\ This is justone illustration of what
prohibition is doing for the Fnited :
States.' Tbys is not an important mat
ter, some will say. and the mere .fact j
that men are spending money now for '

W. N. EVERETT.
I , .
as newspaper rei>orts indi
cate. the Governor's selection for a
{successor to the late J. Bryan Grimes
has met with popular l'avor that ah*
j most reaches the proportions of ae
damatkuL \ Governor Morrison has
asked Hon/W. N. Everett. of Rocking
ham. to assume the duties recently en
joyed by Mr. Grimes, and supporters
land friends of Mr. Everett from every
jpart of the state are urging him to
i accept the appointment.
| Mr. Everett lias been prominent in
the public life of his city, county and
State, and in addition has been .very
; successful as a business man. Today
is recognized as one of the mqpt in
| fluential men in the State Legislature, j
and he litis always worked in that body j
fur progressive. needy legislation. In
addition Mr. Everett lias been close to j
the late Secretary, he knows something j
of the plans Mr. Grimes had made, and j
he is fully-qualified to carry on the j
magnificent work mapped out and be-.j
gun by the latter before his death. We;
believe Governor Morrison has never
made a happier selection than when
he asked the Richmond county man to j
accept the .secretaryship.

TOUR HOME TOWN.
This is the time of tlie year when
we should give special thought to the
beautification of our home town, and
the best way to do this is to beautify
our own homes and yards first. The
Franklin .Times offers the, following
suggestions: . . " '
"Work for your town town.
‘ Beautify "it. Improve it. Make it
attractive. j
"The world war and the Treaty oft
Peace, tin* Progressive Tariff and all {
sueli things are important subjects : j
but what’s the good of cleaning up tln* i
world unless you sweep your own door |
steps/' 7- . 1
■ The best advertisement of your bus
iness is tin* town you live in.
‘‘Towns get-repntations, as well as*!
men. Make your town talked all over j
the State. It will thus draw people.
And where the i*eople com** there is
prosperity.
-Rid your town of one eyesore after
another. <’l<*an up tin* vacant lots and
plant them in gardens. Make a clut
tered yard a disgrace. Make public
opinion too hot for those who will not
help."
In other words, your town will he
wliat you make it. You can it or
raise it before tin* whole world. Show
enough interest in it to work for it.
Don’t sit down and bo one of the
drones.
WHO ARE BREAKING 01 R LAWS’;
The above caption is a very perti
nont Tlie Charlotte News
asks in an editorial, and the Char
lotte.paper goes 011 and gives facts and
figures which show' that Americans
nud not foreigners are lhe chief law
violators in the I'nited States.
“In moments of overweeifing self
pride Americans are often guilty of
condoning and minimizing the crimi
nal records being made in this coun
try.” The News says, “on the ground
that if is the foreign population which
contributes so materially toward law
breaking and corrupting the morals of
the land.’’ This is not the case, and
Tlie News points out further that
‘‘this does not appear to i>e true in
California, at. least. San Quentiou, the
largest prison on the Kaeifie Coast,
during 102 b received 1.170 prisoners,
of whom 838. were native Americans,
112 Mexicans, 10 Canadians, 17 Ital
ians. 1L Chinamen and 3 Japanese."
These are the records; and they
show that Americans should call ii
halt and not try to “pass the buck” on
to the foreigner within our gates. W e
have enough trouble- With the foreign
er, to be sure, but we have more with
our own people, as these records show.
\Yc hear much about the undesirable
.Tap. ami yet the records show that
during 1921 only 3 of them were sent
to the Pacific prison. California is
their stronghold, and persons of that
State have tried to rule them out be
cause they claim the .laps have low
ideals and no respect for'law. The
statistics dou’t support this ‘conten
tion.
As The News again says “The rec
ords at Sail Quentin indicate, howev
er. that there is no such tendency
among the Japanese to flaunt the laws
of the country and to commit manifold
wrong-doings as is.Jso overwhelmingly
prevailing among the Americans in
that section. The number of Japan
. cse prisoners among the more than 1,-
100 is practically negligible.
“Another _ interesting'' disclosiiit
' made as to the prisoners is that
; not a single one committed for offense?
/was a college graduate. Education is
1 not a panacea for evil. It does not
re-create or regenerate, but it does in
stitute in men and women ideals of
lawfulness and of decency and of vir
tue which the uneducated, at least the
illiterate, can not possibly entertain.
In tlie interest, therefore, of crime
prevention, it would seem to be profita
ble that we get the opportunities of
education equally diffused to the mass
es.” ■ ’
WANT PEAC OCK BACK.
We don’t know'all of the laws in the
case, but we hope there is some way
for North Carolina to bring Dr. J. W.
Peacock back to this State and keep
him.. So far as we can see there is no
reason whv lie should be allowed liis
* V
freedom unless we are going to turn
everyone else out of tlie criminally in
sane department of our State prison.
IHe was tried by a State court, was
found to be insane, and was sent to
the insane department of the prison.
The fact that he made his escape and
has been declared sane in Florida
should not change his status here aqv.
So far as the 11m4 is concerned, we
are perfectly willing for Florida to
have him as a citizen, but we can’t
afford to flirt with justice, and if we
allow this man to stay in Florida
j without making every possible" effort
Ito bring him back to serve the sen-
I (once imposed upon him by a court of,
! the State, we will be lowering* tin*
j court standards in the State. People
| have far too little respect for the
j courts as it is, and if we allow this
I man to remain in Florida, a free man.
it will tend to lower still the stand
ards of justice in North Carolina.
Keeping tlie Fetzers.
! Salisbury Post.
The Cniversity coulfi not afford to
I give up the Fetzer boys. If they are
j valuable to the North Carolina I’ni
! versify they should remain as coaches
at the. Hill. They are valuable and
they will refuain The * f-ict that
ether institutions desired them is fur
ther proof of their worth to their home
stab*, and anything that another in
stitution would pay or do to get them.
North Carolina could afijprd to give and
do t<* retain them. We must stop
sitting supinely and resigned bv and
premitting our people to leave at the
urge of sonic* outsider who wants them
j and is willing to pay for their -etWces.
! Wc are now well able to keep our
| own valuable, workers, and nuNt stop

