PARLIAMENT TO REASSEMelE.
United States Senator Robert u.
Owen of Oklahoma is announced as

London, Feb. The session Of par.
Lament which will begin On Monday
rs. expected to have a.iRotable-Flace
in. British history. Seldom has the
political situation been more compli-
Gated or the outcome more uncertain.
Before the great controversies are
reached over the Home Rule bill. and
the Welsh Disestablishment bill. there
IS the possibility Of a grave crisis in
the liberal party over the navy esti-
mates. There has been "a rapid
growth in the party in favor of a pol
icy of reduction, and serious difer-
ences of opinion In regard to the
question are said to exist in the cab
met itself. This is the situation
which will first have to be faced by
the government after the preliminr
aries are over in the house OF con-
mons. s3saa#...
In addition, Premier Asquith is
credited with an intention to present
a scheme for the reform Of the house
of lords in the shape Of q series of
resolutions. which he will. ask the
hou.e of commons to pass and after
ward he will found q pill upon them.
The plan is to abolish the hereditary
principle, altogether, throwing the up
per house open to popular election,
the same as the commons, hut. with
the, voting qualifications based upon
q different principle. The house Of
lords will, Of course. reject tfe
scheme, which. with Chancellor Lloyd
Georges land reform proposals, will
be the main issue at the next general
election.

swain SCHOOLS
To PARADE.

The management of the Jackson
County Fair Association has decid-
ed to admit the schools of Swain
County to the Fair on the first day
under the same rule with the Jack.
son County schools.
AS there is no Fair in Swain. and
numerous exhibits and a large at
tendance is anticipated from that
county, tt was thought best to al
low the Swain County school chill
dren to march into the Fair grounds
In the Educational Parade.
1t is expected that a number of
schools from that county will take
advantage of the opportunity thus
afforded them.

MORE ROOM.

Judging from present prospects
the four large exhibit rooms of the
fair building and the stalls under
the grand stand will be full of ex-
hibite.
1t is thought probable that a tent
or some other shelter will have to
be provided for the overflow.
The midway will be full Of at
trrctions, and the farm machinery
may have to be put on the west
side of the race track. New and
better hog pens are being built.
More room. You see the fair is
growing.
Everybody seems to be interested
in the fair this year. Last week be-
fore the advertisement of the fair
was we'll under way much live
stock and poultry was entered. At
no previons fair has there been so
much interest manifested all over
the county. All previous records
in exhibits and attendance will be
beaten this year.

WHITTIER man dies
AT DELWO0D.

Whittier Correspondent to Bryson City
Times.
Many of our people here were
shocked Monday night by the sad
message of the sudden death of the
well known MIR. Berry Cooper, Mon
day afternoon, at the home of his
daughter, Mrs. Lula Hunter, of Del
wood in Haywood County. He was
about seventy years old and leaves
a family of six girls and one boy,
four Of them in the far west and the
other three iTf~'athis country He
was brought here Tuesday for in
terment, accompanied by three of
his daughters and the undertaken
from Waynesville The burial ser
vices were conducted at the Metho-
dist church by Rev. j. U. Gibbs, af-
ter which the remains were con-
veyed to the Whittier cemetery,
where: ne was laid to rest, to await
that great day when loved ones
shall meet each other to part no
more. We sympathize with the be-
reaved children, and more especial
ly those in the far west when this
sad news reaches them.

BIG CROP.GOOD PRICES
". N. c. APPLE.

Asheville, N. c., Sept. 16-That
the present season will see the pro-
duction of the greatest apple crop
IN the history of Western North
Carolina is the belief of leading aeri-
culturists who have made a
thorough canvassspf the Counties of
this section of the State visiting
the orchardists, conferring with tke
apple raisers and inspecting the or
chards. While States of the. far
South, where cotton is King, doubles
will suffer by reason of the European
war, the approaching Fall and Win
ter hold no terrors in store for the
apple raisers of Western North
Carolina, who expect to put a re-
cord breaking crop on the market
and who are now firm in the belief
that good prices will prevail.

Swain farmers
TO Have EXHIBITS
Bryson City Times.

