The railway brotherhoods meet todny to state their attitude toward the anti-strike provisions of the Cummins bill. As Mr. Shea, representing the railroad employes, and Mr. Oompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, have both stated that the law would not be obeyed If enacted, and the machinists' union hag announced that Its members will walk out If congress lenses the . measure, there la' no doubt about tho stand that the meeting will take. But If labor's opposition to the antl-;trlke clause In to be expected, the hope cannot bo re- pressed that labor will even at thin eleventh hour retract Its threat to the law-making power. Let the railway chiefs and President Oompcrs declare as powerfully as possible their inalienable righ. to strike, but In the name of government by the ! will of the majority let them refrain from trying to Intimidate congress and tho peoplo by their . power to tie up the transportation of the country. The representatives of all the peoplo In house and senate are giving to this anti-strike proposi tion . intelligent and careful consideration. Their decision ought to be rendered, under such condi tions' that no man would have a shadow of ex cuse for saying that coercion from any source had aught to do with the result. Popular government in the United States Will have entered upon a dan gerous period if any group of citizens should find that by their threats they could obtain or prevent legislation. If organized labor is reduced to Mich The Way To Build Is To Build. Six months ago Ahcvillo buHlncfui men argueJ with force difficult to cpmbat that thy could not afford to build Mlillo materials and labor were at such high levols. Cut In the pa' month ten new business establishments have bci-n announced for early construction, and work has begun on some of them. This change of policy Hlmply means that bus iness men have gone over the building situation again and have found some factors formerly over looked. They have found that business cannot stand still always without sometime becoming stagnated. Men who expect tho close of 1920 to find them further on. the road of progress realize that, while conditions are not as they would like to see them, they must accept conditions and over come those which are unfavorable by the resources of their own initiative and determination. It seems certain tho business construction will not be neglected In the new year. There yet re mains a marked depression in home-building to be removed by confidence and courage. If new bus iness houses will pay fair returns on investment. small homes for rent will do likewise. This Is not a theory which nobody is willing to try. Already work la In progress on a new apartment house, and two other similar structures have pussed be yond the blue-print stage. There were many formidable obstacles In tho way of housing progress during last year, and some of these handicaps yet remain. But As"he vllle cannot afford to repeat the record of 1919 when hundreds of would-be visitors were warned by friends not to come here because of probability that they could And neither rooms nor homes for rent. THE SCISSORS ROUTE OXE-CENT LOCAL LETTERS. Industrial Legislation. Official Washington elates to see eigr.s that capital and labor both are ready for legislation which will aid In settlement of industrial disputes without resort to strike or lockout except as a last resort. And some confirmation for the belief is found In the fact there is a lull in the Industrial warfare. Last week only two labor controversies were brought beforo the bureau of conciliation, while the record a month ago was seven and eight a week. Today the President's industrial commission re port will be made public, and Its recommendations are expected to form the basis of legislation which will be sought as soon us congress moots. No faith Is placed In compulsory arbitration schemes, but it Is thought that worker and employer, har7 aHSod by costly wars of industry, will welcome the establishment of industrial boards authorized to Investigate disputes and recommend settlements guaranteeing justice to both parties and to the public. It is too much to expect that such lerfal ma chinery would muko strikes unknTTwn, but any program tliat tends to delay the appeal to strike or lockout, and to bring belligerents into confer ence where public opinion may be informed of their claims, is a step forward in industrial peace. (New York Times.) The post olllee makes its profits so easily that it In lookincr nhont f,.r ilavm t.t illMhiimintr tlM ffurolUM. Accordingly the noHtmiiKtei freneral has found a' representative to introduce u bill reducing the local letter rate to one cent. Mr. Burleson thinks that the loss In revenue would be only fourteen mil lions, and that easily could be laken from the in crease in letter writing when the three-cent rate was reduced to two cents. There is no denying that the one-cent letter rate would be a boon, and that the postmaster general would Increaso.hls popular ity by establishing It. The only objection to the boon is that the work is done by tho post olnce, and that there is nobody who can be made to do the work while the post olllee takes the credit. Tho city delivery cost is over (Ifty millions annually, be ing the greatest of ull the department's coats. To have the income and Increase the work might be a change disappointing in its results. The railways ure paid less. as they carry more mails, according to the post olfice's methods of economy, and the reduction of the railway mail service pay exceeds Heveral times the post office's, "profit." The railway mail service cost the pv.t office $32,899,147, according to this year's report, I and the mails are lurger thitn when the