Editor Archibald Johnson, of : Charity & Children, Thomas . : ville, N, C, who, by the way, is " one of the. most gifted editors la thej-State'of North Carolina, : la- discussing this week .the e lection results, refers to the de feat of the Port Terminals bill Inrlic&tinir the temner of the "otiblic mind on the subject of if.- ti: .5 r '....u : 1 ,DOna issues. . une wuuiu juugc from reading his editorial tnat . j the State has been voting bond Issues heretofore and the de feat of this measure indicates that public sentiment is chang 'lag. Now, . Editor Johnson knows niore history than this writer hopes everio know, but we would like for him to let us know when the State of North Carolina, by a vote of all the people, ever voted upon itself bonjis for any purpose. The ""bonded indebtedness of the fitate is the work of the Gener al Assembly, if we have histo ry right, and. If it were left to vote of the entire people, the State would not vote bonds. And this is not saying a word , against the issuing of bonds oc casionally. We Relieve that the State did a good thing for Itself and all its citizens when 'A the General Assembly voted upon he State the bonds with " which it is how building roads, but the point is that the peo- ile at large would have de eated that measure. How aver, now that the people are MAinor the tnrtr benefits de- -fetWRTflgood roads, we; are inclined to the opinion that a ; vote-"now on tne roaa Donas ' ,Xwuld approve that measure. So many people vote' against new things without taking the ' time to consider carefully poth . aides of the question. As much publicity as is sometimes given a matter Of this kind, it is al most impossible to reach the people generally and let the message carry. We have the utmost confidence in the peo- , pie at large that they will try to do the right thing, but that V does not always assure one that the "voice of the people ttth voice of God," as some -olitlelani would argue. The jroici of n enlightened people - on any measure is" the 4 best obtainable guide, "but until the people at large take Bme to in-; form themselves as to meas-j ures on which they are to vote, auch methods will not be'with- ,1 4ut mistakes. One notable example of majority mistakes was when dilate found Jesus Innocent and preferred to re Z Him, but because of the will of the people an over whelming majority He was turned over to the mob to be - trucified. The fact that a meas tre is killed by a Vote of the r eople does' not always mean . that the maiure in itself was r-t ;': for the'- best interest Of tie people. Notwithstanding all these facts, we ' live in a country in which the people rule, and we are glad we do; for, however many mistakes the people at large may make we feel safer under "their rule than we would under the rule a fw human mortals. Ye were confident the Port Terminals measure was doom it was referred, to. a vets of the people, and we are r:t saying tnat tne peopie a r-i take in this narticu- i "r mntipr. but the noints are that the sentiment of the peo ple in nmvosinsr it was not dif ferent from what it has always teen toward voting more tax es on tfiemselvea, when, -the benefits were not evidently di rectly beneficial, and tnat tne rcoiority votes are not always the beFt thing for the people.

Tables which show Ua inefficiency and extravagance , t one-teacher ichools in North Carolina are presented in the November 1st' issue of "State School Facta." semi-monthly publica tion of the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, A.
