FRIDAY, May 80th, 1913 Law Enforcement r Wc have quoted in another place an editorial from the Jour nal of Knoxville as to where the responsibility for lax enforce inent lies. We cannot blame the officers of our County for not en forcing the laws if wo do not up hold them and break the silence . which holds so, many, of us and tell of the evil and what we know about it. It is necessary that the good citizens of the town help In every way. If, one knows that whiskey is being 'sold and who is doing it, he should tell the officer because' it is the citi zens duty to help. If gambling is done put a stop to it by in forming. It the other loathsome vice is we should stamp it out and the citizen owes it to his family, the good name of the lown and to his God to put an end to it. It is said that the News-Kecord is hurting the town Does it hurt tlie body to cut out and abscess a diseased arm, a bone something that is hurt ing the body?. Does it hurt a town to cub out rum dice and vice? The Bible condemns it the church condemns these things why should not a paper seeking to build up ' a country condemn what has destroyed jnany a nation, let alone a town. It is not because we are a preac her alone that we condemn nor are we alone in striving to make our town what, it should be New York is doing it and no one claims that Wm. Rockfeller Jr., is trying to kill Nw York be cause he is fighting these things Atlanta is .doing it and the people glory in it except the class that get , gain . out of it Chicago is looking . into it and svery one praises the commission. Asheville throughr-Judge Adams Is striving t get a better tone to the city the world demands it' and because a loterie of persons desire it is no reason why we should let up on it., ' Since we have written these articles many persons have come to U9 and said that the articles were not strong enough and we are proud to have so many up hold us. ' " ,. The editor through many years has been bn the unpopular " side eighteen years as a pro. testant in a hostile country has hardened him to censure, colum- ing and persecution but in every case where such was practiced morality and truth have conque red and evil has been routed. We have found always, ' that justice ; nnd right will prevail and the un popular side win9 out and be t omes the popular. . . ; Evil always cries out when hurt and it is the duty of right 10 strive to conquer. T . We are sure of one thing that nil right thinking people should hide with us. If we have said , . . ... . I.I. .1. . some tiungs 11 nas oeen wiui me desire to help. ' - The LID is down as to receipts : rf liciuor at the. station but it is received, evidently otherwise Jajubling has ceased in one place JtvOiay be continuing in anoth t who knows? Since our article 1 he other effrontery has not been m srlowins we trust all these may stop. In writing these, articles we have not accused an officer of the town. They met these con litions when they entered office u'lionlv r-': they strive to f !iin i) ' ,. i,t it is up to the iilzors o help put our town on :i .'!).! pure moral plane that will ' i: ; ! , ;i;r ! morally as Civic improvement. There is not to be found any where a town that naturally is more beautiful than our town of Marshall. . However tho' nature has endowed us above tlie ma ioritv of places still the hand of man has not kept pace with the work of nature and what has been given us us has not been k e i) t' up Marshall deserves a better make up and the citizens should organize a civic league for the beautifying of the town. Visitors admire the hills and streets but w look upon the nn graceful unbeautiful things and the condition of lots and streets Ptp. Could the crood ladies not organize a civic league , for beau tifying the town. Thpn indeed will nature and man vie with each other Tin add intr new beauty. If man will but tempt nature she wi'.J respond beyond his hope. "Enforce The Laws.' 1 officers. It their bestto uphold That Is what every good citi zen wants to see done. So strong is the desire to see tlie aws en forced, that some take no thought of the difficulties encountered by those whose business it is to see that thev are enforced. Many, most of us, know that laws are hpinur violated, but we do not know enough about it to bo able to go before a grand jury or trial inrv and eivc names and places. Of course every one knows that when a person is charged villi the violation of a law, the charge must bo formally made by taking out a warrant before a justice of the peace, or by secur ing an indictment by a grand mi . . f . 1 .. .. jury, Tlie justice or uie peace cannot lawfully issue a warrant except upon tne affidavit of some one, and that a grand jury can not and will not bring in an in dictment except upon evidence that is strong enough to estab lish reasonable belief of guilt. If any citizen is in possession of positive evidence of a viola tion of the laws it is his duty to present the evidence he has to the proper authority. If he knows and declines to tell, then he can not complain of the aut horities for not enforcing the laws. The judge, the juries nor the prosecuting attorneys cannot establish guilt except upon posi tive or strong circumstantial proof. If that is furnished, and the authorities decline to take action and enforce the law that has been violated, then they are properly the subject of complaint and of denunciation as being un faithful servants and betrayers of an accepted trust. , If those who take part in movements inaugurated for the supression of vice and the en forcement of law, will direct their efforts to securing proof of law violation, they will make their work effective. Nothing will be said In exten uation of the negligence or the indifference of the constabulary force of a community, those who close their eyes and their ears to what is : going on about them, they are worthy of all condemna tion; but it must be home in mind that guilt may be presump tive, but-cannot be established by mere hearsay.' Tliers must be proof such as will satisfy an honest jury acting under the ob ligations of an oath. -Knoxville Journal. . ' - S. A. L Should Help. will Rutherford county is spending $250,000 to improve the roads of that county and th beautiful and romatic Chimney Iock and Hickory Nut Gap section is to be opened to the tourist by a . sys tern of fine highways. This is one of the most picturesque sec tions of the whole mountain re gion and: the fine roads will be a great factor in the development of this country for tourist travel. Tlie Kutherfordton Sun believes that this should becoms one o the great resort sections or the mountains and calls upon , the Seaboard Air Line to aid in ad vertising this section like the Southern advertises the Ashe villo and HendersonvillesectJbns. It seems that the Seaboard would find this a matter of good busi ness policy to develop this re rht e r- t'.':"-er tourist,; and it would be profitable alike, to the railway and to the people. : , YOUR CHANCES FOR SUMPTION. CON They Depend ,Upon Your Age, Occupation, and mode of Living Your chances for consumption are good. Indeed, they are en tirely too good. Here are some Interesting facts about your chances. Last 'year over per cent of all deaths in North Carolina or one out of every sevan, were caused by consumption. You run more chances of dying from consumption than from any oth er disease. 1'neumoma . comes lecond. followed by diarrh'eal and heart diseases. . ' Children and old people haye the least to fear from consump tion. but about one death out of every four occurring between the ages of twenty and forty is due to consumption , Consumption exists and can be cured all the way from the equa tor to the pole. Your chances for consumption depend far more upon what you do than up on where vou live. Those who work and live in foul, dusty, dir ty places, such as cigar makers, tobacco workers, saloon keepers, or stone cutters, run five times as many chances of dying from consumption as farmers or lum bermen. But don't lose hope. You can easily make your own chances aganst consumption infinitely better than those of the farmer or outdoor worker. Their chief advantage is in the fresh air they get when they are at work. But they don't work all the time, and so they don't get an abund ance of fresli air all the time. Very few of thorn get enough fresh air in their bedrooms if they can keep it out. The same thing is true of their living rooms. If you want to have as good chances against consumption as the farmer, get fresh air ten or twelve hours aday. If you want to have better chances, get it twenty-four hours a day. It has been found that the ma jority of those suffering irom consumption are persons who have lived irregular or unhygie nic lives, or who are compelled, in order to gain a livelihood, to work in unhealthful surroundings. Remember that the dangerous germs coughed and sneezed out in the air are not so likely to in fect us if we keep them well swept out with a constant flood of fresh air.
