2 THE WILMINGTON MESSENGER, FRIDAY MAY 15, 1903. THE TAX QUESTION. The Raleigh News and Observer of Sunday was a hot number. Brother Taniels often pitches into the Southern Hallway Company. It is nothing: un- usual for him to attack that corpora tion through the editorial columns of his paper; but on this occasion, he threw some extra hot shot into Colonel A- B. Andrews camp. He stormed the first vice president's citadel and he Bhelled the woods generally. When the state corporation commission meets next month to assess for taxation the railroads of the state the Southern had better have on all its defensive armor, for it is likely that it will be called upon to defend itself against one of the fiercest attacks ever made upon it from certain quarters. The News and Ob server in Sunday's issue devotes three and a half columns of its editorial page to showing up the conduct of this cor poration in trying to dodge what is alleged to be the just and proper -valuation of its tangible property in this state. It seems that this company has kicked and kicked strenuously against a valuation of its road at a sum a little less than fourteen thousand dollars a mile while its secretry. Mr. Josiab F. Hill, in a suit against the company brought in the federal court by certain catizens of Danville. Va.. swears that the road was worth forty thousand dollars a mile and perhaps more. As to the true value per mile of the Southern railroad or of any other rail road in this state we know nothing. We do know, though, that it is human nature for overy corporation and for every individual (there are som? isolat ed exceptions we know) to get off with as light taxes as possible. There is a general cry that all prop erty in this state is valued too low when it comes to giving it in for taxation. (There are exceptions in this case too.) There is a general move to have all property in this state valued for taxa tion at its true value and also, which is just as important, to get all prop erty, whether corporate or individual, on the tax books. Could these two things be accomplished the rate of tax ation could be greatly lowered, and the man who gives in his property honestly and pays his taxes on it would not be compelled, as he is now, to pay, in ad aption to his own just taxes, those of that large class of tax dodgers. All property, whether corporate or individ ual, should be made to bear its share of the burdens of city, county and state government. While the News and Observer is af ter the railroads so strongly it would do the state and the honest tax payers a good service if it would occasionally turn its guns on that class of our citi zens who, by hiding their property or claiming to be non-residents of city or state, escape payment of just taxes. Railroads may be sinners in the matter of dodging taxes, but they are by no means the only ones and, therefore, we do not believe they alone should come in for abuse. By all means let the rail roads be forced to pay the taxes justly due, but do not let the good work stop there. Lt all tax dodgers be forced to toe the mark. If the corporations are made to pay taxes on the full value of theiir property, then the same should f be required of individuals. If individ uals are allowed to pay taxes on only a third, a half or two thirds of their property, then it is not right to require corporations to pay tax on full valua tion. That is all any one should de mand. Xorth Carolina in the rapid progress and development of her resources in the past twenty years owes much to ihe railroads traversing her territory, es pecially to the three great systems, and while these corporations should not Xe allowed to escape the payment of their Just dues to the state, they ought not to be considered as the enemies of the state and of the people as foreign corporations which are the legitimate prey of the individuals of the state and of the state itself whenever opportunity to fleece them arises. It is to the in terest of these roads to build up the in dustries of our state to have two fac tories where there was only one be fore: to make the land produce two bushels of farm products where it yield ed only one before; to have two pro gressive, wide awake farmers where there was only one before. Unless the people prosper the railroads will lose money. It does not pay to operate a railroad through a barren country. The people's interests are not hostile to those of the railroads. It is iust the reverse the railroads interests nre bound up in those of the people. Dr. Crum. the colored gentleman whom President Roosevelt was so de termined to provide with a comfortable berth at the expense of the feelings of the citizens of Charleston. S. C. has run up against an unexpected snag and it sec.r.s that the berth is not so soft as he and the president supposed It to be. Crum sent in his accounts the other day to the treasury department and asked that his pay be remitted. In reply the department called his atten- The Formula tells rove's Chronic Chill Cmit Not a patent medicine : a thin spirituous liquid, of a pleasant bitter taste, made of Fluid Extract PERUVIAN BARK Fluid Extract POPLAR BARK Fluid Extract BLACK ROOT Fluid Extract PRICKLY ASH BARK Fluid ILxirzct DOG WOOD BARK Fluid Extract SARSAPARJLLA It ures the Chills General Tonic. i. tion to an act of congress which pro vides that where the president makes a recess appointment which could have been made and confirmed during a ses sino of the senate the appointee cculd draw no pay until his appointment had been confirmed at the next session of I congress.

