f ORD PLANT AT (JHAULOTT&
. DEOIXS ACTIVE WORK.
That was great news coming out of
Charlotte last Monday, when it was
announced that the Ford plant had
started up, with 900 men at work. It
' means about ?5,000 a da> to the
working people of that commounity,
who, !!! short order will turn it over
tu h merchants in the several lines.
When working mcu can be put to
w.>rk. it means prosperity. The
woriirng group and the farmers of
th United States are this country's
K customers. Ninety per cent of
? farm and factory products are
by people of this country. It'
;'Ls everywhere could start up,
v jing cht working people, enabl
- 1 t!v.m to buy from the merchant
a:W th'? farmer, business would soon
le creatv-J and customers found for
? the products of farm and factory.
t, ,;>rce of 000 men in the
F .(! plant will work
;v tvlers for the Queen City and tho
i irmers of Mecklenburg county.

!a ?; nkin;; '>!' Made-in-Carolina
-.ateriais, people in this section
, a rally think of the Champion
t\ o mpany at Canton. While the
c : t i this section have always
I:: 1: ;h cegaird for that big institu
te ?: full appreciation of its great
u : ; u was not had. however, until
the past few years. While factories
of every di cription were at first
cut tailing, then ceasing activities
altogether, the big plant of the
Champion Fibre company k r>- going
( : a the i.'Y< .i tenor ol its way, 24
hours a day.
N'.it o^.y has the plant been run
ning full time, hut announcement is
made that it has just now completed
an addition to the institution costing
upwards of a million and a half dol
lar:. Its main product ? paper ? is
shipped into every mart of the world,
and its local operations reach far
back into the mountains, even into
the heads of ihe coves, where numer
ous men are making their living by
cutting timbers for the big concern.
It.-, regular force in Canton, being
made up almost entirely of native
citizens, consists of men who are ac
tive in ?.h( civic, fraternal and relig
ious life of Western North Carolina.
All Western North Carolina is
proud "f Canton, as is evidenced by
the manner of s|>eech employed when
a citi7.cn is telling of the progress of
tr.i. section. There is in such telling
a pardonable spirit of boastful pride
as patriotic citizens of this section
tell strangers and visitors of the
bigness of the Champion Fibre com
pany and its force of fine employes
and officials.
LI CKE RITE'S DONATING TO
FUXDS OF CANDIDATES
The secret is out. The Association
Against the 18th Amendment admits
having sent money into North Caro
lina to help Robert R. Reynolds in
his campaign for nomination on the
Democratic ticket for the United
States Senate. George DePriest, o?
Shelby, is quoted as having said that
the liquor interests of New Jersey
are backing his campaign for nomi
nation on the Republican ticket for
the same office.
In the Reynolds case, dispatches
from Washington are to the effect
he anti-prohibitionists have it
in Wt Senator Cameron Morrison,
because he is a bone-dry, hence they
are helping to nominate Reynolds,
because Reynolds stands for repeal of
the ISth Amendment.
In the DePriest case, it Is some
what similar, providing DePriest is
telling the truth. Hon. Jake F.
Newell, o? Charlotte, leadirg dry,
was nominated at the Republican
convention fur that party's candidate
for the United States Senate. De
Priest was not even at the conven
tion, but injects himself into *!ie
contest by tiling his entrance in the
June primary, necessitating all of
N'ewell's friends now going to the :
primary and casting their vote for ;
him again. IX' Priest is quoted as say-:
ing that the licker interests now;
backing him have promised to spend :
a million dollars on his election, inj
event he is nominated by the Re- 1
publicans. Of course, there arc few j
peoj\.' .y/hn b-Ii'-ve this fantastic .
story that the wets would spend a
cool million for election of DePriest.
He would not be worth a tenth of that
amount to any movement on the face
of the earth.
Many people have long; been im
pressed with the belief ttiat the wetj
organizations of national import are,
contributing to the campaign funds j
of announced wet candidates. These !
j statements coming from actual head
j quarters verify the truth of these j
; things. The liquor interests are be- ;
I hind the whole movement for repeal |
] of prohibition laws >it is now general- ;
! ly understood, and are working in
' and through both political parties. I
j BROTHER DAN TOMPKINS
FOR THE LEGISLATURE
Newspaper people throughout the
statu are tossing their hats into the
political ring in larger numbers than,
ever before noted here. The latest 1
scribe to enter the conflict is Brother
l>:tii Tompkins, editor of that up-to-i
date paper known far and wide as,
Th;' Jackson County {Journal. Mr.
Tompkins has announced for nomi
nation in the Democratic primary. |
Time brings changes in men and
things. Two years ago Brother
'! > .npkiiw expressed a desire to know
in in the eternal a newspaper man
col ? !c! afford to run for office. Now
he is in the swim neck deep, -^..u!
for the sake of the fraternity thut
Mr. Tompkins is not to be pitted
against a certain lady of his good

,'iCKtsTS TO COMMUNITY.
Tf we are wise in our day, we will
leave nothing undone in an effort to
r : ? ? ... summer people to Brevard. It
. . . . our only opportunity of ob
taining any ready money. Conditions
in manufacturing, business and
nuance are such that our ony hope of
?net-easing the money crop hen is to
bring tourists into Brevard and
I. ansylvania county. Boarding
hi uses, hotels, people with houses and
apartments for rent, merchants, auto
places, fanners, dairymen, all should
be vitally interested in this summer
tourist business.
i Some of our industrial plants are
: closed down, while others are curtail
ing at alarming rate. Work in the
woods is off. Farmers are finding at
present but poor market for their
i products.- Liquidation of bank debts,
I payment of taxes and assessment. ,
mortgage loans and other things,
present an alarming picture in tho
amount of money beinu sent out oL'
the county each and every month. The
county and the (town governments
are facing most difficult situations in
the public phase of our community
life.
We ought to take in at least one
; hundred thousand dollars in new
money from the summer people. We
? can take in that much, if we will all
work together. Each and every citi
zen (of the community who knows
some one away from here should take
the time, immediately to write such
person or persons, and invite them
and their friends to come to Brevard
: for the summer season.
Each one added to others coming
here will count in the sum total of
business to be done here. It is YOUR
business, just as much as it is any
one's else, so let us all work together
to bring just as many people to this
: community for the summer season as
? can be induced to come here.
