and supporters of Mr.. john

report upon the practicability and
cost of blowing out,''

s-painhour's SALARY Bin.

Referring to Hon j. F. Spain
hours bill regulating the salaries
of Superior Court judges, a bill
which is receiving the strongest
commendation from those who
have studied its provisions, the
Statesville Landmark says:
"There is under way in the leg
islature a most excellent bill with
reference to the salaries of Sup
erior Court judges. It provides
that judges shall be paid 800 per
week to hold courts but the ma
ximum salary shall not exceed
$4,000 per year for holding regu-
lar terms. In drawing his salary,
however. the judge must report
to the auditor the number of days
he is actively engaged in holding
court. IF, for instance, he finishes
a t~hree-Week's term in one week
he will receive pay for one week
The French Broad hustler. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1896-1912, 1911-02-02

only or If he disposs of a weeks
term in three days he gets pay
for three days. It is provided,
however, that all judges shall have
as much as they are now getting
$3.50 per year-but if they want
more pay they must earn it.
The only criticism that can be
made of the bill is that those who
do not put In time enough at 800
per week to earn the 1920
should have what they earn and
no more. A few of the Superior
Court judges are being worked
hard while many of them shirk
the work and draw the same pay.
The bill provides a reward for the
Industrious and it should provide
punishment for the shirkers. It
was drawn by Mr.. Spainhour of
Burke, long solicitor of this dis
trict.."

LOCKE CRAIG AT

AOGA6 q HUI u
but of North Carolina" was the
very neat way Commissioner of
Labor M. L. Shipman put it when
he introduced the silver tongued
orator to his big audience at the
Press Association reception and
smoker here last night.
Besides the city's guest there.
were present in the audience
many of the most prominent men
and women in the business and
social worlds of Wisnton-Salem.
And there are several hundred
people, previously strangers to
him, who now know just how.
well Locke Craig. "of North Caro-
lna," can talk when he really
tries. 8
For he of the silver tongue, adj
mittedly one of the foremost ora.
tors of the South, had his audi
tors in his hand from the first
words he uttered. And after that
he had them laughing or on the
verge of tears, just as he wished.
The children's singing class of
the Methodist Orphange was
there-some of them mere babes,
but all of them making a direct
appeal to every heart in the
crowd. Mr.. Craig's few eloquent
sentences referring to the little
waits facing him, and the citi=
zens' and states duty towards
them, was a sermon-one of
those sermons, you know, that
keeps ringing the bell of ,recollec-.
ton, telling you what you ought
to do until you get angry and go.
do it.
Mr.. Craig's real subject was
"North Carolina" Well, when he
got started he just reached upain
to the clouds, broke off. chunks of
the rainbow and changed them
into many words and phrases
that glittered and spark1ed
and dazzled. These he ar
ranged in generously rolling
periods and soon you forgot
where you were and what you
were there for. One instant you
actually heard the murmuring
voice of the winding Swananoa
he was telling you about. Then
you saw the million glories of the
descending sun on the jagged
heights or the swift drawn man
tie of night covering the. swell
ing breasts of the mountains he
loves so well. But before you were
really awake he had you listen
ing to the thunder of a thousand
looms as he recited the story of

or child in the audience but, drew
q sigh of regret when he finally
released his grasp of their hearts
and MINDS and lmag1natl0nS and
allowed them once more to walk
on the solid earth.
Mr.. Craig held an impromptu
reception of his own at the con-
clusion of his address, and most
everyone in the hall crowded
around for a shake of his hand.
It was through the efforts OF
Mr.. Shipman, president of the
North Carolina Press Association,
that Mr.. Craig came to the Twin
City to address the newspaper
men. The reception and smoker
were rendered the members of the
Association by the people of the
city, and it was most unqualifid-

ventures in the great field of
journalism. The editorfalmanager
Hon. R. F. Beasley, is well known

He directed the publicity feature
which proved so effective to the
democracy in the last campaign
and won an enviable position in

we could assign, we pray your
honorable body not to pass the
Bay Bill asa road law for this
county"
Some of these objections are
removed in the bill which is to be
proposed at the present session of
the General Assembly. Just how
many of them remain the petition
itself sets forth. IF there be OBJ
jections to the bill in its present
shape, Representative EWart and.
Senators Fisher and Gardner
should be, appraised of the fact.
Without taking a position either
for or against the proposed bill.
We think the agitation is most
unfortunate. The people general
" had become reconciled to exist
ing conditions and were getting
the spirit of road building, rather
than a change, of methods. firmly
grounded into their hearts. Rep
r~esentative Ewart called a num-
Der of meetings for the purpose
of discussing proposed changes,
with the final result that little
encouragement was given and
nearly everybody considered the
matter closed. Supervisor Patton
has succeeded admirably in i'm
proving the roads Of the county,
and the law, under which he OPP
crates, is familiar to the people.
Wrangling over methods has re-
tarded road construction In Hen
derson county more than any
other one thing and continued
agitation is regrettable, harmful
and exceedingly unwise.
This newspaper wouul not stand
in the way of any proposition for
the betterment of road conditions,
but it believes more in co-opera-
tive measures than schemes which
are calculated to excite antagon-
isms rather than accomplish need
ed results for the people. If Mr..
Ewart is willing to take upon
himself and his party the respon-
sibiity of enacting the new road
measure proposed this newspap-
er will be more than pleased to
let him have the credit. As set
forth in these columns oft before,
we are not welded to any "pet
scheme" but in getting better
roads; in seeing the people stand
together for good roads, instead
Of quibbling over minor methods
of highway construction and the
scheming of selfish individuals
seeking only personal gains. The
agitator usually "has an axe to
grind" Beware of the Greeks
bearing gifts"

The joint committee on Public

mature elaboration, reported the
Horne administration building
bill favorably by "a unanimous
vote. The bill provides for the
construction of a state building
on the square now occupied by the
Supreme Court and Agricultural
buildings and authorized a mil
lion dollar state bond issue for
said purpose. The state now has
to rent buildings and rooms all
over the city for Office and stor-
