DAN TOMPKINS, Fditor The most dangerous kind of unem ployment i > the unemployed mind. 3ast is east and West is west, and wi trust tl at "never the twain" shal. meet under present circumstances. Those pnrticles in the air that the astronomers say are cosmic dust may just be the fur flying, from various to ners of the earth. With her crowded population, Ja in's real objective is Morechow; ana _h_' does not care how many Chines vh^ has to kill in order to get it. Prices o:i many commodities have been going upward without any ap prmt reason. President Roosevelt his ordered the Department of Jus tice to isiw stigate. Among those whe i\i nmociiti >s is newsprint. The paper ex on which newspapers are printed. No unusual demand. No unusua si- ireity, yet newsprint lias been go in i up in price for months. Just all ot ler crowd trying to gouge the con sumer, because they can. The prej:s writers are speculating w xy Mr. Justice Black deelintcl to la te part i:i the Supreme Court's con sideration of the Scottsboro case, ihis i j mere icile speculation that is ui. profitable and perhaps dangerous. 'iV tr.ith is apparent. Mr. Justice Black, being from Alabama, where the ea.re (?liginated, the defendant being a Ker hro, and the Justice having once been a .tlucker. he used good :ense and lot In? rest of the Court decide the ques tion. Thij" discloses that he has judi cial temp, rament. Tuttle Moved From Sylva The membership of the Sylva Meth od ist church and the people generally me surprised that Rev. Mark Q. Tut tle was moved to Charlotte after hav i[ j servec! but one year here. Per il. ps Mr. Tuttle was as much sur piiscd as anyone. Presiding elders and bishops, we aie persuaded, should at least con sult the people the people who make up the church, who support it with thcir means, and keep it going as an 01 ionization, before making radical ai d unexpected changed. The Re". Mr. Ratledge, who suc ct ads Mr. Tuitle is no doubt an excel lent man and a good peracher Wo don't know about that, and this edi torial is not intended in the least to reflect upen him; but we are speaking of the prirciple of moving a preacher after one year's service, without con si Iting the people who are affected. ISOLATING WAR It may prove to be comparatively er sy to isolate war. In fact the coun ti.cs of Great Britain and France f cem, at present, to be making con si lerable headway in that direction, :u*d the danger of v/ar spreading in Eirope from the Spanish conflagru Ui>n seem to be diminishing. It is c; sy for the Congre?j of the United S ates to Liass neutrality acts, and to avrfnv the purpose of keeping this tt untry cloar of European and Asiatic c( nflicts. It may prove to be com paratively easy for this country, for tt e once to keep its skirts clear of lie Sino-.fapanese troubles. i But, when it comej to trying to set u/> a quarantine against the effects of I wars, we are up against the impossl- 1 b e, Everything of the kind reflects itself in the business and industrial 11 'e of this country. It affects every b isinees, every enterprise, every la borer, every farmer. There is no way to avoid this. A prolonged foreign var, especially if our neutrality act .should be declared effective, would affect business in this country like a creeping paralysis, until we would be it\ a polni of stagnation. Eve nnow, v 1th Chi la and Japan as the chief buyers of our cotton, the conflict rag ing in tha Orient has sent the price of the South'* staple downward. Another thing the impossible to iso late is the danger of disease spreading Co this coantry. The Spanish infleun za, that came out of the war zone in Europe nineteen years ago, crossed t ie Atlantic, and spread through America like a forest flre, taking > eavy toll from young and old among ti\e military and civil population of this country. The danger of some ?uch pestilence coming to this coun try from Asia, under present war con ditions, 1b ever present and as the war continues it becomes more serious. ? This Is too small a world for us to think that what affects the rest of the ; -world will not affect us. "No man ? Uveth unto himself alone." And yet the majority of the American people, ^ we are persuaded, are of the opinion ? that the events In other parts of the Svtorid sto M 01 our conbern, Mr. Stockbridge, repeating the philosophy of Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, in last week's Jour nal, drove home a great truth: I believe there ore still a large number of people who hold f:ie s''rue view of war that Theodore rloosevelt did. He once said that he was for peoco. but for rightcoasi.es.; first. There are circumstances under which nations have to choose between peace and righteousness. In late year.; ,-r.any ">eace advocates have been creschmg the doctrine that, this coun ?,.y Was dragged into the World War by international bankers for the sake the money they coulci make out or ,t. That, to my mind, is perfectly illy. V.'e went into the World War .o keep the Kaiser and hi:; ambitious >.dviseis from dominating the world. If America had not entered the war when we (.id, England and Frrnce would have become subject nations. ;nd wo would have a Kai.'.cr-con rollod government in C: nada, threat :ning -i--; on an unguarded frontier >,000 nilc-s l'jng.

BALSAM (By .Mrs. D. T. Knight) (Continued From Pajre 1) party of tourists had come from Jack sonville, Fla., to spend the week-end. Some of the party had never seen any snow, and all looked on in wonder r.t the beautiful scenery.
