JUST BUNK

If a man believes the 18th Amendment should
be repealed all right. We have no fuss with him
about it. but the thing that gets your goat is for
some fellow who knows absolutely nothing about
it to begin arguing that there is more liquor being
drunk now than before the days of prohibition,
that dry laws have ruined our college boys and
that prohibition is responsible for girls taking up
the drink habit All of which is nothing but pure
bunk of the rankest kind. The Dunn Dispatch has
some interesting information along this line as fol
lows:
1t is worthy of remark that on the petition of
the candidates against repeal in Wake county the
names of four college presidents should appear if
prohibition is the menace to college life that some
would make it appear. Those signing the dry petit
tions in Wake were DR.. Brooks of State College,
Dr. Kitchin of Wake Forest. DR.. Brewer of Mere
dith and Dr.. Presley of Peace. DR., Poteat, foc
generation president of Wake Forest, is one Of
the repeal candidates and also state chairman of
the United Dry Forces.
Apropos this showing, it is fitting to remind
readers of the 1890 poll of college presidents Or
255 presidents, 146 reported decrease of drink
ing under prohibition, Al that drinking not
known at their colleges, and A that there was no
drinking among their students.
The wse-acres can tell you how much more
drinking there is despite the decrease of alcoholic
diseases and deaths from alcoholism and despite
the poison liquor that is so much bewailed There
are doubtless many soaks, but comparatively few
in comparison with the number of people. Like
the fellows noisy bull frogs which made him think
he could ship carload, it might turn out that the
wiseacres are likewise fooled. Certainly, it is rare
for a man who goes himself only where he should
to see any evidence of drink. The writer has traV
eled large part of the state in recent months
and has been aware of scarcely drunk. 1t was
not always so.-Marshville Home.

KINANIS TOLD
OF IVA PLANS
Recommendations From
People for Dams Should
Go To Authority

Plans of the Tennessee Valley
Authority. with particular refer
ence to the effect the development
work would have on this imme-
date section, were outlined by
Noah Hollowell and J. 7. Fain in
addresses to the Kiwanis club yes
terday afternoon. Both speakers
based their remarks on statements
made by DR.. A. E. Morgan, head
of the IVA, in an address in
Asheville last week.
Mr.. Hollowell said that an mi
tial appropriation of $780, OO,-
600 had been made for the work
of developing the territory trav-
ersed by the Tennessee river and
its tributaries, and that North
Carolina ranks third in the extent
of the area to be affected. Almost
one-half of this sum will be spent
on the Cove Greek dam in Ten
nesseee and allied projects, in
Guiding the establishment of a
"model community" to be made
up of persons from many sections,
while most of the remainder will
be used at Wilson dam and the
development of Muscle Shoals,
where "yard sticks" are to be set
up in the manufacture of electric
power, fertilizer ingredients and
the like.
Mr.. Fain said that while the
government may not soon, if ever,
get around to the building Of a
proposed dam 200 feet high at
Long Shoals, in Buncombe coun-
ty, the people of Henderson and
Pennsylvania counties S h u | d
study the probable effect of such
a project, which he said would be
to flood practically all of the low
lands of the two counties. Dr..
Morgan, he said. requested that
the people of this section let the
Tennessee Valley Authority know
what they wanted done, if any
thing, and Mr.. Fain proposed that
a series of smaller dams, as sug-
gested by Prof. S. P. Werner of
Brevard, be recommended. The
smaller dams, he said, would back
water up into coves, many OF
which are on land already owned
bv the government. If the larger

dam is built, landowners would
receive very little for the proper
ty destroyed, he asserted, and the
water forming the huge lake
would be drawn off in the tourist
season here for use at Muscle
Shoals.
J. L. Rarden was program chair
man for the day. Jos. R. Sewer,

