it is good betting.
On the opposite hand, there is nor

G. o. P. expects to carry simply be-
cause it is "normally' Republican,

to remain Republican. Take my own
old home state of Iowa. For genera
tons, until 1882, it always went Re-
publican in national elections. It's in
terests were Democratic Gin the old
days., but it went Republican because
it was settled largely by Union sol

when it finally went Democratic
think it did SO reluctantly, because it
was starved into it. / am sure that
it still, sentimentally, is for the G..

YOUTH DECIDES FOR SELF
In short, it is a confusing situa-

In my day a vote was cast as the
voters father cast his. The boys and

considering the jam in which their
progenitors have landed them, can't
blame them.

That is problematic.

said. For we want to be entirely fair

may be able to find something of
benefit to the gasoline companies as
well as to the public
1--WE are going to make an intensive
study of freight rates on gasoline for
one thing, in the hope of getting low
err rates since a reduction in trans
portatiOn costs would help both the
gasoline distributors and the consum-
erS."
The commission is also going to
m axe careful study of all the North
Carolina laws which in any way have
bearing upon gasoline or the opera
ton of service stations Barker said.
The law schools at both Duke Uni
versity and the University of North
Carolina are now starting a survey of
all these laws for the commission and
will turn over their findings to it
when completed.
Chairman Barker intimated that the
commission was going to investigate
the present inspection tax of a quar-
ter of a cent a gallon to see if this
tax could not be reduced, since indi-
cations now are that only a small part
of the revenue from the tax is being
used for inspection work.

pointed out, intimating that it is i'm
possible to hope for additional cur
rent revenue from which to build new
roads But he pointed out that the
next General Assembly, in seeking adj
ditional funds for the highways,
would do we'll to look into the big re-
duction in debt service needs, where
it would find that by 1889 it will need
only $6,300,O0O year for debt SER
vice on highway bonds, instead of
about 100000 a year as at present.
Accordingly, it would be possible to
sell about $25,OO0,O0O worth of new
highway bonds, to mature in Is years
instead of 80 years, and pay the in
tcrest and principal on these at the

Gress, and still keep the debt service
requirements under what they are at
present. The debt service require
ments on the ether highway bonds
will laso decrease very rapidly after
1910, so that even with $25,000.0O0
worth Of new bonds, the total debt
service needs will be less than at any
time during the past Is years. Due
to the present excellent fiscal cofldi-
ton Of the State, it would be possible
to sell this 25,O0O,OOO worth Of new
road bonds at rate of interest very
much less than that being paid ION
the old 80 year road bonds, Johnson
said, especially if the new bonds were
issued to mature in Is instead of 80
years. These new bonds could be sold
in 1897 but with a provision that the
interest period would not begin I'M
til 1889 or 1910, Johnson pointed out.
'"ThuS, if we should continue to set
aside for the Is year period begin
ming in 1889 the same amount of
money we are now setting aside from
the highway revenue for debt ser
vice, we could issue more highway
bonds and still maintain present debt
service requirements and at the same
time build new links needed in the
main trunk highways or rebuild old
roads that will take care of present
day traffic and eliminate the constant
repairing of old and inadequate roads
which really can never be adequately
repaired" Johnson said. '"This, how
ever, is a matter for the taxpayers
and the next General Assembly to
decide.
"The question still remains, how
ever, as to whether we shall continue
to pay the present gasoline and motor
vehicle taxes and have new and bet
ter roads, or whether we shall try to
continue to get along with inadequate
patched and repaired roads which can
never be made right because they
were never built substantially enough
to carry present day traffic. 1t is a
sure thing that the public cannot
have a reduction in gasoline and
motor vehicle taxes and more new
choose between one or the other.
But 1 have not been expressing an
opinion, l have been giving you the
facts as they exist. 1 believe they are
worthy of thoughtful consideration"

Liberty C. E. Union
Meeting Was Held
Sunday Evening

Liberty Vance Christian Endeavor
was in regular meeting last Sunday
evening, with What services should
the State and community render?",
as the topic of discussion for the
even program. The topic being divided
into a number of subheads which
were fully explained The first was
the corrections of State institutions.
The jails should train their members
to higher idaels, feed better, and try
to have a homelike atmosphere. The
reform schools should teach love anc
kindness which would mean more to
the students than harsh law enforce
ment an in some cases whippings.
Services my State and community
renders-the State furnishes gram
mar and high schools also materials
for the use in them; State colleges are
also furnished by the State to train
the boys and girls to teach in the
schools SO that the younger children
may have the best to train them in
early life. 4
State institutions for the physically
handicapped. We have schools for
the blind and deaf and dumb, ST
they may secure educational training
We also have in most communities,
and in some states places are provid-
ed to care for, those who are unable
to care for themselves such as the
old aged and the afflicted. We have
the old age homes, State hospitals
and institutions for the afflicted chill
dren. In these places the patients
have medical attention at all times
and a we'll organized system of edu-
cation.
We were very glad to have our pas
tor, Rev S. E. Maddren give a few
remarks on the topic. In his talk he
mentioned the general theme for the
youth of today. youth Building A
New World" 1t is time for us to start
practicing this theory, and to begin
in the home and church. When this
is put into practice it will greatly i'm
prove the community in religious and
civic conditions.
Rev. W. A. Grissom was present and
added greatly to the program. AS his
topic he used "BeA- Good Christian
/ and YOU will be a good citizen" A
long time ago the church and State
were closely connected, but became
separated and now it seems in many
cases that the citizens have church
service religion, and live outside lives
during the week. Until we have Chris
tan leaders for the community, State
and Nation this kind of religion
stands a good chance to exist. Wher
we concrete a feeling of the need OF
love and mercy in the hearts of oul
criminals instead one of punishment

commend the paymer. Of any of these
claims.
The second reason for the belief
that the claims will never be paid,
even if recommended, is the opposi-
ton regarded as sure to develop in
the General Assembly from the coun-
ties which are not seeking refunds.
These counties, or rather the repre-
sentatives from these counties, are
regarded as certain TO oppose any re-
fund on the basis that if it is made,
it would have to come out of high
way maintenance and betterment funds
with the result that the other coun-
ties would have to do without some
$4,000, 900 worth of new road work so
that the other counties could be paid
that much for old roads already built,
some of which are already worn out.
It was this development which
blocked the enactment of the bills in
PRODUCED in the 1885 General Assem-
blv to refund some 100000 to AZ
counties and prevented the bills ever
getting out of the committees on
roads. The bill to create the commits
sion to study the road debt claims
was brought out as substitute and
compromise bill to prevent these
counties from getting mad, or as mad
as they would have become if their
claims had been turned down cold, es-
pecially since there was enough
money in the highway fund in 1888
to pay these claims.
But all of the highway surplus Is
going to be expended or pledged for
expenditure by the time the 1887 Gen
eral Assembly gets here, so that there
