By All Means

Most every town of the size of
Franklin in our State has a
chamber of commerce to look
after it's commercial interest and
welfare and to keep continually
before the outside public the
business and other advantages
it appeals to all who will come
here and enjoy them. Several
attempts have been made in the
past to organize a chamber Of
commerce, but resulted in fail
ure. We suggest to the leading
business men and all that would
have our town prosper to con-
slider this matter seriously. Or

BottomIess Pools Mysteries
Of Chimney Rock Section OF
Mountains of North Carolina

Nowhere else On our continent are
more pronounced evidences found OF
natures tremendous cataclysms than
In the mountain sections of western
North Carolina. Granite powders
split in twain as by giants hammer
mighty assures torn in the sides OF
lofty peaks, beds of streams upheaved
in colossal mounds Of jagged rock. or
with great cavernous holes rent IN
them-these are seen on every side.
One of the so-called mysteries Is the
"bottomless pools" in the farfamed
Chimney Rock section. The gorge
through which pours the food OF
Rocky Broad river is a great insure
torn through the very heart OF the
mountains. From the moment the
waters enter the head of the gorge the
river becomes q tempestuous torrent,
plungtng along bowlder strewn Ded'
sending rocks grinding against rocks
leaping downward in series OF cas-
cades to disappear at length with q
wild plunge into the bottomless POOLS
No one knows how deep they are
Every effort to sound them has been
without success. At the foot OF q
cataract the first Of these pools pre-
sents a boiling surface, from which
leaps upvard binding spray, drencn'
ing the limbs Of trees that hang high
above 1t. The second pool is like q
simmering pot, while over the rim OF
the third, or last Of the pools, the over
flow trickles with a musical gurgle
spreading out into a shallow crystal
stream that ambles away gently to the
valley beyond the cascades.

Korea, Japan and Progress.

Consideration of the Korean propaganda,
now SO vigorously fomented in America, should
be characterized by temperate valuation of the
facts in the case. Making all due allowance for
the suddenly awakened aspirations of the
Koreans for political independence, little at
tention to the condition in which the Japanese
found them few years ago may help in reach
ing conclusion as to their present plight and
what may be done to aid them.
At the time of the Japenese war with Russia
Korea was among the most backward of nations.
For generations its moral and intellectual fiber
had diminished; it was a grotesque leftover
from bygone age, misht at the border of two
nations, one energetically alive and the other
throwing off the sloth of centuries to take on
new vigor The political situation depended on
which group of potters at Seoul had power fot
the moment Industry was dead, for no in
centive to effort could exist in country where
possession amounted only to an invitation to the
tax-gatherer to seize. Corruption beyond our
conception existed, the whole social fabric of
the country being saturated with dishonesty, in
justice, oppression in most repellant forms
Russia had already set its hand on the land, the
harbor of Chemulpo being in effect Russian
port.
Japan found nothing in Korea to exploit, but
did recognize in it menace because of the like
lihood of Russia gaining full control and so
having base too close to the islands for Nip
ponese comfort. So the Korean government of
incapacity was quietly taken over and japanese
protectorate established. Reforms of many
kinds were instituted; EDUCATION was offered,
property rights established, taxes lowered and
laid in proportion to possession, industry re-
vived and social life greatly set forward. These
things were not accomplished without consid-
cradle friction, but they were done and none
has benefited from them more than the Koreans,
who now clamor for independence.
Koreans in America now talk of establishing
a republic, under the protection of the great
powers. Sympathy with their plans is general,
as it is with all submerged nations now coming
back into the light. If any question exists it
is as to the capacity of this people for sef-gov-
eminent, with fear OF return to conditions
that prevailed prior to the assumption of con-
troll by Japan. If the movers can give the world
any good reason for confidence in the future OF
Korea as republic, they will find plenty OF
support for their enterprise. 1t must rest on
more than sentimental assertion, however.

