THE FREE NOTICE. NUISANCE.

The North Carolina Press Associa-
ton put and end. the other day, to
the - free notice nuisance, which had
become intolerable to the country ed
tors, who were expected to give up
valuable space IN their papers to the
- cards of thanks, resolutions OF
respect and obituary poetry, etc, to
satisfy the itch of notoriety with which
their subscribers were afflicted. If a
mans chicken-housc caught fire and a
hole was burned in the roof, he rushed
into print to thank the Fire Depart
ment. If somebody's baby died, the
editor WAS overwhelmed with verse,
bad in sentiment and worse in metre.
IT he didn't print the stuff he was
threatened with the loss of 4 subscrip-
ton, or wood, eggs, bacon. or vege-
tables, as the case might be. At
meeting OF the State Press Association
at New Berne, few days ago, the
delegates dared to adopt resolutions
declaring that hereafter all such
notices must be PAID for at tie rate OF
five cents line. If they live up 10
their professions, the local newspapers
will gain an interest and attract sub
scrlbers-and they will be brave men.

She is looking for pleasure,
And laughs at all that she sees;
And Ofttimes in commissions
She falls down on her knees
She has as her motto
Laugh and grow fat"
But this you can never do
On such poor stuff as that.
She is searching for sweetheart,
With prim but positive face;
But the boys will not love her
For she's always Oh the pace.
She is angling for husband
With rare but dainty touch;
But she scares away the fishes
The maiden talks too much.
Dear Maid, this will not do
To make a business matter;
If you try to push yourself
Ou' IL come out sure the latter"
Now you think I'm very fresh
And do not know my place;
But if you knew as much as

The lateness Of the hour at which
the train arrived in Raleigh made it
necessary to make the stop here shorter
than at first intended, SO, at 3 o'clock
preparations were begun to take up
the line of march back to the station.
The casket was again placed in the
funeral car, the procession was re-
formed in the same order as before,
and the march was taken, this time
out Hillsboro street and down Daw
son street to the station. Here again
an immense throng formed to take
farewell view of the funeral train,
around which such tender interest
seemed to hover. Many crowded
around the car in which the casket
rested, and where myriads of clusters
Of flowers were heaped, and begged
the guards for bud or leaf. A few
of these were handed out, aud were
eagerly seized by outstretched hands.

FATORS ANINCOME TAX.

The Wilmington, N. c., Messenger
believes in an income tax, but it
rightly says that it would not be good
policy to levy it on the small earnings
that are needed to support a family.
That would be an evil all the year
round, whereas, it is perfectly just to
compel all men to pay tax upon that
part of large income which is not
required for their comfortable support.
Our contemporary says:
Think OF the late William H. Wander
bilt owing $53, 100000 of United States
bonds upon which he did not pay one
cent Of taxes, while the poor fellow slav-
ing daily for a little two-room house Or
his little fve-acre farm, and call our
government fair and eqnal and just.
THERE'S a pooryOung Gould with $780,
600, 900. Then there is another very
rich man, one Mr.. AspinwalI, who swears
on the Holy Bible he is worth but Is
cents. The congress ought to pass a
graduated income tax and with penalties
of a very severe kind for all liars, false
swearers and swindIers.
The Messenger concludes its sensi-
bic talk by saying that while it does
not much admire the British house of
lords, it must be said that they are
willing to bear their share of the taxes.
They levy big round tax on their
real estate and also on their incomes.
But the Northern capitalists-some of
them Democrats-raise howl about
persecution when an income tax is
proposed. These fellows have grown
rich under, the favoritism of the govern
ment, and now they are moving heaven
and earth to escape paying just tax,
although they know that the poor
men who own little homes are being
taxed into hopeless poverty. The
only way to make these selfish tax
shirkers useful citizens before they are
dead is to impose a graded tax on
their incomes and collect it. A graded
tax, beginning with the $4,000 in
comes would more than make up the
deficit in our revenue that will result
from cutting down the tariff to a free
trade basis.-Atlanta Constitution.

Mr.. A. HATCHETT, who is the Hen
derson correspondent Of the Raleigh
NezOs and Observer, sent to that paper
an account of the Boyd Hart shooting
ARRAY which occurred here on the 10th
inst. By the nature of the correspon-
dence Mr.. Hart, having seen the pub
lished article, considered he had been
done an injustice and wrote card to
the Meas and Observer charging Mr..
Hatchett with being an unfair and
biased reporter and furnishing preju-
diced statement of the affair. Mr..
Hatchett wrote a reply to this
card but the Nezvs and Observer
failed to give it publication. The
friends of Mr.. Hatchett, seeing the
wrong done him, circulated a paper
to which were attached the names of
the most influential citizens of the
town, which was sent to the .Nezvs and
Observer for publication. 1t was ais O
withheld for some reason, but the fol-
lowing, which fully vindicates Mr..
Hatchett, appeared in the editor ial
columns Of that paper:
We have received for publication
from Mr.. A. Hatchett, our reporter at
Henderson, a card in which he adverts
to card published by Geo. P. Hart !;
and we have also received a statement
made by many of the business men of
Henderson to the effect that they are
familiar with the facts and that Mr..
Hatchett's report in our issue of May
10th, was in exact accord with the
facts, and sustaining the reputation Of
Mr.. Hatchett as fearless, correct and
impartial reporter of news. Mr..
Hatchett's reputation and his long
experience as reporter for some of
the best papers make it unnecessary to
say more than that it gives US pleasure
to thus refer to testimonials so honor
able to him, and showing the estima-
ton IN which he is held at his home.

HOW SOME WHISKY rs MADE.

Mondays session of the sub-com
mlttee of the House judiciary com
mittee of Congress investigating the
Whisky Trust, was devoted to watch
ing experiments by Mr. Veazey in pro
ducing liquors by adultcration. BY
the use OF essential oil, essences and
coloring matter he produced in few
minutes whiskies, runs and gins SINH
lar to those that were placed on the
market and sold as pure goods.
The basis Of this product was an
ordorless and colorless liquid known
to the trade as spirits. 1t was worth
about $r.3o per gallon. BY the use
of compounds worth about Il cents
he produced gallon of liquor that
would sell as high as 81. The produc-
ton of adulterated goods represented
one half the liquor business of the
country.
BY misrepresentation these goods
were worked upon the entire trade of
the country MIR. Veazey urged that
certain witnesses mo names given
be called as soon as possible, as some
of them would find 1t more conven-
lent to be in Europe than before the
committee If they were given time.
