Brurnmit Attacks Hoo ver Prosperity W jlEK By WEEK (By DAN TOMPKINS) The Nyc Committee from tin* United States Senate, to investigate rumors of irregularities, large ex penditures (?r slush funds 1'ioiu without tlu* State,' and wholesale <*>rni| Jion in rounection with the Democi iitie prima it in June, has eotnc, held hearings in Raleigh and in Asheville, and lias gone. The committee, composed oi two Hepub licans and on<> iH'iiuwrat, stated that there was absolutely nothing to the eharges that large amounts of lutside money was expended, and that the refreshing nature of the campaii-u in this State, as compared with those in other states that had been investigated, was noticeable. Thus the committee, instead of doing injury l<> the Democratic party in North Carolina, as had been hoped ">y those invisible forces that set Oame Kiunor to work, has given tl party a clean slate, and compliment ed it upon the fairness ot the elec tion. It i?; easy to start rumors; but there is not always basis in fact for them. .Mr. Dwight W. Morrow, Rcpubli ean-Wet candidate for the Senate, up in New Jersey, states that he is not and will not be a candidate for the presidency. Perhaps that's the j reason he was so frank in giving his opinion on prohibiton. The president of Cuba has forbid den puhlic gatherings until after the election.. That may prevent campaign disturbances down there, but it wont insure a lair election.

Brummitt, at i tacked the record of the Republican party and placed the blame lor the present depression upon the tantt, and upon the encouragement ot stock market sjiecu alion by President Coolidgc and Mr. Mellon. As a large part Vol" his audience was composed of college, students, Mr. Brummitt went into a lengthy and exhaustive discussion o I the dii terences be tween the Democratic and Repub i can parties, and stated that the Re publican party is the party oi th favored classes, while the Deiuocrat ? ic party offers equal rights to all and special privilege to none. I In reply to Republican speakers regarding taxation, he stated that North Carolina is not oniy one ot Ilk' four states that does not collect a direct tax from any property in the State; but that the State gov ernment collects its taxes liom in comes, franchises and such sources, all of which lie sated is Democratic i legislation, and sends millions ot-it back to the counties to be used foi 1 maintenance of public schools and of the' county roads. It there has been any tax reduction in Jackson Comity in recent years, said Mr. i H.u iimitt, it has been due to 1). m-j 1 erratic effort' in the legislature an<i not to the l-?cal county ; ovcrnment He stated that the State sent tc Jackson county, in road and school equalization filnds, last year, moie than '$70,000.00. to raise which, had it not been for the action of the Dem ocratic legislature, would have nec essitated an additional 05c on th< $100 valuation in this county in di rect taxes upon the property of the people. ^ Mr. Drnmin.lt was introduced by A. Hall Johnson, campaign manager for Zclmlon Weaver, who said that if the people want the road paved to Cullowhee, and additional appropna-j lions for the College, that they should send Mrs. McKee to the sen-1 j ate ami Mr. Cox to the house. j lie reeommended .lolin Maney to the people, as a man whom he had known for many years, and found to be a man of sterling worth. Me stated 'that Ze'oulon Weaver is man who has proved his worth to the people, and his friendship for the veterans of the World War, and their dependents, ? and attacked the j record of Brownlow Jackson, as the ' leader of a Postoffiee ring, around (be Federal building in Ashevillc. "Brownlow Jackson was appointed Cntfed States marshal nine years ago. His salary has been raised twice land now he gets $4,800 a year and bis term won't expire until the Hoover administration expires. Now, with his sturdy right hand, he is grasping the teat that makes him lat and reaching with the other hand for the teat that makes him latter by paying $10,000. He's making a miss there: he'll "never touch it. "But that isn't the start ot what the postoffiee ring is getting away with. Brownlow Jackson has two .boys. When Dan Hill needs help at 'a high price at the postoffiee h< i sends out and gets Brownlow Jack son's oldest hoy to do that einer geney work, Jackson appoints all dep ntv marshals and bailifls. Last \eai lie appointed bis 10 year-old boy to be a bailiff in United States court and this boy served his country nobly and well at the price of $5 a LIVE AT HOME - With the election ot" Dr. li. T. Hunter as president, witii authority to appoint a committee to work out plans tor a permanent Live-al Home organization for Western North Car olina, the meeting, held at W estern Carolina Teachers College, ami com lH>sed ol' leading men from ail bus inesses and professions in Western North Carolina came to a close, Tuesday, after having been in ses sion for two days. Mr. George Hoss, superintendent of the State-owned farms, brought greetings from the Governor,' and outlined the program from his view point. Attorney General Dennis G. Brummitt addressed the meet in; ami cited North Carolina progress for the past 75 years. Mr. Bonner Ray, Wavnesville mer chant, gave his views as a merchant, 011 cooperation between merchants, farmers, manufacturers and jobbers, in placing North Carolina product.-; 011 North Carolina 'markets. Mr. C. W; Teague, Macon county master farmer, led a discussion into which merchants, farmers and oth ers entered. At the dinner, Tuesday evening, Mrs. E. L. McKee discussed the live at home idea from the stand point of the homemakers- -the mothers. The live-at home din; er was pre par^d entirely of North Carolina products, most of which were raised in Jackson county. On Tuesday morning the Training School gave a program which put before'the meeting the Western North Carolina products and their value. A I ter another round table dis cussion, President .1. E. Calfee of Asheville Noitnal School delivered an address 011 "The Relation of the Live At Home Idea <to Education.' He stated that our educational sys tem should teach us the art of how to live at home. The key note of the conference was that our 'Noilh Carolina In dustries are not cultivating the Nort1 Carolina market. We are paying freight and commissions on mer chandise and farm products brought | from other sections of the country, when we can get the same things ot better quality at home, for less money. Another matter that was stressed is that the farmers have got to learn to meet competition with quality' products, properly graded and pre pared for the market. (lay. T just wonder how many boys toiling their way through college would have been helped by getting work in the postoilice. From the doors of how many homes?homes of Republican and Democratic wid ows?would $."> a day for being bail iff, have driven the wolf away? "Still, that isn't all.

Privett and Had ley Brown, tried on a charge of manslaughter, in connection with the burning to death of Mrs. Brown, under an over turned automobile, in Canada town ship, a few weens ago, were found not guilty by the jury. The state had sought to show that the two men, one the husband of the dead woman, had been drinking, or that Privett, the driver, had been drink-, ing and that this was the cause of the death of the woman; but the jury took the other view of the mat ter, and the two men, whose homes arc in Ninety-six, South Carolina, were acquitted.
