Along with compulsory education
we might also adopt compulsory
work. There was once a community
in which the law was that "If any
will not work, neither shall he eat,"
an, 1 history tells us that it had a
most wholesome effect on the com
munity. One of the towns in the
State is considering the matter of
adopting the slogan, "Help- put
folks to work." That would not be
a h i.l t-logan for any town.

four attempts at running a bank or

Why would not this be a good rule
in politics? Mr. Bryan has made
some three or four attempts to lead
the Hemoeratio party to victory and
has as often failed, and it therefore
seems that it would be the most nat
ural thing in the world for the Dem-
ratie party to discard his future
leadership.
Word comes from Washington
that the Department of Justice is
planning immediate prosecution of
all trusts or monopolies which do
iiot dissolve or take other steps to
obey the Sherman anti-trust law as
it has been interpreted by the Su
preme Court In the Standard Oil,
Tobacco and Fowder Trust cases.
Attorney General Wickersham de
clares that all such will be brought
before the courts as soon as proceed
ings can be instituted. But it is
likely to be some time yet before the
people of this country see any of the
trust magnates in jail. We have
only to remember that next year is
campaign year and the prosecution
of the trusts is to bo made an issue
in that campaign.
The (Jold Leaf has come to the
conclusion that it can find a better
us for its news columns than to fill
them up from week to week and
month to month with the doings
and movements of people who have
a. 1 ; 3 . - .1
uot euougn pnue in ineir own com

