2i;g l. .'l interview with W. S. Price,
Jt , : epresentative of the News was:
ir.o "l that he is absolutely a
g:'ir..r keeping restaurants, garage
O'" f-.c fountains open on Sunday, or
Any t 'irr business.
"el r . Price is not' opposed to r-'Mnj;
r.'edicin-. or absolute necessities uch
as meals at certain hours, ete , but
be is against selling soda fountain
dtinks, ice cream, gasoline, etc.
Mr. Price was nominated on the
Democratic ticket for alderman at
the recent primary.
MARKING THE STREETS
' We lfnow that the aldermen and
street superintendents have much to
do; but it would only take a little
paint, a little elbow grease and a
m.uker to mark off the center of
jts. If each
r.ced off, more
n the center
is now, they
hich way. It
DiUch corwding
f of police much
It is done in aTl
-to-date towns. Why not do it
is week.
DESTROYING WHISKEY
It has been the custom of the local
rohibition agents lately to pour out
onfiscated liquor on Main Street.
We were astounded to see several
scgTo boys crawling in the gutter
nd lapping up this filthy bug-juice.
i'he sight was nausuating to say the
. a. t. The liquor was filthy to begin
with and after being poured out in
front of Commissioner Hampton's
lore ran down the street through all
he accumulated dirt and was lap
vd up by these miserable boys in
!i.:,t of Bagwell's store.
One of the negroes, Fred Jones,
.ot drunk from the effects and was
lined $10.00 by Mayor Mitchell,
'.oilier nej'ro. Buddy i'alton. icfl
town.
1'oir ou the liquor, but do it some
place besides Main Street. It not
nly creates a bad odor all over town
but shows bad taste upon the part of
those practising this habit. The folks
:.re with all officers in enforcing the
law, but they are not at all interest
ed in having aiiv of them show off.
TAKING CARE OF THE FUTURE
Now is the proper time for tin
:own authorities to prenniv the c .;
t'.t r of Cahiwe'.l and Main for the fu
ture traffic.
This corner is one of the main
t heroughfap's of Brevard and i too
.:arrow at the present time.
As the automobile has conn.' to stay
:uid as the years roil by and the city
.'.ro-.-s there will naturally be mere
coiigested traffic at this corner.
It would be a wi e move, am;
would receive the endorsement of all
fair-minded citizens who have the
future progress of Brevard at heart,
for the town authorities to buy a
trip of 'and off the Ashworth-Silver--ti-en
lot at this coiner before any
bricks or foundation are laid. At
least twenty feet would be ne.'essary
and would certainly improve this
corner Do it now, whi
ijl.
th
nieii a good opportunity.
THE OFFICE OF ALDERMEN:
Last week the Brevard. New.s. in
in editorial conveyed the impression
hat the three members of the old
board were elected on account of De
ng coat tail swingers or at lea-t that
it was due to the popularity of Mr.
Ci. E.Lathrop. Clerk and Trcasiwr of
he Town of Brevard.
As we have said before: the ques
tion of the clerk should not have en
tered into the controversy an I al-
i:oagh it is pretty
well u::de
I,.,-.
,toou
hat Mr. Lathrop's popularity i -rtain
y had something to do with tie- hirer
vote cast for the members of tno old
.'oard ; at the same time, in ail u-.ti.-e
., Messrs. R. II. Zachavy. J. K. V.'at-r-,
en j II. R. Walker, th" Nov.: v. i-,h
es t retract an impressio;- -,'
r.ot maliciously intend to convey.
All the above named gentu n.en
ha'-'e many friends and certainly can
stand on their own merits uitheut
having to receive any votes given on
account of the popularity of a.- - (.it.
The Brevard News' editor i- in a
position to know that one of t;e al-
Icrmen wore out enough shoe leath
er working- for the interest of the
'own to doubie the twenty-four doi-
ars per year that he received from
he town.
Who knows but that all five rnigh'
lave received a greater vote if their
friends had not raised the clerk's offi--e
issue, or if they had simply fjen
out up by their friends on acci-ani
the record they have made as al
iermen or upon their own merit?
There is very little honor, much
