The Democratic executive com mittee assembled here Saturday with representation from each of the seventeen townships went on record unanimously favoring the selection of county candidates for 1930 in an old-time Democratic convention instead of the primary which has been the method of choosing the ticket for several years past.

Brooks, chairman of the Democratic executive committee for Johnston county, called the meeting which was the first of the 1930 campaign. The entire township committees were invited as well as members of women's organizations in the various town ships, but there were only ten or twelve women present, probably due to the inclement weather. Af ter a few preliminary remarks by Chairman Brooks who stated the purpose of calling the executive committee together, the meeting was thrown open for a discussion as to whether a convention would S Before the discussion got under way a committee was appointed to retire and prepare resolutions in the nature of a platform.

The recommenda tions of this committee which were unanimously adopted were as follows: 1.

That the Democratic party of Johnston county favors the opera tion and maintenance of our county road system by the State Highway commission, thereby re ducing the tax on land now levied for road purposes in Johnston county. 3. That the Democratic party I favors the abolition of the office i of county treasurer of Johnston l^^ounty, and that the different r^banks of Johnston county be | nam£d as depositories or finan cial agents for the public funds upon filing acceptable bonds, thereby eliminating the expenses of operating the office of county, treasurer and effecting a saving i of at least $6,000 annually to the tax payers. 4. That the Democratic party of Johnston county favors the abolition of the effice of county tax collector, and that the duties now performed by the tax collec tor be performed by the sheriff of Johnston county, thereby saving to the tax payers of Johnston county at least $9,000 a year. 5. That the Democratic party is unalterably opposed to issuing further bonds for any purpose whatsoever, except by a direct vote of the majority of the tax payers thereby. 6. That the Democratic party of Johnston county favors levy ing a tax on amusements and luxuries, instead of on land and the necessities in use by the masses of the tax payers. 7.

Mr. Harvey Boney interviewed ! about thirty Johnston county I farmers Saturday to determine | the interest in raising cucumbers and establishing a market here. Mr. Boney advised the farmers against too much acreage, but it is his intention to sign up 100 to 150 farmers, both white and colored, to plant one-half to not more than two acres the limit. The market cannot be a success and buyers cannot be secured unless enough farmers co-operate in the project to put in enough acreage to load cucumbers in car lots. There is no reason why the cucumber industry could not be developed to the point where it will bring in thousands of dol lars to the farmers of Johnston1 county at a time when “finances are tightest” and when needed most in a cotton-tobacco section. Mr. Boney is an experienced cucumber man, coming from Rose Hill, one of the largest strawberry and cucumber growing points in the state and if any one is inter ested in co-operating with him in establishing a cucumber market at Smithfield. he may be seen at Hood Brothers’ drug store this week in regard to seed. etc. Mr. Eoney feels confident that the acreage will be signed up for at least 100 cars, for marketing June 15 to July 15. North Carolina cucumbers sold well last year, returns of more than $400 an acre W'ere received by Rose Hill farmers on 300 acres. If Mr. Boney is successful in sign ing up enough farmers to put in 100 acres or more it is his inten tion to get a shed at the freight station and have all cucumbers properly graded as the trade now is demanding quality. Johnston county climate and soil are well suited for cucumber production.

Parker of Char lotte Named Supreme Court Judge; E. J. Coltrane Heads N C. Education Association. Judge John J. Parker. Repub lican. of Charlotte, was named Friday by Presiden tHoover for the vacancy on the Supreme Court bench created by the death of Justice Edward Terry Sanford of Tennessee, who died a few weeks ago. A sub-committee was selected yesterday to consider his name, and this committee is ex pected to make a report within a few days. Judge Parker was educated at the University of North Carolina and has practiced law since his graduation. In 1922 he left his native town. Monroe, and went to Charlotte to practice his profession. In 1925 he was named to the circuit court of appeals, continuing his home at Charlotte. For several years he has been prominent in politics, having been candidate for gov ernor of North Carolina and for the United States Senate on the Republican ticket. Supt. E. J. Coltrane. of Salis bury. was elected president of the North Carolina Educational asso ciation at its forty-sixth annual session held in Raleigh last week. Dr. John H. Cook, of North Caro lina College for Women, was chosen vice president. Prominent educators from all over the state made addresses. Resolutions were adopted commending the last leg islature for its recognition of the dutv of the state in regard to the longer school term and pledg ing the association to continu ance of its efforts toward the universal eight months term. Gratifying reports were made by the various committees. The as sociation was invited to hold its next meeting in Fayetteville. The last of the oil trials ended Saturday when Edward L. Doheny was found no tguilty of intent to corrupt a cabinet officer. The multi-millionaire was charged with fraudlent motives when in 1921 he gave $$100,000 to Albert B. Falls, then Secretary of the Interior, entrusted with the han dling of naval oil reserve leases. Albert B. Fall was convicted by a jury of accepting $100,000 bribe for the award of a lease of gov ernment oil lands to private en terprise. The question now in the mind of the American public is. who bribed Fall? Rev. Henry Grady Dorsett. of Wake Forest, who has already paid his $50 fee and filed with the state board of elections for the senatorial lace for the pri mary on June 7, refuses to be muzzled. Rev. Mr. Dorsett is a Republican, and if he stands firm in his decision to be in a primary this will be the first time that the Republicans will have used the primary law. A letter to A. M. McWhirter, secretary of the .Republican state executive committee, evoked a strong state ment from Mr. Dorsett, in which he declared again that the peo ple and not the “boss’' shall de cide whether or not he shall be the nominee for the United States Senate.

