HENDERSONVILLE SHOULD HAVE

There is nothing too good for Hen

she should have the best of all that is

1T is TO LAUGH.

1t would be laughable, were they less
criminal. to consider some of the reck-
less Charges" that the Republicans
are making AGAINST the record Of Dem
ocratic adm ~nistrations in North Caro-
lina-making them without any foun-
dalton in fact (often in the face of the
facts to the contrary for the sole pur-
pose of attempting to influence voters
by false statements.
High taxes!" This is what some
of the Republican s~pell-binders are
shouting. And some of those who
hear them may believe what they say
for lack of information that is truth
full and reliable. Yet, it is the fact that
North Carolina people today pay taxes
in dollars and cents, for all purposes,
less per capita than the citizens of any
other state in the American Union.
This fact is conclusively shown by the
United States Census Department.
Educational extraVagances," is an
other howl Of the Republican stump
speakers. That is the most ridiculous
of all the silly charges. The man who
advances such an absurdity is furnish
ing Democratic ammunition. There
are only two states with smaller aver
age annual per capita expenditure per
child of school age for public schools:
With one exception North Carolina is
at the foot Of the list of states in the
average daily expense of school per
child attending school. 1t is remarks
bic as well as commendable that we
have accomplished so much with so
little. As the increasing wealth of
this State shall justify it, any party
worthy to be trusted with is manage
men should spend accordingly, until
the Tar Heel boy and girl shall have as
good a chance as any other child in
the world.

THE WILSON TIDE RISING.

Thomas A. Edison's strong pro-
nouncement in favor Of the re-elec-
ton of Mr.. Wilson is a notable sign
of the turning Of the tide in the di-
rection of the president. Mr.. Edison
has always been a republican, but he
favored Mr.. Roosevelt's nomination
by the republican national conven-
ton this year. In the ten weeks
since the nomination of Nh. Hughes,
the republican candidate has failed to
win Mr.. Edison's support. nOthwith-
standing Mr.. EdiSOn's lifelong allegf-
ance to the republican party and not
W~fthstanding Mr.. R~oosevelt's own in
dorsement of the Hughes candidacy.
Mr.. Edison's reason for preferring
Mr.. Wilson as the next president
pierce to the heart of the question
and reveals the elementary truths
which every citizen should face. Mr..
edison acknowledges like a generous
man and patriot that no president in
his mature lifetime has had to meet
such a succession of perplexing and
staggering problems as Mr.. Wilson
has: yet, in no case, as Mr.. Edison
points out, has the presidents deci-
sion involved the country in disaster.
Mr.. Edison sees the essential truth
of the railroad crisis of the past two
weeks, the latest of the difficulties to
heset the chief magistrate, and, like
Henry Ford he decided that the pres
ident has met it with his usual cour-
age and sanity"
Mr.. Edison also believes that, in
view of his extraordinary experience
gained during a period of continuous
storm, Mr.. Wilson is by far the better
fitted of the candidates to receive the
mandate of the people and bear the
responsibilities Of Office in the next
presidential term . Mr.. Edison, in
that opinion. must reflect the rapidly
crystalizing views of a large number
of voters who place country above
party.
There IS as little eason for brand
inc woodrow wilson's presidency as
failure, in this year of 1915, as there
was for branding Abraham Lincoln's
as a failure in the fall Of 1864
Springfield Republican.

CR0SS PURPOSES.

case, two kinds of people in this coun-
ty and in this town. First, hose VINO
put their shoulder to the wheel and
help every enterprise that is intended
for the betterment of the people and
the up-building of the community.
The other class is made up of those
who are either in direct opposition to
the public good or, which amounts to
the same, occupy neutral ground. me
first is usually at the meetings for the
purpose of formulating plans for the
public good; the other cares little Tor

sonal welfare. These classes may be
foundi in all walks in l fen business.

