Senator ( Chester Cogburn, of Canton stated today that he probably ,will not in| troduce the bill that h asbeen re| guested by a large number of citizens !)f Balsam, to cut off upper Scott's Jreek township in Jackson County md annex it to Haywood. He stated | hat there is considerable sentiment llso in Haywood for the proposed : censure, but that lie is telling the { in Waynesville that he will not ' ."Qtroduee the measure in the Senate, i because even if it should pass the it will meet with opposition a the House from the Jackson Repress* tative. He takes the position that here would be little likelihood of the , ; House passing the measure over the ^position of Jackson County and its Representative in the General Assembly. Dan Tompkins, Jackson's Repre.entative, informed Senator Cogburn I a reply lo his question, that he would {< nost certainly oppose the bill, should jj v be introduced, not only in the Senile Committe lo whicn it would be ( i referred, but also in the House of Representatives, in the event the Senate should pass it. He expresses limsclf as being in favor of the Bal;amites being given the road and he school facilities to which they are ;ntitled; but as being loath to give hem up as citizens of Jackson. The op o" the Balsam range, and Balsam Gap are the natural boundaries, and Ihe Jackson representative wants the iinc between Jackson and Haywood to remain where it is, and where it j has been, ever since Jackson county |j, I was formed, nearly a century ago. f j QCALLA j 1 . 1V The Dillsboro Home Demonstration -E Club met with the Qualla Club at if* IIix Mary K u: land's Friday.
