CARD OF THANKS The family of Shannon Ivey will always treasure the kindness shown by friends and neighbors during her illness and death. For the beautiful floral offerings, the gifts of food, the phone calls, the ‘ cards of encouragement and the FORUM From Page 1-A said the governor should be given veto power. Withrow said he agreed, if the General Assembly was given the power to confirm or rcject appointed positions. "The line item veto would do nothing as far as balancing the budget is con- cerned,” he said. "It will just take care of some personal whims the governor might have." Ollie Harris and Dennis Davis said they opposed term limits. Lynn Hoover said he favored them. Davis, Republican candidate for the 37th District House in a two- man race with Democrat Harris, criticized the practice of land farm- ing for contaminated dirt and sup- ports a public vote on a state lot- tery. Touting himself as the candidate of the future, the Crest High School teacher said spending on education bureaucracy should be curtailed while sending more of that money to local school boards. Harris said he was strongly op- posed to a lottery and gambling be- cause the less fortunate would suf- fer. Asked his views on term limitations, Harris, who served 18 years in the 25th Senate before he lost his reelection bid two years ~ ago, said, "Why send a man home if he's doing a good job? Let the voters decide If I'm doing a good job." Davis said voters two years ago limited Harris' term, "By all means in two years If I don't do a good job, send me home," he said. Davis said he has been told by voters in Cleveland and Rutherford Counties that voters haven't seen their elected officials. "I've learned a lot from this grassroots cam- paign. I've used shoe leather and I tell them I plan to represent all of them. Harris said he has attempted to get the views of all his con- stituents, "I've made mistakes in nine terms.” Davis suggested that more fo- rums might implement greater vote participation in the county but Lynn Hoover, candidate for 25th Scnate District, said the voters have to have someone to vote for. "They are fed up. They look at the corruption and the scandals and they stay at home. That's why we have voter apathy." Harris said he would like to block land farms but it's up to the administrative branch of the General Assembly to hire the ex- perts to give the permits. “It's a sit- uation we're living with." "We all create waste and it's our responsibility. Nobody wants it in his back yard. Look at conserva- tion and recycling," said Hoover. "What's good for North Carolina isn't necessarily good for Cleveland County," said Davis, who said the state needs to look at overall costs of land farming, "I see it as a clear cut choice in November, vote for the past or the future,” said Davis. He sees incum- bents as part of the problems of high taxation in the state. Lutz said she has a close rela- tionship with her constituents and said the state should continue to re- ly on part time legislators. She said she is running on her record. Weatherly, who served in the legislature one term, said the state could better prevent budget short- falls by keeping estimates of rev- enue to what was collected by the state during the previous year. He said the county representatives could do more to lobby for road spending in the district. Three Democrats are trying to hold on to their seats in the 48th House District, which includes all of Cleveland and Rutherford Counties, most of Polk County and a small portion of Gaston County. These Democrats are Jack Hunt, Edith Lutz and Bill Withrow. Kings Mountain Weather Report Republicans Dean Allen and John Weatherly are challenging the Democrats.