railways received sixty millions, more some years, less other yearn, before the post olllee devised the system of payment by space rather than by weight. The post office revenues havo increased six-fold In 30 years and doubled in 11 years, but the increase of pay to the railways has been only seven per cent. If the post office were to pay the railways an in crease in proportion to the Increase of the post ofllco's underpaid railway mall clerks, It would have no surplus to apply to the reduction of the letter rate. The city mail carriers are somewhat In the position of tho railway mall service, and they have not the remedy of the railways in suing the post office for underpayment which is likely to play Its part In the deficiency appropriations In the next year or two. Everybody would like to get the one cent 'rate at the cost of the department, and would say nofhlng against It If it could be taken from fair profits. But the one-cent rate at the cost of the city carriers is another thing. ANXIOUS TO IN IN 19211 Feel That They Must Win to Save Party From Disintegration. Law Dethroned Again. Is North Carolina jealous of the fame of Georgia iu methods of conducting lynching parties 7 It would seem so from the accounts of the doing to death of the Negro who was charged not with rapo but with the murder of R. M. Brown at Franklin ton. The colored man was tied by the neck to an OTHERS WILL FOLLOW. (Birmingham Ledger.) It Is reported via London that Japan is r.ot a party to the allied agreement to play a game of hands off in Russia, but, on the contrary, is increas ing Its forces In Siberia. One exouse for this Is said to be the necessity for prevention of bolshevlsm following withdrawal of the Russian untibolshevist armies. But the failure of Japan to readily accept the noninterference policy in Jtussla Is just one of tho many side issues that will develop unless the league of nations soon becomes a working machinery with enough nations in it to make it compelling. Ex parte and independent action such as Japan Is reported as undertaking in Siberia will be repeat ed now in this direction and then in another until1 we have tho old system of balance of power in full vogue again. Wo cannot IkiioWi what Japan Is doing. We can not ignore the unsettled conditions in Uerinany, in Austria and at Flume. The world's war spark was struck in little Serbia. Just so long as chance is allowed to play its part and each nation is lift to hew out lis own career with such alliances, offen sive and defensive, as seem advantageous under the, constantly shifting conditions of world progress, there is no assurance of stability. There are enough big nations now signatories to tho peace treaty and the league to put both in dominating effect provided tho United States adds her sign manual of approval. Does the United States senate realize this is what the world asks, and it wants nn answer. How men can consider purely party lines with the fate of the civilized world at stake pusses the understanding. methods to obtain what it regards as Its rights, automobile, dragged two miles and then hanged the American Federation had as well surrender . .to Foster and the rest of the direct actionlsts and ' admit that labor's objects are reforms by force. .The merits of the legal Interdict on strikes among ' railroad employes are being debated not . only here but in England. If labor has any right - to strike,. .and no right of American citizens ap pears better established in law, labor has also the . obligations which accompany all rights. A man's right to do as he pleases with his own property ' is not an absolute or unqualified right; he cannot use It in such a way as to interfere with the rights , of his neighbors. : , , s It is such perfectly defensible limitation, of the right to 'strike that labor, J now forced to eon aider. Shall tho right bo restricted by statute, or aaall tho government simply reserve tho primary 1 right to' proceed against any strike which threat ens the life and welfare of the entire people T President Wilson's statement on the right to ' strike Is quoted by friend and foe of the Cummins bill. Mr. Wilson Mid: ( , - Tho right of Individuals to strike is in violate .Ad ought not to be interfered with by any process of government, but there Is a predominant right of the government to protect all of Its people and to assert Its ' power and majesty against the chatlenge of any class. That principle of the President laid down after the federal courts had exercised war powers in ordering leaders of the eoal strike to revoke the order to strike." Its Indications as to his possible . veto of the Cummins bill because of the strike " clause are uncertain, with a probable strong lean ing against the outlawing of strikes by legislation. .At any rate, labor will still be badly led and poorly advised if It does not learn the lesson and act upon it, with or without the Cummins law. that the predominant right of government to pro. itect all of Its people Is a proposition labor has over looked in Its preoccupation with the right to strike whenever and for whatever It pleases. to a tree. Statistics on lynching In the United States show that the cause which was once relied upon to Justify taking life without process of .law is re sponsible Jfor only about one-fourth of these un lawful homicides. The figures demonstrate that the mob spirit knows no race and recognizes no reason but its own ungovernablo purposes. The lynching of white men for murder and of black men for robbery demonstrates that mob law- is a wild impulse that cannot be used on occa sion deemed Justifiable and then put back in leash, llard as It may be under provocation, law can only be supreme by keeping law enthroned always.

