.HONoR IN PRINT"

The Greensboro Daily News has
an editorial in an issue of this week
entitled "Honor on the Hoof' in
which it strongly intimates that
Ashes present representative, T. C.
Bowie. is putting Ashe in a most
dishonorable light by seeking to pass
bill that would allow the county
commissioners to levy a tax in ac-
cordance with the ability of their
people to pay. The general theme of
the article is that honor should come
before the price of cattle and potatoes
and that the Gentleman from Ashe
put these debts on the people.
If there is honor on the hoof,
there is also such thing as honor in
print. It is a matter of record that
the first bonds put on this county
were voted on it by the people who
were anxious to have a good road to
every mans front door. It is also a
matter Of record that Mr.. Bowie
stumped the county against issuing
these bonds.
It is also matter of record that
cattle were selling at a high price
and that had times kept on as they
were when the bonds were voted, no
trouble would have been had in pay
ing them. All farm products were
high. A man could go to West Vir-
ginia or western states and work out
enough to pay heavy taxes in short
time. Ashe county was far from the
first in the state to default in it's
debt payment, and it is willing now
to make an adjustment to pay what
it can and to augment those pay
ments as business picks nap. @
Whether the law allows us to set
a limit on our tax rate or. not, eco
nomic conditions will see to it that
one is set. If we were to be sold out
lock, stock, and barrel, we would not
bring enough to settle our debt as
things now stand.
We are simply unable to pay in
high money the debt we made when
we borrowed cheap money.
More than 1000 homes and farms
were advertised by the tax collector
in Ashe county for delinquent taxes
for the year of 1888. Look at this
enormous list of people who were I'M
able to settle their taxes, though they
had the advantage of low rate and
low assessment. The ability to pay
taxes or anything else depends upon
what you have to pay with.
Thousands Upon thousands of stock
and bond holders have found this to
be true, SO true that they were unable
to collect cent out of many invest
ments that went down with the de-
preston. But we are not repudiating
our debts. We are merely asking our
people to wait. In a bad situation,
that is the only honorable thing that
we can do. In all probability the
Greensboro editor has been fortunate
enough to always have enough money

On Their Toes

Heads of State Departments and
institutions are making good use of
the hearings accorded them by the
appropriations committees Of the
House and Senate. In most cases the
Advisory Budget Commission cut
their requests and having been on
what consider near starvation rations
for the past two years (and not much
weather. the two preceding years9
the boys and girls hope to impress
the appropriations groups with the
gravity of their situations.

Slot Machines

Past legislature have attempted to
run slot machines out of the State by
passing laws against them. The pres
ent legislature is of the same mind
but since the penal laws have not
been successful, according to many
members this General Assembly
hopes to tax them out of existence.
That explains the upping of taxes on
the little machines with holes for
your nickels, dimes and quarters
rather than any hope of Increasing
State revenues.

Liquor and Governors

Some astute political observers in
Raleigh express the opinion that
passage Of any bill to call a referen-
dunn on the question Of liberalizing
North Cardinals bone-dry liquor laws
BY the present Legislature would work
decidedly to the benefit of the poten-
tial candidacy Of Clyde r. Hoey, sill
ver-tongued Shelby orator, for gov
ernor next year. These political WISE
acres figure that Mr.. Hoey would
lead once more the fight against
liquor and that he would be success
full. They say that this would be in
terpreted as a mandate from the
people and that the Shelby attorney
would be handed the Democratic
nomination for Governor on figura-
tive silver platter.

r. L. DoughtOn

The boys who are supposed to know
their political stuff have doped it out
that the fate of the sales tax may
have more than a little to do with
Congressman R. L. Doughton's deci-
sion on the campaign to get him in
the gubernatorial race next year. Mr..
Doughton led the fight against the
sales tax in Congress just few
years ago. If the present General
Assembly adopts a sales tax as a
necessity he would either be forced
to support it or reverse himself, the
dopesters sy. It looks like the legis-
lature is going to reenact the sales
tax and you can make. your bets on
Congressman Doughton.

