The Progress alleges inefficiency
and wastefulness in the handling of
county fluids, ring rule and machine
politics. 1t urges The people to be
up and doing. to battle with the ring
to the finish, to turn out the present
officers and install new men who we
supp ose are patriots all. It makes
the startling statements that lone
or two men must approve of every
thing before it can be- and that
no man has any chance to be ap-
pointed or elected to any office in thu
County unless he has the pract-
zeal endorsement ofthis small group.
The Herald holds no brief for the
officers of Halifax County; and is in
terested in county government only
to the extent of doing everything
possible to render this government
more efficient. We believe this is
the idea which also prompts the Pro-
gress. but we disagree with it almost
| completely in regard to the methods
to be used. We also disagree with
the Progress when it argues thar orr