Dr. Crum certainly cannot receive one cent of pay as collector of the port of Charleston until the congress which meets next December acts on his nomination, and it would seem from the wording of the statute above referred to that should congress reject his nomination or re fuse' to act upon it he would not get any pay at all for his services. That the senate will confirm his nomination we do not believe. It is most likely that Mr. Roosevelt's friend will get nothing but the honor as his remunera tion for holding the position of collector of customs of Charleston, i There is quite a stir in newspaper circles in Charlotte. A few days ago The Observer announced that it would soon start an afternoon edition. The News, the only afternoon daily now published in that city, in its issue of the 9th contained the following under a "scare" head: "There have been some important de velopments in newspaper circles today. On the heels of the announcement by the Observer Company that they pur pose starting an afternoon paper cornea the report that a morniing daily is to be established. The rsews learns from a thoroughly reliable source that a company composed of the leading bus iness men of the city 13 proposed, and if the plans on foot are carried out a morning paper with ample capital will be started in this city at once. "Several gentlemen interested stated to a News reporter today that there had long been felt a need for a morn ing daily in this city and this section of North Carolina, that was democrat ic, and that they had no doubt that such a paper iproperly conducted would receive the warm support of the great majority of the best people of Charlotte and this- section of the state. A meet ing of prominent business men was held this morning and the matter was dis. cussed at length It was the unanimous opinion of those present that Charlotte should and must have' a morning dem ocratic paper. Another meeting of those interested will be held in a few days. and at that time it is expected that r.n organization will be effected and ar rangements made for the immediate issue of a democratic morning paper in this cty." When it was announced that Gov ernor Aycock had pardoned "Woody, the man convicted in Guilford county for an assault on a young girl because the girl had made affidavit that she had at the solicitation of her father sworn falsely against the young man The Messenger demanded the prosecu tion of the girl and her father. We are glad to note that one newspaper in the state, at least, has taken our view of the case and declares that justice de- mands that the father and girl be pun- lished. The crime for which Woody was convicted and sent to the peniten tiary is held in more abhorrence by the people of the- south than any other. This girl at the instigation of her fath er, perhaps to try to save her reputa tion, testified against this man falsely, destroyed his good name and deprived Him if Viic 15hrtv Tfip-ht hpre the I courts should make a forceful example of the consequences perjurers should expect. In its editorial comments on the con federate memorial day exercises in Norfolk The Landmark, of that city, pays a high and we know well deserved compliment to a young North Carolin ian. The exercises included the unveil ing of a monument to the confederate dead. The address was delivered by Mr. W. T. Shannonhouse, a Hertford boy." The Landmark publishes his address in full. In commenting o it that paper says: "The oration delivered by Mr. Wil liam T. Shannonhouse at the unveiling of the handsome shaft erected by the Daughters and Sons of the Confederacy is published in full elsewhere in to day's Landamrk. It will repay careful reading. An eloquent, feeling, and dig nified utterance, free from any trace of bitterness and yet holding firmly to the historic truth that the cause of the Confederacy was just, the address de livered by Mr. Shannonhouse shows what our southern young men of to day can do when they have a:i oppor tunity. The old fire and strength are here yet." The sons of old Carolina often wander far from home because they think they can better their condition-by so doing, but wherever they go they make their mark. The New York World on Sunday celebrated the twentieth anniversary of Mr. Pulitzer's purchase of thai paper. It on that day published a regular edi tion of 136 pages, containing LOSS col umns. The presses were started at 9 o'clock the night before, the signal for starting up being the firing of a can non. Its circulation for that day was 515.707 copies in the city of Greater New York and 307,272 outside of the city. The paper states that its income for the twenty years has been J67.00S.244.73.

TIIREATEXED ROOSEVELT'S LIFE. A Man Arretted in San Joise, Cali fornia, Yenterdny for Supposed De isKTiiM Upon the President Life, xi r. It osevelt Tonr of Yesterday. San Jose, May 11. Clay Taylor, alias Professor Putte, was arrested to'.lay for supposed designs upon the life of the president. He has served three terms in prison, it is alleged that he wrote to the president. He is also accused of recent anarchistic utterances. President Roosevelt today gave the people of the county an object lesson on the evils 01 vandalism, while at Santa Cruz this afternoon he was taken to the big tree grove. Almost the first sight tht greeted his eyes as he enter ed the park was one of the big trees with thousands of business and per sonal cards tacked on it. Tourists for years have been placing their cards upon the tree and it began to look more like a receptacle for bits of paper than it did one of the wonders of nature. The president instantly expressed his disapproval of such a procedure and a little later when asked to make a speech called attention to the defacement of the trees and said he hoped tho people of California would see to it that such vandalism was stopped. He also inti mated that he would like to see the cards taken down. Later when the president went for a walk through the park the members of his party, togeth er with members of the reception com mittee, tore down the cards. Pajaro, May 11. The presidential train left Delmont at S o'clock this morning. An attachment of the Fif teenth infantry, commanded by Captain Swett, accompanied the president from his hotel to the train. After the men had been drawn in line, the president stood in front of them and addressing Captain Swett asked him to convey his thanks to the officers and men of the Fifteenth infantry for the good care they had taken of him during his stay at Delmont. A company of this regi ment guarded the hotel last night and kept intruders from the grounds. At Pajaro a stop of ten minutes was made during which President Roosevelt made a short aoaress to tne crowa couectea at the station. San Jose, Cal., May 11. From Pajaro. the president went to anta Cruz, a picturesque city and seaside resort on the northeastern shore of Monterey bay, where the party remained until noon. Several thousand people throng ed the streets. On his way to San Jcse the party made a brief stop at Felton to visit the grove of Redwood tre?s of the Santa Clara valley. At SantaClara Cruz mountains well known to the travellers. At San Jose which was reached during the afternoon the presi dent was tendered an ovation. He was shown the most famous orchards and vineyards of this section of the state and warmly expressed his appreciation of the Santa Clara valley. At Santa the old Jesuit college was visited and at Campbell where a large number of fruit growers and farmers had assem bled, the president spoke a few words. The school children of this city were reviewed in front of the McKinley mon ument in St. James square. The night will be passed by President Roosevelt in has private car at the station here. To morrow morning he will proceed to Sari Franctisco, making stops at StanfoJ university and Burlingame.