Parnell and sisters 'HALLET S. WARD ! TALKS TAX LEAGUE (Before Adjournment Com mittee is Named To Represent Johnston in State-wide Meet ing To Be Held in Raleigh On March 31. “Not hirh taxes, not an over | burdened people, not chain stores, but land valuation is what I am talking to you people about.” de clared Hallet S. Ward, of Wash ington. in a speech delivered here Saturday afternoon before the Johnston County Tax league. This is not land valuation year, continued the speaker, but this is revision year, and the people themselves, without any special legislature, can secure lower tax. if they will correct the mistake in land valuation that is on the books. The county commission ers have all of the power that is needed to correct mistakes and there is a mistake as to land valuations. Mr. Ward urged that the people of Johnston county come before the county commis sioners next summer in a body 10.000 strong and demand a cut of 25 per cent in the land valu ations. Then he said get another i 125 per cent cut next year. Mr. Ward declared that the | Democrats, since the primary sys 1 tern went into effect, have failed j to come together in conventions, to discuss public affairs, and they j have turned their government i aloose. They have, like Rip Van j Winkle, been asleep. The speaker refused again to j give a remedy for the situation i when a cut shall have been made. ! not divert the attention of the ' public from his main theme—that ' of land valuation. He would leave the remedy up to the state. It is not the difliculty of pay ing taxes that makes the tax valuation wrong, said Mr. Ward. It is that the value of land has been destroyed by the tax. Farms have lost their value. Tenancy is increasing. The only thing that makes for happiness and pros perity is the owning of one's home, nad the present property valuation is making this difficult. Before the meeting adjourned | Saturday1, a committee was named to represent Johnston county in! a state-wide meeting t obe held! in Raleigh on March 31. The committee includes the follow-1 ing: J. W. Stephenson. J. Rufus Creech, A. M. -Johnson, R. A. | Sanders. J. w. Barnes. Norman I Jones. A. J. Whitley. Jr., W. H. Lassiter, Garland Smith. G. R. Fames, S. V. Strickland. W. P. j cock, M. C.

FIRST SHIPMENT HOGS FROM BENSON Nels Farmers Nearly $2,500; Four More Cars Will Be Shipped in Next 30 or 40 Bays, Benson. Mar. 21—The first shipment of hogs from Benson this spring consisted of 115 head weighing 23,350. or an average of 203 pounds each and sold for 11 cents per pound, netting 10.4 cents per pound, was sold on the Richmond market under the di rection of J. Paul Shaw, teacher of agriculture in the Benson High school. Mr. Shaw states there were 11 farmers shipping at this time and that he was accompanied to Rich mond by Messrs. Hunter Denning, J. R. Johnson, V. C. Jackson, and C. Young, all had hogs in the shipment. These men saw the hogs handled from the time they were unloaded until the killing was finished, having made a very interesting tour of the packing plant. They were especially inter ested to see what the effect of feeding soybeans to shippers is. making the pork soft or oily. These men made a thorough tour of Kingans packing plant. These hogs were shipped under double deck arrangement, thus saving considerable freight ana crowding. The farmers will receive approximately $2,500 for these hogs. Mr. Shaw states that the farmers working in co-operation with him expect to ship about four more cars in the next thirty or forty days. The National ‘Her’. Dear Chicken, unto thee We offer fealty, Thy praises sing; When thou art broiled or fried, Or baked with sage inside, Lo, with what happy pride We crab thy wing. Thou yearnest not to vote, No clu'bs thou dost promote Nor talk of art; No novels dost thou write, Nor frequent shows at night, Thou art a “chased” delight From leg to heart. For breakfast every day Thou dost a fresh egg lay, Smooth as a knob; Others may widely roam, Thou wanderest not from home, | But, scratching up the loam, Stayest on the job. Humble and true art thou, Model for the faithful frau, In spite of scorn. j Thy lord is tough and coarse, Yet thou seekest no divorce, i And with affinities, perforce, iSharest thy corn.

The city girl boarding in tfce country spoke to the farmer about the savage way in which the cow regarded her. “Well,” said the farmer, “it must be on account of that red waist you’re wearing.” “Dear me!’ cried the girl. “O: course, I know it’s terribly out of style, but I had no idea a country cow would notice it.” REV.