Punish This Gulltg One

United States soldiers at $50 month were
employed to build roads in southern states
They worked alongside negro civilians who
were paid IS and S. day. They entered the
army to be soldiers They were willing to sac,
rifce everything for America. They endured
the strctest training and discipline. They
joined the army as fighting men. They were
forced, under army discipline, to become road
laborers.
Who did this? And why does not the guilty
one face charges in criminal court?
Can the company commander OF a unit from
the University of~Wisconsin be held RESPONSE
Bile? No. He was under orders from the col
onel. Can the colonel be held? Not so his
orders came from the division commander. Then
the division commander? No. for he got or
ders from Washington.
Who in Washington sanctioned the gross
misconduct? The trail seems to lead straight
to the door of Secretary Baker Surely it was
his business to know if men of the United States
army were being used for other than military
purposes.
There is no doubt of the wrong done because
congress has ordered the soldier-1aborers paid
on the basis of the wages given to negro la
borers who worked with them. The negroes
were paid S. and Sc a day The soldiers who
enlisted to fight in France got $50 month.
The southern states will have to make up the
difference. But even this money does not come
out of the state treasures but out OF federal
road gift. But the point is, congress has de-
clared by its action that the charges of forcing
soldiers to do road work are true. If the
charges are true it follows inevitably that some
one is guilty of the charge
1t is not sufficient to pay the soldiers the diff
ference between $50 month and S. or Sc day
and then let the affair drop. Paying the differ
ence is only confession of some ones guilt and
the technical compromising OF misdec1. Does
Baker escape the indictment of forcing soldiers
to grub as common laborers merely because
congress does an act of justice by paying them
what any laborer would demand Hasn't the
United States army had about enough odium
heaped upon it by Baker?
The soldiers did forced work as laborers; it
has been admitted by congress-; they are to be
paid; here is proof of inquity The official re-
sponsible for such gross administration
should be fetched into court. We think there
should be punishment melted out to the guilty

TERMS FIXED FOR GERMANY.

The Peace conference is reported to have
agreed on terms for final reparation to be
exacted from Germany. For the start this is
fixed at 100000, 100000 gold marks, with pre-
war value Of $23,82O, 100000. to be paid within
thirty years. The initial payment of $4,764 ,000,-
600 is to come within two years. This may be
in cash or kind. In the meantime the nterna-
tonal commission will continue its sitting to
determine on the private claims that may be
presented and fix the sum that must be paid on
this score.
1t was agreed at the outset that the Ger
mans would be required to pay to the limit OF
their ability. Apparently this has been
touched To understand what it means, some
examination of the record may be helpful. In
1914 the German imperial revenue was around
$900000,000; at present the interest charge on
its several war loans amounts to 81, 100000.
To this the Allies have added $2,3800O00O0 for
the next two years, making charge of $780,
100000 that must be met before anything can be
taken for running expenses of the government.
The total German prewar income has been
variously stated at all the way from TWEEN
ty-fve to thirty-hve billions. Accepting the lat
ter figure as correct, the indemnity and interest
charges alone will take II cents out of every
dollar of income in Germany for the next
two years, if the industry of the country is
restored at once to its utmost productive ca
pacity.
In order that this may come about, Ger
many must have raw materials and market
Its steel industry already has been crippled by
the loss of the iron and coal mines. Many
years will be needed to get its farm lands back
to productveness again; instead of the 100000
tons of food that was imported prior to the
war, it is estimated that for the immediate fu-
ture Germany will be compelled to buy abroad
100000 tons.
Justice has overtaken the people who madly
plunged into war of conquest Their future
depends on the patience Of the world with which
they must deal, and they will have ample time
to develop penitence they do not now exhibit
before they have lifted the burden that has
fallen on them.

First Steps in Americanization.

Mrs. George Thatcher Guernsey, addressing
sounded note that has an echo in Nebraska,
and that ought to be heard all over the land.
1t is that speaking the English language is the
first step in Americanization.
A few years ago survey of the Pittsburgh
district developed the fact that for seventeen
miles along the Allegheny and Monongahela
rivers man speaking only the language of his
country needed an interpreter; almost every
tongue was spoken but English.
An inquiry by the United States government
followed shortly developing the fact that for

groups, where their native language was spoken
and where ways brought from the old country

much to break up these groupings, or at least
to minimize their effect 1t is fully realized now,

by American citizenship The war has driven