paper. There are people in this com
munity who will twist around in va
A . it
nous ways 10 get ineir names or
some little thing they have done in
the paper and then go over and bor
row their neighbor's paper to see
what it said about them. Those
who support their home paper loy
ally should always have the right of
way in its columns, and so far as the
Gold Leaf is concerned this will here
after be its policy.
Continued from Last Week
If you want to escape the heat and
flies and mosquitoes, flee to the
mountains, go where the cooling
breezes blow. Rest among the hills
and enjoy the pure invigorating at
mosphere and health-giving waters
of Western North Carolina the
"Switzerland of America."
The person seeking an ideal place
for a summer vacation can find both
comfort and pleasure in the delight
ful region of which lenoir la the chief
town and ceutre of trade and at
traction. The climate of this-section
is unsurpassed, the varied scenery of
mountain, hill aud valley lending a
charm to the country that is particu
larly inviting and restful.
I left my readers last week as we
were about starting on the trip to
Blowing Rock. The drive was
through a fine country and was made
in good time We arrived at the
Green Park hotel for dinner with ap
petites keenly whetted. Nowhere on
the entire trip did we find a finer
meal. The Green Park hotel is one
of the best resort hotels in all the
mountain country. It is situated
right near the famous "blowing
rock" from which the village derive?
its name, about two miles from the
village proper. I was surprised at
the number of persons who did not
visit the ''Rock" and seemed to
know nothing about why the place is
so called. The distance from Blow
ing Rock hotel, Watauga Inn and
the numbers of excellent boarding
houses that accommodate the
thousands of visitors every season is
not too great for a morning consti
tutional or an afternoon stroll aud
no visitor should go away without
seeing the "blowing rock."
This is a perpendicular rock wall
several hundred feet wide and as
many ftt deep at the head of an im
mense gorge leading out into a val
ley. Up this gorge the wind sweeps
at a great velocicy, stronger at times
than others of course, striking the
rock wall and sending the air cur
rent rushing high above the surface
level hence the name "Blowing
Rock." So "strong is the current as
it strikes the face of the rock and
blows upward and over it that light
objects such as handkerchiefs, pieces
of newspaper, etc., will come back
when tossed out into the abyss
below or toward it rather. A light
hat will perform the same trick but
the gentleman who tried it with his
straw hat had to go back to the
hotel bareheaded aud wear a cap
until he could do better. The wind
wh.s not very strong and he made
the mistake of throwing his hab too
far atid like the cat it never came
back.
Blowing Rock possesses many fea
tures and attractions peculiar to
itself. To quote the Charlotte Ob
server, "one need not be a lover of
Wordsworth to delight himself with
the southwesward-gazingchasmhere;
he need only have had the Lord God
who made these mountains breathe
into his body a living soul. Blowing
Rock's distinctive advantage is that
the gazer has no mountain tops to
climb but looks downward from a
plateau over four thousand feet
above sea level and sees everything
below."
The editors were entertained at
Blowing Rock iu characteristic style.
These mountain people (whose cul
ture and hospitality is only equaled
by the lavish gifts of Nature with
which this wonderful mountain coun
try is endowed) know how to do
things. In the afternoon after the
return from Boone on Thursday a
reception was given the ladies by
Mrs. Ransom (widow of thelateSena-
tor Ransom) at her elegant Lome,
which was greatly enjoyed by those
who were fortunate enough to be
present. Mrs. Ransom and her
charming daughter, Miss Esther,
were gracious hostesses and this
function was voted one of the most
delightful events of the trip to the
femiuine portion of the party.
At night the editors (and the la
dies of course) were entertained at a
dinner by the citizens of Blowing
Rock. Two lontr tables were erected
on the lawn in front of the Watauga
Inn where a bountiful and appetizing
feast was spread. There was every
thing to eat and drink that one
could ask for, with lovely ladies and
attentive gentlemen to wait on you
and bid vou "helo yourselt
Manv "enioved a drive over the
Airmen II. Cone estate and a view of
the h' i"' me mansion, crystal lakes,
deer .. and splendid driveways
that around the vast enclosure.
In this connection I am going to tell
. -. . . - . . t
a little story ui a gracious uct ui
Mrs. Cone. At each entrance to the
grounds there is a sign which reads
that automobiles are not auoweu in
side. The cause of this is thus ex
plained: Mrs. Cone's carriage horses
(carrying nerseii or visiting menus;
are liable to be frightened by auto
mobiles, and the heavy machines
break down the roads when driven
too near the edge of the driveways.
In the editorial party there was a
young lady (and her mother) who
had come over from Lenoir in their
car to bring some of the party. Per
mission was asked to drive the auto
mobile in the grounds, no other con
veyance being available for the pur
pose. Mrs. Cone telephoned that she
would gladly grant the request but
she could not be inconsistent. Like
requests of friends and even relatives
had been denied a rule had been es
tablished and it would not be right
to ignore it in one instance and en
fnroA it in another. However, not
wishing to deprive the visitors of any
pleasure that might be theirs, she
jvould send her carriage down for
them and the drive could be taten.
A sweet and considerate act, wasn't
IS?
