THR NEXT SESSION.

The morning session of the COnven-
tion opened Saturday at 10 O'Clock,
President Marsh presiding. The ques-
ton as to the time of the next Con-
ventiOn was called up and discussed.
The present time of meeting is in No

changed it back to the old time. being

STATE REFORMATORY FOR YOUNG GRIM
INALs.
DIR. Hufham offered the following
resolution:
"WHEREAs, The prison system of
the State classes all cOnvicts together,
making no discrimination between
young and old criminals; hardened
offenders and such as have just enter
ed on a career of crime, therefore,
"Resolred, That patriotism, humanity
and justice require that there should
be discrimination and classification
in all these things.
"Resolved, That in the judgment of
this body reformatory for youthful
criminals should be established at an
early day." The resolution was adopt
ed.
OPPOSED TO STATE AID.
Rev. L. johnson, of Greensboro, read
the following resolution:
"WHEREAs, The State aid to higher
education by taxation is wrong against
the whole people, who cannot receive
the benefit of such opportunities; un-
| just to the private and the corporate
and UNCONVENTIONAL institutions vol.
unfairly supported; unwise because
the people of North Carolina are now
inadequately provided with public
schools for their children and need
every cent of their taxes that can be
spared for that purpose;
"Resolred, therefore. That the Bap-
tist State Convention of North Caro-
lima re-affirm its opposition to State
aid by taxation to higher educatiOn.'
After this had been read Prof. j. w
Gore, of Chapel Hill, arose and signi
fed his opposition to the resolution.
This is the thing the people have
been looking for, as it is understood, il
view of the fact that there are To-
Baptists in the next legislature, tina
what is done here by the Convention
will doubtless be carried out by tn
General Assembly. Prof. Gore sail
that the Convention assembled to d.
the Masters work should not take VI
, this State aid question unless ther
was moral question concerned. II
said: "Yon ought to adjourn as

The Railway Commission, through
it's chairman, Maj. J. w. Wilson, has
forwarded the sixth annual report OF
the commission to Governor Carr.
The report shows that the mileage in
crease on Mort h Carolina railways is
as follows: Caldwell and Northern,
1916; Henderson and Oxford, 1926;
Aberdeen and West End, 1926. This
includes the increase up to June 3Oth;
since then the Aberdeen and west
End has completed its line to Troy.
The increase in mileage is something
over 81 miles. The total mileage of
railways in the State, as shown by the
report, is 4,3S. The valuation of this
property is 26,576,Os6. This is an in
crease in the tax valuation since the
establishment of the commission OF
sl4,254, 1892. One-tenth of the entire
States taxes is paid by the railways.

REPUBLICAN CANDOR ABOUT TRUSTS.
Defense of Them VIII Simplify Issues In
tho Next Campaign.

Defense of Them VIII Simplify Issues In
tho Next Campaign.
From the New York Journal
One good result of the election of
Mai. Mckinley is anincrease in candOr
in some directions. A number of Re-
publican contemporaries, following
pulpit example, frankly defend the
trusts, holding that they are the inev-
liable product of our civilization; that
by concentrating capital they save
waste and regulate production. There
is nothing SO beneficial as frankness.
Buncombe is immeasurably harder to
meet.
This Republican view of trusts
should meet with the concurrence Of
every Socialist. The trust is the most
efficient foe of competition that has
vet been evolved. We have no more
devoted believers in individualism
than the trusts. The keen gentlemen
who compose them place no limit upon
their right as individuals to crush
everybody who presumes to compete
with them regardless of what rain
bow chasers and other crack-brained
persons may say about the interests OF
the public. 1t IS the necessary law of
concentration that as the trusts grow
richer they must become fewer and
stronger. These cooperative societies
of capital, if left unrestrained, will be
the industrial units, and competition
among themselves will replace COM
petition among individuals. Ulti-
mately progress of this kind will Gull
inmate in the monopoly of the couD-
try's productive activities by = few
gigantic trusts. Nothing need be told
the American people about what the
political power of such combinations
would be.
The question would arise: "Sha!l
these half dozen trusts own the gov
eminent, or shall the government own
the trusts?" 1t has already been
demonstrated in practice that now,
while we have trusts by the hundred,
they are potent enough to defy regula-
ton by law. Should the people as an
alternative to living as slaves of the
trusts determine to become their mas
tiers by substituting government for
private ownership, the determination
would mean Socialism.
Extremes meet. The natural frul,
OF the unrestricted individualisn
which has bred the trusts is collectiv-
ism. 1t is a cheerful prospect, surely

Gen. MaSon'S address was brief, but
strikingly eloquent. In glowing lang
uage he eulogized the stars and stripes,
the emblem of liberty that waved over
George Washington and his intrepid
followers that night they crossed the
|1ce-blocked Delaware 1t was the same
Ma g under which our half-naked soldiers
suffered the bitter cold at Valley Forge
Ii was the same flag that fluttered in
the crisp October air at Yorktown, when
Lord CORVALLIS surrendered 1t was
the same flag that inspired the Ameri-
tcan soldiers in Mexico.
And coming down to the civil war;
continued Gen. Mason, "how powerful
its influence there? 1t was greater than
the most earnest appeals. When the
flag went forward, retreating men
would turn and follow it to victory or
death. Once when 100 Union men were
liberated from Libby prison to be taken
North In exchange for Southern priS-
oners, as they left the prison and reach
ed an eminence, they saw a steamboat
moored at the shore, at the end of which
f1uttered a small American flag. The
instant their eyes beheId the glorious
emblem, the whole 100 of them fell upon
their faces and cried:
thank God! thank Cod!
1T meant much to these men, It
meant liberty. 1t meant a country.
Up then with this banner! Wherever
1t leads, million of free men shall
follow, and a nation of free men shall
perish from the earth when that flag
shall be trailed in the Dust"

