A Romantic Dream Dis
turbed
A romantic dream was sud
denly terminated one day last
week when it became known
that marriage license had been
issued for a couple to whose
marriage there was some ob
jection.
About the second of Sept
Mr. Wooten, the Register of
Deeds issued license for the
marriage of Mr. Bud Holcomb
of near Chestnut Ridge, and
Miss Carmen Cartright of the
same neighborhood, w ith a re
quest to keep the news from
the paper for the next issue.
We were told of this and
kept it out,for one week but
last week put it in with the
others The Ripple went out
from here Thursday morning
and before night the news had
reached the parents of the
young girl. Miss Cartright
was m school at Boonville.
i but her mother had her
brought home for an explana
tion. The girl says, very
emphatically, that she did not.
promise Mr. Holcomb to be
his bride, and, in fact, was
so convincing in her argument
that her mother let her go
back to Boonville to school
Monday morning.
Some say Mr. Holcomb
was not buying the license
merely on suspicion, while
others say the girl never prom
ised to marry him, while the
fact is nobody knows what
their intention was,
Anyway young Holcomb j
has a set of license on his!
hands which he is unable to
use at present; Miss Cartriglit j
is pursuing her studies in the'
Yadkin Vallejo Institute;!
while her parents are con vine-j
ed, so far as they can be con-;
vinced by young lovers, that!
there is no danger of a Cart-!
right-Holcomb wedding in !
the near future.

Sign Posts On Country
Roads
_ i
At the annual meeting of
the N. C, Good Roads Associ
ation held in Charlotte recent
ly the matter of sign posts on
° . 1 i
country roads was widely dis-1
cussed. It seems that it is tjie j
duty of County Commissioners*1'
to furnish these signs and the
duty of overseers to put them
up and maiitain them.
In this matter, which is a!
sure sign of progressiveness,!
the extreme mountain counties
are far ahead of us. At every !
i
Cross Roads is the sign give
iiig the name of and distance!
to the*prominent places as weii I
as a mile post every mile. This |
is not only an advantage to the j
residents of a county but the
stranger gets a decided advan
tage from it
° i
Very few counties ip thej
state have as few sign posts as |
Yadkin The law m regard
to this, whicli is found in the
Revise! of 1905, Section 2722,
and leads as follows:
Overseers shall cause to be :
setup, at the forks of their!
respective roads, a post or|
posts, with arms pointing the!
way of each road, with plain!
and durable directions to the |
most public places to which I
they lead, and with the num
ber of miles from that place as
near as can be computed; and
every overseer who shall, for
ten days after notice of his ap
pointment, neglect to do so
and to keep the same in re
pair shall forfiet and pay for
every such neglect Len dollars.
Bondi? For Statesville Air
Line Railroad
Yadkin County Townships
Liberty, Boouville and Deep
Creek did their duty towards
voting bonds to the amount of
$90,000, for the Staterville Air
Line Railroad. What more can
we do towards helping build
the road and why not contract
so the road could be built in
12 months instead of 12 years
Is not some person or persons
trying to speculate in the mat
ter instead of trying to build
the road? We have been in
formed that the road could
have been contracted and com,
pleted if stockholders had lei
the contract. The time has
now come for for something tc
i be done and every citizen in

| A CITIZEN,
Sidna Alien and Wesley
Edwards Arrested in
Des Moines Iowa
Des Moines, Sept. 14 —
Sicilia Alien leader of the Hills™
ville Va., Allen gang, and
Wesley Edwaids, his compan
ion, were captured here today
by detectives from Roanoke
Va.
Edwards was captured on a
street car, Allen was caotured
earlier in the day. The love
of Edwards for Miss' Maude
Irola, of Alt. Airy, N. C., lea
to his capture. A visit of Ed
wards to die girl at her home
and the loss of a letter acci
dentally put the detectives on
his trail.
The fugitives had been Des
Moines since last April. Allen
worked as a carpenter and Ed
wards with a city paving gang
under assumed names,
Allen was arrested at his
boarding house. The arrest
was made just after Miss Irola
stepped into the boarding
house to meet Edwards, whom
she expected to marry tonight.
■He was coveued with a revol
ver and did not resist. Miss
Irola arrived this morning un
aware that detectives were fol
lowing her.

WILSON WOULD REPEAL ALL j
PROTECTIVE TARIFF LAWS, j
The following is taken from f
an address delivered by Pro- |
fessor Woodrow Wilson before \
the tariff board in 1882, showing i
hie view then on the quesuon *
of the tariff and the distinct an- |
nouncement of hi a position as J
a free trader, opposed to all J
tariffs excep: merely for the pur
pose of raising revenue:
“But the danger of imposing
protective duties Is that when
the policy is once embarked
upon it cannot be easily receded
from. Protection is nothing
more than a bounty, and when
wo offer bounties to manufactur
ers they will enter into indus
tries and build up interests and
when at a later any we seek to
overthrow this protective tariff
we must hurt somebody and of
course there is objection. They
will say, ‘Thousands of men will
be thrown out of employment
and hundreds of people will lose
their capital.’ This seems very
plausible; but I maintain that
manufacturers are made better
manufacturers whenever they
are thrown upon their own re
sources and left to the natural
competition of trade.”
"Protection also hinders com
merce immensely. The English
people do not send as many *
goods to this country as they
would if the duties were not so
much and in that way there is
a restriction of commerce and
we are building up manufactor
ies here at the expense of com
merce. We are holding our
selves aloof from foreign coun
tries in effect and saying. ' We
are sufficient to ourselves; we
wish to trade, not with England,
but with each other.’ I main
tain that it is not only a per
nicious system, but. a corrupt
.system.
“By Commissioner Garland:
"Q. Are you advocating the re
peal of ali tariff laws?
“A. Of all protective tariff
| laws; of establishing a tariff for
revenue merely. It seems to me
very absurd to maintain that we
shall have free trade between
different portions of this country
and at the same time shut our
selves out from free communica
! tlon with other producing coun
tries of the world. If it is neces
sary to impose restrictive duties
on goods brought from abroad it
would seem to me as a matter
of logic, necessary to Impose
similar restrictions on goods
taken from one state of this
\ Union to another. That follows
j as a necessary consequence; •
there is no escape from it."
