THE conditions in North Carolina

last year." said Mr.. Webb. III the
president would fire In his protest to
Great Britain against the interference
] with expectation of cotton to neutral
countries and the putting of 1t on the

do .lot think that any OF the belliger-

as Great Britain is doing. Generally
speaking the people OF North Carolina

capital crops and are contented. Presi-
dent Wilson is popular-the n Kick
Is that he Ices not deal quickly and

"Above all else, however, the peo-

keep this country out OF war. Ihey
are dead against our taking part In

Booster and Knockers."-We repro
duce an article from The
ENQUIRER on Booster and
that expresses our sentiments exactly.
We wrote an article on this same SUD-
fect, but had not used it, n as the
Yorkville paper expresses the matter
SO much better than we had 1t. we re-
produced it.
For a long time we have noted Diff
ferent people put down as boosters
or knockrs," and we have watched
these same people. AS the Yorkviiie
paper expresses it the boosters woul
do great things If they had the mon
ey, but they never have 1t, but that
the knockers are the ones that finally
have to come across and pay up the
notes at the bank that were made TO
support the baseball team, and max
I'D the balance that is lacking for the
banquet, and a whole lot of other
things.
A man is a knocker because he asks
questions and wants to know how and
why when we go to him with a ub-
s~cription list to build a railroad to the
moon, and other hot air propositions.
He should not do this, we can tell him
what he ought to do with his money.
The "knocker" as we have seen II
generally applied is the man who pays
the bill in the wind-up while the
boosters claim the glory.-Anderson
