DISCRIMINATION AGAINST THE
MASSES.

1t is n step secured that the Rail.
road Commission in this State have re
duced the rate for kilograms between
any two points in this State to Is cents
for 10 words, exclusive of address and
signature. We should have preferred
10 cents. The Western Union mono
poly declares annually six per cent
dividends on a six fold watered stock
which amounts to Sc per cent on the
real value Of their property. We are
longing for the day when this govern
ment like others will Iun the telegraph
and telephones as part Of the Postfice-
as the electric mail. We shall then
have telephones at every country post
Office and q uniform rate Of 5 { cents for
kilograms throughout the Ua.on.
That time ia surely coming, and not
long first, but till then q reduction of
telegraph and telephone rates by each
State for itself is our only relief.
1t is to be regretted that the Com
mission would not reduce Railroad
charges also. The Railroad property
Is assessed for taxation by them at
about one half what it is in Virginia.
Upon what the Commission SAYS is the
true, actual value" of the property,
the Railroads by their " showing
are earning Is p8r cent net profits out
of the public. This certainly admits
of large reduction of rates.
Fqualled only by the free pass evil is
the selling with the Commissioners ap-
prevail, Of 1000 mile tickets at 2 cents
per mile while people Of less means are
required to pay 81 cents per mile. As
R iIroad rates are in the nature of tax
alton, this is exactly as if a man
having 81, 900 was taxed only 2 per cent
while one having 500 was taxed 81 per
cent hereon. There is no justice in
ais.

ANOTHER ~PosTP0NBMaNT.

You can't lose the goldbugs. They
are up to date in every thing. Up to
this time they have given six one
reasons why good times don'G come,
and now the sixty-second reason bots
up as fresh as the first rose of summer.
We have been waiting patiently for the
tariff bill to pass, and, not having any
thing better to believe, for it had been
promised go many times, we thought
prosperity would then appear in all his
or her glory. But the s~ixty-second
excuse knocks that all out and we be.
gin another season of waiting. Dun
and Bradstreets say that nothing now
remains in the way of prosperity ex,
cept the coal miners strike. If they
would get the old excuses out of the
way bsfore they formulate new ones, it
would not be 30 razzle dazzling to the
average citizen, but they go right on
finding new causes for delay and never
give any cause for abandoning old
theories.

SOME FACTS ABOUT THESCHOOl
LAW. "

Those who oppose the school tax
need not vote against it. If one is
qualified to vote, his absence will be as
effective as the hostile ballot.
There are possibly in some instances
good reasons why the school tax should
not be voted. Aman who votes against
it merely because it would benefit the
children of another race, is anything
but a patriot.
A man who will vote against it be-
cause it was passed by the unaided
efforts of men not of his political faith, is
too narrow minded to deserve the name
of Tar Heel. The best comparison we
can make is that he is deliberately rob
bing the d~efenceless children of his ma
tive State because that which he steals
was not given by members of his own
party. AS well steal bread from a
starving child because it was not given
by near relatives.
Another molehill of which the Demo
Gratis are trying to make a mountain is
the appointment-in some c~ounties-of
one negro school committeeman in
each township. Some of the papers
even intimated that this was a step to.
ward mixed schools. OF all the silly,
unwarranted and disgusting rot which
ever emanated from the morbid mind
of any crazy quill driver this takes the
cake.
If three or four white school commit
teemen can't out vote one colored man,
then for goodness sake, let Governor
Russell call an extra session of the legis-
lature and have Drs. K!ngsbury and
Caldwell to write a new arithmetic. If
any race has any grounds for complaint
in this matter, it seems to US it is the
j negro.

SENATORS GIT wRATHY.

Senator Tillman's resolution to lnves
tigate the charges against several
Senators who have, it is said, been en-
gagged in sugar and other stock specu-
lations, has been rejected. The report
of the committee was rather acid The
members of the committee say that
newspaper correspondents pick up all
sorts of rumors and base their charges
on them without making any effort to
find whether or not there is any truth
behind it all. They characterize it as
indefinite illusions, inslnuatlons,
guesses and inferences."
The brave, noble "dignided" Sena'
tors may be correct. 1t would be
pretty hard to imagine anything that
the average Washington newspaper
correspondent can't imagine. But there
are some cold, clammy facts that con-
stantly stare US in the face. Smart
men can cover up their tracks pretty
we'll, but still we go right along watch,
ing the Sugar and other trusts get all
they want at the hands Of Congress.
If the mobile dignifed" senators who
help these combinations to fleece the
public don't get a divide, they are not
up to snuff. They are adding the vice
or crime of folly to their other infrma
mites. We do not mean to intimate
that all the noble Senators are going
hand in hand with the trusts and the
Wall Street contingency, but it is plain
to all that many of them-a maj 1rity
in fact-are going that way. No won
der they are goaded to desperation by
the newspapers. Let them remove the
evidence by representing the people
awhile. Then all honest papers will
defend them should they be attacked
by sensational and untruthful writers,
The charges will fall fat, anyhow, for
the people will not believe their state
ments. At present we are disposed tc
believe them guilty, for appearances
are very much against them.
