M.! Burras, in Monday's I. iws and Obser-j , ver .entitled, "Whither Are We Drift ; ing." We admit we ale not capable of looking through the thought ex pressed by the article. We are" una-' ble to keep up with the Dr. Jekyll I and Mr. Hyyde in the article. No, ■ -Hughsey, we cannot tell whither you are cohl or hot nftr can we tell "whi | th?r" you are comhig or going. You I • admit, some things we know are so, you prophesy some things that we are I: ure are not so. Wi admit we are jnt a doctor, anl dont claim to be .Jile to diagnose your ease. We be ! 1 however,' from the symptoms jou suffering frem a chronic case 01 i>olitical bellyache You talk very "wisely" about taxes, roads, boat lines; alao democratic bonds and radical bonds, and you also know enough about human nature to appeal to the partisan. But if you are going to curse taxes, then don't praise roads they build. Don't curse taxes and praise the schools they built and dont curse taxes and praise the , improvements they are making possi ' ble. Just be man enough to curse them and hush or generous enough to praise the benefits anl blessings that" we are deriving from tiiem and also' praise the' government that give" j them. You only have to look at the great educational institutions that' have been made possible and put in the reach of our own childrer We of middle ages were well-grown be | i. re the state ever spent a cent for \ the higher schooling that our daugh t s are receiving, with tuition free. Again in your tirade against the money powers in North Carolina and in your appeal to those wtfom you must think oaa not understand take in your "poligcal Greek," you are only voicing the Mgtiment and wishes of the grmteit HntmcTu powers in I North Carolina, the railroads. And I if you have not already been, you will sodb be visited by o selected commit tee who will pat you on the back and say, "Well done, good and faithful servant," and say step into the plush seated car. And may we avk you how you got so much imiMtrtaiit information about j the cOst of boats, the kinds of boat and the water ways, etc. You must j have figure! in Gardner's creeks in your cost of establishment of the ! steamboat lines on the waters of NoVth Carolina, but you must remem- 1 ber that the I nited States is spend ing millions on the water ways of our state anl they have been greatly im proved and somebody should use them. Would you have the big shipping com panies and the railroads or the people enjoy them ? If your predictions had been in son>{ or poetry, no doubt they would have wet more eyes with democratic tear-. In one statenicnt of your strong at tide you state that you were order ed to lie. Why did you not resist !t more strongly? It was certainly nn unfair thing for them to do anl you should expose them publicly. Reveal their names. You also mention the "rawest deal." The public mu t; not think that it was a raw deal as they sent a great ma 1 jority of the legislators back tot che legislature this year. If our diagno sis is correct, you must have had a night mare. Condng down to the real facts yrt the case, we must admit that we see no superlative democracy in your ar" ' gument, nor do we see any dry 1 or tombstones in the pathway you are so solemnly Wrrning us against. ANOTHER WiIISKEY STILL WAS CAPTURED TODAY Tuesday morning Sheriff Roberson answered a call to the RobersonWe section and in company with Officer ' C.

The governor's plan looking to the creation of a system of water traris portation in North Carolina as the one I available means of affording relief to our people from the high and dis criminatory rail freight rates, after receiving an unanimously favorable ' report from the senate special com mittee to which it was referred, has been turned over to the senate com mittee on appropriations and there are suggestions that the committee make certain changes in the provision of the measure. It is understood that Senator Giles, a new man from Mc- Dowell county, "is opposed to the governor's bill." The statement ts made by a Raleigh newspaper. But even if true, that does not mean that j STILL IS CAPTURED , .IN CROSS ROADS '' . • ! Sheriff Roberson and Revenue Of ficer E. R. Jackson went out into the Cross Roads section Mondav and found . a still but it was not running. They j destroyed about ten barrels of beer J and several other things thereabout,' ' and a mile away they found another batch of seven barrels of beer, but no still. | The beer was on the land of Dud I ley Edwards, a negro, but no conclu- j sive evidence could be gotten against I him. The reason that the officers were I called to this section wa sthat they had information that the schools, the 1 churches, homes and in fact, the whole ' neighborhood were all being ridned by the rum making and drinking.
