HIGH BIRTH RATES AND
Low DEATH RATES
I'm the Mountain Counties of the State.
Negro Population Explains Differ
ence i'm Death Rate.

From figures contained in the 1915
1916 Biennial Report of the State
Board of Health, which is just from the
press, the mountain counties of the
State are far outstripping the pied
mont and eastern counties in the num-
Der of births per year per 1000 popu-
lation. Mcdowell county with the
high rate of 58.6. leads the State while
Clay and Yancey follow with a rate of
1876 for Clay and 48.4 for Yancey.
Following are Macon with a rate Of
45.4; Alexander. 40.7; Wilkes, 40.4;
Avery, Caldwell and Watauga, each
with a rate of 39.7;, while there are
many other mountain counties that
surpass the average birth rate of the
State.
The only eastern counties that are
admitted into this class are Greene,
with a birth rate of 49,; Martin, 41.9;
Warren, ALB; Bladen and Tyrrelli
each ALB, and Gates 1913. No pied,
mont counties are quite so prosper
GUS as far as increase in population is
: concerned.

The mountain counties come in ais

BIG. EASY MONEY.


Never before has New York been so
rich or felt SO rich, or INDUCED SO
~shamelessIy in orgies of money spend
ing. The nightly spectacle along the
Great White Way is making thought
fuI people take stock Of things some
what.
While the souls of the Down-and-
Out seethe With indignation and envy,
the Wan street Journal is saying:
A revival of oId-time piety rs what
we need now to clean this country OF
the filth and greed. petty and big; of
worship of fine houses and big lands
and high Office and grand social func-
lions. e.
What is this thing we are worship
ping but a vain repetition of what de-
cayed nations fell down and worship
ped Just befogt their lights went out?
Read the history of Rome in decay
and you will find luxury there that
could lay a big dollar over our little
doughnut that look $50 large to us.
Great wealth never made a nation
substantial nor honorable.
"There is nothing on earth that looks
good that is so dangerous for a man
or a nation to handle as quick, easy,
big money.
If you do resist its deadly influence,
the chances arc that it will get your
son.-University News Letter.

WORTHY IDEALS FOR ANY YEAR
AND ANY DAY IN ANY LIFE

President William Dewitt Hyde, OF
Bowdoin College, Maine, writing in the
Outlook recently On ideals for the New
Year, said: ITO weigh the material in
the scales of the personal, and measure
life by the standard of love; to prize
health as contagious happiness. wealth
as potential service; reputation as at
emit influence, learning for the light
it a shed, power for the help it can
give, station for the god it can do; to
chose in each what is good on the
whole, and accept cheerfully inciden-
tai evils involved; to put my whole self
into all that I do and indulge no single
desire, at the expense of myself as a
whole; to crowd out fear by devotion to
duty, and see present and future as
one; to treat others as. / would be
treated, and myself as I would my best
friend; to lend no oil to. the foolish,
butte let my light shine freely for all;
to make no gain by another's loss, and
buy no pleasure with another's pain;
to harbor no thought of another which
I would be unwilling that others
should know; to say nothing unkind to
amuse myself, and nothing false TO
/ please others; to take no pride IN
weaker mems failings, and bear no
malice toward toward those who dc
wrong. to pity the selfish no less than
the poor, the proud as much as the

FARMERS AFTER FOOD GAMBLERS
New Organization Opens Cam0aig7
Against ExchangeS-"Make 1t a
Crime to Gamble in FOOdstunS!"

A. C.. ToWnIey, of st. Paul, Mimi.
president of the National Nonpartisan
4. League, the new farmers movement IN
the Northwest. says, Make it a crime
: to gamble in food!"
Food gamblers. more than any
thing else are responsible for the fact
! that farmers get so little for their
! crops and consumers have to pay so
much" ToWnley asserted.
E'The President has just ordered an
other investigation into the high cost
of living. That probably will result
reports and no acton:
District Attorneys and the Depart
ment of Justice talk a lot about prose-
! cutting this man or that and once In
a while they do, but they v get
down to the system.
'It's the gambling system that we
! propose to Notwithstanding in
grain, meat and every other food pro-
duct"
With the opening of national head
quarters in st. Paul. the Nonpartisan
League begins a nationwide campaign
, to drive the food gambler out Of bust
ness, to do away with the trading in
, futures" in the great food markets of
America.
A n~onpartisan member of the Min
nesota Legislature has introduced a
, bill to make it a crime to buy or sell
imaginary wheat, or any grain the
buyer and seller trade in an poper
only. 1t prohibits the man who hasn't
wheat from selling any, and the man
who buys it must take the grain and
not the paper profits.
In this way the league hopes to end
grain gambling OF the floor OF the
Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce,
the largest flour wheat market in the
United States.
"These grain gamblers get rich"
Townley explained. "by taking toll
from both, producer and consumer.
I Every loaf of bread now costs more
than it would if the gamblers profits
hadn't been added to the wheat at the
time the flour miller bought it.
"The leagues slogan. Make it is
Crime to Gamble in Foodstufs' will be
carried into every state in which the
league is organized among the farm
ers. That means in every agricultural

"In the 1918 campaigns we will re
fuse Endorsement to theose Legislative
J candidates who favor gambling IL
5 feed stuffs, and the league member
: will go out of their way il tn cleo
: tm:ns to defeat the food gamblers
candidates"
1t was announced at national head
quarters that the league would b
strong enough by the next Presidentia
s election to force the food gamblin
issue into the platform of at least on
big party, and that it would pledg
9 Congressional candidates to enactmen
r of an anti-food gambling law.

SENATOR JUSTICE.

In the recent fight to annex a part
of Madison county to Buncombe before
the Judicial Committee Of the Senate
the Marshall News-Hera1d has the
following to say:
young Justice. the splendid square
Senator from Henderson, had voted
with the minority on the committee re-
port. He believed that the matter
should be free from any political col
oring. Senators should vote con-
scientiously for civic and economic
reasons. If this were done Madison
would have no assurance that other
townships would not be carved out of
her and annexed to other counties.
The opinion of. 16, 1000 people should
outweigh that of4,OOO."
