Wllllamston, N. C.
Friday. April 25. 1913
The revision of the tariff has
sunk into insignificance compared
to the weightier matter of "who's
who" in base ball circles.
Hearst's criticism of President
Wilson might be expected from
a man who a few years ago tried
to disrupt his party, —the party
that elected Woodrow Wilson to
the highest office in the land.
The Sunday News & Observer
was a splendid good roads edition.
It would be a good advocate for
votes in the townships which will
decide for better highways on May
sth. and 15th.
The meeting of the D. A. R. at
Washington was quite as prolong
ed aa the Baltimore Convention,
when the safety of a nation was at
stake. Some womentin politics
would spend the summer ballot
ing. A dressmaker's establish
ment and a millinery
would have to Lie annexed to (he
convention hall, because fashions
would be changing in the mean
time.
The hookworm is a little cuss
less than half an inch long and
about as thick as No. sewing
cotton. He was brought here
from Africa, along vtfith the
dark it"'. —The—darkies have —as-
sociated with hookworms so many
thousands of years that they—
the darkies, are immune against
the misery that the hookworms
cause among the whites.
Good Roads
Williams Township will vote on
good roods on the 15th. oi May,
ten days later than the election
of the other three townships.
The people of that township are
eager to vote for improvements,
and, no doubt the election will be
carried for-progress. There has
been much improvement in the
section within the past few years,
as the timber interest is being
developed. Farming has improv
ed, too, as can be seen in passing
through it. Good roads are much
needed as in other sections, and
the people realize how great will
be the benefit. The leaders in
the movement are earnestly wag
ing the campaign and look for
success.
North Carolina Mills
During every political campaign
claims are made that certain
candidates can do more for the
people. This may be true so far
as the personal ideas of the res
pective candidates go, but so often
followers of men invest them with
powers which they do not nor
ever can posess. A large major
ity of the public thinks a man i 3
-great only as he can serve their
own personal desires in business
and otherwise. Voters never
reckon with the fact that a special
favorite of theirs does not carry
legislation in his pocket. That he
is one among many who have the
power and i.luence to help shape
the affairs of State and Nation.
The cotton mill men of North
Carolina are making threats al
ready against those Congressmen
who are redeeming their pledges
to the party by reducing the tariff.
The reduction in cotton fabrics
will not materially effect the mills
of the State, but the mill men see
great harm if the schedule is re-
The party has won on
tariff reform, and a.failure to
redeem the pledges will put the
party out of power at the end of
four years.
No man is greater than his
party, and the campaign was
fought to break clown the great
wall of protection which the Re
publicon party had erected.
People fool teemselves when they
raise a great howl about their
especial interests being taken care
of by certain politicans. The
Democratic party has made North
Carolina prosperous and safe—it
will continue to serve the people
in a larger way for years to come.
If men are the salt of the eartli,
women are undoubtedly the
sugar. Salt is necessary—sugar
is a luxury. Vicious men are
salt-Peter! stern men are rock
salt; nice men are table salt.
Old maids are brown sugar;
good natured matrons are loaf
sugar, and pretty girls -are pul
verized sugar. Please pass the
pulverised sugar. —Farmville
Enterprise.
