WANT TO SEE BRODIE HUNG.
4 Petition from One Hundred Citizens
of Vance County.

The Governor is in receipt of a peti-
tion signed by about 100 citizens of
Vance county asking that George Bro
de the rapist be publicly executed.
A letter from the sheriff's brother ac-
companies the petition. He states that
fully nine-tenths of the people in the
county desire that the hanging next
Wednesday lie public, and that it is
generally believed that it will have a
good effect in preventing a recurrence
of such crimes as that for which Brodie
is to die.
No notice will be taken of the petition
by the Governor other than to forward
lit to the County Commissioners, as they
have the matter in charge and they are
the proper persons to say whether tha
.execution shall be public or private.
All executions in this State must be
had privately unless otherwise ordered
by the county commissioners. In sending
his petition Mr.. Smith stated that the
chairman of the county omm'ssioneres
had resigned and that there was no way
to convene special meeting of the board
by which action could be taken. But
unless it is done the execution must be
private.

NO INCREASE OF TAXES.
Farmers of Johnston Fortunate in Hav-
ing Democratic Officers.


The people of Johnston County will not
have to pay the tax puS upon them by
the increase in valuation of property
made by the State Bo&rd of Equaliza-
ton. Johnston, however, is the only
county so favored.
And this is the way t happened: The
Board increased the value of only three
species of property-cattle Is per cent,
hogs 20 per cent ands sheep 80 per cent.
in Johnston county. altogether this in
crease means only S5J.15 more to the
fcneral State fund. :
But as the tax lists have all been made
out and returns made to the Auditor, it
will cost over 800 60 make these changes
in valuation. SO Register of Deeds
Smith came to Raleigh to see the Au-
ditor and asked if the county might be
allowed to go ahead and collect taxes on
the present valuation just so the State
got its tax in accordance with the in
creased valuation. He was told that it
might be done; that all the State wanted
was the money. So this course will be
pursued and the farmers will be relieved
from paying ON the increased valuation
of their stock,s and all the taxpayers of
the county VIII help-bear- the burden.
1t will be cheaper for the county and
just as well Cor the State.
