CAR THIEVES ARE AT WORK
Tillman County To Get Anti-Organi-
zatlon.
NO GRAIN CARS AVAILABLE
Elevators Are Full and More Wheat to
Come.
Frederick—Tillman county's wheat
crop, marketed in Frederick bo far
this year, has reached a value of more
than $125,000 according to grain buy-
ers. Three leading grain dealers have
purchased 876 loads, averaging 60
bushels to the load, or a total of 52,-
£00 bushels.
Other smaller dealers are said to
have purchased probably enough to
run the total up to 1,000 loads.
All the elevators here are ful> aftid
no wheat is being received. The price
is holding steady at $2.20 a bushel
and shows no indication to slump on
the local market.
No relief is in sight for the freight
car situation and it is estimated by
grain that It will take a year to
dispose of the 1920 wheat crop in
Tillman county to foreign or expert
markets.
Practically 80 per cent of the wheat
this year is grading No. 1, according
to the dealers, and very little of it is
falling below No. 2. Last year, very
little wheat in the county reached the
No. 1 grade.
Indications at present are that the
acreage of wheat this fall will be
greatly increased, as the heavy rain-
fall is putting a good season in the
ground that will place it in ideal con-
dition to seed to grain.
Much cotton land will be sown to
wheat, as little preparation is needed
other than cutting the cotton stalks.
Frederick—Renewed activity among
the gangs of automobile thieves that
have been operating In Tillman county
the last several months has been ap-
parent this week, the third car of the
week having been stolen at Manitou.
Business men and officials here are
becoming aroused and the committee
appointed seceral weeks ago to form-
ulate plans for the organization of an
anti-car thief association probably will
be asked to get together and complete
the organization, it was said.
It will be remembered, officers said,
that following the story of the pro-
posed organization, there were no ears
stolen in Frederick for several weeks,
in fact the ones stolen this week are
practically the first ones to disappear
from here since that time.
Description of stolen cars are pour-
ing into the sheriff's office daily, some-
times reaching as high as ten missing
cars a day, from surrounding counties
and northern Texas.
BANK EXAMINATION HELD

WIFE SLAYER DIES IN CHAIR
(Vinita Man Protests His Innocence in
Last Statement.
McAlester.—Monroe Betterson was
legally electrocuted in the state peni-
tentiary for the murder of his wife
at Vinita, one year ago.
Betterson walked from the death
cell to the death chamber and sat
down in the electric chair without
weakening. When asked by Warden
Switzer if he had anything to say be-
fore the current was applied he said:
"Only, that I am innocent and the
state of Oklahoma is taking the life
of an innocent man."
Betterson spent the two hours prior
to his execution in the death1 cell with
Rev. J. D. Rogers, chaplain of the
prison. He made peace with his God
and asked the chaplain to read cer-
tain sections of scripture. When the
time for his execution came and a
prison guard asked him if he was
ready, he arose and walked to the
execution room with his head erect,
and without showing the slightest
emotion.

Increase is Chown In Titiman County.
Frederick.—That Tillman county
will be the only county in the Seventh
congressional district to show a gain
in population in the 1920 census, was
the statement, made here by Congress-
man McClintic, who was in the city
a short time. Every county in the
district, he said, has shown a loss in
population, but with the extension of
the Rock Island railroad from Chatta-
nooga to Grandfield, the population
of Tillman county will show material
gain.
Unofficially, the county clerk, re-
ceived a report saying the population
of the county will be slightly under
30,000.