BELL Boy at the Metropolitan in Hot
Water.
John Allard, a bell hop at the Metro
pOlitan, left his job and the hotel
Saturday evening. 1t is, perhaps,
fortunate for the proprietor's guests
now at the hotel and those who intend
ed visiting there during the encamp-
ment that Allard quit work. He had
only been employed a few days but
his work was strong and he did not
overlook a bet. Saturday evening Mrs.
Mcclure, of ST. Louis who is stopping
at the hotel, went down to dinner and
left gold watch and chain, ring and
pin on the dresser in her room. Her
maid put the jewelry in the drawer
and strewed few handkerchiefs over
the plant. AS she was doing this Al
lard softly opened the door and seeing
the maid explained that the bell had
been rung and inquired what she want
ed. She told him it must be mistake
and Allard said there must be some
thing wrong with the enunciator and
left. The maid went down to dinner
and when Mrs. Mcclure returned she
missed the jewelry, but was quite re-
1ieved when the maid informed her
that the valuableS had been placed in
the drawer To satisfy herself Mrs.
Mcclure looked for the property, but
1T was gone. She rang the bell and
Allard promptly answered. She in
formed him of the loss and told him to
send Manager Barker to the room. AL
lard did so and before Mr.. Barker re-
turned to the Office he had answered
another bell. This time a guest ordered
sixty cents worth of drinks and gave
Allard SIS bill to settle the bill. Allard
came down stairs took his hat and left
the hotel. The guest waited some time
and then made inquiries about the
change coming to him. The actions of
Allard and his sudden disappearance
settled the matter in the mind of Mr.
Barker, and the police were notified.
The youth was found at the Richelieu
hotel on Seventh street yesterday
morning. The chain and pin belonging
to Mrs. Mcclure were found under the
pillow in the room occupied by Allard,
but the ring and watch are still miss
ing. Allard stood pat when arrested
and said he had bought the pin and
chain in Chicago. He was arraigned in
the police court and his case continued
to Wednesday. Allard is about eighteen
years old and claims to have friends
in Chicago.

CURLIN's MURDERER RoAsrs.
No Arrests Made as Yet In Elmo's
Murder.

Up to late hour last night no arrests had
been made in the Curtin murder case. The
Saltwater authorities are devoting all their
time to the case, but have been unable to
learn anything which would lead to the ap-
prehension of the parties concerned Any
number of clues which promised well on the
start have been run down, but the officers
have only been put to much trouble without
securing any information of value.
Sheriff Smith, of Washington county, visit
ed st. Paul yesterday afternoon and talked
over the case with Chief of Detectives
Schweitzer. Seen last evening Chief Schweit-
ger said there was nothing new in the case.
Sheriff Smith had called on him in relation TO
the case, and he had promised to do all that
he could to assist in the capture of the
gang. The officers, he said, somewhat
at sea owing to the fact that no description
of the murderer or his accomplish could be
secured. Mrs. Curtin, the only witness, SO far
known, only saw one man, and this one
under very trying circumstances. Her de-
scription of the one who did the shooting was
very meager, and gave the officers little, il
anything, to go on. The country he said, was
filled with gangs Of thieves, who were none
too good to commit the crime and the only
thing that surprised him was that there were
not more of the same crimes committed. He
of the opinion that the men concerned in
the murder were not strangers, either to
Curtin that locality, and from what he
had been told about the circumstances, in
clined to the belief that the men had known
that Curtin had considerable money about

BUT HE DIDN'T GET THE GRIP.

Song.

H. w. Watson, or a man giving his name

company's Office yesterday and demanded SIS
for a yalise which he claimed to own, but
which had been handed over to some one
else. About ten days ago three satchels were
received at the office of the express company
from Terre Haute, Ind. The day after the
arrival Of the grips three men called and in
quired about them. The clerk informed the
trio that they had arrived, but as none of
the party had money enough to pay the
charges due, they didn't get them. The ex-
press receipts were taken to an employment
agency and put up as collateral for tickets
and charges for the party to Rich Valley
On Friday three men who were supposed to
be the ones who called for the satchels the
day after they arrived stepped into the ex-
press office and demanded them. The spokes-
man OF the party said they had been given
no receipts at Terre Haute and one Of the
assistant clerks turned over the grips on
payment of the charges. One of the men
signed for his own and Watson's vaIise and
Saturday Watson himself dropped in and
called for his. He was told that the grip
was gone and was taken by his friend, but
this did not satisfy Watson and he demanded
$25 damages for the property. 1t savored so
much OF job that Manager Owens wouldn t
stand for 1t and told Watson so in pretty
strong language.
