Our policemen should be diligent ill arresting careless negro drivers who imperil the lives on the public thor oughfafes of our city of our men, women and children. This morning the wife and child of an estimable citizen had a narrow escape from be- ing run over and killed at the corner of Pine street and Second avenue. This lady and her child were near the sidewalk when a big empty wagon driven by a big burly negro turned the corner. The lady did not see the wagon, nor did the driver make my effort to pull up his lines or stop his mules. The good lady frightened half to death. jumped and caught her child, who in an instant would have been trampled under foot by the mules. The lady then entered Blum s store, where she remained until her fright and excitement had subsided. This kind of careless and reprehen- sible driving should be stopped. Ii an example or two is made of these big burly drivers who imperil the lives of our citizens, this kind of con duet will cease. Let the police be vigllant and arrest these parties and { hus put u stop to careless driving through the main thoronghfares Of Inc city.

Be Cheerful.

Whoever said, " Laugh and the
world laughs with you weep and you
weep alone" was indeed wise, for no
truer sentiment was ever written.
There is nothing SO certain to make
you disliked as to tell your troubles to
friends. Prosperity means friendship.
You are welcome everywhere. The
world laughs at your witty sayings
and makes merry with you. There
comes time when you are dowhhearted
and fortune ceases to smile on you,
and you look for sympathy from the
dear friends who have shared your
prosperity; but alas you look in vain
and there are some who kindly vote
YOU a bore. People prefer amuse-
ment, and the sight OF a torlorn
countenance is not pleasant. The
best thing, when you can force your
self to it, is cheerfulness. 1t IS a great
tonic. 1t is light and air to our
moral nature. To be without it is TO
he without something that answers to
the mind as clothes and shelter TO the
BODY.

SENATOR JARVIS.
Wilmington Messenger. I!

w
The new North Carolina Senator
showed tact and judgment in making
his first speech in the Senate on so just,
SO righteous, SO popular measure as
income tax. We verify believe that
in the South o9-1ooths of the tax pay
ers wish, demand such tax. They
know it is right, and they know it is
needed. The conduct of Hill and the
entire Northern press, with the ex-
cepton of the New York W0yld, SO
far as we know, in bitterly antagoniz-
ing this bill of equity and common
sense, is painful exhibit of money
worship, sycophancy, stupidity and
unfairness. The very people OF all
Others who should bear the tax-should
be taxed according to what they get
are the very people who are not taxed.
The Northern demagogues in the press
and others are ready and anxious to
tax the articles the South most needs
and uses-even its little brown sugar
for cofee-but the Nabobs and Pluto
Gratis must not be taxed. They are
such great forces they must be protected
without taxation. Out upon such
detestable class favoritism and non
sense.
Here in North Carolina the people
are listing their taxes and every dollar
over $1,000 received is given in for
taxation. The bill in Congress p,o-
poses s4,o 900 as the starting point. 1t
will probably be lowered to $1,000 as
it ought to be. In fact $4,000 would
be about the right sum to begin with.
There are many Northern States with
income tax, and Hills own State has
one. But when the Federal Govern
ment is we'll nigh bankrupt and cries
out for funds, it becomes a great,
crying sin to tax the wealthy and make
them contribute to the support OF the
government.
| England has had an income tax for
eighty years. 1t works like charm.
In 1872, there were but 39,765
persons who paid in all Great Britain,
of incomes beyond 81 900. Now the
number is 2Io,4oo. In Germany
$4,000 families pay tax on incomes
from $3.50 to S1,o5o year; S2,4oc
pay on from SI,o5o to $4,000 year
and 26,Soo pay on above $4,000. The
tax is sound, equitable and needed
There is no reason whatever why q
poor North Carolinian should pay an
income tax on s1oo, above $1,000
received, and New York or Chicago
or Boston multi i-millionaire-witt
from s1o,ooo,ooo to S15o,ooo,ooc
should not pay on every dollar above
a moderate living-say $4,000 OF
$1,000 annually.
The Messenger is gratihed but moi
surprised to learn that Senator Jarvi:
made fine impression by his first
speech in the once august and honor
able body. He stated truth tina,
people do not cry to be taxed, ol
words to that effect. They rather cry
because they are taxed-because the
Congress helps oppress them Wy laying
upon them unbearable, unjust, ini-
quitous burdens for the benefit of a
great rich class. Senator Jarvis i:
correct when he told the Senate that
81 if the Democratic party has nc
higher mission than to bow at the
footstool and worship at the shrine O
the accumulated wealth of the country
the sooner it dies, the better.''
