The University's New President The trustees. In their election of Frank Porter Uiaham to head the University of North Carolina, should IK- commended. Mr. Graham has remained true tu the University and worked hard for its ad vancement. He comes from a recognized family ol educators and, he is familiar with the, needs of the State. It was with modesty that Mr. Graham accept ed the presidency, and in so doing he pledges a sin cerity that, no doubt, will make him a-gowd president. Demand Temperance Teaching The demand now comes for the teaching of tem|)er ance. It is to be admitted that whenever a state at tempts to intrdouce a study of alcohol and narcotics in the schools there is a fight scheduled. In our own State Legislature last year a bill providing a course of study relative to alcohol and narcotics was advanc ed and defeated. Every child should know the effects produced by the use of alcohol, opium and nicotine, that they are a detriment to the organs of the body rather than a stimulant. If the youth could fully understand that the little drink that makes them gay also makes them drunk, :ind that the little tablet easing the pain also wrecks their Ixidies and lives, there would be very few who would follow the drinkers and do|)ers. But with so little being said against liquor and narcotics, tliey blindly follow the howling crowd in their ignorance. The liquor interests have shifted the argument to that point where the youth is led to believe that pro hibition is an encroachment on individual rights; they do*not consider the bodily harm and danger behind the dramster's bottle and the doper's tablet. If every mother in the land would devote a few minutes each day in teaching her child the danger in the use of alcohol, there would be very few drink ers in twenty-five years. Unwise Practices The director of the Izaak Walton League refers to the Department of Conservation and Development as a "political football.'' Certainly there is much truth in that statement, because its employees go through the land telling people how to vote. At the same time the gentleman goes a bit too far when he says that the fish and game laws of the State should.be placed in the hands of the sporstman. With the last statement, very few will agree. To The Voters Of Martin County 1 = •A. • I take this means of thanking the people of Martin County for their friendship and support in the recent primary. And since a second pri mary has been called, I am again asking for your support on July sth. If nominated and elected, I assure the people . * . • .. * that I will give the office my close attention and promise the people the very best service required of the office. ■ ■ Gus Harrison PIItLKN ID CVBTT ru—DAY »» rwiPAV The Tariff Bill's Uutimate Results What will fhe new billion dollar tariff bill do? First, we may reasonably expect a short-lived boom. The l>eneficiaries are likely to loosen up their cash long enough to get the common people in a trading mood. Unless there is some business stimulation, the reapers cannot expect large profits from their in creased protection. For that reason they know they will have to keep enough blood in the business life to sustain trade. A tariff on shoes does the shoemakei no good if |>eople are unable to buy shoes, and the same thing applies to every class of goods in the entire schedule coming under the increased rate. The final result will be entirely different, however, for the trade will lie loaded down with so much tariff tax that it will rapidly grow poorer day by day and the last days will offset the gains recorded in the first. The ultimate result will l)e that the mass of people will pay about one billion dollars each year into the pockets of a few manufacturers. Good Democrats The question of a man's Democracy is only raised ufxin his vote in elections. After then he may vote for the most radical things and still be classed as regular. „ . The vote last Friday on the new tariff bill revealed live Southern Democrats pulling and voting with the most undesirable element of the Republican Party, measured by the Southern standard of Democracy. ' Florida furnished two and Louisiana two. Had these men stood square to the platform of their party, they would have saved each family in this country a tarifl tax of about $40.00 a year. Vet, they are called good Democrats. State Control of Prisoners New business are being advanced daily, and as much as those theories affect economic con ditions, very few objections are entered. We just stand off and view the operations. Hut now comes a suggestion for the State control of all prisoners—a suggestion that is being made in the face of unfav orable rejxjrts coming from many of the State prisons throughout the country. It is |x>ssible that a few prisoners in various coun ties do not receive projier treatment. Judging from various prison re|x>rts, if the State undertakes to con trol all prisoners and in so doing makes as big a mess .if it as it is doing in handling its own prisoners, costs will command a higher |>osition than ever, Tht State loses about as much on each of its pris oners who works for a living in the quarries or farm as the county that cares for its prisoners without even attempting to work them. It is doubtful if a prison board in Raleigh can handle the Martin County pris oners better than the county is handling them at the present time, and the county is merely keeping them confined. If the State board is the lx>ss and sends a man once or twice a year to investigate the conditions, the prisoners would, in a very short time, lose respect for the jailer and disputes his right to govern. This is one of the principal causes for many of the great troubles resulting in many states of the Union in the |K»st. If the State takes over the management of all prisoners, it will simply mean taking'the government but of the hands -if the local people and centralizing it just as the school system is now centralized. The legislature has passed laws, from time to time, governing the violations of matters of public policy and has prescribed the manner in which the violators are to l>e handled. If the legislators have failed to safeguard the rights of prisoners in obtaining humane treatment, then the law makers can pass other laws forcing all |>ersons entrusted with the care of prisoner* to properly handle them. * ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTICE Having qualified as administrator of the estate of Millie Jtespass, deceased, i late of Martin North Carolina, tlii* is to notify all 1 ; persons having claims against the estate of said de ceased to exhibit them to the under signed at his home in \Villiamston, N.
