Charlie VHARLIE Ingram will be sorely. missed: His sud- den death came as a shock to the entire county and to hundreds of his friends elsewhere. Few men have had the privilege.' of enjoying- the wide popular ity and high esteem that were his. Possessed of sim ple dignity and natural friendliness, he inspired con fidence and friendship. The secret of his esteem was a sincere interest in his fellowmeii, especially in those less fortunate "than himself. v Mr; Ingram served his county in various positions of public trust five years as-postmaster, three terms as sheriff and one as representative in theGeneral Assembly, which office-he-held at-the-time of his death. Such a record speaks for itself; what we could add would be mere surplusage of words. It seems to us, hovveverf that Mr. Ingram's finest self was manifested, not in his political career, esti mable though it was ; but, rather, in his private life. He lived and died in one community, on the same farm where he was born. Even a stranger visiting in that community can see the fine effects of his in fluence. He was its guardian arid guide. The Rabbit and Cat Creek sections will not be the same without him. With the pioneering instinct in his blood, a natural inclination to build and improve, he wrought from a rough mountain farm one of the finest agri cultural units in the county and builded for his fam ily a beautiful, comfortable home, surrounding it all with a wholesome atmosphere. Progressive in agri culture, he set the pace for other farmers. Residents irr:therommnnity-will tell you that he was a perfect neighbor, always ready to lend a helping hand in time of need, sorrow- or-sickness, anil al ways, interested in their simple everyday doings Such was Charlie Iugram- mountain manhood. Don't Fail v NEW- regist ratlon - hai election to be held Tuesdav, July 11, on the pro posal to sell the municipal power system to the Nan tahala Power and Light Company. The reason for. calling the new registration was that the voting will be "against the books;" that is, a majority of the registered voters is required to car ry the election, rather than a majority of those cast ing ballots, as in general elections. It is needless to point out the importance of this election ; nearly every resident knows full well what hinges upon it. But people are naturally prone to zr. procrastina tepand a reminder t wregi st erwi 11 mot be amiss. " T -r John W. Edwards, who has been- appointed regis trar, will be in the town hall above the Bank of Franklin each Saturday until, and including, July 1, from 9 a. m. till 5 p. m., to accept new registrations. It would be wise to see him next Saturday ; if you 'delay, something might happen, to prevent you from registering later. It is trite but true advice: DO IT NOW. If you register and then find you will be unable to attend the election, ask for an absentee ballot. If you wish to vote for. sale of the power, plant, but fail to go to ihe polls,, you will every failure to vote will vote. To Rev. It is with regret that Franklin learns of the super annuation of the Rev. O. P. Ader, pastor of the Methodist church. Although he has lived here less than two years, he has made his impress on the community and his absence will be-sorely-felt,- His preaching was effective because it carried the force of h onest con victi o n , and h is teaching bore i n- . fluence because of the fine example he set in his own life, marked by that sweet serenity of spirit that comes only through dedication to high calling. , .." A man of the cloth', and worthy of it yet he never committed the fallacy of setting hjmself above and apart from the common crowd. He was easy to approach, as a shepherd of men should be, and ever ready to give sympathetic understanding and helpful encouragement. We. sincerely hope his health will show such marked improvement that he again will be able to en ter the active ministry. ,.

Roosevelt's power to reorganize . the federal government continues to be the subject of much discussion in Washington, along t'ith much surmising about what he intends to do. '-.'.. At the present- lime the Presi dent enjoys much greater power than any of his predecessors. In fact, none of them except Wilson, war president, ever had any powet of that sort. Other presidents have asked for such power, but invariably congress has insisted upon doing the job it self. And opposition to the elim ination of patronage has always prevented action. . Taft often and strongly advocated greater efficiency in government service. . He appointed a 'cumin is sion on economy and efficiency, but congress ignored its recominenda tknis, and. finally killed it by with holding its appropriation. Wilson had some slight powers of this sort, but only for the bet ter prosecution, of the war. In 1920 congress set up a commit tee on reorganization. Four years later some of its recommendations were embodied in a bill. But no action was ever . taken on it, al though Coolidge urged its passage Hoover, several times urged ex tensive reorganization, and when during the depression the country became insistent,, congress : finally authorized him to undertake the job. : . . . . A strong string was tied to his authority, however, and when Horn1 cr promulgated his reorganization order, congress promptly vctoul it ( -Under "the law by 'which- Presi dent Roosevelt receives his present power to reorganize government, congressional consent is hot : re quired.. .

JEFFERSON AND "THE LAW" Again we quote from the Ency rlopaedia Brittanisa's biography of Thomas Jefferson: "To his legal scholarship and col lecting zeal Virginia owed the pres ervation, of a large part of. her j early statutes. He seems to have i lacked interest, in litiuiou.sne.ss. which was extraordinarily develop ed in -Colonial' Virginia; and he saw and wished to reform the law's abuses. It is probable that he turned, 'therefore',, the more willing ly to politics; at any rate Soon after, entering public life he aban doned practice. (1774)." He was then 31 years old. Whatj would be . Thomas Jeffer son's opinion of the "litigiousness'' of this day? What would he think of the cor poration lawyers and the damage suit lawyers? The public supports thern air of them. What Would be his judgment about the presence in congress andj in every state , legislature - of great numbers of practicing lawyers ? Would he believe that the exist ing system of American law, with its - tens -of -thotisands-of -statute's, is designed to suppress "litigious ness" and' to correct "the law's abuses?" '.' Would he be convinced that the preponderant influence of members of the bar, practitioners, in the American- congress and in all the American -state -legislatures a hun dred and thirty-three years has simplified the laws, increased . the security of property and the safetv of life? We wonder. THE CHARLESTON NEWS AND CURIER. LEGAL ADVERTISING This. 29th day of May, 1933. R. M. LAMBERT, Administrator.
