Beer will do for the foreign element of more rrciitt extraction; but not for your old American, whose ancestors drank Jamaea-rum and whiskey.

HISTORY OF A CRIME A filling station operator was shot to (bath, alter the manner of gang ster rubbers, as he wilt about his j business, ovc-i ill Ashevilie. There was l ji hue and c;y. Hiis Langley tvas ar rested by police, ni?il the court;;, eonvic-ied ol nainier iii ihe first d; gu-c, and s iitciieed io be elect i?i euted. ft ? was ;.o Kalcigh and jp'aced in '>bath row." His attorneys feumi something wrong \\ ?' h I !??? s -n i fencing of their client, some techni cality. The supn me court upheld th ir view of it, and he was brought back ito Ashevilie and resentenced. The | judge, Hie solicitor, and others b'-yan to have, it they didut. ahvadv have, grave doubts .)T Ihe guilt of young 1 angley. A petition for a pardon was prepared, l-'divin Cill, pardon cohi j missioiicr w :ii. into the facts, and now, upon bis recommendation, tiov crnor Khr'nghaus has ? eo?!inmled to lift" iiiiprisomii'-Mt. Son e day he will j probably be a free man. Tin* (|iiestio!i that aris??< is this: If he is not guilty, h;> should be given comphte pardon. If he is guilty, he should have 'yen electrocuted; but how about the. real murderers The blood of the young man cries from the ground. His widow is without a hit . hand. His children are fatherless. The pence and dignity of tly> Stat*1 were wantonly violated. If the Ashe vi'lc and BiiiicoiuIm' county police irrt' the wrong man and got him convicted, how about the real murdcivrs? Is North Carolina to allow the method ol the gangsters to be employed against her peaceful citizens in our mountain city, and allow the evil dcyrs to get awav with it? . ROOSEVELT? GREAT PHYSIOIAN Congressman It. L. (Farmer Rob) Dough ton, iu an interview with lb Stanley News and Press, describes the President as "A great physician," and says: "President Roosevelt is the great est- physician the country has ever had. When ho w(.nt into office the country was mighty sick. Iler blood was thin and her blood pressure was low, but Mr. Roosevelt began giving her treatments and the response has bec.n very gratifying. "Revolutionary legislation had to be enacted, for the malady with which the country was suffering was n serious one. Old remulit's were a'l risjht years aj*o, but new legislation and a new philosophy was necessary to meet new conditions."' I Mr. Pouu'hton believes that the nalional recovery program will hp a birr success, and he .cays that he has already noted ireaUv improved business conditions in this state. The people of North ?Carolina have a great deal of confidence ?n ^ai mer Rr:b, and his statement wi'l be read with interest, and will arouse new hope for a bright future.

Dear Editor: It is my opinion that I ho greatest drawback to regular and well-attend 0(1 church functions i.n Jackson coun ty during the suR.niertimo arc grave yard decorations, family reunions, and all those other varuuis and sun dry popular affairs that might prop erly he listed under thy general term of 4'big dinners." Sucfc affairs are getting to he over advertised, over-emphasized, and in every way completely overdone. Of eours?, T guess there is nothing that can he done about it so long as ive have the idea that the host way to honor the dead is to tramp chick en hones over their graves and that (lie best way to nourish lovingkind :i."ss within a family group is to get a part of its members together and give them a chance to spend a whole day ?rossipi.ug about the part not in at tendance. Well, maybe it' a pretty good idea after all. "Dinner on the ground" does sound more comfortable to the internal regions than "dinner at home." Of course, the big idea after a'l in these graveyard affairs is hon oring the dead, Oven if wo do employ sotre rather roundabout and peculiar methods in doing so. One or two side shows couldn't do much harm. Every body knows that dear old d arl-and gone Grandpap wouldn't want a fel low to visit his grave and go away hungry. ITiHisml TlVnson.
