JACKSON CO. JUHL DAN TOMPKINS, - - Editor Published Weekly By the JACK.30N COUNTY JOURNAL CO f % ' . ? ? Entered as sccond class matter Svlva, N. C. < The funny thing about the nation wide search for Dick Reynolds was that he had no idea lie Was lost. Judging from the news in the pap ers the nearer we get to October's bright blue weather,, the more the people are seeing red. Hostilities along North Carolina's war /one, otherwise known as High way 285 were recently resumed in the Macon county area. By the way, who gave Bishop H. ^M. DuBose authority to speak politi cally for some half million Southern (\ Methodist voters? a. It is said that London is the best governed city in the world; that there is less lawlessness, greater respect for law, and1 fewer crimes. The reaso.i assigned is that there are few laws, less interference with the people, of ficers trained in their duties ,/ and rigid, rapid and impartial enforce ment of the laws that exist. I % You have heard that "times have changed." We didn't believe it until Monday when a white man was tried convicted and sentenced for stealing chickens from a negro. Time wi?s when one of the stock*jokes was a bout negroes stealing white people's chickens. Monday we had to scratch * . y our head and wonder w lie re we have arrived. Up in Cleveland, Ohio, a policeman arrested a man and a woman on a charge of disorderly conduct, because he caught them petting, in an auto mobile on the street. The man protest ed that the woman was his wife. The policeman wouldn't believe it and took the two to the lock up where they re mained for six hoursi The woman sued the policeman for false arrest,' and a jury awarded her $3675 dam-j ages. Just another case '{of officers' interfering with things that do not concern them, of "snooping" into the affairs of people who were guilty of nothing except bad taste, and of hav ing the attitude that every man and ? ^ ? * woman is, either a criminal or a po tential criminal and should be watch ed. ? ' .< ? ?' O ' ' / ? t. 800 school children of Gary, Ind are striking and refusing to attend! school because of the enrollment of aj number of negrojs in the school. So far as the law is concerned they arc| ' * ' . > ? > 1 on the wrong side; but they have the sympathy and support of this paper and the entire Southr While we arc believer^ in law and order and constitution, still we have always been ] / L' ? ? and are yet strong for the nullifica tion of the 14th and 15th amend ments to the constitution. Try as you may, pass as many amendments as you will, it is'Wcll-nigh impossible to! v divorce the people of this country' from the principle of local self gov ernment, in any matter in which they have a real interest. They support ^ what they want to support and ,nulli fy what they desire to nullify. After all that a tolerable healthy sign. _i WHY PICK ON US? V ? In 1908 North Carolina, by an ov-> erwhelming majority voted dry. The j saloons were banished from the state forever, by the people themselves. The North Carolina legislature rati fied the 18tfi Amendment to the con-' stitution of the United States and the people approved the action of their legislature, ft ort h Carolina has been. dry, is still dry and will always re main dry, conic that may. There ar>; other states and spots in other states that are as wet as the Atlantic ocean and sometimes the tide, when it runs high, slashes over into North Caro lina, against the wishes of the people of this state. These things being so, we wonder why the anti-saloon league should pick out this state as the first of the 48, in which to open up the big guns of the campaign that it is waging under the name of "law enforce ment!" POLITICS AND RELIGION We appear, from utterances by Bishop DuBose, Dr. McBride and the anti-saloon speakers, who are deliv ering their political speeches in the churches throughout North Carolina, to be entering upon the most remark able politie&l campaign in the history of this counjry. ^ The line between politics and re T ? ligion, between civil governmental principals and morals, has dwindled, t? the vanishing point and nobody seems to know just what things J^rc Caesar's aud what God's. Once be fpre this same condition of affairs confronted the pepole, the day when political anethemas were hurled from most of the pulpits of the land, and the churches were torn in twain and the country plunged into four bitter years of civil war, over the question of slavery. Strangely enough, the political par tics seem prone to ignore the ques tion thai is becoming paramount and the churches are making the fight. The difference between church and state is fast disappearing and no man cm tell jp$t where it will all end. DANIELS HITS THE MARK Joseph us Daniels hr.s a way 01 brushing aside all the chaff of noil essentials that comes up to obstruct the public vision in things political, and of striking at the unreal issues. Speaking in Washington, Wednes day, Mr. Daniels gave some very jwinted advice to his party, whic:i if heeded will do much to clarify th? muddied political waters. The Democrats must "stop this talk.about beer and religion and start a hostile and militant attack aginstj the present rule of the privileged1 few and dollar ^diplomacy, il they hope for success. We have the house of Morgan now dominating our diplomacy and the house of Mellon controlling our tax system for their own benefit," he asserted. "The j>eoplc are no longer represented and unless they arc stop-j ped and thrown out, this country will get in the situation like Europe, but instead of having earls and counts we will have barons of industry with the rest of the people vassals. "That is the issue for the Demo-: crats and unless they seize it and fight it with all their power they wont get anywhere. The Democratic party has got to get back to its spirit | of 1912. A soft, mealy mouthed i>ol-1 icy wont do.'' There is the crux of the matter. There is the real issue. . In other words, if the Democratic party hopes to win, it must be Dem ocratic. It must reassert ils time-1 honored principles of human rights and human liberties, of equal rights to all and special privileges to mn;', j of the right of the people to control' the affairs, of this nation for the ben- j efit of all jK'ople. John Sharp Wil-1 liams the wise old gentleman, from further South, sounded the same warning, a few days ago, and if the Democratic party really expects to win an election, it must heed the (ad vicc of Daniels and the voice of Wil liams, as they assert the doctrine >1 government that actuated Jefferson, that drove Jackson forward, that ele vated Cleveland to the presidency, and that placed Wilson at the high est pinnacle upon which mortal man ever stood to defend the inalienable rights of,mankind. , VQUALLA , 0 t.
