THE JACKSON COUNTY JOURNAL Puplished Weekly by The JACKSON CON NT Y JOURNAL CO. Entered as second class matter at the I'ost Office at Sylva, N. C. DAN TOMPKINS, Editor ]>id anybody ever hear of a tax that wasn't a nuisance? Well, the veterans can ait least look forward to a few square meals in '4o. Alan began falling in the Garden oi Eden. We trust that he has, at hist, struck bottom. We notice that some ' ' far-reaching legislation" reaches as far as the Supremo Court. ? When the common folks begin in ?ogling upon some rights, they call it a swing to the left. The work relief that a lot of folks want is relief from work. The kind most of us need is relief from worn-. The commandment that is oftenest broken, and more people , is the one thit says, "Judge not 4 hut ye b< not judged". Yes, Mr. Roosevelt, we are willing to share the wealth; but we can't speak for Mr. Mellon, Mr. Morgan, or Mr. Rockefeller. Nations are just like folks. You can't come to an amicable understand isg with an enemy without making somebody Use mad. i. V Jobs, whereby they can earn a de cent livlihood, are more important i?-. young men, in our -theme of things, than diplomas and degrees. If Germany and Russia ever tangle up in a war, somebody will either have to invade Poland or s?t a new record in pole vaulting. A man is suing the Western Union, as an informer, on the telegraph end of the chain letter racket. He may get away with a pile of money. Lake Dwi, down, at Greensboro, where couples have been stopped from parking in the moonlight, must not have boon named for Dan Cupid. In carrying out the mandate of the general Assembly, to erect historical markers on the highways, the commis sion should not overlook the Meigs and Freeman line, where it eros.se> No. JO, east of Sylva. - . ? (' \ v. Even inanimate things sometime. turn, like the proverbial worm. Down alt Salisbury, a tree crashed into a truck. The result was the same as !jl it had been the other and usual way t*. round ? the driver was killed. Dan Moore is to offer for solicitor. We don't know who else will mak.' the race; but we do know Dan Moore, and that he is l>oth worthy and emi nently qualified for the position, and we can most cheerfully and heartily recommend .him to the voters of the judicial district. There isn't much need of new con st itu^ribnal lamandnients. 'Just take out those that were inserted, at the close of "the war", by hatred, fanati eisiii, and the hope of political gain, an I the old document will be a pretty good foundation ui>on which to leave the government standing. The state officials are protesting the plans for the expenditure of the federal works fund, on the ground tliat nothing of a permanent nature on n be constructed without a larger allowance for materials. Can't make brick without straw, in North Caro lina, and do a permanent jjob of i!t. Greta Garbo, arriving in her naitive Sweden, asserted that she is not satis fied with her production, "Queen Christina". Well, neither are we, and ihe most unsatisfactory part of the whole performance was the bedroom scene, with Garbo pawing abouft over the furniture and looking like a sick oalf. The semi-annual Confederate pen sion checks have been issnned. Only three coldiers tare left in this county, to draw their checks. They are El bert Watson, Glenvillc, Company B, 25fch North Carolina Regiment; J. M. Bennett, Speedwell, Thomas' Legion; and W. D. Fortner, Cowarts, Comp any E, 39th North Carolina. There are seven Class "A" and twenty-one Class "B" widows in this county, on the pension roll. Down in Pasquotank, where they are about to hold a wdt-dry election, huder authority of the monstrosity act of the dying hours of our late ?General Assembly, -the drys aren't to tostt the law in the courts, as is the ?iase in some othersof the 17 and odd pants of counties, but will take theii o fiances at beating the legal liquori te at the polls. Of course, if the wets should vin, the drys would still have ihcir opportunity for a day in court on the question 'of constitutionality. In other words, the drys will have h rfliance at two shots at the wets for tlieprice of one .If one fails, jhe otlu* might score a hit. SHARING THE WEALTH Mr. Roosevelt's share the wealth j program, as outlined in a special mes sage to tiie Congress, proposes to do it by raising inheritance taxes, in come taxes on incomes over one mil lion dollars, and on corporate incomes, as immediate objectives; and then a constitutional amendment to allow tax ation on incomes from tax free seeuri ?ties. Tax a large hunk away from those that have, and pay it out to ?those who haven't it, is the policy; and it