GILEAD AND PEKIN MAYOR ROSS ENTER- FRAN KLIN VILLE IL S. COMMENCEMENT COURT HOUSE' AT RAMSEURST HIT BY CYCLONE TAIN TOWN OFFICIALS -----ir-lF Bill II W 1 1 I - - i (By David F. Et. Clair.) The Senior Christian Endeavor So- Washington, May 8 There now ; ciety of the M. P. Church will give a looms before the Harding adminis-' play Friday night, May 11th, at the t ration a triangle of difficult issue to Court House, Asheboro. The play will be met in the new Congress. These ; be given at b o'clock sharp. They have are the world court, prohibition and i been hard at practice on this play for' sugar. A few days ago Mr. Harding, the past three weeks, and they assure seeing what a storm he had raised in f you all that it will not be only a grand, his party over the court, announced success but a great play, that he had no intention of makin? a' u will be remembered they, this political campaign in his cross con-1 same society gave a play some several j tinent swing for the court. This an-. months ago that made a great hit I nouncement was accepted at once as , with the people of Asheboro and the j a practical abandonment of the court j surrounding towns they gave the play I scheme. Democrats in the jargon ofjin. This promises to be far superior slang began to remark "cold feet." The to that play. ! reaction on the White House was in- TWs , h; recommcnd. : stantaeous Mr. Harding hastened to ed anh h tin and: explain that he. was misunderstood. ' ... .. ne a , that he had not deserted tne court scheme but that it wis now up to the people, which Democrats underrtand to mean that it is up to them and the course of events to keep the court: fires burning in the White House. The President in easing up on the court had found surcease from his! sorrows in prohibition but now thatj issue has exhibited a new dark side for him and his party in New York's repeal of the state prohibition law, thus throwing the whole burden of en forcing the Volstead act on the Federal government in the greatest State in the Union. If Governor Alfred Smith approves of the repeal, and without doubt he will, for he was elected on a wet platform, it is estimated it will cost the country $100,000,000 to en force the Volstead law. A terrific battle between the wets and drys in congress to get this money appropri ated is now foreseen. The money power of the great liquor interest in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Massachusetts will be thrown in to the scales in this bitter fight against prohibition in congress. The wets are now so encouraged by the ac tion of the New York legislature that they are openly boasting of repeal ing the Volstead v law and the eighteenth amendment on which it is- a-based. The serious fact facing: the Federal government is that the great masses of the people in these wet States are so strongly opposed to prohibition that juries can not be found to punish offenders. A majority of the court trials for bootlegging in New York and New Jersey are now reported as farces. Indeed jurymen have been reported as patrons of bootleggers on j . i ml t- i i i- :i. : 1 1 - thorities here are now cherishiirg thq iruti. me reuerai proiuuiuon hope 'that the act of the New York legislature in repealing the law will so arovse the moral element in the State that it will succeed in electing a dry legislature but this can not be done before next year. In the mean time Washington must carry on a lone on $9,000,000 for the whole country when more than ten times that amount is needed. The sugar porfiteers have now made plain and beyond contradiction the contention of Democrats like Sen ator Simmons that the tariff was re sponsible for the rise in sugar. The Louisiana cane growers and the beet growers of the West got the authors of the Fordney-McCumber tariff to put a tariff of 2 cents per pound on imported sugar which means Cuban sugar. Domestic sugar supplies less than one fifth of the demand of the American market and the American, holders of the Cuban product boost- ed the price above 10 cents to maxe; people of this county and espec'all v the tariff on sugar odious. How, those whose names we have recorded these profiteers are reported, accorr-!as our patrons last year, with our ing to Republican tariff authorities,1 ambitious plans for this year, we are to be engaged in organizing the' commencing now to show them that American housewife in a nation-wide, boycott against sugar in order to scrap the tariff and ruin the domestic producers. The domestic producers nee in the hovrntt a conspiracy to mini their buHines8 for the benefit of half dozen American-Cuban sugar; this year give us a fair m: in corporations, passed among the cuntv fa-V .