TUMBLE HAS COME

The present chaos in Democratic party politics
in the state has the wise-acres guessing wildly.
Gardeners stepping down from the national cont
mitteemanship; Morrison refusing it and pronounc-
ing himself against repeal; the declining star of
Bob Reynolds and where Governor Ehringhaus
comes into the picture-all of these factors have
rushed again to the fore.
Who will be the next governor, who will run
against Senator Reynolds, who will seek Senator
Baileys seat, what is Mr.. Morrison going to do in
1886 and in the interim-these are the inquiries
being raised in the minds of the voters.
Something is happening behind the curtains. It
is far-reachingy important, but elusive The only
thing that be done about it is to speculate AMI
one conjecture may be as good as another.
1t seems to be certain that Governor Gardner
will be in the thick of the senatorial fight in 1886.
The job of national committeeman which he threw
up calculated to make too many people sore at
his influence in patronage
You don't catch Gardner holding on to hot
brick like that.
And if there is anything more certain about the
present tumble than other phases it is that Sen
ator Morrison will put his stamp upon the man
who succeeds Reynolds, if, indeed he does not g0
out for the toga himself.
! That man has got to be everlastingly at some
thing, and it's usually public service-Charlotte

AN OPPORTUNITY TO DIRECT DEVEL.
OPMENT OF THIS REGION

In MS address QelNereQ IN ASneVlIlS
some days ago, DIR. A.. E. Morgan, chair
man Of the Tennessee Valley Authority,
after citing some of the things the Author
ity has been commanded to do by Congress,
stated that it would be pleased to have the
people of this section of Western North
Carolina make suggestions as to what can
be done here under the Authority's direc-
ton. DR.. Morgan did not say that any
thing had been commanded by Congress to
be done in this section, but that the All
thOrity invited suggestions from the people
of this region.
DR.. Morgan's statement opens the way
for the people of Henderson, Pennsylvania
and Buncombe counties to begin negotia-
tions with the Valley Authority for the de-
velopment of this section. DIR. Morgan S
statement indicated that the Authority has
made no definite plans to do anything in
this region, but will be pleased to hear sug-
gestions offered by citizens and be guided,
in some measure at least, by the views Of
our citizens in making plans for develop
ment
The Times-News believes that steps
should be taken promptly by the citizens
of the three counties that would be in
volved in the construction of the proposed
Long Shoals dam, to bring that proposal
up for consideration of the Valley Author
ity. The Authority should become familiar
with this section and get the views OF the
people in reference to this matter, and our
people should not stand by and wait until
a plan has been formed and adopted by
the Authority without consulting the Cit
zens who will be directly involved.
The Valley Authority wants to know
what the people of this region want the
government to do in development work.
That proposal may be extended to a much
wider scope than the building of power
take, the people of this section should have
something to say about what is done. They
have been invited by the Valley Authority
to take this course; and their interest
should be aroused and they should pre-
pare to act.
Our people have the opportunity to di-
rect the development of their section by
this government agency and with govern
fnent money; and to have the development
take the course that a majority of citizens
believe it should take. That is the under
standing The Times-News has of the pro-
pOsal made by DIR. Morgan. If the Valley
Authority was proposing to force pre-
conceived plan upon the section, we do
pot believe that the suggestions and CO.
operation of the people would have been
Invited by DR.. Morgan.
! The people of this section should be in
formed about this matter and should be
prepared to act in a concerted and definite
way to secure type of development which
will best serve the purposes of the Valley
Authority when combined with the large.
interests of the people of this region.

MONTREAL, Oct. 13.-Eric the
AFA Robot, a two-ton mechanical
brain child" of a British woman
inventor, has just granted his first
Canadian interview
Brought here for exhibition at
the radio show, the mechanical
marvel held a group of newspa-

swer questions and obey COM
mands.
Greeting reporters with out
stretched hands, Eric led them to
seats, sat down himself, and told
them he was years old, unmar-
ried, liked blends and beer and
lived on electric currents"
Frequently during the interview,
at the command of reporters, the
robot got up, walked around the
room, waved his arms and even
managed a weak hic-cough when
asked what happened when he
drank too much beer"
A cleverly constructed assembly
of metal resembling a human be-

Plan for Farm Settlement
Urged Upon Canada

British settlement in Canada"
scheme before the governments Of
Canada and Great Britain.
The scheme, briefly, calls for the
British government to purchase
large tracts of land in blocks Of
5000 and 10000 acres, in the diff
ferent provinces of Canada, prin-
cipally in the west.
These blocks will be divided into
small farms of fifty to 100 acres,
on which selected immigrants from
various communities in Britain will
be placed and trained in mixed
farming, for five years. During that
time, in addition to his training,
each immigrant will also receive re-
Enumeration for his services from the
sale of portion of the product he
raises on his allotted acreage
At the end of the f1ve-year term
those who have made good as farm
ers will be permitted to remain in
Canada and to purchase land in
only one of the provinces.
