Watch the Crowd
The choice of leaders has always lieen one of the
greatest problems of man. ,
In all ages the same motive has Worked on man
to procure the support of the masses. That motive
has been selfishness.
The devil tempted Adam and Eve and told them
God had lied to them, They believed the devil and
lost their estate. The same devil tempted Christ, and
he said, "Get behind me, Satan." He later said to the
world, "I am the way and the life." The same two
principles are still abroad in the land.
Politicians have ever been pleading their cause too
frequently for selfish purposes.
Tomorrow the people of this state will be faced with
duty, not of whom ye will serve, but with whom
will ye have serve you? Unfortunately, thousands
will see and hear of candidates they have never heard
of before. They will not know the type of men they
are, nor for what they stand. The question is com
ing squarely before us tomorrow. What should we
do?
We should not always listen so much, but rather
watch the crowd. Choose your friends, those who
have stood by and been true to you. Count charac
ter and dependability. If you don't know who you
are voting for, then watch those men and women
whom you are most wilJing to trust to serve you, your
wives and children, for social, educational, religious,
and moral uplift, and vote with- them.
The Same Old Tammany
The same Tammany that has always tried to domi
nate the politics of the United States is still under
fire. And while it is slick enough to slip through a
mighty small crack, it has not been able to convince
the folks that it is not an organization of graft and
deception, which includes everybody in the whole or
ganization, including the honorable mayor and would
be political dictator, Jimmy Walker, a pretty clever
fellow in a way, but more of a gang leader than an
honorable servant of the people.
What the National Democratic Party ought to do
is to remove Tammany from its council table. It
will be stronger alone.

Fountain and the Greensboro News
Nobody has spoken or written quite so drastically
of any candidate as the Greensboro News did in an
editorial against Mr. Fountain Thursday. It sound
ed more like the last bite of a dying serpent than
it did the voice of'a dignified foe.
It is generally considered unfair to hit under the
belt or after the adversary has turned away. Of
course, the Greensboro News put this charge out so
late it will be hard for Fountain to answer.
The genera] impression seems to be, however, that
it will not need Fountain has got
Ehringhaus beaten so badly that nothing the admin
istration can do will help Mr. Ehringhaus very much.
It may be tha't Fountain has "het" Mr. Jeffress,
the principal owner of the News and highway boss,
so hot that, the editorial is only a steam combustion.
Perhaps Fountain's charge that Jeffress is spending
the state's money and using the state's men in trying
to elect Mr. Ehringhaus has burned through his thin
skin and his paper is trying,to get even with him.
One thing Mr. Jeffress has not done and that is he
has not proved the Fountain charge untrue. And
everybody knows the state's money has been used to
try to elect Ehringhaus governor.
Too Much Prejudice and Falsehood
Too much prejudice and falsehoods have worked
their way into the present political struggle, which has,
to 'a great extent, created hatred against the better
class and fostered the interests of the unworthy. For
tunately, we are always blessed by the leadership of
a few men and women we can safely trust.
In our present campaign in this state, we have the
s[>ectacle of leading parts being taken by some of that
class of men who can only thrive in the lower strata
of politics—men who are not trOsted by their own
folks, neither in the moral or business world, who
seem to find it easy to corral the forces that usually >
are moved by prejudices and selfish designs rather
than by the higher ideals of good government and
fair dealings for all the people.
We should not lose sight of the fact that first of all
we should count character rather than prejudices in
selecting our officials.
Two Crimes That Are Close Kin
Sumpsoti Independent.
In the comparison of dastardly acts, that of John
Hughes Curtis, Norfolk ship-builder, in perpetrating
the deliberate hoax upon the Lindbergh family, ranks
a close second to that of the actual kidnapping and
murder of the baby. It matters not what the motive
for putting over the hoax might have been, Curtis is
guilty of an inexcusable act and should be made to
suffer for it.
After admitting that his maneuvers in connection
with the Lindbergh case were faked, Curtis attempted
to place the blame, in part, at least, upon Dean H.'
Dobson-Peacock, his assistant in the baby negotia
tions. The minister has not shown the proper attitude
in the matter, judging from press reports of the pro
cedure. He, too, should be required to make clear
his part in the affair. And if he is found to have been
a willing party to the hoax, then he should be dealt '
with by whatever law he may be reached.
Not only did the part played by Curtis in the matter
serve to obstruct the search for the real kidnappers
and add worry and suspense to the stricken parents
and the world at large, but it cost the government
and Colonel Lindbergh an enormous sum in cash. It
is almost as difficult to conceive of how any sane per- j
son could have perpetrated the hoax as* it is to con- ,
ceive of how the kidnapping and murder could have |
been committed. The two crimes, one or both, bear |
out the old saying that "there are all sorts of people
in the world."
