denby since took over the office of Mr. Daniels. I Mr. Daniels will be l^ere for a few days "covering*' the news for his own newspaper, the Raleigfi News and Observer, which has a bureau in Washington. He also will write for a syndicate a series of articles on the navy , generally past and present. ! As a North Carolina reporter, Mr. Daniels had the usual axe to grind, but in a very jocular way. "I hope, Mr. Secretarv," he said, "that on your tour of observation of the fleet and navy stations, you will visit Raleigh. The 'Swiss' region of North Carolina is one of the finest) areas in the world for the establish-) ment of a first class navy yard and, station, and I suggest that it be not overlooked. If Raleigh and that neigh-j borhood is not acceptable for ' navv; piuuon purposes they are capable of j immense developments as 'air stations' lor either hot or cold air." Mr. Daniels insinuated that there was ample supply of bo;h kinds of air at his home town and that in his capacity as a syndicate writer he could furnish either kind ad. libitum. j Mr. Denby expressed himself as very pleased with th,. former seere-j tary's visit and indicated that he would take all of Mr. Daniels' propo sitions under advisen\<mt. Mr. Daniels used to dispose of seme questions that way himself. WAXTFI) ? Good Milk Cow ^utng not losa than 3 uallons per day. o. j D.
