AFTER HAWAIrs SUGAR LANDS

Washington, D. c., July 9.-The SEN
ate Committee on Foreign Relations
made two efforts to secure full meeting
for the purpose Of taking up and, If pos
lsible, disposing of the Hawaiian annexa-
ton treaty, but failed. No quorum was
secured at the forenoon session and there
was not full attendance at the after
noon meeting. The treaty was discussed
at some length at the latter session and
the more pronounced of its advocates
suggested the ACCESSIBILITY Of early ac-
ton. This suggestion was antagonized,
however, by the opponents Of ratification
and by at least one of the supporters of
annexation on the ground that the mat
ter is too important for immediate action.
The committee adjourned until next
Wednesday.

The Fayetteville Observer opposes the
r,h,ic school tax because in Cumberland
partisan and ignorant men would con-
troll the money collected. The tax is rem
dered unpopular in not few counties
because some men have been put IN
charge Of the public schools in order to
give them job. Wherever bad men are
in control the people ought to vote down
the tax and wait till their money can be
properly handled. Wherever good men
are in control, the tax ought to be voted
so that the schools can be made better,
and that without delay.

COL. CARR'S ASSISTANCE.

We nublish elsewhere letter from
Col. Julian S. Carr, of Durham, advo-
eating an increased tax for improving
the public schools of the rural dlstrlcts'
that has the right ring. There has
never been time when he could
advance the cause of public education
+br,t Col Carr has not lent his lntiu-
ence gladly and freely. In his own city,
before the people had voted a tax for
nublic schools. Col Carr was one OF sew
eral liberal. philosophical citizens VINO
paid the entire expense of carrying on
the excellent public school system of
durham. He is one of the largest tax
payers. and believes that no tax makes
such good return to the taxpayer as
the tax for public schools.
IF # pays Durham to have special
ia x to carry on good public schools, 1t VIII
.,,tc as well pay every township in
North Carolina.
We arc too poor not to educate. Inc
offer of Col. Carr ought to serve as
stimulus to supplement the stimulus Of
fered bv the State to the townships vot-
ing this tax. The news from the west
and Centre is that the interest in the
campaign lis growing and the people be-
coming aroused to the necessity of pro-
yiding better public schools.

THE BLIZZARD.

Everybody and everything is frozen
in this city today, and street traffic was
almost interrupted by the blizzard
which struck the city yesterday after
noon at o'clock. A drop of nearly
Al degrees in the temperature took
place and the mercury ran down to Is
degrees above zero. At about 10
o'clock last night cold rain began
falling which froze into sleet as it fell
and this caused an almost complete
stoppage of traffic as horses could not
draw their loads Of fuel, provisions,
etc. Hacks could do very little in the
way of getting around the city, and
the streets this morning presented
many scenes of horses falling down in
their harness. People who were not
carefur also had falls.
The local weather bureau records
show a minimum temperature of 10
degrees in the past "a hours, a drop of
Just 40 degrees. The severe cold wave
extends over the entire west and the
central and southern states and all the
northern stations report from zero
weather to % degrees below.
At o'clock this morning and alos
at noon today few flakes of snow
fell in this city and snow is the fore
cast for tonight.
The indications for local weather
tonight and tomorrow is for colder
weather with snow or sleet.

A Costly Residence Burned-Santa Ro-
sa Hospital Saved.
AT 1920 o'clock this morning q fire
alarm was sent from box rs. near the
Santa Rosa hospital to which the fire
department promptly responded. Some
one saw some burning oil rags around
the pipe of the tank which supplies
the Santa Rosa hospital with water,
and sent in the alarm. The pipe had
ing to thaw it.
Last night at $3.50 o'clock three
alarms were turned in, from boxes
Nos. 3S, 43 and 1874, for a fire on the
corner of Craig and Belknap streets,
Laurel heights, when the two-story
frame residence of A. c. Smith, the
well known music dealer in the Wright
block was burning. The firemen were
put to loss to know which street to
take to get to the fire, on account of
the different boxes sprung and there
was some delay, and the streets lead
ing to the Heights were so cut up by
the sewer work, that one engine STALL
ed and engine No. 2 had to hook on
contents, was a total loss. 1t was val
ued at $4,000 with $500 insurance. Mr..
Smith and wife were attending church
service and did not know of the fire
until they started home. This absence
on their part gave rise to the fear that
they were burned in the building and
caused great alarm on the part of the
neighbors. The cause of the fire is
not known but it evidently originated
in the bath room or near it up stairs,
and may have caught from electric
wires. Mr.. and Mrs. Smith have ia
ken rooms in a hotel down town.
While the firemen were at work
throwing water on adjoining buildings
at the fire the water froze as it fell
and the men suffered greatly from the
cold.
