Unmitigated TOmmyrOt.
StateSville Landmark.

SldleSVllIe Ian QnldrK.
We take the liberty of saying in
passing that there is more unmitigat-
ed tommyrot in the business argument
on the prohibition question than any
thing we ever heard of. That is, tc
say that a town cannot prosper un-
less liquor is sold in it, or that il
cannot prosper if liquor is sold; that
it attains greater degree of pros.
perity with the sale of liquor, on
greater prosperity without the sale.
The town that is really prosperous.
whose prosperity has a solid founda-
ton, is not dependent on either OF
these conditions. The sale of liquor
helps the business Of a town in cer3
tain ways and hurts in other ways
but all candid men know that right
here in North Carolina some OF our
best and most prosperous towns
Charlotte and Greensboro-have be-
come SO while selling liquor, while
others-Concord and High Point
have become SO while not selling it.,
We repeat, then that to say that thu
mere exclusion of the liquor traffic
will make a town prosperous. or tha'
it will make it unproSperous. is the
ver1est nonsense. No town prospers
solely because liquor is not sold, or
because it is sold. and all sensible
men know Il.

The man who undertakes to act in
dependent of a Democratic organiza-
ton finds himself in constant associa-
ton with the Republicans. The fact
of his independentism emboldens radi-
cal leaders to assume that he is ready
to join them and at once beseges him
with promises of votes and help. Then
too the independent finds himself
drifting to them as congenial hearers
OF his complaints and supposed wrong.
Even the negro politicians feel that
they are at liberty to approach him
with suggestions of what to do and
how the negro votes will be for him.
No man can be Independent of his par

The court held that the press had
the right to criticize any court or

guaranteed by the constitution was
violated. That up-start of a judge

Many a little fellow who would not
have dared to say a word against him
in 1896 or in 1900 is now kicking at

those folks who are making apologies
for supporting Bryan. If they We're
honest in supporting Bryan there is
no need of apology, for an honest,
square act needs no apology, even
though it be an error of judgment. If
a man voted for Bryan just because
he did not have the nerve to vote
against him, because of public senti-
ment, or for fear that voting against
him would make him less popular,
then that man needs to make no apollo
gy, unless it be for his hypocricy.
