Important happening, rack ai seems, area, accidents, eta, may aa 'paanea is l wowier-i lars expense. People who get their living from the public ought to contribite tome thing to the public good. The motto, "live and Lt lite," nay be a good one, bnt "lire and help lire" is a better one. The Woman's Club is getting the honor lor making Aaheboro a ''City Bevatifnl" and they are justly enti tled to the distinction. The one thing uppermost in the minds of the good women of the town is to make Asheboro suoh a beautiful town that everybody will be proad of it. Ad investigation discloses that The Courier was in error two weeks ago when we said that Senator John H. Bankhead, who has oharge of Representative Oscar W. Under, woid's candidacy for President, had recently returned from a trip to Mr. ThomaB F. Ryan's Virginia home. The greatness of New York City ean be seen when we realise some-' thing of its bonded debt. The grcss debt is more than a billion dol lars; which in raand cumbers is $10,000 more than the public in. debtedness of the United States gov ernment. It is tru9 that $150, 00,000 of the bonds are sinking bonds or self-sustaining bonds. These rednce the net debt to $860, , M,000. WATER. Merely perfunctory attention has .been given the water question and yet there is no subject of more vital interest now than a supply of pare water for towns and citiss. With the growth of towns and manufac turing enterprises the demand for water is becoming a serious proposi tion. The signal of warning is given. The water problem must be grappled with, and the sooner the better, and if there is any possibili bility of getting it under ground or ubove ground, it is worth the town's best money. Tbn wafer problem is not only for Asheboro to settle, bnt most oth?r towns have the same trouble. It is becoming a serious matter everywhere. Said a gentleman from a western town recently : ''Do yu know that we aae water half a doien times f Why, after it has gone through the processes of the factory, we ass it to wish boilers and then ran it oat, and let it settle and use it aver again. That's how ,maoh we think water." A good friend has written the d tor of The Courier and asks what he thinks of the Senatorial situatioa aad that he hat read The Courier with meditation and prayer, bat has . failed to find an expression of opus ion as to the merits of th contra tarsy between at least two of th gentleman in th race, and why this significant silence. W have bean thinking in circle and wondering if "Charles Brantley would provok controversy and engage ia person alities when be makes his speech in the near future. Will it be a speeob the opposition can use or a campaign - iacument ? Kay verily. No, the editor has not written or talked aboat V e senatorial situation; " He has thinking and considering waning s?n ti oner, t and the swell I - tilt) of public sentiment. Thia :b, hawevt-i, by way of pare n in all well and proper to i hp's of publn i f33iil9 ( . " .1 V'.!"''itot is pit!) Absat the only, way we are to get good roads hereabout is for. the basinesa mea to snbsoriVa liberally and for the farmers living along the proposed Capital Highway to make liberal oontribttions to build the road a hich Mr. Taf ta is doing so mmoh to help baild. Ia assay states roads have been bailt by getcroas subscriptions; This road will an object lesson when built, and other parts of the county will see the ad vantage of good roads and will get the good roads fever and mora roads will be built. But remember that it UVre mo...j to baild good roaos, and Mr. Tufts cannot famish all the money, yet he is spending it ev ery day. He has had a surveying corps for several weeks at work in th ooanty. A OQRREQT TIE. Qovernor Jarvis is of the opinion that a' wide-awake police foroe and blind tigers cannot live together in the same town, bnt that a wide awake police force cannot do any. thing unless they have a determined pnbhc sentiment back of them." We agree folly with th wise ex governor in his fiast statement, bnt the latter will not held water. A police officer should perform the duty he is sworn to perform whether or no! there is a single man to baok him np. This from the Concord Times ia the correct way of looking at the matter. And it might be added that there is something wrong with the officers of a community where liquor is sold. It can be prevented where they go at it the right to break np the traffic. The best thing to do where blind tigers exist is to get after the effi. oials and see to it that they enforoe the law as they are required to do. DRUQ STORES GUT OUT LIQUOR. Who wonld have thought itl Greensboro puts the lid on the drag stores and no longer can prescrip tions for sick or well people be filled in Greensboro drng stores. The ooauty medical sooietj recom mended it. No liquor is sold by drug stores in Lexington,' Albemarle, Thomas villa and Asheboro, and in many other towns. In some towns it is sold by druggists on the sly without Jicense bnt most draggiits refuse to deal in it without lioense. Dr. J. W. Long, one of the lead. ing physicians and surgeons of G reeneboro and state and "an ardent prohibitiotet, in speaking of the law declared it would be gladly wel comed by the physicians there. He said the medical sooiety had recommended it, and that physi cians generally , regarded th pre. scription liquor ttisimss as a great evil, and they would gladly feel the relief from having to comply with request for prescriptions for liquor. THE OZARK HOUIP S01T9 At th recent Democratic conven tion at Joplin, Misaouri, the dele. gates chanted the Osark ''houn song." TJi song runs thus : Every time I cove to town Loo ooys xeep kioeib say- aawg roan'. Makes no difference if he IS a hoan', They gotta stop kickia' my dawg aroan.'" S bar beea disposed to poke" fan at the sentiment which aarnes wivn it a wiling nouna. Th Kw Tork World forcibly champions the sentiment as the oea tary's sail to justice. It says : "The sentiment f the line is ad. irable. It is tbe best kind of de- asoray. Th Oaark bard, in his hnet. rnral way, has strnok a chord that needs to be repeated on erv Democratic platform daring tb eominsr campaign to Ire the popular heart. "The houa' dg is tb trumpet call to ' he - batll for justice. If th Democratic parfy is in earnest, it will make the country understand that wbea it says 'they gotta sstop kiokm' my dawg aroun,' it Means that t' e consumers, the plain peo ple, shall not be abused any longer With tb Usirk atma for its wtc. ward and t firm resolve a figbt for the right what is there to pre vent it from marchings to victor) next November and planting ,'8 standards on the hlgl est ramparts of the White House." Ir. J. O. Wii'p n, of Ci' FI8S VOWVB. Fish ponds are th order of the day ia Kansas. The state is encour aging the building of ish ponds by refsnding half of the taxes. Cor respondence schools have been es tablished to teach the farmer how to care for the fish after the aonds are stocked at the expensa of the state. Fish in the stream of North Carolina away from the seaooast have about reached the vanishing point. A well stocked fish poad is a good asset. Prof. Oroome, the Kansas game- warden, has this to say w " If every farmer in Kansas will grow one mess of fish a week for bis owt family, it will mean $1,250,000 sua a to tne revenues of Kansas each ye ur, if they are eareful and sell a few fish each year the revenues of the State will be increased from $3,000,000 to $1,000,000 a year, j bish are the easiest grown and most I productive crop that can be raised 1 on a farm. A half acre pond will return more to the farmer each year than any five acres he owns and with the least work." A ddrVonal Counties to Hare Hook worm Dispensaries. The connties of Martin, Greene. Lenoir and Duplin have made pro. vision during February to have the state and and connty dispensaries for the free examination and treat ment for hookworm disease. These additions bring the total number of connties making such provision to thirty-one. The wort has been completed in twenty counties. The worn is carried on simultaneously in five counties. JJp to this time the records show that about 10,000 people have been treated. Many of the results of cures may be seen in each connty and are truly remarkable.
