such an emminent authority as John
Paul Lukas of the Duke Power COM
pany repeated the assertion that tour
lists spend $32e,ooo,oo in North Car
DINA alone annually. How much of this
large sum is Salisbury getting? How
much is the Piedmont section receiv-
ing?
Is there any question, then, as to the
ACCESSIBILITY of going out after some
of this ready money this fall and next
spring.? The great pity is that a more
general cooperative spirit from citi-
zens generally cannot be aroused. There
is urgent need right now of new lit
erature for the Salisbury Chamber Of
Commerce to distribute to the prospec-
tive tourist and to those who visit
this section as a result of the campaign
to be waged. If some twenty or thir-
ty patriotic citizens who are not now
doing their share for the upbuilding
of the organization would just get in
line the task would be much lighter
and certainly more effective.

TAMMANY HALL
LOSES ROOSEVELT
Positive Breach Is Seen AS
Governor Calls Special
Session To Probe Graft
Charges.

New York, Aug. 19.--Governor
Franklin D. Roosevelt, prominently
mentioned as a candidate for the DEM
ocratic nomination for president in
1882, appears to have broken away
from the Tammany Hall organization
of New York.
The governors call for a special
session of the New York state legisla-
ture for the purpose of passing an act
giving sweeping powers to the Hof-
stadter committee, now investigating
charges of municipal graft, was view
ed here as indication that Roosevelt
was willing to go before the 1892 con-
vention without the support of Tam
many delegates.
With Roosevelt in the factional
fight was former Judge Samuel Sea-
bury, who had set Tammany at de-
fance by putting John F. Curry, the
Halls chieftain, on the stand and ac-
cusing him of impairment interfer-
ence" with the courts of New York
state for the benefit of a democratic
politician.
The legislature will meet on Aug
ust rs to consider a bill which will
grant the Hofstadter committee pow
er to give immunity to any important
witness.

EHRINCHAUS WILL
FIGHT SALES TAX
Elizabeth City Attorney,
In Announcing Candi-
dacy for Governor Out
lines Campaign Planks.

Elizabeth City, Aug. 19.-John
Christopher Butcher Ehringhaus, Eliz-
abeth City attorney, will be a candi-
date for Governor of North Carolina.
Coupled with this announcement,
was the statement that he would OPP
pose all forms of sales tax. Mr.. Ehring-
haus is the first candidate SO far to an
nounc his position on the question of
sales tax.
At the outset, he announced four
points on which he wished to make
his position clear, in the following
statement:
II shall stand upon and vigorously
defend the record of the democratic
party in this state, both legislative and
executive.
81 shall oppose imposition of either
the general or the so-called luxury
tax. Such forms of taxation l consider
economically unsound, politically I'M
safe, and ethically debatable. Such tax
es are paid by the consumer. With cot
ton selling at six cents a pound and in
the midst of the most desperate eco
nomic situation faced by this genera
ton, our aim should be to reduce and
not to raise the cost of living.
"With land at its lowest income val
ue in 40 years, it is cruel to continue
to levy taxes upon the present basis
of valuation. I shall favor an immedi-
ate return to our former policy of
quadrennial assessment.
THE cost of government must be
further reduced in keeping with the
present ability of the people to pay
taxes. A strict but sane economy is
Imperative"

"Why are you devoting so much
time, energy and activity to the
ist?" was asked of the executive Off
Ger of the Salisbury Chamber of Com
merce.
The answer can be summed up in
a few words. The tourist "crop" is
perhaps the largest industry in the
United States. It. is a billion dollars
larger than the automotive industry
which reaches three billion dollars a
year and it is vastly larger than the
meat industry: the textile industry and
a number of other industries combin-
ed.
Salisbury. and the Piedmont Caro-
linas and Virginia have not been get
ting their legitimate share of this crop
and at this time when new industries
are impossible to attract it is but nat
ural hat attention should be devoted
to the effort to acquire a reasonable
share of the profits from this industry.