Bootleggers appear to have found a loophole In the prohibition law which places no ban on the sals of wood alcohol. The saloons hastened the end of the business careers by Incorrigibility.

The irreconcila ble easy filibuster for a few days when the treaty ' again comes before the senate, but if eighty sen ator are determined to compromise their differ ences, that recalcitrant group will be powerless to delay world peace. - Authentic newa of the "status of the treaty fight Is as difficult to obtain as trustworthy Information on Russia's progress toward peace. Since the sen ate adjourned both sides havs been sparring for . position. The stubbornness of Senator Lodge may 'vet force the treaty into the 1 1 10 campaign, to afford tho democratic party a great, moral issue on which to appeal to tho people. . But regardless of politics great pleasure is being directed on the senate by those who 'are weary of tho twilight sons between ws' and peace. And this pressure BjPears to bo having effect i ; '" ' THE SOUTH AND FATS. 13,000 Xi;V .MILLIONAIRES. (Birmingham Ledger.) During the war 13.0UO new inollionaires were, crated in this country. What is a millionaire? A man who has 1,000 times $1,000. He is a man who piled up a hundred, then a thousand, -then tens of thousands and finally hundreds of thousands until he. had the million. Let it not e forgotten, however, that he had to pile up the thousand and the tens of thousands be foro he got the million. Ui other words, he did not get that million by going out and whistling for It. He worked for It. Before we allow our back hair to rise Up in protest ngulnst these new millionaires, let us ask ourselves If we would have avoided the opportunity to become one of them. Would we so change the institutions of our country that no one can be a millionaire? Would we so restrict sagacity, In genuity and progressive effort as to prevent mil lionaires? Not so long as we realize that the chance Is there for us all. And again, while 13,000 men have become mil UonalreB, millions ot men earned higher wages than ever and millions of small business men made greater profits than ever. If 13,000 of us became millionaires, tens of thousands of us got into the $100,000," $250,000 and $500,000 classes and mil lions enjoyed the opportunity of establishing a fund with millions of capacity in It if the possessors worked it as those who become millionaires work their nest eggs. WASHINGTON. Dec. 28. Never in the history of the Republican party have the Itspubllcansbeen so anx ious to win as they are to win the national election of 1920. They feel that thev must win this time to save their party from disintegra tion. They feel that it is life and (lenh struggle with them: that If tey fail this time their party will he so disrupted that It will go to pieces. The reason for this feeling on the part of the Republicans is that the Republican party is an office-holding organization and a self-perpetuating machine. The primary object of that party throughout Its checkered career has been to secure federal officers for Its members and to serve faithfully and well the beneficiaries of the special legislation it has en acted. Shorn of its power to longer distribute offices among its members or to enact laws to meet the needs of its generous campaign contribu tors the party will cease to function it will have outlived its day of grace and a new party with new leaders would be the result. The democrats believe that, they have a good chance, not only to win the presidency and the house but the senate as well, and this Idea is not very pleasing to the republicans. The Republicans now have a bare major ity of two In the senate, and the loss of one would give the parties equal strength. Tho Democrats hone to hold their 17 of the St seats to be voted on next fall, and that they will add to their number the seats now oc cupied by Spencer of Missouri and Harding of Ohio. The Republicans, however,claim that these two places will be retained by them, but that if such a calamity should befall them us to lose these seats they will be amply compensated by others. The Republicans are hopeful of gaining seats in Oregon, South Dako ta, California, Maryland, and Colora do. Republican setuitors whose terms expire in 1921 ure: lirantlegee, Con necticut; Cummins.

As I had to have the oil I had to pay the extra three cents advance. On Christmas morning I noticed an article In the papers where John D. Rockefeller had contributed 11,000,000,000 to raise salaries of college professors and to combat disease, which all will agree Is very commendable. Now what I want to know Is this How long will It take the oil users of the United States to raise this one hundred million dollars? Is there a college professor with education enough to figure it out? Did John D. really make the gift, or did he use his business cunning to raise the price of oil in order that you and I might raise the said amount?

