If she only remains good, all will be well. - Along with September, the eighth month, comes the open ing of the schools. It to one of the months looked forward toe with some sort of interest by the young folks. The fact that Dunn merch ants are purchasing large stocks of fall and winter mer chandise indicates that they have faith in the future. In other words, it’s a healthy sign- # ■ ■ # Dunn in leading the State a* a new-crop cotton market. More than 200 bales of the 1928 crop had been marketed hers up to Saturday night.

Must have, is right, and It hasn't altogeth er disappeared yet -u- - A traveling representative of a large fertiliser concern, which sells many farmers in the Dunn District made the statement Friday that practi cally all the fertilizer which his eon piny sold this year had been paid for. Add this to your pleasant assurances. Tom Mur Laws Under the caption. “Too Much and Too little," the Mount Olive Tribune clmasef "Too much law—too little re spect for it." as one of the greatest problcae with which present-day officers are con fronted. Continuing. The Tri bane says. “Congress. State Legislatures city councils and the like, all seem to be obsess ad with a mania for passing laws—more laws—and still more laws." We agree with The Tribune in these statements, and have so expressed it before. Tbs number of national. State county and munioipal laws hai become so great that one hard ly realizes when some law ii being violated. This ever pro duction of lews of the lend Ii responsible to a large degree for the growing disrespect foi the law. The laws are so num erous. one often conflicting with another, that the average officer fade to keep ap with homebody has said tkat one reason why so many laws — tereeThi that every aawT Cor aad Representative Is net satisfied until ho has one law OP the stetate to Me credit That moans that hundreds of S^jtSZJS? mw <ww would rwdw •'•LA 'C *i). - - • great service to the public. Fewer lews, more rigidly en forced. together with s greater degree of punishment for their violation would get better re sells. The story seat out from Washington by Edward E. Britton. Raleigh News and Ob server correspondent, to the effect that Governor Morrison is not to quit his job, is what we would term a double-head er news story. Not until vt read the story that ho was not to “drop out" had we been ap prised of the fact that the gov ernor had boon reported ae com sidering handing in his resigni tion. Such rumors as this are ab surd, and are "hatched out" by some of that class who ap parently are bent on burying the governor while he ie alive. It is true that we do not agree with all that is advocated by Governor Morrison, but on the whole he has made a good gov ernor. and through his efforts the State has set an example of progressive ness that is causing other States to sit up and take notice. Greater strides in the way of good roads, better schools and improvements along other lines haw been made during the leas than three years that Morrison has served North Carolina as its chief executive than bad been made during the term of perhaps any other of our gov ernors. He had dreams, and It may be true that some of his dreams were wild in their na ture, but others of his dreams have materialised to blem the State and its citizenship. If there be such a thing u carrying criticism too far, then we believe that there are those who have carried their criti cism of the present governor to the extreme. DUKE NEWS _(By Wade IT. Lucas.)
