^OLTTICAL ANNOUNCEMENT

Vo the democrats of Jackson county :|
I hereby announce my candidacy
'.Estate enajor for the Thirty
Seventh Senatorial district, subject
io the pction of the democratic pri
maries; and in doing so I think that
[ should give you an idea of what 1
.vith to accomplish in the General
Assembly.
1 1. The Cullowhee Normal and In
dustrial School is the only state in
titution, so far as I know, to which
there has riot been constructed or is
not being constructed a splendid road
Mid' if nominate,! rnd elected I shall
ondeavcr to "sccuie legislation provid
ing for an appropriation, uot of the
state road fund;, sufficient to hard_
surface the road fcrom Sylva to the
Cullowhee Normal and Industrial
School, as was contemplated in the
state highway construction tict.
2. The boys and girls in our
jparcclv settled mountain districts
are entitled to the same educational
advantages as these in the more
populous centers of the state. The
education of the Children is a mat
ter for the state, they are all ri,1
Carolinians. Under the present sys
tem it is impossible to give our boys
%nd girls the educational Opp rtvm
ties to which they ape entitled with
out making the taxation for that pur
pose burdensome to the people of the
?veaker counties, such as isjmrs; am
I shall stand^for such legislation a*
3hall procure "equal educational ad
antagea to our boys and girls, ami
at the same time equalize the burden
jf taxation for educational, purposes
?t>i?ng the counties. . '
' Upon these matters of vital import
to our county and the other counties
of Western. North Carolina, I stake
?i candidacy and shall fcheerfulh

ifowever the board was not in po
rtion to put the entire pljui into op

reasons: first because ? of a lack of

what they need to make theiu up

i lack of knotting just the cost that
rill be necessary to put the pl^ln
