GOV. C0OPER's INAUGURAL

Gov. Ceoper's inaugural address has
the right ring, and the beauty about
it is that it is not as sounding brass
or a tinkling cymbal, because, know
ing Cooper as we do, we are sure that
he is not built that way, and does not
engage in camoufage, but means what
he says.
He goes out along constructive lines
and says that he will not now recog-
nize any factional differences, but will
obey the oath of Office which he has
taken and will as far as possible forget
that any factional differences ever ex-
listed in South Carolina, and again we
are prepared to say that he means
what he says and will do what he says,
and to say further that that is the
kind of governor we want to see oc-
cupy the chair.
He is plain countryman and does not
know how to dissemble, but has sense
enough to say what he means. And
then sense enough to do what he says
he will do.
He is entirely right on the educa-
tional question. It is going to take
money to have such a system as we
should have, but as he says and as we
have always said about education and
good roads, money spent for these is
an investment and good investment.
He needs to hold the boys down just
a little on higher education and spend
the money on the schools where the
great bulk of the children are. 1t is
true we can not have good and
hourishing system of common schools
unless we have higher institutions, be-
cause education is something that
comes from the top down, but We do
not want the top too heavy.
If we are not willing to. pay more
for education and pay our teachers
better salaries and give our children
better advantages then we ought to
quit talking so much about education.
There is just a little tendency at this
time toward too much 5 supervision.
Let us have more substantial work
and not put too much effort in super
vision.
About hix tax budget proposition we
do not know enough to commend or
not, but we have no doubt he has
looked into it carefully and certainly
there is need of reform in our tax
laws.
1t shall be our effort to do what we
can to assist Gov. Cooper in the ac-
complishment of the good work he has
started out to DO in bringing the peo-
pie of the State together, and to work
for greater and better common
wealth. We need to get vision and
a broader vision and those who fail
to get the outlooking vision are going
to be left in the building of the new
world and the new conditions which
are coming as peace returns.

There was evidence Of great interest
in the association by the people which
could be seen during even the short
time I was in the town, and teams are
out now at work for membership Mr..
Hanna said he thought the member
ship would be completed before tie
week had ended And when al The
plans are put in operation there will
be no better organization of its kind
in any community. 1t will mean much
for the uplift of the citizenship of the
community. 1t will help to bring the
people closer together and in closer
touch with one another. and that will
help to create better feeling among
all the people Many times we become
estranged and fail to cooperate even in
good works simply because we do not
know one another, though we may
have lived with only a line fence be-
tween US for many years. In many
ways this organization is going to
prove good thing not only for the
people of the mill village, but for all
the people of the community, because
it will help to bring all of them closer
together and the community spirit
will be cultivated to the highest and
only by the proper cultivation of the
community spirit can any community
attain to its highest ends.
I had another purpose in making
this trip also, and that was to begin to
make arrangements to establish a
Whitmire department for The Herald
and News Our idea of a country
newspaper is to make it in reality a
country newspaper to convey intelli-
gence from one to another about what
each is doing, and to bring the differ
ent interests and different communi
ties in closer touch the one with the
other. And to introduce the members
of each community the one to the other.
And to leave to the big dailies the
task of carrying to the people the big
news of the world. OF course county /
paper must do some of that, but the !
main purpose for the county paper is
to carry county news and to help in
every way in the upbuilding Of the
county in all things that are for the
good of the people who reside therein.
And I am going to establish such de-
partments at Prosperity and Pomaria |
and Chappells and Little Mountain so
that each community may feel in fact |
The Herald and News is its own pecu-
liar paper. I hope to have, the new
company organized in a few days and
the new linotype installed and, then
we will make a real newspaper, as we /
can do. We ask the cooperation of all !
the people of the county in this work |
of building greater and better coun-
ty. 1t shall be our main purpose.

PROHIBITION IN NORFOLK
Some Observations by j.. sydney smith.

In approaching this sub1ect. SO
much could be said OF the benefits
derived from prohibition In this sec
tion of the state. that it is difficult to
know where TO begin and where 10
leave off an enumeration of the bene-
fits. That a proper understanding OF
the case may be had. 1t Is 9 10 re-
call the fact that within the limlts.ot
the county of Norfolk, including the
cities OF Norfolk and Ports
mouth envirous. there is IL
population Of probably than
5000 people or about o~ne-seVehth
of the entire population OF the STATE
of Virginia, and occupying the
position which 1t does as a prominent
gateway to the commerce OF the
world. the question of prohibition Is
La most important one, when 1t IL for-
ther considered that for the past year
or more there rave been o ~
900 seldiers and sailors located IN n
around Norfolk, and because or the
navy yard, naval base and other large
government institutions, this section Is
in which a large number OF sol
diers and sailors and government en-
ployees are permanently quartered.
That the enforcement of the law Is
rendered difficult because of the
many venue through which liquor
may percolate into the county and
cities. goes without saving. especially
when this cosmopolitan population
having little regard for local con-
ditions, are willing to break the law

The city of Norfolk is more prox.

Wide prohibition becomes effective on
the first of July that Bookkeeping will
receive its death blow in his section.
The liquor interest made the claim
that there would be great numbers OF

of prohibition. That claim has been
refuted, and the demand for houses
in Norfolk has been very much
greater than the supply at any reason

1t was further claimed, that there
would be suffering because of a lack
of employment for those previously
engaged in hat business. That claim
has been likewise refuted when many
thousands of workmen have been
brought to Norfolk from other
places, and the demand Is now much
greater than the supply at prices
about double OF what they used to be.
1t Is also to be noted, that those
who would be honest in the belief
that h closing of the saloons would
be hurtful TO the interest of the city
OF Norfolk. have for the most part
changed their attitude. and 1t IL rarely

Prepare for Outbreak.

New York. June 3.-Close watch of
Reds and persons suspected by secret
service men of being Reds is the only
thing that has thus far prevented an
expected outbreak Of violence through
out this city. 1t was learned today, The

Bolshevists in the United States whose
slogan is direct action" rather than
slow propaganda. is known to he To-
Gated here and il is also known that
while ordinary forms of propaganda
through distribution of literature and
personal talk are by no means omitted.
plans for widespread violence and
murder are believed to have been
carefully laid. Opportunity to put the
plans into effect has been the. only
thing lacking according to officers of
the secret service.
The United States would be rich
picking for the fellows whose theory
of government is TO grab what they
want and, when that has been used,
grab some more" said a secret service
man today.
More than 2>5oa highly paid agita-
