JA0X80N COUNTY JOURNAL ( Published Weekly By Tho JACKSON COUNTY JOURNAL CO. En tared ns second class mutter ul tli o Foab Office at Sylvu, N. C. DAN TOMPKINS, Editor ?As we understand it, -the tobacco growers hi*" trying to smoke Vm out instead of just chewing I he rug. The currcncy litis not hen inflated ; hut many of us arc up in the air re* (raiding what lo u&e for money. We niidersliind that North Curo linn hub been having pains in its tobncco belt. A headline s?ys that "Creditors Ask Buncombe County For $f>2f>,00U ' \ Yes, but asking is oue thing and get ting is something else. New York Stock Kxchange, the gretest caiebling hell in the world, plumb bluffed the city out of pay ment of the tnx as ordained. There's a tip for the rest of us; only we don't happen to be as important as Willi Street.

Hut it is to he remembered that it is iu such cities as Asheville and Greens boro that they have had better fa cilities for educating their children than the ivst of us could afford, tax ourselves never so high. ? \ The newspaper headlines, a few days ago, announced 5.000 dead in the great storm that struck Tam pico. Today the story says that 80 are known to have lost their lives. This is usual in great disasters, that they are at first, exaggerated. Some times if is the other way around, and the honor grows as the details are learned; but the exaggeration and then miuiinigatiou are the usual. So it is with most of the things that we wovry etoout. At first they win hip to us ? then, when we kf.o'sr the whole truth, they are smaller, and the tii.ie comes to all of us, here or there, when we find that the tliiu .?;s that have given us the great est concern, me in iraterial, after all. and the things n)>out which we give little thought, are the tilings that really count. LOVE'S CHAPEL HAS A FAIR ?The editor took ? K>ok in at the Lovcdalc Community Fair, last Sat urday, ? and was so charmed that he went back again to have another look. It was a delightful fair in a de lightful community. Those folks out Love's Chapel way are really doing tilings.

A live community club, with wid"-n-wa*p leaders, such as is tin eas.- at Lore's Chapel, in every com munity in the comity, would effect an economic revolution in Jackson. The Journal wishes that every com munity could have visited the Loves Chajwl fair. Love's Chape), the Hani blil'g secli-'il. ;iad other live <on iiui:: i tics are leading the way to a more |"wp'?soi'?; <'nv in Jackson co-.'.nty. ! Our hat is off to the community fair. May its trihe increase. Thomas Pi ice, GO-year old retired railway executive, was slain while tak iug a horseback ride with two coin-, panions, near his lodge on li s large estate, on Liekstone Bald, across in Haywood, Sunday afternoon. Dewey Potter, Clarence Potter, Wayne Pot ter, brothers, and Eric Lcdford, a cousin, are being held in Haywood jail, chavjpid with the murder. The Potters arc well known in parts of Jaensou, having lived on Caney Fork for some yearn, with their futher, a local Methodist preacher, though they are nulives ol' Georgia. Accoiding to newspaper reports, the whole mailer steins to have grown out of one of the Potters having been tried, in a justice of J lie peace court in Waynes ville on a (barge of trespass on the i V , Price estate. The Pollers clamed to have control of the Hig Hidge M lie property, adjoining Price's hoiindarv, and it was on the mine land that Price was slain. A preliminary hear ing is being held in Waynesxille to day. The , Journal knows .nothing ol the facts thai may be disclosed cou ce riling the slaving of Price; hut we do know that human life is entirely too cheap; that there have bee.ii too many killings of late; that the record along this line, in our Western conn tics is not good; and that it is most regrettable that a story should go out that an out-lander has been way laid and killed in our mountains. Tin lives and property of visitors have always been sacred in our mountains: end we have a most enviable record along this line. The Asheville papers made much ol' the fact that the mci j charged with the slaving of Prie?1 are /iJative to our North Carolina mountains. boloney Thero is a great tlcnl of pothei, down east .iibout the school commis sion's ruling that children who live wit hin two miles of a school slinll not ho transported in the buses. The com mission passes the buck to tiie (lener ii | Assembly, saying that a clause in tlie school machinery net tieil the com mission's hands. Brantley Wimble, i one of Wake's repres<\n'a fives, coun ters hv saying tlmt the Assemblv did no such thing, ami had no. such itilcn ! t ion. Ife I'nnvs the law ?-.? 'em. The! Act really saivs: ''In all districts i where transportation i> provided, pro- ! vision shall ho made for t transport- 1 ing all ehildrin living more that two miles from the school huilding bv way ; of the nearest traveled route; and tin- | less road conditions or other reas- 1 oils make it inadvisable buses shall | be routed so as to get within one and J one half miles of all children entitled to transportation in said districts". So, we see that what Hie (toneral As sembly really d?d was to make it mandatory upon the commission to furnish transportation to all child ren living more than two miles from the school, to so route buses as to bring them within a mile and a half of all children, when possible, and did not forbid the transportation of any child, no matter where he hap pens to live. .Just how any reasonable man or commission could arrive at such a construction as has been put on the act. i.-: beyond our un.drcsta.ud inic. The truth is that school author ities of the State were opposed to the adaption of the present school policy of the State, in furnishing equal advantages to all North Caro lina children, and it is begiiviing to look very much as if -somebody is conspir n^ to make the school machiu cry act unworkable and uii|?opular, with the hope of the State returning to the old, pnlch-work, crazv-quilt, ?Tab-bag system that was in effect prior to the last (toneral Asesinbly, and. which levied a heavy burden of taxation ujion the farrtv and home owners of the State, to such an ex tent thatrit had become confiscatory, in literally thousands of instances. C 1 Xowspapers and tr.lkcrs are takji^th? position tbiK r. is dangerous for the children to walk to school, v.*h'eh may be so; hut, we have noticed about several inslaW'cs ot' d. nlli nnd injury to ehildivn .on tlu-ir way to 0i- from school, this y in\ and cwi not recall n single one "'here 1 he child was walking 10 school. Haclj instance has been wheiv the child was either a wait inj; a bus or had just fatten off the bin. Hnt that is beside the question we were discussing, wh'ch was that the General Assembly did not loibid thi? bus stopping for and transj>orti.n? children, who Jive with in two miles of the building, to or from seho.d.
