Ma Editor: "J "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; thatlhey are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable' rights r that among these are life, liber ty and the pursuit of happiness." These words as quoted were ta ken from the Declaration of In dependendce, and I believe with all Jny heart and soul, that the a bove declarations have been a bused and trampled upon more than any other part of which we hold sacred. "That all men are bofcn equal." ! If that be so, we want some of the peers to tell us why the law, as written upon the statutes ctf North Carolina and the United States compels, by force, the youths of our land to work upon public. roads! Then I want to know why the Roman Law reigns supreme upon our statute books, if . we have certain inalienable rights, and among these Liber ty. If that be true, the liberty is taken away from the under dog and the law-makers ' are ru ling with a rod of iron. Where does the pursuit of happiness come in to the under dog who must toil in the ditch, wade up to his shoe tops, stand in the scorching sun and itt the cold waves und gales to appease the higher ups, and not receive a pen ny for his labor, and working a gainst his will. This should not prevail in the "Land of the free j and the land of the brave." The Roman Empire, undqr Ju-, lius Caesar, came to naught by autocracy, and the spirit of righ teous men still live, and if the law-makers do not show more mercy and justice to the coming generation' will say that "The memory of the wicked shall rot" and that will be the slogan left to posterity by them. Blaine Coffey need not look to the under-dogs any more for his support If he does,' he will get to stay at home, where he should have been, instead of being down at Raleigh pasting a law against pool tables in Watauga county. We have got her number, and we intend to remember her. again when he passes on his political march in this end of the county. Slavery and Bondage were pass ed up by Mr. Coffey, but when it came to other minor projects hi gave it a lift, but the Public Road Labor question just vanish e 1 from his mind until the elev enth hour. But the Bible tells is that those who cam in at the eleventh hour received as much as those who came in On the v. -.'