will work, as a sort of mild form of the Mosaic law of the Yeai of Jubilee. The . >de;? of change in the funda mental law, so that tax free securi ties miy be taxed, is interesting. I! is here that many millions of dollars is salted down, in governmental bonds, gool, had and indifferent, and this wealth bears no share in the support of government, municipal, county, State, or National. It is untouchable; bu't there will be a long and bitter tight through every state legislature, before an amendment can be ratified, allowing the tax col lectin- to lay hi< unholy hands rotpon it. By the way, it is interesting to note that sharing the wealth that n few folks got out of the war, and to level up to some degree the difference In'twecn the .soldiers' wages and those of civilian labor in war times, was the basis of the ?argument for adjusted compensation, otherwise and more odi ously known as the bonus; and it was ?the chief argument that the advocate* of immediate payment made. Pay the bonus, said 'they, and the wealth will be, to some degree redistributed, and the money will be put into the chan nels of itrade in every corner of the land. THAT $50,000,000 It is stated that North Carolina's allotment of the federal relief fluids will approximate $50,000. It occurs to us that this is exactly the amount that the State started with in building our highway system, that has now practically covered every important highway in North Carolina, 1(M) excepted. This brings along a line of reasoning It is possible, and more than possible, that the expenditure of vast sums of money by states, coun ties and municipalities, back in the 20 's, was largely responsible for the apparent measure of prosperity that the country enjoyed in those days, despite the economic system of high tariffs, governmental favoritism and such things, under which we were op erating. Thib being true, it is reasonable that like expenditures, this time by the federal government, should have the same effect, at least for the itimc during which Ut is being spent, land a while thereafter. While we were sell ing bonds and spending the money in North Carolina, most of the people were prosperous. When the day cairn that the interest and principal began to oomc due and payable, there was n different story. This time, however, wfoen pay day cornea. North Carolina will have to pay little of it. except such as she gathers from the four cor ners of the earth, as she sells cigar ettes, tobacco, smoking and chewing, snuff and the like. Maybe, on ithat basis, we can spend ourselves rich. Let us hope so. HOW COME IT WA8 HELD UP? Wie don't know whait it is all about; but it seems strange that a permit from Mr. Hopkins, Mr. Iekes, Mr. Collier, Mr. Roosevelt, or some of the underlings, of whom there are not a few, is necessary before the memo rial t>o the Cherokee Indians of the Confederacy can be erected at the Council House of the Eastern Band of Cherokees. As we hear the story, the people at Cherokee, including Dr. Foght, the Indian Agent, have been most co-operative; and of course there would be no objection from the Tribal Council Chief Jarrett Blythc, or the members of the tribe, since practically every Indian in the nation ib a descendant of a Confederate vet eran, ninety per cent of the men of the nation having volunteered and bar ing done valiant serviee in protecting I tliis region from raiders coming over the Smokies from Tennessee. But it - apparent thai somebody threw a monkey wrench into the machinery. ' l'edbaps it was one of the underlings vi the Bureau of Indian affairs, and tlie matter can be amicably arranged.) The movemeuit to erect 'the marker' at Cherokee, by the United Daughters or' the Confederasy of ihe First Nortn ^ Carolina Districrt is? a belated, but ; grateful gesture of recognition of the j n.Lhereiice of the Eastern Band of ( herokees 'to the State of N'orht Caro lina during '.the War Between the States. It is an interesting ^jant of the local history that should by all means be preserved in bronze. It is hoi?ed that the whole maltter , j can be adjusted without delay or un- . due hard-feelings ; but the jroblie i3 , certainly entitled to an explainatiou J as to why any hitch developed, and ; as to who threw the inonkey-wrench. ! and why il was thrown with such i suddenness. These are Noitth Carolina Indian-':. The people who are erecting the mark er are North Carolina folks; and the memorial is to be placed on North Carolina soli, commemorating inter- ; ?sting North Carolina history. Just what ooneera it oould possibly be of i anyone else, we do not even venture an opinion, and cannot possibly see. A. M.