Bryson City Times.
Jackson County is making big
preparations for the Fair to be held
September 10Th to October End, in
elusive. Swain County farmers are
invited to exhibit in all depart
ments and we are assured there
will be no entry charge for exhibits,
Heretofore our horticulturists have
been exhibiting apples at the Jack
son County Fair and they have in
varibly carried off the prizes. We
believe if the Swain county farm
ers would exhibit corn, wheat pota-
toes, live stock, etc., that it would
be demonstrated that we produce
as good or better than our sister
county on the east.
The cash premiums to be award
ed this year aggregate $2.1O0. There
will be trotting, pacing and running
races, also automobile races each
day of the Fair. Another attrac-
ton will be balloon ascension
each day.
There will be midway attractions
galore and all who attend are as
sured plenty of high class amuse-
mentS.

AN EXPLANATION.

Mr.. Editor-You announced in
that Iwould visit the schools
of the county in the interest of our
Fair.
| will not be able to do so on ac-
count of the condition Of my Grip
pied arm. | cannot drive a horse
or climb into a car.
The public will not be 1isappoint-
ed, but l am. | love most of the
boys and all the girls, and wanted
to look into their bright young faces
and tell them about the coming fair
and the good it will do them to
come. | wanted to tell them to ex-
anime all the exhibits carefully, and
not TO be too carried away with the
music and noiseand flagsand races
to learn somethisg at . the faiB.:
] wanted to tell them to keep
their minds open as we'll as their
eyes; no need to tell them to 90 up
on the Ferris Wheel, or ride on xthe
Merry-go-r ound, or visit the shows,
OF watch the balloon 60 up and the
man jump out. OR to spend some
time on the other attractions; I
want them to get their moneys
worth in knowledge, with the fun
thrown in.
| have one consolation in my dis
appointment, which is the certainty
that they will not be disappointed
In the fair, no matter how big their
expectations, for in the way of ex-
hibits, attractions ard crowds Of
people big surprise is in store for
you all. There was never before
50 much interest, all over the county,
in our county fair; and, strange to
say, nothing much yet has been
done to arouse this enthusiasm.
The farmers began coming in to en-
ter their exhibits last week, and
they brought good news from the
different sections of the county.
The women are at work in their
lines of exhibits, committees having
been appointed for the different
townships.
1t is not easy to account for this
unusual and general interest. Is
the spirit of God moving the heart S
of our people to joy, and gratitude
for our peace and plenty while Eu-
rope is being drenched in human
blood, and gaunt famine is knock
ing at the doors of newly made
widows and orphans? Is it because
Of our abundant crops, our fat cat
tie and hogs? I don't know what
it is, but some good spirit is moving
among us working for brotherly
love and joy; and we all want to
meet one another at our fair.

ASKS AMERICANS tn
PRAY FOR PEACE.

Whereas the great Nations of
the world have taken up arms
against one another and war now
draws millions of men into battle
when the counsel of statesmen
have not been able to save from
the terrible sacrifice.
And, whereas. in this, as in al
things, it is our privilege and duty
to seek counsel and succor of AL
mighty God, humbling ourselves be-
fore Him, confessing our weakness
and our lack of wisdom equal to
these things;
And whereas, it is the especial
wish and longing of the people of
the United States in prayer and
counsel and all friendliness, to
serve the cause Of peace;
Therefore, T, Woodrow. Wilson.

titions to Almighty God, that over
ruling the counsel Of men, setting
straight the things they cannot
govern or alter, taking pity. on. the
Nations now in the throes of con
t1iet, in His mercy and goodness
showing a way where men can see
none. He vouchsafe His children
healing peace again and restore
once more that concord among men
and Nations without which there
can be neither happiness nor true
friendship, nor any wholesome fruit
or toll or thought in the world; pray
ing also to this end that He forgive
us for our sins. our ignorance of His
Holy will, our willfulness and many
errors, and lead us in the paths of
obedience to places of vision and to
thoughts and counsels that purge
and make wise.
In witness whereof, I have here
unto set my hand and authorized
the seal of the United States to be
affixed.
