STATE PRESS.

The supreme court has held in the
case of George vs.. Guilford that taxa
ton is a debt and something.more than
a debt" and therefore that opinion
can't be quoted as an authority upon
the question of section 50 and 80 Of the
revenue act. etc. as discussed by the
attorney general. BY the way, speak
ing of this little business of putting
people in Jail for not paying taxes. it
was remarked that the sheriff who
would enforce such a law would most
assuredly be a One-term man. and that
none of them would take the step
Raleigh Press.
If this law is inforced then Cleveland
county had as well build a stockade
around No. 6 township for it will take
the entire space to contain standing
room for the delinquent tax payers.
Why a set of men who had any pro-
tentions to right and justice for the
people should enact such a law, and
make it irOnclad, is more thar we can
understand. 1t is simply a law that the
people cannot obey and we are of the
opinion that it will result in evil instead
of good to the entire state. If the law
is enforced the cost to the various coun-
ties, in the way of officers, court and
Jail fees, will amount to fully as much
or more than the remainder of the taxes
collected. Consequently our counties
will be left without funds to paw the
other general eXpenses.-Shelby Au-

such an organization should have been
