Democratic Politicians Not Willing
for the People to Rule.
{ From The Greensboro Record

(From The Greensboro Record
No one has ever been able to I'M
derstand why there is so much time
wasted in the Legislature in talking
over bills that are demanded, yet no
matter what it is some wise gentle
man feels called on to dive in, waste
time and do more harm than good
Senator Long of Alamance has in
troduced a bill in the Legislature
giving any city or town in the State
authority, on petition, to hold an
election on adopting or rejecting the
commission form of government. The
bill is on the same lines as the orig
inal local option bill in force in this
State. On presentation of a petition
signed by one-third of the qualified
voters of any town, township or coun-
ty, the County Commissioners were
required to order an election and the
voters did the rest. This bill is de.
manded. Instead of passing it. the
wise men are holding it up, while
dozen cities are asking for a chance
tc vote on the commission form Of
government. Senator Longs bill
would settle the whole thing at one
time. And yet we howl about this
being the day when the people rule
Maybe. but not when the astute poll
tician can help it.
