If Jn THE NEWS' HARNETT G EWS o ROSS MAKES REPLY TOEDGERTON'S QUESTIONNAIRE Lillington, August 31, 1921, Editor Harnett County News: --... . ' ' In last week s issue of your paper you announced that on the third Sunday in September the Reverend Sidney A. Edgerton would preach a special sermon in the Baptist church in Lillington upon some subject re lating to county politics. The en clQr correspondence may be of pub lie iglpt in tnis connection. I to be involved in the pub lic prints with anyone, and especial ly a minister ot the Gospel; but when one's private and " official action is made the subject of discussion from behind the pulpit, a mere layman is necessarily driven to the press for defense.. When I mailed my reply to Mr. Edgerton last Saturday, T ad vised him that if I heard nothing to t he contrary from him before today, I would presume that it was still his intention to pursue thi matter through the pulpit, and that. I would seek redress through the press. He has now had my letter for several days, but has indicated no desire to change his course. Being denied ac cess to the forum which he has cho sen, I therefore turn to" the press, and abide with confidence the judg ment of the public. Sincerely yours, " , CHAS. ROSS. - Buies Creek, Aug. 23, 1921. Mr. Chas. Ross, Lillington, N. C. -Dear Sir: The writer is seeking some light looking toward a 3ermon! for the Lillington people -on "Public Morals and Corrupt Politics" and will greatly appreciate it if you will answer and return enclosed sheet questions. I am fully aware that your reply will be a matter of simple accommodation and that-you are not rt'vuired as county attorney to ans wer either official or private matters for a private citizen when he atks, not as a taxpayer but as a r.:inister of the Gospel. I :mi trusting, however, that you arc one of those who believes with me that a preacher should be inter tsteu in every social alia political activity and should be bold to speak his convictions against sin whether it strikes friend or foe when it is done for the public good and to the glory of God. Letters and replies wiliHbe considered, not as confiden tial, rut for public publication unless there is some information you can give which you specifically ask to be held as confidential, in which case- it will be sacredly held as such - Thanking you cordially, I am, . -Yours very truly, SIDNEY A. EDGERTON. .1. Regarding the Sanford-Dunn State-maintained road, please give your personal preference. 2. Your preference as to the pub lic welfare and in;either case- (west s'de Cape Fear river contra via Buies Creek) why? 3. Your opinion "as to why Com missioners reversed their recommendation?- . ". 4. Do you. own property near or adjacent either route and how much? 5. Were your property taxes for 1918, 1919 and 1920 paid by July 1st, 1921? 6. Do you have knowledge or sus picions that intimidation or bribe of any kind were offered any Commis sioner in regard highway under con sideration?. - 7. In your opinion how would this route be located if left " to vote of citizens of Harnett county? Lillington, Aug. 26th, 1921. Reverend Sidney A. Edgerton, Buies Creek, N. C. Dear Sir: Your letter bearing date of the 23rd instant, but postmarked at Buies Creek" at 3 p. m. today, has just been received, and I hasten to reply. - . I quite agree, with you that the fact that one is a-minister of the Gospel in no way, limits his rights or duties as a citizen; but I do not con ceive that a minister speaks with any more authority, upon political ques tions by reason of his cloth. In fact I have always thought that the Mas ter s example, when his enemies sought to involve him. in a political controversy, by. simply admonishing them to "render- unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's," and then went ahead with his spiritual in struction I say, I hive ' always thought that a pretty safe example for a minister to forlow. x - - -It is apparent, of course, to any f from the nature of,your ques iljf&s, that you are seeking to make a personal attack upon me under the pretense of "serving the glory of God"; but in reality totry.to gain some advantage for the political par ty to which you. belong, and at the same time attempt in some way to influence the location of a public highway for the advantage of the coPiinunity in which you happen to live and through your family and church connection have a very vital personal interest. r Now as to the questions: First as to the payment of my taxes, I beg to say that like a good many other citi zens I did not'have.the money to pay my 1920 taxes as soon as I would like to have done, but I sought no special consideration for myself . on this account. As to the 1918 and 1919 taxes, a -considerable part of this was paid in cash, and the county ' and State received full benefit for the whole. TheTbalance was assumed by Sheriff Turlingtonrand involves some : purely private and professional 'tran sactions between us. This question seemed so gratuitous that I thought - best to dispose of it first, and then , proceed with the road proposition, which is evidently the meat in the cocoanut. " ' First as to my t'personal