That Justice May Ever Have A
Champion; That Evil Shall Not
Flourish Unchallenged.
?
Entered at the post office at Warren
ton, North Carolina, under Act
of Congress of 1879.
But as for them whose heart
walketh after the heart of their
detestable things and their
abomination, I will recompense
their way upon their own
heads, saith the Lord God.?
Ezekiel 11:21.
Take it just as though it
were as it is an earnest, vital,
and important affair. Take it as
though you were born to the
task of performing a merry part
in it?as though the world had
awaited your coming. Take it
as though it were a grand opportunity
to do and achieve, to
carry forward great and good
chances to help and cheer a suf
fering, weary, it may be
heart-broken, brother. Now and
then a man stands aside from
the crowd, labors earnestly,
steadfastly, confidently, and
straightaway becomes famous
for wisdom, intellect, skill,
greatness of some sort. The
world wonders, admires, idolizes;
and it only illustrates
what others may do if they
take hold of life with a purpose.
The miracle, of the power
that elevates the few, is to be
found in their industry, application,
and perseverance under
the promptings of a brave determined
spirit.?Mark Twain.

the place of the fire. This
would take little time and
no trouble if one man had
this job delegated to him,
and it would be a service, to
those who roll from the
covers to pick up a receiver
and ask "Where's the fire?"
"Central" should know.
SPEAKING OF ROADS
In recent contracts let by
the State Highway commission,
we note that provision
was only made for resurfacing
the road from Norlina to
Warrenton. The original
understanding bv mad nffi.
cials here, after conference
with State officials, was that
the entire route?Norlina to
Liberia?would be resurfaced.
It is needed all the way,
and we hope that the commission
will come through
with the entire program.
Let us not forget either
the importance of the War-.
renton to Louisburg highway.
Mr. Hill told a delegation
at Smithfield last Summer
that this road was already
on the construction
map. This county-seat to
county-seat link should be
built as soon as possible, and
the folks of Warren would
like to see "possible" show
a little speed.
TARIFF GONE WILD
"When the Republican
protectionists ride too high,
they ride for a fall," says
The News, a ScrippsHoward
paper of Washington,
D. C., in comment upon
the bill now before the Congress.
There appears to be
no question about the fact
that the proposed bill was
conceived for the benefit of
industry under a camouflage
of "agricultural relief." We
will hear more of this later
as the bill is reviewed in the
press.
The editorial follows:
The tariff bill is a mess. It is almost
everything President Hoover <
said it must not be. The Republicans
in Congress have put

the president in a bad political hole, i
The president was elected on a :
specific pledge to limit tariff changes
to agriculture and a few industrial
schedules. This bill is a general ,
revision. It revises more than 1,000 ,
rates, less than 100 of which are ,
agricultural.
The president pledged adjustments
to equalize tariff benefits.
This bill makes practically no re- (
ductions; it is a wholesale increase. (
It will add uncalculated millions
to the living cost of the American
people in cities, towns and country. (
It will not help the farmers as
a class. What benefit to the farmer
is a 66 per cent increase in corn
tariff, when imports are less than
one per cent of consumption? Or a
100 per cent increase on dairy products,
when imports are less than
two per cent? Or a 300 per cent increase
on swine, when imports are
insignificant. ,
It will hit the common people and
hit them hard. It will boost the
prices of food? clothing and shelter.
Sugar is raised 60 per cent. Clothing,
blankets, wool are increased.
The basic building materials such
is cement, lumber, brick, are pushed
upward.
And that is not the half of it.