Sales Tax

If membership of Senate and
House finance committees is any in
dex to the complexion of the General
Assembly the three per cent sales tax
will be enacted without prolonged po-
position. Of course, there will be vio-
lent opposition but the votes in COM
mittee do not indicate any real threat
of defeat or an imasse on the retail
levy. Practically all proposals against
the sales tax have been promptly vot-
ed down in committee meetings.

A. H. Graham

Meantime, friends of Lieutenant
Governor A. H. (Sandy) Graham are
leaving no stone unturned in smooth
ing out the ground for him to make
the race for Governor. Many friends
of the second-high man of North
Carolina express confidence that
neither Hoey or Doughton will make
the race and that Mr. Graham will be
the next Governor of North Carolina.
It's all being kept very quiet but so
far the Senate's presiding officer
hasn't done anything that observers
classify as political mistake and he
has said that his luck with this Gen.
eral Assembly probably may have
decided influence on this decision in
the gubernatorial contest

Gasoline Taxes

It looks like everybody and his
brother want to get their hands into
tax money paid by automobile and
truck owners of North Carolina.
Around legislative halls can be heard
many difference proposals for using
gasoline and license money for other
purposes than roads. Some want it to
pay local government debts; others
to establish employment offices and
others for the schools. But the
States roads, especially the secon-
Diary highways, are not in the pink
of condition and Legislators from rur-
al counties know that. Also some
bridges levy tolls for passage. It's
likely to be merry fight before the
question of diversion of highway
funds is settled.

4. 7. Fountain

In some quarters on Capitol Hill
the Ways are asking if former
Lieutenant Governor r. T. Fountain,
of Rocky Mount, is a political foun-
tain Of youth. In Raleigh last week
Mr.. Fountain admitted to newspa-
per men that he is seriously con-
sidering" running for the Senate in
opposition to Senator Josiah w. Bail
ey next spring. Mr.. Fountain serious
ly considered running for Governor
quite while before stepping across
the line that made him candidate
in 1882 There is considerable opinion
that Mr.. Bailey will also face opposi-
ton in the person of Governor En-
ringhaus but the Governor is holding
his peace on the subject.
New Star
Arising in the political heavens is
the star Of Senator Harriss Newman.
Of New Hanover, shining on the office
of Lieutenant Governor. From close
personal friends of the Chairman Of
the Senate Committee on Finance
come word that he will make the
race. Senator Newman is silent. If
he runs he will face potential opposi-
ton from two other Senators, w. G.
cousin Willie) Clark, of Edgecombe,
and President Pro Tenn Paul D..
Grady, of Johnston. Definitely in the
race is former Senator George Nc
Neill, of Fayetteville, a foe observers
believe cannot be safely discounted.

STOCK LIST FIRM

NEW YORK, March 15.-Small but

A wide assortment Of shares pushed

traders who thought Wall Streets
latest fit of blues was being carried to

But a drop of about dollar a bale

grains and pronounced weakness in
such staples as rubber and coffee, soon
put a damper upon what cheer the
share market was able to muster.

on the courts to defeat the injunction.
All efforts of the capitalist press, legis-
latiye means, and of the higher officials
in the unions are now directed to finding
such loophole for an excuse to prevent
strike The fundamental line for this
has been laid down by Percy c. Magnus,
president of the New York Board of Trade,
spokesman of big business in New York,
to their Mayor LaGuardia in letter.
"A strike against the decision of the
court is revolution" writes Magnus.
"Spokesmen of the transfers union
threaten that if the court of this state
rcr 'orTls its duty there will be no appeal
to the higher courts, but there will be
use CT force against the business interests
of New York
Magnus goes into details to explain
the procedure for appealing a court de-
clslon by the use OF checks and balances
in the Constitution. He shows clearly that
the bosses are especially alarmed that the
workers are getting wise to the fraudulent
nature of capitalist democracy-are no
longer content to let their cases drag in
courts for months and years, while their
wages are cut, union men fired and COM
PAW unions are set up.
The fact that the bosses express such
alarm over the display of power Monday,
undoubtedly serves to convince every
worker that strike is the most effective
weapon for smashing the injunction.
Transfers and longshorenen should
utilize every moment to organize their
ranks, place leadership in the hands of
elected representatives, and strike the
minute the open-shopper Humphrey signs
the injunction.
