Now if a few more anarchists can be sent after him all well and good. 1 Lay aside a few dollars for the coming Victory Loan. Uncle Sam is in need of a few billions, and his loy al citizens must provide it. - When a. platform strong, enough to Hold both Woodrow Wilson and Wil liam Howard Taft at the same time is erected, there is no mistaking the fact that it is a strong one. We breathe easier. It has been as certained 'that Guilford county is the Carolina. We , thought from the number of stills destroyed in it that it must be Polk. It is estimated that between nine and ten millions of dollars will be spent on roads in North Carolina dur ing this year. We thought the other day that it would take, half that amount to put the road between Try on and Columbus in good shape. Liquors were served in Essex coun ty, N. J., and charged as freight. That may do all right in Jersey, but if it had been Polk county moonshine they never would have called it "freight." It is. more like double geared lightning, than freight. Congress and the North Carolina legislature have adjourned, Woodrow Wilson has returned to Europe. Now if some plan could be devised to get rid of politicalmaster general Bur leson we believe even the ground hog would repent and give us better weather. The New York- Journal says "it may seem ridiculous to predict that the time will come when the intelli gent man's interest will be nearly all outside of the earth on which he lives." Oh, we don't know. It seems to us that if the activities of the Standard Oil Company and the meat trust are not curbed that they will have everything worth owning on this earth, and if the rest -of us are to have any interest it will most assur edly be outside of this earth. ; Whenever a man rises above his Tpartywhen it comes to a matter of right and equity, he is a man worthy of the respect of his neighbors. Hen derson county has such a man' in the Hon. E. W. Ewbank, chairman of the county Democratic executive commit tee. - If we had a few more men who J -w. J. 1. V7 Y , OlllOXX political views when a matter of great concern to their country was an issue as did chis gentleman, then in deed would we be better for it. Mr. Ewbank is a straight: consistent Democrat, but he deems the welfare U his cornty or more north th&n the irnere holding of a few petty offices by - uic vxi ,y vj. ma puuucai iaun. "Fried chicken, ice cream, hot rolls, I heard this and so stopped to inquire, but unfortunately these, good things were not at hand. ' It 'was a meeting off the committee - planning for the great State Supper to be held, at the Lanier Club rooms, -Wednesday, Mar. 19th, at 6:45, to raise funds, for "the relief in the near East. Each state of the Union having a representative in Tryon will be heard from at tnis banquet; not by dry speeches, but. by every form of interesting entertain ment known in this versatile little town. I was told that the supper menu is too varied to mention: I surely will be there. Won't you? Supper and whole entertainment only one dollar. ' LEGISLATURE HAS ADJOURNED The North Carolina Legislature ad journed last Tuesday. Over 1,300 measures of different kinds were passed. Among those affecting Polk county in particular was the bill in troduced byvSenator E. B. Cloud au thorizinz the county commissioners to issue bonds to the amount of $16,000 to build a county home. This was amended in the House by Representa tive Swann so that the proposition will be first submitted to a vote of the people of the county. If the proposition receives a majority then the county commissioners are empow ered to issue the bonds. The matter can only be referred to a vote by a petition containing, 25 per cent, of the legal voters of the county. The county road law was also amended in the house whereby ' noth ing can be done that will in any man ner interfere with the plans for the Tryon-Saluda highway and the ' re surfacing of the Tryon-Lynn high way. The bill introduced by Senator Cloud to revise the jury list, provid ing that at any regular or special ses sion of the county commissioners dur ing the month of March or April, was defeated. Also the proposition to repeal the act providing for a court stenographer, the act of Mr. Swann of two years ago, which saved consid erable money to the county, failed to pass.
