Hon. 'Kichard I*.

The reserved rijrhts of the States and the liberties of the people aie to be swept away and a consoli dation of an umpire, the will of the wealthv class, is to be substituted.

This means a shortage of nearly $14 000 for Western Carolina Teachers' College. President Hunter states that every means was canvassed as a pos sibility of effecting: the saving; but that the only way was to cut sala ries of teachers and employees, and in addition, several employees have been eliminated, and the work of otliers combined. ' The teachers and employees are nterting the situation in good spirit. CULL0WHEE COLLEGE SUMMER SCH0?L ENROLLS OVER 300 Cullowhee. dune 12?

Simmons, accord ing to the official tabulation of the Mc. Senator Simmons received 254; Bai ley, 2244; and Thomas L lvstep, run ning as a wet got 11 votes in the county. Bailey led Senator Simmons in tTfe State by approximately 70,000 votes. 1.702 preciets from which the vote lias been counted, gave Bailey 197,078 and Simmons 128,081, or a lead for Bailey of (58.997. Bailey strength developed pretty genera Illy throughout the State, he receiving , majorities in more than three-fourths of the counties; but it was the tremendous vote tor him in the 25 mountain counties that swelled the majority to such lai?e pro]K>rtions. l?V?r 0or|>o ration Commissioner, Pell received 1376 votes in Jackson county to (563 for Holloway, a ma jorily of 713 for .Tudgc Pell. RECORDER'S COURT A large number of eases in the Recorder's Court were continued, on Monday,?and other defendants were called and failed. Cases dis|M>sed of Were: (!l<nn Norton, violating prohibi tion laws, plea of guilty, sentenced to serve 4 months, suspended for 12 months on good behavior. Lillic Cabe and Mary Norman, af fray, guilty, prayer for judgment continued Cilbert Moss, violating prohibition law, judgment suspended. R. W. Fawcett, embezz/.Iement, probable cause found, and bond to superior court fixed at $500.00 .Robert Mathis, prohihiton viola tion, prayer for judgment continued. Harley Teague, transporting, 3 mouths, carrying concealed weapons, 2 months. Abe Keener, public drunkenness, six months, capias to issue in 24 hours. Don Williams, drunk, 3 monfhts. Delos Henson, ^prohibition viola tion, prayer for judgment continued. Charley Rhinehart, drunk, prayer for judgment continued to July 14.?. Ambrose Fortner, reckless driving, not guilt v. THE WEEK 0 (By DAN TOM PINS) Mr. Simmons, overwhelmingly de feated by the Democrats in the pri mary, last Saturday, proves himself to be a worthy man, by making the statement that he will abide by the pledge he made wIkcii he entered the primary, ami support Mr. Bailey. The 128,999 to ].'{0,000 men and women who supported Mr. Simmons in the primary, arc also honorable men and women. They too will support Mr. Bailey and the Democratic ticket. Dishonor lies not in defeat; but in jroing into a primary, cither as can didate or voter, and then refusing to abide the result. The men wo men whose candidates failed of nom ination, last Saturday, are men and women of honor. There will be no split in the Democratic party, tliis year, because the losers arc not made of that kind of stuff. Democratic vot ers by the hundreds of thousands flocked to the ])olls on last Saturday, and voted for their choice. They are sportsmen and Democrats all, and the party is now united for the coming conflict. Thomas L. Kstep entered the Dem ocratic primary as a wet. He receiv ed less than 2,000 votes in the en tire State. Mr. Bailey and Senator Simmons, both dry, were given more than 325,000. That should settle the I question, if there ever has been a i question, as to whether or not North , Carolina Democracy is wet or dry. Less than 40,000 votes were cast | in the Republican primary in the State, last Saturday. It is due to indifference of the Republicans as io who their candidates are, or to i lethargy in the party? Either way, i it does not augur well for Republi canism in the State, this year. Senator Moses' comment on the North Carolina primary was that "The Dutch have carried Holland". 1 More than 30 lives lost when a ! steamer jammed into an oil tanker 'in Massachusetts Bay. Another hor ror to add to the long list of trage dies o> thv sea. Miss Elizabeth (lard ner, of Winston-Salem, was among the lost. Prof. Frank P. Graham, ot the chair of history, was elevated to the presidency of the University of North Carolina, the oldest State Universi ty of them all, at the meeting of the Board of Trustees, Monday. Presi dent Graham is a native of the State A group of women calmly knelt prayed, amid tin1 horror ot the sea of burning oil, in the ship collision, Tuesday night. That was probably the most sensible thing; to do under the circumstances. It is sometimes said that "C.od helps those who | help themselves"; but we usually go ' to our Maker when we find ourselves helpless, and our efforts futile, and, really, but for His help, pitiable in deed would be our plight. 0 j The Senate is to ballot on the new tariff bill on Friday the 13th, and, if the bill shall pass, an unlucgy day ' indeed it will he lor the people of America. ! Stocks on the market dropped, on i vesterdav to the lowest level of the BAILEY RECEIVES HUGE MAJORITY J. \V. Bailey received a majority of 19,544 over Senator Simmons in the Tenth Congressional District.

SIMMONb ENDORSES BAILEY Senator Simmons, in a telegram to Col. John D. Lihigston, said: "I have ! no further statement to make, tor j 1 assume the people of the State j know that I will keep the pledge I made when 1 entered the primary, , and support Mr. Bailey". Previously, Col. Langston, the Sim mons campaign manager, had issued a statement in which he pledged hi* enthusiastic support to Mr. Bailey. WEAVER CARRIES COUNTY I v BY A MAJORITY OF 1784 Former Congressman Zcbulon Weaver carried Jackson county by a majority of 1784 over Major Wal lace B. Stone in the Democratic pri | mary, on Saturday. Mr. Weaver, wlio c,arricd every county in the District i by overwhelming majorities and secured the nomination with thous ands of votes to spare, received 2, ; 147 votes in Jackson connty, while I Major Stone was given 363. i | HOOKER TO LIQUIDATE BANK Judge Joseph J. Hooker, Sylva at torney, and the first president of the Tuckaseegee Bank, has been appoint ed by the corporation commission as : liquidating agent to wind up the af fairs of the Tuckaseegee Bank, to collect the assets and pay off the de positors. Tn a statement posted in the win dow of the bank, Mr. Hooker asks the cooperation of its former patrons in listiidatiuv the institution, which closed its doors in April. : year; and a big bank in Florida clos ed its doors. Prosperity! .Tack Ingle, Chicago Tribune re|?rt er, was shot to deatlf by a gangster in a subway station, bacause he i knew too much about ra<*keteers. The | entire press of Chicago and the Xa j tion, in reprisal, has declared war 1 on gangland. A reward of $5o,000 ! has been posted by Chicago newspa ! jiers for evidence to convict the slav er of the reporter; and the entire j city is aroused over gang activities. The jK>lice chief has been told to ?et 'the murderer of Ingle or get out. It the newspapers kpep steady at it, and they usually do, racketeers and gangsters will be driven from the citv. No power can stand against the press and aroused public opinion. Jackson County Official Vote in Primary, June 7, 1930 (Taney Fot1< Dlllsboro PRRCINTS , I I. * ? u t 'i 'c I g 9 ' ? ? I IIS. e S ?