Sheriff Stevens has been notified by Governor Aycock to stay the execution of Fred Vick until the 30th of May. Vick is now in jail here and was sentenced to : be hanged next Saturday, May 16th, for committing a nameless crime upon an old colored woman near Fremont When first tried for the offense he was sen tenced to be hanged last October. His counsel took an appeal to the supreme court, which tribunal confirmed the ac tion of the lower court and Vick was sentenced to hang next Saturday by the governor, who has now given a re prieve until the 30th. "Judge" Hugh Humphrey was not at all in a good humor this morning when he appeared at the door of his cham ber of justice. When asked if had any news he replied that he performed a marriage caremony on Saturday night about 12 o'clock for a couple who came in on the train from Wilson. The judge said: "I had retired, but I got up and dressed and came down to my office and had to help the grdom look up the register of deeds to get the li cense. After the ceremony the bride and groom turned and walked out of the office and never even said thank you, much less offer to pay for my ser vices." This is a splendid opportunity to remind those who contemplate a voy age on the matrimonial sea that in ad dition to laying aside enough to buy the license they should also enclose not les than a brand new five dolar bill, neatly folded in the papers, for the minister or the justice, if they expect to have good luck. Sheriff Stevens has returned from Newport News, where he went to arrest Jake Lee, who is wanted in this county for stealing corn from Mrs. Catharine Kornegay near Dudley. The Helen May Butler Ladies' Band, which had a date in the Messenger Opera House tonight, arrived in the city today, but when they got here they found that through the bad manage ment of their advance agent the en gagement had not been advertised and they boarded the Atlantic Coast Line train for the north. Col. Joseph E. Robinson left today for Elizabeth city to assist the district deputy in the organization of a lodge of Elks in that city tonight. The colored population of the city is again worked up to a frenzy over a series of games of base ball between Goldsboro and New Bern, the first of which was played this afternoon. Messrs. C. Dewey, W. A. J. Peacock, June Slocumb, Geo. C. Kornegay, and Mr. Brunson, the superintendent of the Odd Fellows' Orphan Home, will go to Wilmington tomorrow to attend the meeting of the State Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows.

Richmond. Va., May 11. Final action In the case of Judge Clarence J. Campbell, of Amherst county, who horse-whipped the Rev.

The vote was 56 to 12. One of the amendments agreed to requires that the causes of removal be spread on the journal of the house.

Another fight is reported to have oc curred at the village of Gorestrovo, near Demir-Hissar. The village was burned. The panic in the Monistar district has not abated. Paris, May 11. There was a simul taneous publication this morning in Paris, Vienna and St. Petersburg of the official view of the Bulgarian sit uation. It carries out the idea, previ ous cabled to the Associated Press that the powers are satisfied wtith the cor rectness of Bulgaria's course and would not tolerate the adoption by the sultan of Turkey of stern measures against Bulgaria on acccount of the Salonica outrages. The official communication sums up as follows: "Two important points marked the present status of the imbroglio. First, the- Bulgarian government is not re sponsible for the Macedonian violence: second, neither St. Petersburg, Vienna nor Paris have the intention to permit Bulgaria to be held responsible." The communication closes with the statement that the porte's first duty is to carry out the general plan for he Balkan reforms, repress the Albanian agitators and punish the murderer of the Russian consul, adding: "If Turkey persists in diverting at tention by menacing Bulgaria the am bassadors of the powers may shortly remind the porte of what the powers expect." -ZSl. s O X.

The monthly crop bulletin issued by the agricultual department today says: Returns to the statistician of the de partment of agriculture made up to May 1 shows the area under winter wheat in cultivation on that date to have been about 33,107,000 acres. This is 64,000 acres, or 2.8 per cent., less than the area sown last fall, and 4,525,- 000 acres, or 15.8 per cent., in excess of the area of winter wheat harvested last year. For the area remaining under cul tivation the average condition on May 1, was 92.6, against a condition of 97.3 for the total area sown reported on April 1, 1903, and 76.4 on May 1, 1902, 94.1 at the correspond ing date in 1901, and S2.5 the mean of the averages of the last ten years for the areas remaining under cultivation or May 1. While there has manifestly been some deterioration of condition during the month, special field agents, dispatched to the principal winter wheat states on the occurrence of the frost of April 30 and May 1, report the wheat crop as practically uninjured by the cold snap.
