ALLIANCE CANNERl.

Recently we made note Of
the fact that the Farmers Ali
ance of this place had in con-
temptation the establishment
of a canning factory, hope
they will do it.
The Democrat has almost
every week for nearly three
wears advocated the establish
III .nt of small industries for
tie town, and we are gratified
to learn that the Alliance will
take steps to open up and de-
velop this industry. Small
manufacturing industries do as
mach good proportiohately in
spreading money and giving en-
ployment to labor as do larger
ones. III fact almost every
large manufacturing establish
ment in the whole country be
gan on a small scale and grew
as the demands of the busines:
grew. We hope our Alliance
friends will not let the matte
stop, but that they viii organize
a company and be at work TO
the next season. Besides Civ
ing employment to people
there is money i'll it.-Scotl II

OPPORTUNE AID.

The House OF Repre- lentati-
yes has passed the Senate bill
known as the Morrill, College
Aid Bill. By the passage of
this act our State Agricultural
and Mechanical College gets
fifteen thousand dollars year.
This will be good news to those
who are interested in the use
full work that this college IS
doing.
WheE the recent Federal
Court decision in the fertilizer
case was delivered fears were
entertained by some that the
College would be badly Grip
pied, but happily this money
from the Federal Treasury will
put the institution in condition
TO work steadily on towards tn 2
goal that it has before it-that
is to stand foremost among
Agricultural and Mechanical
Colleges. s.-State Chronicle,
THE appropriation gives the
College $4,000 for the frs
year; S17,500 for the second
S2O,OCO for the third; S22,5W
for the fourth; and $4,000 f"
the fifth and every year there
after. This money is appropriat
ed not FROM the taxes collected
but out of money arising from
the sale of public lands.-ED

it costs no more 10 ship / car

TO Raleigh. Again, the stores
in this town last winter
were stocked with Northern
apples, one lot, we noticed from
Michigan, none Of them equal
to the apples raised i'll Western
Carolina. Why is this? An
examination Of the freight rates
will give the answer. We know
of only one lot of Western Car
olina apples received, the con
signee told us that the freight
was equal to the original cost
of the apples. If these facts are
mot sufficient to convince the
| News and Observer, they should
at least induce our contelnpora-
ry to investigate the matter
further. If the present rates
are reasonable and the manage
meDt of these roads are just and
fair to all the citizens and local
tiles alike, then the railroads

commission and the people can

trative OF this fact is told:
One day when the thermome-
ter marked TOO degrees In Wash
ington,. the Speaker was saun-
tering through IL Democratic
aisle when he was approached
by Mr. McClammy, of North
Carolina. McClammy looks
like n horse hair endowed with
life. He is the thinnest uiem-
her south of the Potomac. His
tariff speech was an opal of
eloquence. Upon meeting the
Speaker III the aisle he said, 40
the story goes:
Il want yru, sIr, 10 recognize
me for the purpose of calling
up a bill. If You don't do 1t,
you'll be sorry for it,"
"But," drawled the Speaker,
"your utterance is in the nature
of threat, and that won't do"
"Makes no difference" Mr.
McClammy repli3d; you'll be
Internally sorry. You'll be dumb
ed sorry
"What do you mean?" the
Speaker asked, with a lurid
light in his left eye.

my replied. "If | don't ge'
recognition and get my bill
through the house, I'm sure t
lose the denomination. The
people Of my district will theI
take care of You. They'll sen'
a man here who'll be a thun
derin' sight worse than Rogers.
THAT settles it," the grea
man from Maine is reported t

Something Beyond Comprehension.

But how is it with the distance to the
sun? If SO much time is needed to reach
the moon, it will take years to reach the
sun. Yes, it will-years and years. But
how many? 1t is mere question Of
mathematics. If the sun is $4,000, 900
miles from us, and our locomotive travels
rs miles an hour, it will be 1926, G68
hours on the journey, or 51,111 days of
"a hours each, or 40 years. In other
words had the locomotive been known
in the middle of the last century, the
Eight could have been begun 25 years
before the battle of Bunker Hill, and the
iron horse could have been laundering
down the ages" ever since, day and night,
at this terrific speed. What distance
is thatl Yet that is but the radius of the
orbit whose circumference the earth
travels every year. Where are our ideas
of speed and distance? They are too
feeble for mention compared with this.
Then what possible significance can it
have to us to say that light, moving
with velocity of 300, 600 miles o second,
will reach us from certain star in so
years, from another in so, from another
in 1925? We are utterly overwhelmed, and
our own figures are infinitely beyond our
comprehension. Union.
