Around Jerusalem, the Arabs no longer i'old their tents and silently ateal away. saute letter, and many Jackson county farmers have found that' the one brings the other. ^ ' . "$150,000 In Jewels Stolen From Ho: e ot Democratic Leader". Won der who was visiting him. Surely nO Democrat has that much wealth. The governor of Tennessee appoint ed William E. Brock to the United States Senate. The governor must be of the opinion that the senate needs sweetening. t ? i \ America is a nation that recogniz es all vocations ? a soldier dies, and he is succeeded in the United States senate by a manufacturer of confec tioneries. Mark another advance for science. They now have a hen that has no wings, up in New York. Now for one without backs and legs, and the board in? house problem will be solved. Checks and chickens begin with the Both General Tyson and his suc cessor in the senate, Mr. Brock, are native North Carolinians, these Tar-heels have a way ot amounting to something, even when they leave home President Hoover is to launch a movement to establish a school and do away with illiteracy in the Virgin ia mountains. It' he is as suc<K.*ssful in abolishing ignorance in Virgina as he has been in abolishing poverty in the country, we will expect every in habitant of our neighbor State to the north to be able to read Sanskript in a fortnight. * i ? -i SIMMONS GOES DEMOCRATIC Senator F. M. Simmons has gone democratic. The papers tell us that thf Senator is to lead the fight against the tariff bil as passed by the house and agreed upon by the Republican members oof .the senute committee. Time was when the announcement that Senator Simmons had gone demo cratic would have caused no stir in the political waters of North Carolina The announce inept now, however, to our n:ind, brings about & deal of complication in the State. A few moons back the Republicans ol North Carolina would throw theirj hats into the air and yell themselves huaise every time a spell-binder men-, tioued the name of Simmons. To the Republican mind, a few months ago,' Sjutftor Simmons was the one great j a;>o$tle of pureness-of-heart in all Turheelia. Now he appears in the role of the |p'tt|?r of the forces that oppose the p..iu-in-heart. The complication arises as to where the new-found friends of the Senator will placc their allegiance. 'Will they follow their Apostle in hid attack upon the worshippers of the qacred co# of protective tariff tOr will they align then selves with the leaders of 1' pi.blieanism in the senate f It has been strongly hinted that if Senator Simmons ^should be defeated in a Democratic primary, that the li publicans would insist upon send ing him beak to the Senate as an in dependent. What, now would it avail then to return to the Senate the main thorn-in- the- flesh of the hig protec tionists? It might break up, to some extent, the Democratic organization in North Carolina; but surely a high er motive than that actuates the party ( The Senator is e&pable ?f making a superb fight on the tarftf matter. It J here that he i% at hotce, more than ? in retigiohw-polities. Will the fact that 'he is to carry on the attacks against tlvo highest tariff in tke history of the Union w to heal the wounds left' A* ranks of the Democracy of North Carolina, and will the ating of the spectacle of the Senior Senator fighting on the other side, a few months -ago be soothed with the pres ent salve f Or will the regular Demo crats remember that the man who so ardently preached party regularity, desert e^ the ship in the time of great needf Perhaps the present regularity of the Senator will prevent his having opposition in the primary next spring, ^ ) and perhaps it wont. p Either way, ft is a complication. There aye numerous Democrat# yho t V do not want a primay fight between' Mr. Simmons and somebody. On the other hand, there are numerous Demo crats who will not be satisfied unless they are given an opportunity to vote against the Senator in a primary of their own party. Many of them, if they are not given such an opportun ity, will take it in the general election Alto igether, the expeetecTannounce- j ment that Mr. "Simmons has gone Democratic again will cause a lot of. political figuring, especially among the would be candidates for Mr. Sim mons' toga. THE LABOR TROUBLES It is a matter of great regret to every patriotic North Carolininau that the soiled linen of our labor dis putes is being laundered before the eyes of the world. Within recent years our State has( been the recipient of much favorable publicity, all of ) which was well merited. We are now coming into ouv share of noteriety, lind it should very great-, lv concern us as to whether or not * t that, too is merited. ? We have done iruch in North"Car-( olina, in fact we have accomplished ( wonders j but it may be that we have builded so rapidly that our structure has become somewhat lopsided. It may be that D. A. Tompkins and the others ^ who preached an industrialism in the State, did their work too well, and that we have accepted the advantag es of an industrialism, without giving heed to the dangers of such a civil iiation, and intrenching ourselves in our position, as we went along. May be we have not paid enough attention to humanitarianism. Most reforms that are just come in the process of economic evolution,' and would come without agitation and upheaval. J If the present disturbances serve any good purpose, either to labor , or to capital, or to the State, which is doubtful, they will direct the at tention of the thinking people of the State to a study of the problems that industrialism must of necessity bring to a peoplejNind the thought ot houest North Caralinians, when right ly brought to bear upon it, can, solve any problem. One trouble may be that too many |tnills are owned and operated by foreign capital, which does i\pt un derstand our people. We do. not be lieve that any serious defections will arise between North Carolina employ ers and North Carolina employees. On the other hand, it is just as probable that much of the trouble is brought about by imported agitators of trouble. Why not both sides agree for the Governor of North Carolina to ap point a commission of North Caro linians, in whom every body in the State has confidence, let the com mission go into all the ramifications of the situation, and lay before the j people a foundation upon which we j can build in fairness to both those who contribute their labor, and those who furnish the capital t Either side that would dare to refuse to abide by the decision of such a commission tfould be doomed to defeat, because that sic|e would have to reckon with public opinion, which, after, all is the most powerful factor in the settlement of such dis putes. W$ should dig down through the muck of the present situation, and find solid rock upon which to build our economic structure. We can think of no better way than that suggested. It is time for North Carolina to take firm bold upon the situation, j . I AUGUST HONOR ROLL? ADDIE Sevwith Grade: Edna Hoyle, May ire Parris, Richard Co^dill, Paul Gneii, Floyd Beck, Alvin Cogdill.
