JACKSON COUNTY JOURNAL Published Weekly By The } JACKSON COUNTY' JOURNAL CO. Entered as second class mutter nt the Post Office at fcjylvu, N. C. DAN TOMPKINS, Editor CHARLES LEE INGRAM --Tho Journal joins with the people of Macon county in mourning tho passiug of Charles L. Ingram, dis languished citizen of our neighbor eouuty. Tito trugis circumstances con netted with tho passiug of Mr. In gram but accentuate tho lobs to Mu con county and Western North Caro lina of so excellent a man. For many years Mr. Ingram had been a uueiJul public servant. \As postmastur, as sheriff of the county, and iu his latest capacity as rep resentative in the General Assembly, he sorved bis peoplo conscientiously and well. Tho writer knew him best as a member of tho House, having sat by his side in that chamber through four and a half months of tho moat trying sessions of recent history of the North Carolina legislature. No county in the State hnd a more fearless, honest or courageous repre sentative than was Charlie Ingram. He was davoted to his duty and to the interests of the farmers and the laboring people of North Carolina. Tho expression; "the commonality of the people" waR frequently on his lips; and the weal of the people who mako thior bread in tho sweat of their faces was ever uppermost in his "thoughts. It was their welfare that dictated every uttorance that he made and every vote that ho east, Charlie Ingram was true as steel true to his people who had elected him, true to his convictions; and onco he had made up his mind as to what policy would best serve his beloved folks, no power on earth could swerve hinv from his course. The writer feels a keen personal loss in tho tragic death of Sheriff Ingram. No one can ho closely as sociated with a man of tho type of Macon's representative for a period of weeks, without learning to love ?nd ndnifrr* him. SCHOOLS There has boon much potbor throughout North Carolina, ever since the convening of the General Assem bly, in January, over the publio school system of tho State. There was a largo school of thought in the State that believed that it would be necessary to curtail the aehool term to four months, or to dis- 1 continue them altogether during the present biennium. Another largo fac tion, backed by the North Carolina Education Association, insisted that salaries and other appropriations should be kept at their: then present level. Between these two was a middle course, backed by a common sense that saw tho condition in which the people of North Carolina found themselves, dne to tho general de pressed conditions in the business world, and, at the same time saw tho titter wreckage that would result to the acbool system of the State, so laboriously buildcd hrongh a period of many years, should a vacation of two years be declared, or should the term be out to four months. This latbor school of thought final ly prevailed, in a largo measure, in the General Assembly. Its adhearents believed in seising the opportunity to establish a State system of public schools, granting equal educational advantages to tho children of North Carolina, and spreading the costs of operation over the entire State. This saved the schools in many counties. It provided better schools in many other counties than would have been possible under any other plan. The me who took this view will prove, in the end, to have boen the real friends of the schools, the real friends of the children, the real friends of the school teachers, and the true friends of the tax-payers of the State. They reduced the appropriations and the tax levies for schools, and, at the same time, made provision that in sures a school for' every child, and a salary, perhaps reduced, but still a salary that will bo paid, for every teacher. Either for the other courses would have resulted in inevitable dis aster to the school system of North Carolina. With a foundation laid for a real State-wide, State-supported school system, North Carolina can build thereon n system of public education that will W worthy of the State, without overburdening the taxpayers in any connty or any district. On the other band, the burden upon the taxpayers has been materially light ened, and the State has appropriated all that the people eonld afford to pay for school purposes, under pres ent conditions.