And that is "how come" some of
our party were riding in the private
carriage of the "Lady of the Manor"
when the rest of us were "hiking it"
along in livery rig9.
I did not ero with the party to
an old fashion country dinner was
given complimentary to the editors
and their wives and daughters. This
was due to failure to get transporta
tion out of Lenoir, after specific
agreement had been made with the
liveryman. But there were others,
probably a dozen or more, and I had
mighty good company in my disap
pointment among them being Edi
tor H. C. Martin, of the Iieuoir News,
who was host of the press conven
tion, (aud an ideal one he was too,
alert and indefatigable in bis efforts
to see that everything went right
and everybody had a good time)
and John Sherrill.the doomed-to-life-servituda
secretary-treasurer of th'
North Carolina Press Association,
and their wives, together with Mrs.
M. We had to bide our time and go
next day to Blowing Rock, the Boone
trip, leaving Blowing Rock the same
morning, being all that we were de
prived of. But that it was "worth
while" I have every reason to believe.
I was told what I had missed until I
felt like giving that Lenoir livery
stable man an extra cussiu' behind
his back. The whole couutry side
turned out to do honor to the occa
sion, each one, man and woman, old
and young trying to outdo the other
in seeing that Boone sunered nothing
by comparison with any other place
the strangers had been or might go.
But how much thev suffered in
'vittles" destroyed is a story that
never will be told.
Here I am troinjr to draw on the
Charlotte Observer for the following:
Boone, a village of about four
hundred people, lies in a green, fertile
valley which will become the scene ot
busy development once a railroad
has been built. Here at
Boone were the real mountain people,
a sight for all who may have been
misled by the muck-raker or grafting
reformer to see. They were rich in
health, couteutment and simple
abundance, at least. An organizer
who formed a Watauga county farm
ers union at uooue tins same uay
said afterward that the Watauga
farmers made one of the most intelli
gent and best-appearing audiences
he ever addressed.
Of the Linville Edgemont trip from
Blowing Rock I will let the same
staff writer tell the story for me.
Why bother to write myself when an
other has said the thing so much bet
ter thanlcan? Thentooldid notgo
by way of Edgemout on the return
trip, M'rs. Manning and I setting our
faces still further northward, into
Tennessee. Farewells were said Fri
day night aud early Saturday morn
ing before we were astir those who
had gone the entire mountain trip
(quite a number all told) left us at
Eseeola Inn and departed for Edge
mont (terminus of the Carolina &
Northwestern Railway) on the home
ward journey. But to the article in
question:
"Returning to Blowing Rock, (from
Boone) those members of the party
who could finish, the trip left next
day for Linville over the famous
Youahlossee road. Through twenty
miles of rhododendron, laurel and
heavy forest this road circles high
toward the point where Grandfather's
upturned face of rock stares at the
heavens forever. One last graceful
circle and the travelers were looking
out over the valley of Linville river
iu what was until recently Mitchell
county. Here, at four thousand
feet above sea level, are delectable
greens such as the lowlands in North
Carolina's latitude can never know.
Central in the picturj is Linville Inn,
having an annex picturesquely
weatherboarded with chestnut bark.
There are many people seemingly
they include all who ever stopped
here for any considerable length of
time who regard Linville as the
most delightful spot in all the moun
tains. Marveling to find Linville Inn
almost full when other mountain re
sorts were just open for their first
few guests, the party was told by
these Linville visitors that they con
sider Linville such a goodthingas to
render undesirable the taking of any
chances on a stay. Golf, fishing in
trout streams and lakes, Grandfather
mountain and altogetherexceptional
accommodations are among Lin
ville's assets as a resort. Its nearest
railroad station Is Montezuma, two
miles away. It will be the capital of
the new county of Avery, changing
its name to Newlaud (for Lieutenant
Governor Newland, of Lenoir), if the
contest with Montezuma and Elk
Park goes its way.
"Having thus gone northward from
Lenoir to Blowing Rock and Boone
and from Blowing Rock westward to
Linville, the party now turned their
faces down the mountains south
ward seventeen miles to Edgemont,
the northern terminus of the Carolina
& Northwestern Railroad. This turn
pike, promoted by the Carolina &
Northwestern, represents the most
substantial construction and the
most impressive engineering work of
any seen. Its curves along the faces
of tremendous cliffs are marvelous to
I behold. Members of the party to
whom the Alps and the Rockies are
familiar agreed that hero is one of
the most wonderful roads iu the
world. Yet such is the skill of con
struction that grades are easy and
safety assured throughout. A truly
hospitable welcome at Edgemont, a
new village whose resort possibilities
are very considerable, ended with the
newspaper men, women and children
on board train again. It will be a
memorable trip in recollection and it
should be even more memorable in
results."
We fels somewhat lonely after the
departure of our friends, some of the
best fellows and finest women in the
State, choice spirits with whom asso
ciation is a pleasure and an inspira
tion always, but with the truest of
friends and best of traveling compan
ions still with me, in pursuance of a
puipose formed before we left home
1 was readv to nan tne iecna ex