prefer ence." Since I am absolutely with out any authority, in the matter, I cannot, see that my personal prefer ence is a subject for public discus sion; but I don't mind saying to you, just as I have said repeatedly, that my hope and desire has been that the permanent State highway would be built via of Buies Creek, but that until that road could be completed I should like to see the present es tablished route maintained. In so far as I. have any private interest in the proposition it is largely involved h the welfare of the' town of Lilling ton. The value of the undeveloped property .near Lillington in which I Lam interested, is very much more de pendent upon the progress and pros perity of this town than it is upon its location with reference to a State highway. I am convinced that the opening up of the country east of the Cape Fear riv,er by the building of a State highway via of Buies Creek would bring a great deal more busi ness to this town, than anything that could be added to the already very hgood road we have on the west side of the river. Now as to the second question, the effect upon the "public welfare." I am glad to believe that my "personal preference" coincides with the pub lic welfare. A State highway must, of course, be distinguished from a neighborhood road, and there are in terests, not only to this town and community, but to( the county as a whole that seem to be of the utmost importance that we should during the next two years have the best possible highway through the coun ty, and particularly between tne sec tion of Dunn and Duke and the counfyseat. Forty per cent of the county's population are dependent upon that route for communication with the countyseat, and the estab lishment of through lines of traffic are becoming rapidly established. If there is a spirit of cooperation be tween the people of your section and the county authorities, I am con vinced that the construction of a State highway via of Buies Creek can be under way early in 1922. Forj about" a year while this work is in progress, maintenance would be im practicable on " that road, and the traffic would detour by the route on the west side of the river. The maintenance of the Duke bridge alone represents an average cost to the county of a thousand dollars a year. Harnett pays her share of the maintenance fund, and I would like to see her get her full share. Surely none of us should be dog-in-the-manger enough to deny the .county benefits, just because our particular road can't get it. When the furor raised by some of those who, Deme trius like, are seeking to serve their political ands or satisfy their petty jealousies by an attempt to discredit me I say when this false clamor has subsided, I dare say that the sober second thought of the people will make them realize that what they want is not a patched up and circuitous router-but- a real State highway that will provide for and attract the great truck-trains that "will be the future carriers of local freight, bringing the advantages of freight service to a section that has been denied adequate railroad facili ties. When this time comes, if I can be of any service to them in the con test 1 want to assure them that any service that I can render is at their command without fee or emolument of any kind-; my only compensation being the satisfaction that I will be serving the best interest of the coun ty in which I live. Answering your third question I beg to say that the County Commis sioners have not reversed thefr rec ommendation. - This statement has been repeatedly circulated, but it is utterly false. I understand that it has also been stated that after the meeting of the. Board of Commission ers on July 11th at the time the reso lution was passed asking the high way commission to change the route between Lillington and Dunn so as to run via of Buies Creek, that Mr. J. C. Byrd and myself went to the office of the Commission in Raleigh ana sought to interfere with the adoption of that route. This is also utterly false. I challenge any man to secure from any member of the State Highway Commission, or any surveyor, employe, or agent thereof, a statement to the " effect that any member of the board of commission ers or myself, or any representative of either of us, either by correspond ence or personal interview has sought in any manner to delay, ob struct or prevent the adoption of the route via Buies Creek. Now as to four, another of your personal questions: Yes, I am inter ested in several . hundred acres of land lying on the west side of Cape ear river ana adjacent to the town of Lillington, but this land is at Dres ent well supplied with a good gravel roaa duiu by the township. Passing to your sixth question of alleged intimidation or bribery. The nearest approach to intimidation that I know of is the effort of a minister of a great denomination to threaten to prostitute his pulpit to arouse his congregations for the purpose of bringing political pressure to bear upon county officials, and thus influ ence their official conduct. As to the intimation of bribery, most emphat- : ii i . ica.uy.no. i ao not Know . whether by "commissioner" you mean