PATRONIZE HOME INDUSTRIES.
Some time 'ago Secretary Kuyken-
dall, of the Winaton-Salem Board of
Trade, said in an address at Thorn-
asville :
"And above all patronize home
industries yourself, buy I nomas ville
flour, that is, provided the miller
buys Davidson county wheat. It is
like the story of the farmer who
went into a store and asked the price
of an ax. A dollar and fifteen
cents,' the merchant told him. 'I
can get it from Sears & .Roebuck
for 98 cents,' said the farmer.' 'All
right,';ac8weredthe merchant, 'IJwill
sell you that axe on precisely the
same terms that Sears & Roebuck
will. Do you agree ?' 'Agreed,' said
the farmer. 'Very well,' said the
merchant, 'put down 98 cents for
the axe.' The farmer did so. 'Now
2 cents for the stamp,' said tbe mer
chant, '3 cents for the money order
and 25 cents for the express.' The
chagrined farmer did bo. 'Now,
said the merchant,' laying the axe
on the shelf, 'come back in ten days
and get your axe.
Yes, patronize home industries
whether they patronize you or not.
This is hard to do, though it is done
by many right here in Asheboro.
There are a few soft shell crabs who
can barely tell Sunday from Mon
day nnleBS there is a dollar in it for
them, and who imagine they can get
things -away from home cheaper
than at home, and yet they want to
sell their wares at higher prices to
yon than others charge, and they
turn red in the face when you tell
them about it and go off and talk
about you behind your back. There
are not many such here, only a few.
This is not the only town. They
are found elsewhere as well as here,
but wherever they are a pestiferous,
snarly set who live to squeeze the
eagle to make it hollo w, and their
lives are constantly miserable when
they are not grafting or gouging
some one.
The back home movement is an
organized effort at getting more peo.
pie to make their homes in North
Carolina. Much can be accomplish
ed by this united effort. Reports
from a very reliable source indicate
that there is a feeling of unrest and
dissatisfaction among a great many
people who have been led into the
Northwest by exaggerated reports of
the possibilities there sent out by
land sharks and boomers, and who
are preparing to move. The North
Carolina Back Home Association
will get in line to bring toNorthCaro.
lina a portion of these dissatisfied
people.

Don't forget to do missionary work
for gcod roads wherever you go.
The Fair and Home Coming
Week will be a great credit to the
county and to the State.
The agitation for good roads
should be kept up by all public
spirited people until the good end is
accomplished.
No better investment can be made
than putting money in good roads,
and nowhere are they needed worse
than in this section of the State.
There is a new spirit of progress
everywhere in this section. You
can see it everywwhere, feel it in the
air.
Let the business men unite with
the farmers and get busy for the
good roads proposition. There will
be turmoil and confusion at first,
but rejoicing will come later.
A gentleman once said to the ed
itor, "If you have a chronic grum
bler or knocker in town, the best
thing to do is to get up a purse to
pay his way out of town as quick as
you can."
The purpose of the agricultural
fair this fall ia to promote agricul
tural progress. It is a part of a
system of a campaign of education
to help the farming and agricultural
interests.
There is a disposition to overdo
some one thing in many sections.
If any particular thing is started
and is made a success, then every
fellow wants to start in the same
business.
And still the wonder grows ; how
on earth is it we never until new
found out the wonderful resourc-s
of North Carolina and why ia it
these resources have not lon ao
attracted attention ?
If you have not triad the split log
drag for dirt roads you should do so.
Some splendid roads are being niai'e
in many counties. After gradir.g
the roads they should be dragged
after every rain.
The good roads sentiment is now
at high tide, and it behooves all who
are interested in road improvement
to lend a helping hand. Good roads
everywhere regulate the cost of pro
duction and marketing, and directly
influence general development.
The Randolph Fair and Hone
Coming week, beginning October
31st and ending November 4th, will
be crowded with interesting features,
and the exhibits will be worthy of
the attention of the great crowds
which are expected to be present.
The Randolph county fair for this
fall should and will be made an ex.
position of the resources of Randolph
connty and of this section of the
State. If this is done it will not
fail of patronage or fall short of its
laudable pnrpose.
The Back Home movement ia not
only intended to - induce thoae who
have. wandered far to return home,
bat ict invite others to locate here
and aid in developing our resources.

The Monroe Enquirer writing of
the importance of teaching agricul.
ture in the public schools calls at
tention to the importance the ancient
Hebrews placed on child training,
from which we clip the following:
''The old Jew was a master in the
art of training the youth. The
world has never seen the superior
of the ancient Hebrew in child tram
ing,.and the Jew in the olden time
saw to it that his coy was taught
Borne useful trade. That Jew of
tne straightest sect, I'aiu, was a
great lawyer, a wonderful scholar,an
orator of such power that he aston
ished the world but he was' taught
a trade and when he was thrown on
his own resources he used his hands
in the trade he had been taught
when be was a boy tent making."
This from the Charlotte Chroni
cle with reference to' the senatorial
race:
"Ex-Governor Aycock will occupy
a unique position. No shafts will
be shot his way. We do not be.
lieve there is a single paper in the
State that will find the remotest
occasion to assail his record or his
personal."
The States ville Landmark adds :
"Wait, beloved, until the cam.
paign gets warm. The ex-Governor
is a mighty fine man and a mighty
popular man, and it is The
Landmark's wish that the campaign
may be fought to a conclusion with
out any candidate being unduly as
sailed. This is too much to hope
for, however, and Gov. Aycock may
expect his along with the rest."
Yes, beloved, yon do not have to
wait until the campaign gets warm.
They are at it now. The vile tongue
of slander is at work and the worst
part of it is that some ministers of
tbe gospel are being used as the in
struments for the dissemination of
false charges, it may be unwillingly,
but it is nevertheless so.
What Asheboro moat needs is a
united effort to get factories estab
lished that will not compete with
the ones we already have. By this
business enterprises already estab
lished will not be injured.

