ITALY's CRUSHING TAXES.

F. Marion Crawford, the novelist
who has lived much in Italy and owns
property there, points to the crushing
weight of taxes as one Of the causes of
existing discomfort among the Italian
people. Taking national, provincial and
commercial taxation together, he him
self pays upon the assessed income upon
a few acres of land AZ per cent, upon
the assessed rent of his house % per
cent, and if he paid income tax in Italy
the government would exact 1917 per
cent more. AS there is no limit of es-
tate, real or personal, below which tax
alton is not applied, he finds it easy to
understand the enormous emigration
which of late years has crippled Italian
agriculture by sensibly diminishing the
farming population, while leaving upon
the hands of the government an i'm
mense area of farm land confscated for
overdue taxes, which no one could be
induced to take under the present con-
ditions even as a gift. Such condition
of things he regards as simply an in
cipient form of national bankruptcy.

JUDGE GOBER'S SUGGESTION.
Points Out Where Reform Could Be Made
in Decisions of Higher Courts.

Points Out Where Reform Could Be Made
in Decisions of Higher Courts.
There was suggestion in the report
which. Judge Gober, chairman of the
committee on judicial administration.
made to the bar association of this
state at its recent meeting in Atlanta.
to which the lawyers of the state
should give their attention at once.
The suggestion was that the supreme
courts system of deciding cases should
be reformed. He said that under the
present system the court instead of
deciding principles decides Individual
cases, SO that every important case has
to go to the supreme court.
We are not prepared to say whether
or not this suggestion is justified bv
the facts. If it is, it would seem as if
there Ought not to be any delay in
bringing about change in the pres
ent system. If principles were decid-
ed lIugants would be saved the trouble
ana expense, IN many cases, of carry
ing their cases to the supreme court,
and the court itself would be relieved
of much Of the work it now does. The
court has been complaining for long
time that 1t is over burdened with
work. If what Judge Gober says is cor.
rect the court could easily get rid of a
very large per centage of the work
which is now thrust upon it,
Judge Gober was recently defeated
for place upon the supreme bench
1t doesn't follow, however, that the
people will not take notice of reforms
he may suggest for the Improvement
of the court and the lessening of the
cost of litigation. If his suggestions
are good ones they will command at
tentiOn, and the people Will give HIM
| credit for them.-Savannah News.

THE DIRECTORS ALBRIGHT.
There Has Been no Reflection Upon the
Directors of the Caraleigh Phosphate
Company.

In several articles which have appear
ed in the papers concerning Mr.. j. r.
Chamberlain, we are informed that
some Of the stockholders and directors
of the Caraleigh Phosphate and Fertili-
ger works, think those who read the
articles hastily may have thought we re-
fiected upon them. Many of the stock
holders and directors are among our
best and most honorable citizens, and it
was never the intention to in any way
reflect on such men as Ashley Horne,

and others who deservedly stand so high
among all classes Of our people The
Caraleigh Phosphate Company is one of
our most progressive business enter
prises, and, if upon the trials of the
penalty eases, which have been referred
to, it shall be found that any fertilizer
was untagged, all can safely say it was
not with the consent or approval of it's
directors. Our criticisms, which were di-
rected at Mr.. Chamberlain, could not by
any fair construction be said to reflect
upon anybody but him. He cannot hide
behind the honorable and upright gentle
men who compose the directorate of the
Phosphate company. 1t is Chamberlain,
Radical politician and Chamberlain the
pursuer of good men, and Chamberlain
only that we crticise.

ITO the United Confederate Veterans
the Commanding General with a sorrow
which no words can express, announces
the death of Miss Winnie Davis, the
idolized daughter of the Confederacy.
THE houndless enthusiasm which was
evoked by her every appearance at our
reunions indicated the depth of affection
and the unfeigned admiration which all
Confederates felt for her. 1t is not too
much to say that the ovations with
which she has everywhere been greeted
by the eX-soldiers of the Southern
armies were such as have rarely been ac-
corded any woman. Their grief at her
untimely death will be as profound and
poignant as their love for her while liv-
ing was universal and sincere and their
most affectionate sympathies are with
the grief-stricken mother. The Com
General directs that the depart
ment and division commander select dele
cations and escorts of honor as they may
deem proper to represent the United Con
federate Veterans and to accompany the
remains to their final resting place.
