If the people had had just a few prominent leaders, they would have won the battle. Perhaps if Mr. Mc- Lean's feet had kept warm, he would have won the fight But, for some unknown reason, he had a bad attack of cold fee?, and they never could be warmed again. A lew other' fellows seemed to have been anointed with "Freezone," from the fact that they grew so cold and indifferent. At least one thing has develojied in this turmoil; and that is that the people need to be careful in the selection of men who can cope with the ex|ierts of the interests and who can't be frightened by the wailing of the interests Now- is the time for the Democratic Party to set its compass and (xiint to a fair and just tax law in 1931. 3/y . ■ r Why Women Smoke Dr. J Edgar Park, of Boston, says that women smoke because they want to show they are good sports and are just as free as men, and that they do it as a sort of "inferiority, complex." We are glad to get this modest yiew of the great educator. Our "opinion has heretofore been that women smoked out of a spirit of impudence and bigotry. Just the same cause that starts most young men to drink —-a spirit of bigotry. t Perhaps there may IK* some ignorance both cases. For surely the young man or young wo men who poisons his mind and weakens his body with alcohol or nicotine will so the day, justly lie called a fool Study the Remarkable Values Offered * v * Never before in this town have High-Grade Used Cars been priced as low.

An Even Break Needed We have enough prosperity. The trouble is that it is not evenly distributed. Some are growing gorgeously rich, while others are growing grumblingly poor. The rich are working their minds; the poor are working their bodies. The bodies are producing the wealth and the minds are taking it. The trouble is that the minds of the country are making all the plans for the merchandising, the trans porting, the financing, and the lawmaking of the country. This gives them the advantage in the trans (xirting, manufacturing, merchandising, and financing, and in lawmaking. This process has gone on until the wealth of the country has drained from the mass of people who labor to the few people who think; and we find the wealth and power has drained from the four corners of the country into the reservoirs or financial centers of the country The condition i» just the as when all the rivers and streams of the lsnd run to the ocean, leaving the land thirty, dry, and impover ished, while the ocean is overflowing. The farmers' profits, the merchants' profits, the la-, borers profits, all have been pouring into the coffers of the wealthy until they are bursting with wealth, leaving the jieople poorer each day. All the people who do the work need is an even chance with those who think, the same laws of tax, the same advantages in mrechandising, transporting, and financing, equality in privileges -and no more. Then business will l>e more healthy. Feeding the Goose K -That old goose thal-lays the golden eggs still sets on the nest. The lfgislature was afraid to "shoo" her off. „ The big gang, when they are called on to help carry their part of the country' load, always squawks "Don't kill the goose that lays the golden eggs." The folks have waited long and patiently for some of those gold en eggs, but .so far they have never received any. The golden eggs are always gathered by the fellows who don't want the goose killed. The folks who are dissatisfied are the [>eople who are feeding the goose and gathering no eggs. The to bacco farmers of the East are not only feeding the goose but also the geese and ganders, but they get no golden eggs They are .set in Durham and Win ston-Salem and hatch more geese to eat the fruits of the labor of the farmer and workingman, to lay more golden eggs for the "R.J.K.'s" and "A.T.'s" Is the Roanoke To Be Neglected? According to newspaper re[x>rts, the (government is going to spend, during this year, the sum of $160,- 000 on surveys of what are claimed to be the three principal rivers in North Carolina, ('ape Fear, Neuse, and Tar. We have no objection to the government helping the people along these rivers. But why neg lect the Roanoke, which, with a very small expendi ture, can easily carry boats to Weldon? The same little $3,000 appropriation goes to the Roanoke each year, which means very little help. As to the importance oi_ the rivers of the State, neither the Tar nor the Neuse is in a class with the Roanoke, which has more miles of navigable water than both of them. We need a Roanoke Congressman. THE EN TBRPRIBE WANTS WE ARE NOW PREPARED TO do altering and sewing of all kinds.

Here is your opportuni ty to gain in your yield of tobacco per acre by using the FOWLER CULTIVATOR which gets the dirt from middle of the row and makes a perfect ridge without cutting off your feed roots. It has proved that hilling tobacco in this way has made a gain from $25 to SSO per acre. For you know: When you tide your tobacco the last times the feed roots are cut off, which checks the growth for a few days. During this time new feed roots are formed, which really causes a second growth. This second growth causes your tobac co to grow bony and thin. If the feed roots are not cut off, your tobacco will thicken as it spreads and make a better quality of tobacco. HYMAN WARREN. Agent Robersonville N. C. February 20, lt».
