Qffell the non-sensical laws ever
- placed upon the u Statute books of
' North Carolina or of any o her
State, the law which provides that
- successful candidates shall turn in
to the Secretary of State and to
Clerks of the Court statements of
' their campaign expenses surpasses
them all. If these statements af
forded any information that bore the
semblance of accuracy they would be
. Jorthless, but no intelligent man
will suppose for an instant that any
candidate is going to render any ac
count which would bear the test of
any sort of consciencious scrutiny.
The statements are supposed to be
: for the information of the public but
; the public knows about as much
about it when the statements
jnade as the gamins in Hogans Alley
and McFadden's row know about
astrology. The sooner the legisla
: jture can take that asinine legal dis
. pensation off the statute book, so soon
will it relieve itself, the candidates
And the, public generally from the
laughing stock of the earth.
