OFFICERS GOING 1 ABOUT RIGHT WAY County and town officers are do ing their duty as officers should when they refuse to be cajoled and wheedled about by "friends" and let every Tom, Dick and Harry loose because "Mr. So-and-So" is interest ed. Eight violators of the law were placed in the local jail by officers Saturday and Sunday, some of whorj will have to serve time on the gang, others pay stiff fines. We're sorry for any man who has to be locked in the county jail, and more sorry for his family, but it is the only medi cine that will cure some of our chronic violators. We know it must be a bitter pill for a man to serve time on the gang or in the county jail, but what's to be done? Talking, threats, small fines seem inadequate, an ever-increasing num ber being noted. We like to see it when it is neces sary, and think our officers should be commended for the manner In which they are going about showing folks that laws are made to be re spected. THANKS DUE TO GREENVILLE NEWS. Transylvania county is deeply in debted to The Greenville News, wide awake morning newspaper in the wide-awake crty of Greefnville, for the fine piece of publicity given this section in the Sunday morning pa per. Greenville newspapers have al ways been very gracious to Tran sylvania county, and merit our reading, not only because they are good newspapers, but also for the fact that both The News and Pied mont have gone out of their way numerous times to be nice to us. O. K. MR. KING, REPEAL 'EM ALL. Word comes from Washington, credited to Chairman King of the senate committee investigating fed eral taxation that is all probability the "nuisance tax" would be repeal ed at the next session of congress.. . . which is absolutely o. k. with us. Fact is, we don't mind how many taxes Mr. King recommends to the congress to repeal. But we just won der, if the "nuisance tax" is aban doned what wih be the next source of revenue tapped. While tho average person likes to hear the word "repeal" when any tax is mentioned, the most pleasant word in the dictionary ito a taxpay er's mind would be less spending for useless things, regardless of where the tax is coming from, whether it be on automobiles, furs, jewelry, soft drinks, or what not. SHOULD THE DEATH PENALTY BE ABOLISHED? With electrocution of 0. C. Fogle man on Friday and the announce ment in state papers that there was at least some reason to doubt the man being guilty of the crime for which his life was taken, one is caus ed to ask the age-old question ? "Is it right for man to take the life of another by imposing the death penalty?" Fogleman was convicted of killing a filling station operator in Rock ingham county, his conviction large ly being traceable to the testimony of a woman eye witness to the crime, and this woman's testimony was lacking in certainty as to the identity of Fogleman as the real perpetrator of the deed for which his life was snuffed out by the State of North Carolina last Friday. Terrified as she was, coold this woman not have been easily mistaken, isn't there at least some room to doubt her testimony, especially when a man's life was at stake? Could it not have been someone who closely resembled Fogleman? Would a man who knew that he was facing eternity declare with his last words that he was innocent, knowing as he must have that dying with a lie on his lips precluded : peace for him in the land to which his soul was soon to fly? , Considering that) the man vr&i ' guilty of the crime for which he was I ? convicted, does the state have} the?, right to take chat which it cs.niun | ( S've ? !ife? Are any twelve men in 1 1 North Carolina really privilegad tc say whether a man shall have the privilege of living out the days which the Almighty has elloted him? OAKLAND NEWS (By Mrs. Lee F. Norton) (Delayed) Arthur Miller of South Carolina was visiting relatives and friends here and at Sapphire the past week. Mr. and Mrs. Guy Matheson and little daughters, Billie Jo, Mary and Martha the former's father, Ed gar Matheson, of Trontman, made a week-end visit to relatives and friends here, returning home Mon day. Mrs. Matheson will be better remembered as Miss Edrie Norton. She has many friends here who were delighted to see her and her family again. They had not visited home folks in more than two years. We, with a party of 13, enjoyed a motor trip Sunday afternoon, tak ing in all the interesting points within easy reach of Oakland. Mr. and Mrs. I. S. Sanderft and sons, Lane and Cecil and Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Norton, Misses Evon Sanders, Billie Jo Matheson and Miss Artense Chappell were Brevard vis itors Saturday night.

Mr. and Mrs. Guy Matheson and little daughters, and the former's father were dinner guests Sunday of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Norton. There was! an accident Saturday near Oakland postoffice where the road from the Boheney section comes into the highway, when a car driven by WesTey Reed of Highlands and a tourist car ran together, causing the tourist car to leave the road, Both cars were damaged and one man (we did not learn his name) was pretty badly hurt. That intersection of the road is quite dangerous when a driver becomes careless. Fred Alexander *of Seneca, S. C., visited Mrs. Mary Burgess and family last week. Fred McNee'.y and sons and Mrs. Breedlove and lfttfa son visited .friends at Swannanea Sunday, i Mrs. Hubert Hall and son Junior I are spending this week with her [sister, Mrs. Burns Alexander, at her home in Cashiers.

Rr.d ol I Brevard cal'ed Monday afternoon on the former's father and sister, T. B. Reid and Mrs. Maggie Nich olson. Mack Reid, of Povtagevule, Mo., has many friends and relatives in this county who will be glad to know he was recently heard from by a relative who says he writes en couraging news from that state. The only thing thpt looks discourag ing to him just now is so much fine cotton being plowed up. Plowing up fine growing cotton may be a good business, but this writer hasn't been able to see it in that light yet. We were asked to request through this paper if some one would give advice on a remedy for grape rot- ( ting when they are most ready to | ripen. The grapes in our section i looked almost equal to those de- i scribed by the spies sent out to the promised land until the blight struck them. We asked some one the other day what they thought caused such a blight and they said they guessed we had not payed the preacher. We told them that was too true to make a joke of. Will some one please give the cause and if possible a remedy.