to Johnson City, to take a trip over
the Carolina, Clinchfield & Ohio Rail
road back into North Carolina.
Apprehending that I have already
consumed the space allotted me, a
halt is called for the present.

FOR GOOD ROADS.
A Correspondent Thinks That The
United States Government Should
Help Pay For the Establishment
and Maintenance of Better Rural
High way a.
While our town of Henderson is
moving forward we should not for
get our rural friends, and their far
most pressing need and the most
pressing need of the county is good
roads, and improved highways. We
have the finest railways in the world
and the poorest highways. The
government has helped to build
h-ie railroads and develop this
olendid system of long distance
transportation. Why should it not
help to build the equally important
system of short distance transporta
tion the country highway over which
the produce of the farms must be
hauled before it reaches these nation
al highways? Of the 2,150,000
miles of dirt roads in this country the
government is today using aver 1,
000,000 miles for star routes and
rural delivery service. It has estab
lished them into post roads, and it
is actually using them every day in
the year, except Sundays and holi
days to carry the mails. These roads
have been constructed chiefly by the
farmers and are maintained by taxes
in a large measure paid by them.
The government has contributed
nothing to their construction and
contributes nothing to their main
tenance. The government uses the railroads
to carry the mails, but it pays for
the service, and usually pays a high
price for it. On the other hand, it
not only uses the farmers' road jor
the identical purpose without pay
ing a cent for its use or maintenance,
but requires the farmers, besides fur
nishing the road," also to keep it in
good condition; and if he fails or re
fuses to do so it discontinues his
mails. The Hon. F. M. Simmons
has introduced a bill in the Senate,
and it will pass. The bill appropri
ates $ 1,000,000 to be expended by
the secretary of agriculture in co
operating with the Postmaster Gen
eral in the improvement of roads
over which rural delivery is or may
be established, provided the local
authorities shall contribute an equal
amount for the improvement of
routes selected. Men of Vance coun
ty, act now, we need better roads,
and the best way to get them is by
bond issue, say one hundred thous
and dollars. For good roads bring
about better conditions in country
HI
Good roads exert a material in
fluence in promoting or retarding
education. In short bad roads tend
to insolate rural conditions. They ren
der it more difficult to pass about,
impede travel, restrict intercourse,
interfere with school attendance and
church going, promote illiteracy.
and are in many other ways a hin
drance to progress. The value of
good roads is fully appreciated. The
need is felt. Conditions now make
their betterment imparative. The
people have at last fully awakened
to their advantage: They are ready
to participate in the work. Eco
nomically, industrially, socially, and
iu every respect the subject invites
action. A hundred thousand dollar
bond issue for Vance county. This
is progress "ou the slogan." Think
and act. C. F. TANKERSLY.
BRIEF LOCAL NEWS ITEMS.
The Henderson Cotton Mill has
completed No. 2 mill building, and
will soon have the machinery in po
sition. There will be 8000 spindles
driven by electricity.
The Vance County Farmers' Union
will- meet on Saturday before the
second Sunday in each month until
further notice. All locals in the
county are requested to take notice.
Work at the Harriet cotton mills,
No. land 2 was suspended Friday
for ten days to let the operatives
have a vacation. The Henderson
Cotton Mill is also giving its opera
tives a vacation of several days.
The Castalia correspondent of the
Franklin Times says that nothing
is being given out to the public, but
in the next few days the promoters
of the Henderson and Castalia rail
road are sure it will assume such
tangible shade that all will be assur
ed of its construction to this place.
ine nret issue ot i ne unurcn An
nals, to be published monthly under
the auspices of the Brotherhood of
St. Andrews of Holy Innc cants
Parish, appeared last week. The
rector, Rev. I. W. Hughes, is editor
aud Mr. B. H. Perry is business man
ager. The Annals is a ten page
paper and is gotten up in a very
neat and attractive form.
A company of northern capitalists
are soon to begin again the opera
tion of the Portis gold mine in
Franklin county. It is .said that
long before the Civil war much gold
was taken from these mines which
made them famous. They will use
the latest improved methods of
washing the rich ore, which will
doubtless give satisfactory yields to
its owners.
The contract for building the new
Methodist Episcopal church at North
Henderson will be let this week and
work on the new building will begin
right away. The new church will
cost about .f 1,200 and will be a nice
modern wooden structure. It will
be built ou the same lot where the
other one was burned, but will prob
ably not be in the same place.

The County Home.
Superintendent J. W. Oakley, of
the county home, says the five houses
for the inmates are in good repair.
One house is comparatively new and
the other four were improved last
year, but that the house occupied
by his family is badly in need of
about $500 worth of repair work,
which the grand jury has recom
mended to be undertaken.
He also states that the crops are
iu good condition now. Corn,
wheat, oats and potatoes are the
crops raised, and while the hail
storm reduced the wheat yield about
two-thirds, the superintendent ex
pects to harvest 150 barrels of corn
and JtoO or 400 bushel of potatoes.
Two mules and a horse are owned
to produce this. There are also 9
head of cattle and 24 hogs on the
place, 15 of the hogs to be killed this
fall to provide for the G colored and
5 white inmates, none of whom are
able to work.
Among the number of inmates are
two Confederate soldiers who prefer
the county home to the Soldiers'
Home at Raleigh. This speaks well
for Superintendent Oakley and the
county commissionert, who are so
generously providing for the infirm
poor.
All the vegetables that can be used
are raisedt and a good quantity is
sold. The Inmates of the home are
provided with the same fare that
the superintendent's family has.
Last year the commissioners ap
pointed a committee to purchase
100 fruit trees which Mr. Oakley of
fered to put out without cose but to
his disappointment this has not been
done.

That the members of the Farmers'
Union of this section will orgaulze a
pool of the tobacco crop next fall
was ihe firm opinion of one who at
tended the big rally and picnic of
