Attacking the Democratic Verdon.

In this campaign the Republi-
cans are concentrating their fire
on Ithe Public School record of
the past sixteen years. This is the
record to which Charles b. Ay-
cock gave his very soul, and
while the recital of it's glories
was burning on hislips, he "walk-
ed with God and was not" Ii
this record does not clothe North
Carolina in immortal honor, the
life of Charles B. Aycock was u
tragic failure, and his activities
were a fraud union the people OF
the State.
OF necessity large sumsof mon.
ey have been spent In the making
of this record, but none has been
mis-spent. Growth is not eXtrav-
agance. Miserliness is not econo-
my. "There is that scattereth
and yet increaseth, and there is
that withholdeth more than is
meet, but it tendeth topoverty."

High Prices a Blessing.
Charlotte News,

The statement appeared a few
days ago in an exchange that
the present tremendous b ig b
price for the staple commodities
may be a blessing disguised for
the American people in that they
would be driven back to q more
economical process of living.
That is, indeed, a legitimate spec
ulation. There is no question a.
bout the fact that the average
household in this country is too
extravagant. Prodigality does
not alone exist with the well-to-
do but even in those families
where there is something OF u
struggle for a livelihood, things
are thrown away that our fore.
bears would have been delight
ed to possess. The little essen
tials are disregarded. An i'm
proper value isattached to them.
What were once luxuries are be-
coming the things that we refuse
to get along without. Our tastes
are exorbitant in their demands.
The pace we are setting is too
swift. If the high prices at pres
ent prevailing for the bodily es-
sentials, for the food that we are
putting in our mouths, has the
ultimate effect OF forcing us to
assize the essentials more rigidly,
they will, indeed, haye become a
blessing to the American people.
There is yet another aspect,
however, OF this question which
permits us to interpret present
prices, and notably is this true
in the south country. Extrava-
gantly shigh prices for food and
feedstuffs will undoubtedly drive
our producing forces to q more
economical species of farming.
Diversifcation is a gospel that
needs yet to be preached in this
southern land. Within the past
few years we have been getting
over to it's side, but with nothing
like the avidity thatshould have
been practiced. There is yet too
great a tendency to raise whole
plantation OF cotton and then
buy the corn the stock eat in the
west and get ourown meats from
the same source of supply. Far
mers of North Carolina have no
business asking any other sec,
tion of the United States to put
a particle of food in their own
mouths or feedstuffs into h c
mouths of their cattle and stock
North Carolina soil will grow ev.
cry bit OF it. North Carolina eli.
mate will permit the growing o1
it all. And North Carolina ge'
nus and thrift and enterprise
when properly directed can mattel
> it's powers with any on the top
side OF the globe. All that is nee
ded is for the farmers once to gel
on the right track and then th'
problem will begin to solve itself

has ever produced. He uttered a
well-nigh divine truth when he
said, "All men are created free
and eqnal." Under the powerful
and far-reaching force of that
truth crowns have crumbled,
thrones have tottered and every
American citizen, however hum.
BILE or lowly, now knows that he
is an intregal part OF this nation,
and has a voice in it's affairs.
Wilson by his achievements for
the honor and glory of our coun-
try, for the peace, happiness and
best interest OF all it's people, has
impaired new life and force to
the great truth uttered by Jeffer-
son.
An old French philosopher said
Doubtless God might have made
a better berry than the strawber-
ry, but doubtless He never did. y
And so | think OF Wilson even
though | voted against him.
Wilson has taken the best thing
OF human government, and wo-
ven them into the reason and
principle OF his administration.
His sterling strength Ofcharac.
ter, his devotion to well regula.
ted liberty in all the great crises
and viclssitudes of his presiden-
tial career, awaken a deep sense
OF admiration in patriotic Amer,
lean hearts, During tie food oi
censure poured upon him by po'
litical opponents, the money
kings of Wall Street, the great
corporations, purchased and We
nal newspapers and magazines
he has been true, firm and un
yielding to the best interest o.
the great masses, cheering the
votaries OF law, and order, peace
prosperity and preparedness.
Like the flaming sword thai
guarded the gates OF Paradise

craftsmanship, will ever be bea

Goods Are Gods, Not
 Ours, Says Speaker

Rev. David McConaughy, represent ing the general assembly of the Pres byterian Church Of North America, addressed the evening assembly at the Peoples Presbyterian church on Lau- rel avenue last night. He spoke upon Man and His Money scoring the present tendency of the people to be- lieve that what they possess of goods, chattels and lands is inherently theirs rather than Gods. Everything is Gods said the speaker and too little credit is given to the Maker. On the famine in India. and the necessity for food the speaker dwelt at length.