Real Diamonds Are Displayed in
“Pink Gods.”
A production hazard not' usually
considered, has been met in Penrliyn
Sfanla'ws Paramount production of
“Pink Gods,” a picture featuring Bebe
Daniels and James Kirkwood. This
is the danger of los* and the* cost of
insurance* of tens of thousands of dol
lars worth of diamonds and. je\we*lle*d
pieces, which are* seen in tlie picture.
The theme of “Pink Goods” which
comes tp the Star theatre today and

for women, and the* dramatic action re
volves about a young wife, played by
Miss Daniels, and the lengths of indis
cretiem to which she goes to obtain the
precious stones. Mr. Kirkwood is
seen as Jorn Queleh, the “man who
made Kimberly,” and the man who
has in his gift innumerable gems.

. 1 DR. J. W. PEACOCK WRITES
! HIS WIFE FROM FLORIDA
. —; • )
■ j Tlie Slayer of Taylor Says a Florida
G Judge Rules Him a Free Man.
j Thomasville, Jan. 15. —A letter from
1 Dr. J. W. Peacock, from Lakeland,
‘ Fla., Jelling of his having been set
free by a judge in Florida and by
. | alienists who pronounced biin sane,
wiL* received here today by liis wife,
j M/s. J, W. Peacock, also an/order for
I his office and me/Ucal fixtures to be
! sent to him came in the same letter
1 with the information he was intending
to begin the practice of medicine at
some point in Florida.
Dr. Peacock is spending today find
probably tomorrow at. St. Petersburg,
| Fia„ according to information, with n
i view to deciding on a location for tlie
practice of his profession.
The question is, already being agi
tated here as to the proper course
to pursue in regard to bringing the
; doctoy hack to North Carolina, from
I whose, criminal insanp department he
I escaped sometime last: summer. For-
I mer Solicitor Bower, it, -is learned,
j states that he can be brought back.
Solicitor Bower was prosecutor in the
ease for the state during his trial for ;
murder in Davidson county last sum
mer a year ago.
Dr. Peacock was tried in Lexington
in June, 1021, on a charge of murder
ing James E. Taylor, chief of police
of Tlionmsvilk*. After one of the most
sensational trials in the annals of tlie
state, a jury from Rowan county re- f
turned a verdict of not guilty on the ,
ground that the physician, had slain |
(’hiet Taylor while in an irresponsible
mental state.
Judge T r P*. Finley, presiding, under.
the laws of the state, ordered /Pea
cock held for investigation. * A hear
ing was held in Greensboro the latter
part of June, 1021, which resulted in
Peacock going to tlie state’s criminal
insane asylum.
Last summer Peacock made his es
cape, from the insane asylum and the
information from Florida today was
tin* first beard of him £inee bis sen
sational escape.
Peacock on April 1(5, 1021, killed
Gliicf Taylor on the streets of Thoni
nsville. He fired with a shot gun
from his office window upon the chief,
wounding Taylor severely. Peacock
then rushed from hi> office and emp
tied several shots from his automatic
pistol into the head of helpless officer.
The killing of Taylor was said to be
one of the most brutal ever! recorded' ’
in' Davidson county.
The trial of Peacock was one that
: ield the attention of North Carolina
for over a week. ’ Both sides, tlie
state and defense, were represented
by some of the ablest legal talent in
the state. The defense fought the
case on the ground of insanity, oon
tendiijg that the defendant was suffer- 1
mg from paranoia. Several - able 1
alienists testified that Peacock was a
paranoiac and that while he appeared j
rational most of the time the disease
would probably take bold of him at any .
time.
The killing of Taylor followed the j
burning of Peacock’s barn. However,
| tlie defense never contended that. Chief
Taylor was in any way responsible for
the destruction of lln* barn. /
During the trial it was brought out
j that. Peacock’s mother was residing;
in Florida. His sister and her hus
band. of Florida, wen* present at tlie
trial.