Machinery Not, Fully Per fected But Firm Stand Will Be Taken. (Raleigh News and Observer.) The hog producing regions of the north and west used to imagine they had tne monopiy or tne .pro duction of meats and fats in the United States. They looked upon the south as a country limited to the production or cotton ana to tne one resource. New England and the east were rated as an ex clusive manufacturing section. But the west ngur ed without a basis of fact. The south is a producer of cotton to be sure, of which It has a monopiy. The west now begins to realize that there Is no monopoly In the production of fata. The cotton producing south has broken the monopoly of fat production by an enormous yield of cotton seed and other vegetable oils, a production so large that the animal fats of the west have taken a secondary place. But to make matters worse for the western monopoly, the south which was once a market for a large amount of western meats and animal fats has gone so largely Into the production of. hogs that the west has not only lost a large market In the south, but finds itself racing a threatening rival. The hog market over the country last week continued to show a lower trend. In the west tlS.60 was an average price, while In the south east the figure ruled at least a dollar higher. That eight per cent difference tells a story. The south Is making fats now from .cotton seed oil, soy Deans ana peanuts lor us own use, lor me wnoie uiuieu States and- for export. Vegetable fats from the south go north In larger quantities than animal fats go anywhere, e With the vegetable fats the south has captured the fat market ot the world. And with our animal fats we are supplying our own market. Hogs are higher in North Carolina than they are In Illinois or Kansas because our eggs are not all In one basket. Our other products are so diversified that our people make a home market for a vast amount of pork product Cotton is still a staple in North Carolina, but is not only a staple for the lint, but a staple source of fat. Bright tobacco la our leading crop. Pork Is a . successful side line. Texas. Georgia and North Carolina, because they are not confined to single crops, rank among the first four or five farm states of the union. The sooth is not a one crop section any more.

Editor of The Citizen: Attached la an editorial from The Daily Okla homan In reference to the recent special election In the Ninth congressional district. As the writer is a former Ashevillelan and a democrat, it is very good news to know of the se lection the people In the Ninth district made sfnd It occurred to me that you would probably he in terested in knowing that North Carolina Is at tracting attention In the western states. In the past year the writer has been in a number of the western states and found everywhere that Ashevllle is being talked of and predicted as be coming one of the leading towns of the south. With best wishes for tho continued growth of Ashevllle, I am, Very truly yours, O. L. ROGERS. Oklahoma City, December 20. The editorial follows: THE CAROLINA ELECTION. "A special election was held in the Ninth North Carolina congressional district Tuesday, resulting In the election of Clyde R. Hoey, democrat, over John M. Morehead. republican, by a plurality of 1,000 votes. Two years ago, Webb, democrat, re ceived a majority of 4.153 over the republican can didate. "Inasmuch as the league of nations question was aa Issue in the' North Carolina campaign, and since the plurality of the victor Tuesday was re duced almost one-half, it is a safe bet that the press bureau of the republican campaign commit tee will send out a leader story on the amazing Inroad made In the solid south by the G. O. P. candidate. The press agents will glass over the fact that a plurality of 2,000 in a sparsely settled district such as the Ninth of North Carolina, in a special election in an oil year, is a splendid showing and equally as good as the 4,000 majority for the democratic candidate in the state election year two years ago. "The hopes of the G. O.

The. In ternal Revenue Department, headed by Commissioner Daniel c. Roper, has a firm aud definite policy planned for the enforcement of the prohibi tion laws of the United eta. tee, and, while the machinery of the service with respeot to their particular fea ture nas not Men perfected, enough has oeen revealed to show that the enforcement will be preslstent to' the end, that the violations will speedily be reduced to a minimum. A great many people will be In spired to violations by potent and im pelling Influences, chief anion? whinh are the enormous profits ofered In the illicit traffic and the encourage ment extended would-be violators hv ' wiuBijr expiouea sentiment or the liquor people against the prohibition laws. There will be an increased numoer or moonshiners and boot leggers. Each of these, of course, is dependent upon the other, and both are encouraged to ply their lawless vocation by denunciation of the laws by newspapers and other sympathiz ers with the traffic. While thousands of people will for a time commit the folly of defying an inexorable canon of government and of society, there is but one in evitable result, and that is the tri umph of the law. Those who fool ishly attempt to impede its progress by violation and. defiance will neces sarily meet with disaster. As an example of the determination on the part of the government to enforce the federal prohibition laws, a recent Incident may be pointed to. Antonio Spinnezt, It has been an nounced by the Bureau of Internal Revenue, has been arrested at t fiarve, trance, on charges of bur giary and violation of the Internal revenue Juaws or tne United States and he is now held for trial in Beth leham county.
