JACKSON CO. JOURNAL dan TOMPKINS, - Editor Published Weekly By ike ,/; JACKSON COUNTY JOURNAL GC Enteredas second class matter at Sylva, N. C. WHERE TO GO? "*A number of Democrats have been opposing the election of Governor Smith, and supporting Mr. Hoover, *,ying that they are opposed to Smith because of his stand on pro hibition, and have been making ot prohibition an issue in the campaign. Throughout the tyid. breadth of the land opposition to Smith has been voiced because ot' the tact that he is a Roman Catholic. The. agent!? of somebody have been very busy retailing all kinds of talk about the Catholics and have been ml laming the minds of the people with religious prequdice. The country has been blanketed with anti-Catholic pajiers and pamphlets, for which somebody has been paying a lot of money. Some preachers and itinerant evan gelists have made it their business to attack the Catholic church and Governor Smith because of his ni liliation with that church. Now llr. Hoover, the man who was to save us from Hum and Rome, is sues a clear-cut statement, declaring that he does not want any votes ei ther for himself or for the Republi can party because ot' religion, re bukes those who have been making re ligion an issue in the campaign, and deplores the fart that religion should ever be raised as an issue in a |H?lit ical campaign in this country, which is dedicated to religious freedom. Mr. Hoover tliien directed I)r. Herbert Work, chairman of the Republican national committee, to make it clear to the people that prohibition is not till issue in the campaign, ami Dr. Work proceeded to tell the people that prohibition is not to be consider ed as an issue. II we are to take Mr. Hoover and Dr. Work at their word; if we are to consider them as men of honor; it we are to believe that they mean what they say; just where does that leave the Democrats who have been opposing Smith because of his re ligion or his prohibition attitude, or both? In what kind of predicament dr the Republicans, who have used thi two things ng.iinst Smith, tind them selves f We have been told from pulpit, from forum, from press, Irom pamph let, and from whisperer that we must not vote for Smith because he is a Catholic and because he is wet. Now Mr. Hoover and Dr. Work assert that neither of these is to be consid ered as nn issue. In other words, Mr. Hoover and Dr. Work have repudiated everything that has been urged ujioii the South ern Democrats why they should op pose Smith, except the excuse thai i? sometimes used, that he is sujh ported by Tammany. Since the nominee, Mr. Hoover, and the chairman, Dr. Work, have made these matters entirely clear, can anybody assign a reason why the Anti-Smith Democratic Head quarters, shouldn't close up and go home? That is unless there is some reason back of all this that the |ieo pie have not been told about. WEBSTER Mi*s Lucye Hodden of Pisgah For est is visiting Mrs. L. T. Queen.

TILSON) It is doubtful if there has ever been a time when a good livestock and poultry show could mean so very much to everybody in Jackson coun ty as the show coining the 19th ami 20th of this month. Seldom if ever in the history of livestock development over the world do we find a county section that has grown or does grow lots of good livestock without a real good fair or show oath year. And everywhere in tlic livestock history of the various sections of the en tire world that a real fair or live stock show is held whorp i>eople come together in friendly rivalry and ex hibit their stock every fall, we find lots of good livestock on the farms in that section. The shires or coun ties of England that developed and gave the world the purebred breeds of cattle, sheep, and hogs developed them largely through their wonder ful shows and In i is each year bring ing the livestock together and poin I wring them to sir who had the best individuals of the breed they were working to develop. we have tlio Hereford cuttle named ileretoid sliire, or as. we would say Hereford e.umty in England where they were developed. We have the Hampshire sheep named lor Hampshire county England where the breed was develop ed, and we have the Hampshire hog developed in the same shire or county. The (liiernsey eow, and Jersey cow were given us by the (luernsey and Jersey Islairils on which they were bred and developed. This good livestock came to Amer ica and it was shown to o|if jieojrfe at the fairs and it made everybody who saw it want good livestock on their faints. So good stock went out over this country on to the farina to take its place in building up better livestock for fanners to use in breed ing, raising, grazing and selling live stock and live^towk products t|mt brought more dollars. And these dol lars have .ilwaivs made a higher stand Did of living, happier homes, good churches, better schools, good roads and. prosjH'rous business for all our ]K>ople in the country and the town alike. The most accurate- census figures available show that Jaeksou county now has farms. On these farms we have (i,W.">l cattle of all kinds; 4,750 hogs; 3,115 sheep; and 48,9HU hens; and less than 1,000 turkovsO This m? ails that we now have less than J cattle; lcfss than 2 hogs; far less than 2 sheep; and less than 20 hens per farm, and not even I tur key for every two farms. Nothing could be more evident than the fae. that right now Jackson county farms need to be restocked with every kind of livestock. The farm income from livestock and jmultry and their pro duets can easily be and must be ten times what it is now. Then we will go forward ten times faster for hav ing better and happier homes, higher standards of living, good roads, schools, .churches, and prosperous business. And hard times or high taxes will not be a problem. Wonderful progress is now being made by our farmers in restocking their farms with all kinds of live stock. There is nothing our farmers, business men, county agent and every body can do to hasten the growing I of lots of livestock on Jackson coun ty farms than to make our coming Livestock and Poultry Show a real success. ^The Sylva' Paperboard Company and Tannery have made it possible for us to have excellent housing sjwee for the livestock and poultry show together and well protected. Our bus iness men have cooperated wonder fully i" financing the :f'iow with attractive cash premiums. And nl iftady 'many of the faijuers have told the various dejurtments of the show that they are showing some good livestock aind poultry. Come along and get busy seeing that you and your section and farm and com munity are represented with some good livestock and poultry in this show. ? > QUALLA Both the Sunday schools at QuaHa 1 are flourishing. i < : Mr. and Mrs. Dewey Hyatt o!