DUR Low TAX RAT

Misrepresentation Of the States
part of the tax levy is a charge" r
A. Linney and his Republican crowd
are passing along in the hope of de-
ceiving the people of North Carolina
this year. OF course, it is as reckless
as it is false. But Republican SPELL
binders have no political conscience.
They are out to foo all the voters
they Gan-and it is IL duty Of every
Democrat to aid in preventing the
folks from being deceived by any such
a bunch of adv cnturers. Here is the
State tax levy to the fraction of a cent
read it and gee for yourself where
the States part of the tax Ivy goes to
what purposes It is applied
Pubic school appropriations, 90
| cents; educational institutions. eight
and one-third cehts; to supplement the
pension tax, one and one-third cents,
makir g a total of eighteen and two-
Thrill cents. That leaves of the levy of
twenty anG two4third cents i've cents
to be applied to- hospitals, homes, in
crest on State debt, support of State
government, executive and indicial.
In other words, a citizen of North
Carolina must own property assessed
for taxation at least $1,000 before he
pays as much as fifty cents, and must
own $4,000 worth of property before
he pays as much as $500 tothe support
of the State government and the pur-
poses mentioned. All other funds for
these purposes are derived from Ii
censes. corporation franchise taxes and
Inheritance taxes.
Instead of issuing bonds to pay
running expenses" as the Republicans
charge" the contrary is true. AS a
matter of fact, $1,286,961 of general
revenue income has been issued to con-
struct permanent improvements.
These are just a few samples-cater-
ed for the uniformed and the new
voters especially, who need only to
know the true record of the party in
control to increase his approval at the
ballot box in November.

STATE PROUD OF THE INDUSTRY.

Durham has an industry that the en-
tire State is proud of, and it gives us
peculiar pleasure to note its splendid
growth and wonderful development. 1t
is the Durham Hosiery Mills Company,
OF which Julian S. Carr, Jr., is the
president, with his brothers, and kins--
people, who are giving the world the
example of what young men al do in
their native State, and add to it's
wealth, it's prosperity, its enterprise.
and the ability Of these young minds to
take their place in the front ranksfof
commercial progress. They have a
string of eight mills, making hosiery
that is recognized 10Y as a standard
even by the United States government,
which has already taken 404,416 pairs,
and out of this number only five pairs
we're rejected. which were damaged in
packing. That is a record to be proud
OF, and as a citizen of the State we
point to it with great pride. In spite
of the high price of dyestuffs and other
material, their business for the past
six months has been the best in the
experience of their mills. Their July
statement shows they have done a bus
mess amounting to 1892, 702.69.
Young Julian Carr is a believer in adj
vertising. and the handsome ads in
leading publications, is g great ineen-
tive to much Of the large business they
are doing, and gives the company's
string of mills the title of the largest
hosiery in the world,-a proud distinc-
ton for the bustling city of Durham,
and these fine young men, who are the
most energetic Captains of industry"
in North Carolina today. With. all of
this business, and prosperity, the Cars
have inaugurated every known advant-
age and comfort for their employees
even to a school for their uneducated
operatives and a nurse to look after
health; and encourages all healthy
amusements. 1t is such a wonderful
industry, and has-been SO successfully
conducted that we feel like the people.
of the State should share with us the
pleasure of applauding the young men
at the head of this great concern. All
honor, and prosperity to them. They
are making North Carolina shine, in
dustrially, as she has never shone be-
fore.
This leads Us to remark that the
greatest industries in Henderson coun-
ty is it's three knitting .mills-two in
the city. and one in the country. They
are doing a fine business, and from
what we can understand, are making
money. But they are not using the
methods Of the Durham concern in
making known their products to the
outside world, and drawing attention
to Hendersonville as a manufacturing
center in this particular line. IT is
our belief that if they will put on an
active campaign of advertising. that
HendersonvilIe would be second onIy
to the great industry in the Bull
City" The Hustler, in all kindness
n for the advancement of the town.
would invite our hose manufacturers
to spread a little more printers ink"
n reap a richer harvest in the line
of their endeavors, and thus give Hen
d~ersonville some prestige in the man
ufacturing line.