State Highway Commissioner or County commissioner; Dut whichever vou mean, I want to say that there isn't a man on either board whose well known character ought not to be a sufficient defense against such a base less insinuation. No man who is wortn a homestead or has considera uon ior nis own good name, will dare stand out in the open and brine such an accusation against "either or tnese gentlemen. As to settling the matterbv a vote of the people of the county, we should not lose sight of the fact that it. is a State highway and not a coun ty highway that we are discussing I The pride that the people of the county as a whole take in the splen did school and Buies Creek, and the good wishes that are entertained for this school, by people of all denomi nations, parties and sections in the county, would make a ereat major ity of our people earnestly hope that the State engineers find, a feasible route for the location of the high way via of that school; but I should think the survey would "be necessary first before the matter could be in- euiigenuy cecided by a vote. i miua. x nave answered your questions more fully than the spirit they display Justifies. When I read your letter I thought you were really seeking information, and I turned with interest "lo your questions; and I confess my very deep disappoint ment to find that it was not informa tion you wanted, but material to support a personal attack from be hind a pulpit bombproof to .promote a purely secular political end. Shades of Roger -Williams! Who would have thought that a minister of that great denomination founded upon the " doctrines of human free dom, whose very cornerstone was bathed in the' blood of martyrs to the cause of separation of church and blazed by the fathers as to seek to state, should so far forsake the paths use his pulpit for such a purpose! A simple inspection of the ques tions will show that their Inspiration comes not from the cloister, but from a certan well-known, if somewhat discredited Republican politician, whose method of combining a discus sion of public questons with personal nuendo is too well known in this county to pass unrecognized. Your letter has the soft and silken touch of the clergy, but your questions dis close the discordant notes of politi cal jackal. It may indeed be . the hand of Esau, bat It is the voice of Jacob. Yours very truly, CHAS. ROSS. STAGE IS SET AND iHIGII SCHOOL TO EVERYTHING IS"; I PRIMED FOR SING! i ln and menacing fore her. -lWaae M! Whit t referred to nPTTW TIll?CrAVl x rW. Mi. Flora Martin. ho dt urh good work in ill; HARDWARE CO. STOCK IS SOLD WHAT DOES A NEWSPAPER . OWE TO ITS READERS? The relation of a newspaper to its readers is one that at times is worth thinking about. Is it purely a busi ness relation in which the subscriber pays so much per year for the paper and the publisher contracts to give in his news columns accounts of pink teas and lemonade socials, or that Mrs. Jones took dinner, with Mrs. Brown, and Smith's baby has the mumps? Or .does not the average publisher expect to give more than is Included in a normal business rela tion? And doesn't the reader expect more? If it was a pure business re lation, a matter of dollars and cents, the average publisher would charge more per annum for a subscription. Eliminating everything but news few if any of the numerous publishers of the country could supply the paper at anything like the usual charge per year. We fancy that the average publisher likes to think of his read ers as all comprising one big family "having many things in common and who feel that when they. receive the paper each issue that they are get ting more than the two -or three cents that it costs them. We are inclined to think that between the average paper and its average reader there is a relation that is beyond and above a pure business relation. The paper should give that which passes as current news, to be sure, but over and above this it must give a com- munity service that cannot be meas ured in dollars. It must stand for the best that is In the community It mus have courage to condemn, as well as courage to commend. A pa per to command respect cannot be spineless. It mus thave a code and abide by that code. If it is a real paper its readers will respect it If they do not always agree with it. A paper's great asset is a list of read ers who respect it. A town's great est asset is a paper that its readers respect. A paper must be honest. and as far as humanly possible it should be impartial. A paper that does not have the confidence of its readers is incapable as a community spokesman. A, paper that is run for revenue alone cannot long maintain the respect of its readers. These are some of the things that a paper owes to its readers. Sometimes, stop and think what you, as a reader, owe to the paper, not in dollars but in way that is bigger than dollars. PUPILS GIVEN CHANCE TO - MAKE GOOD EXAMINATION All pupils of Lillington High School who did not make their grade last year or who for- any reason missed their examination, will be given a chance Tuesday afternoon September 6th, to make good their examination so as to go in with their classes.