WASHINGTON LETTER
The Tariff Board Government by
Stealth Other Matters
Clydf H. Taverner Special Waehlutjtou coiTes.
poudent of Tbe Courier
Washington, Sept. 20. Oa his
swing around the circle President
I aft will ttll the people it was nec
essary tor mm to prevent a reuuc
Hon oi tne cost of living, by veto
ing the tariff bills, because the tariff
board hadn't repotted.
Here is some tariff board history
that the President will probably not
refer to:
The tariff board wa3 created Sent.
26, 1909. In June, 1911, 21
months later, Congress nailed for
wnatever data the board had collect.
ed on the cost of manufacturing
wool, and was informed the board
had nothing to report. What was
the tariff board doing during these
21 months?
Soon after the appointment of the
board, its chairman, Henry C.
Emery, established headquarters in
the private residence of Frederick
Hale, son of ex-Senator Eugene Hale
nf Maine, who has been known for
yvais as one of the most powerful
uetenaers of ultra protection.
in October, 1910, it was announc
ed that "the work of the tariff
buard" was to be "boomed at a
series of bauquets Then for three
ninths the banqueting campaign
occupied the time and attention of
tue board.. The two moet important
banquets at which the members of
tbe boai d were wined and dined
wereghea by the Arkwright club,
tue leading association of high pro
tection manufacturers of the coun
tiy, and the National Association of
Wool Manufacturers, iha wards of
Schedule K. 1 he plan adopted f or
estimating costs is the flaa vth'.ch,
fat the dinner given by the benefi
ciaries of the wool siheiule, Emery
was advised to adopt. That plan
practically amounts to tni: tue
tariff board will supply the woolen
manufacturers with a sample of
woolen cloth and a card, and the
manufacturers will patriotically jot
down their version rd to the cost of
mannfacture u the U. 8.
It was a ytur after the board was
created before it started to investi
gate the manufacturing end of the
wool tariff. And this is the board
for whose report all tariff revision
must be held upl
Goverumeat by Stealth.
The Taf t administration ia even
unpopular with the army of govern.
ment employees in wasmngton.
Whi e they are not savin? anvthinsr
publicly, the government clerks are
meter necause oi tne many rules in
augurated under Mr. Taft which
interfere with their personal liberty
and deprive them of rights guaran
teed to all citizens by the constitu
tion itself, it tne clerks should
protest aeainst their conditions.
even to Congress, they would lay
themselves liable to disgag rule
methods to prevent a leakage of
information injurious to the repub
lican party such aa occured in the
Ballinger case. .
The following official order sign,
ep by George Otis Smith, director of
the geological survey, rives an idea
of Russian-lite censorship attempt:
ea in one department: "Kule 2.
That no interview shall be sranted
without securing from the person
soliciting the same a promise that he
win, oerore su omitting tne material
to his publication office, present a
copy of hia manuscript to the direc
tor for approval." So far 'as is
known among; newspaper men in
wasmngton, nothing ao drastic aa
thia in tbe way of press censorship
waa ever . attempted before in
America,
, Taft'i Offending;
Senator Cummins of Iowa baa
formulate! a bill of particulars
wherein President Taft has offended.
Some of the President's offenses
cited are: His position on the
Payne-Aldrich tariff law, his posi
tion on the bill for the further reg
ulation of' interstate common car
riers, his position on the change
made in the postal savinca law. hia
attitude on the control and disposi
tion of our public domain, hia posi
tion on the proposed income tax law,
hia position on the Canadian renin.
rocity bill, his work for the peace
treaties, nis vetoes oi tne woolen
schedule, the free Hat bill and. th

Democrats Keep Promise
Last November Maine elected a
Democratic legislature pledged to
state wide primaries. Tnat promise
has inst been lulnlled, exactly aa the
Maine Democrats promised it wonld
be.
Three years ago the republicans
of the nation elected' William II.
Taft to the presidency on his per
sonal pledge that he would revise
the tariff downward. President
Taft has turned dgn two oppor
tunities to keep his word.
The Democratic legislature of
Maine did after election what it
promised to do before election. Mr..
Tafi has but exemplified the old Re.
publican rule of resetting promisee
aa soon as an election is won.
". , A Change of Heart
JuBt why President Tafs broke
a promise made to five membeis of
Congress on the statehood question
has never been explained. " . ; '
1 In the early days of the extra aes
s ion five members of the committee
on territories viaited the Preaident
and laid before him the draft of a
resolution provided that the recall
propoiition should be submitted to
the people of Arizona and that the
majority should decide ' whether it
wonld be , wise ta retain it in the
Arizona constitution or : not. The
bill waa ao framed that neither Con
gress nor the Preaident - wonld have
to go on record aa to the .merita of
the recall. President Taft gave
every Congressman present to under
stand he wonld sign this bill. The
committee. Republicans and Demo
crats alike, left the White House
with a definite understanding to thia
end. , -.:7
These members made the state
ment on the floor of the House that
the Pieaident )iad agreed to aign the
bill, and it waa passed by both
honaes of Congress. Bat the Presi