about in the exquisite torture of his
death as they reached the ship. Hall
said they heard distinctly the labored
breathing of the sergeant as he fought
against the flames. Finally, accord-
ing to Hall, Burleson lurched forward
into the crackling fire an<T was lost to
view. Faint sounds could be heard
above the roar of the burning gaso-
line, but whether these were muffled
cries from either of the trapped men,
neither Hall nor Wyatt could say.
Grady County Has Big Potato Yield.
Chickasha.—Grady county's potato
crop this year will exceed all pre-
vious records, J. W. Owens, county
agricultural agent, declared. It is es-
timated that there are 3,000 acres of
potatoes in the county and that each
acre will produce eighty bushels,
Farmers are getting 5 cents a pound
for their potatoes, local grocerymen
report.
Storage Places To Be Taxed.
Muskogee.—Storage facilities will be
taxed in this district soon if the rail-
roads do not get cars. Bumper crops
of corn with good yields of grain have
put the farmers up against it for stor-
age space. Continued rains are mak-
ing corn crop the best ever raised
here, it is said cotton also is making
good, though some fear the rains may
hurt its development.
JOINT COMMISSION URGED
Former President of Cornell Advocates
Board '
New York. — Appointment of a
Japanese-American joint high commis-
sion by the two governments to study
the question of Japanese immigration
to this country, was advocated by Dr.
Jacob Gould Schurman, former presi-
dent of Cornell University, in an ad-
dress before council on foreign rela-
tions.
"We have not outside this hemi-
sphere any problems so difficult and
delicate as-those affecting our rela-
tions with Japan." declared Dr. Schur-
man who has just returned from an
extensive tour of the Orient in a party
with Frank A. Vanderlip, former presi-
dent of the National City Bank. "Yet
more than any other they have been
made the football of party politicians.
It is high time our national govern-
ment took them seriously in hand."
were without authority to act. Some
Indicated their willingness to f^ccept
the federal action as sufficient.
During the conference Mr. Marlett
indicated that the federal order would
If concurred in by the states, largely
remove restrictions of cotton ship-
ment from New Orleans.
The present quarantine against
shipments within a ten-mile radius of
Gretna, which affects the New Or-
leans market, would be modified so
that the quarantined area would not
extend across the Mississippi, Mr.
Marlett said. State officials generally
indicated approval of this.
J. F. Finke. representing the New
Orleans cotton exchange, told the
meeting that such modification was
necessary for a free movement of cot-
ton, which, if not granted, would dam-
age New Orleans as a cotton center.
REWARD FOR 'CZAR' HEAD
Maw Jn Siberia Claims to Be Former
Ruler.
Moscow.—The government Is offer-
ing a reward of 2,000,000 roubles for
the head of a man claiming to be
Czar Nicholas II of Russia, according
to information received here.
The advices say the claimant, who
is in Siberia, has raised a consider-
able following. In accounting for his
escape from tile hands of the bolshe-
vik!, he asserts it was a servant im-
personating the czar who was killed
it Yekaterinburg, where the czar and
tis family are understood to have
een executed.
Takes His Own Life After Having
Been a Hero on the
Battlefilds.
' Berlin—Prince Joachim of Hohen-
zollern, youngest son of former Em-
peror William, committed suicide in
Potsdam.
Joachim is believed to have been in
financial straits. He recently was di-
vorced.
Later advices say Prince Joachim
shot himself while in his residence,
the Villa Leignitz, Potsdam. He was
removed to St. Joseph's hospital
where he died a few hours later.
Joachim recently had been suffer-
ing from great, mental depression.
The only member of the former im-
perial family in Potsdam is Eitol
Frederick, the former emperor's sec-
ond son.
Prince Eitel, questioned op the mo-
tive for his brother's suicide, declined
to make any statement, referring the
correspondent to the official announce-
ment that Joachim was suffering from
"a fit of excessive dementia."
The body was transferred to Pots-
dam chapel. Prince Joachim was the
least talented of |(he emperor's sons.
He held the rank of captain. He
leaves one son.
The whereabouts of Prince Adel-
bert, Prince August William and
Prince Oscar are unknown. The for-
mer crown princess is reported stay-
ing on Rugin Island.
Prince Joachim was born December
17, 1890, in Berlin. Ijie served in the
late war on both the western and east-
ern fronts. In the first year of the
war he was wounded in the fighting in
Franfce, and for a long time it was
feared he would not recover. When
he did recover he was transferred to
the Russian front where he had sev-
eral narrow escapes from capture and
afterwards a serious illness.
After the defeat of the Germans
there were rumors that Emperior Wil-
liam would abdicate in favor of
Joachim.
Joachim was married in 1916 to
Princess Marie Augustine of Anhalt
who then was just seventeen years
old. A dispatch from Paris early in
the present year said Joachim had
brought a suit for divorce.
The prince during the war was
ranked as a popular hero in Germany.
Since the end of the war little has
been heard of him. One report was
to the effect that he hoped to come
to the United States after the peace
treaty was signed.

Thirham, N. C.—Jim Ray, 40, of
Graham was killed; Wellie Phillips of
Graham, seriously injured and Clem
Bradshaw of Haw River, slightly
wounded when a masked mob attempt-
ed to storm the Alamance county jail,
where three negroes charged with at-
tack on a white woman are held, ac-
cording to a statement made by Cap-
tain Marion B. Fowler, commanding
the Durham machine gun company
guarding the jail.
"Absolutely false," Captain Fowler
said in connection with the report
that no reason could be assigned for
the shooting. "The masked mob,"
Captain Fowler said, "fired the first
shots. The machine gunners returned
the fire with machine guns and other
arms.
"The man killed and the two men
injured were not members of the
mob," Captain Fowler said.
Reports from Graham state that
nobody seems to know just why the
gunners opened fire and denial is
made that there was any concerted
attempt to storm the jail, around
which crowds' gathered, when blood-
hounds trailed from the home of the
woman attacked to a servant's house
at Rainey hospital nearby and the
three negroes were found in bed to-
gether, arrested and placed in jail.
Citizens pursuaded the crowds not
to attack the jail, until a machine gun,
company arrived from Durham at or-
ders of Governor T. W. Blckett, who
instructed them to shoot and shoot
straight if the necessity arose.
Crowds stayed around the jail until
nearly daylight and then dispersed
and the day passed very quietly, the
officials stated, expecting no further
trouble. With the street lights out,
a crowd appeared to have gathered
near the jail, and for some reason,
not yet clear, fire was opened by the
machine gunners.
After the shooting, all the soldier*
were withdrawn with their guns from
outside the building and are now on
guard within the prison. Reports late
state that the crowds are rapidly di-
minishing and officials declared they
expected no further trouble. They
have not yet asserted, it is said, which
of the three men held, is the man
wanted or that anyone of them is
guilty but it is said that there is rea-
son to believe that one of the trio ia
the criminal.
Adjutant General Metts informed of
the situation in Graham, made ar-
rangements to proceed to Graham on
a special engine of the Southern rail-
way, and ordered more troops to the
scene.

PROTEST SUFFRAGE VOTE
Vermont Ballot's Validity Likely T
Be Attacked.
Burlington, Vt—If the suffrage
amendment is not soon ratified by the
necessary thirty-sixth state, Vermont
suffragists will appeal to the United
States supreme court to declare ille-
gal Governor Clements' veto of the
presidential suffrage bill passed by the
Vermont legislature last year. This
was announced in a statement issued
at suffrage state headquarters here
where it is said that local leaders are
working with the approval of Mrs.
Carrie Chapman Catt, national leader
of the suffrage movement. The state-
ment says "that the validity of the
entire vote cast in Vermont for presi-
dent" may rest on the ruling of the
supreme court.
