100000 FOR PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

Carly and Children.
The educational question. however,
is the question of the hour. The Gov
ernor has paved the way lit ought not
to be hard for the Legislature to follow.
The clamor is deafening, the demands
are absurdly large, the appeals are
hert- rendering, but the Legislature is
master of the situation and ought not
to be swept off it's feet The public
schools tower above all the other ques-
tons like the Washington Monument
towers above the surrounding city. The
children must be given a chance or we
are undone.
We hope the Legislature will be true
as steel to its duty in this crisis. Not
a dollar less than 100000 ought to be
appropriated to the common schools.

testified that stock in his bank was as
sessed at fifty two and half dollars per
share. there having been paid for it
seventy dollars a share. Rev. y. NJ. Jur-
ney of Wayne county. testified that his
farm in WAYNE county was assessed for
taxation at fourteen hundred dollars and
was worth six thousand dollars Now
this differentiation of Rev Mr.. Jurney's
property is either a gross wrong upon
other tax payers, or tax assessors in Mr.
Jurneys part of Wayne county have noto-
riously failed to do their duty. The rem
edy is plain. new assessment is need
ed The Rev. Mr. Jurney ought 10 be
allowed 10 pay tax on his property at the
sum he swore It was worth last fall.
There are other gentlemen who also swore
that their property was assessed at less
than it's value. These gentlemen ought
not to be compelled to wait longer than
next June TO have their property assess
ed at its true value. They evidently are
embarrassed and annoyed because they
ray the State too little, and this legisla-
ture ought to give them an opportunity to
pay tax on their property at their own
valuation.

The best way to secure enough money TO
give the proper support TO the institutions
of the State, to care for the insane, and
give comforts to the old veterans, and
provide better educational facilities, in
addition to the revenues provided by the
Finance Committee, is TO order complete
re-assessment of ;,il property in North
Carolina, personal real estate and corpor
ate, and to pass the Willard Assessment
Bill, which makes the Corporation Com
mission a Board of Assessors with pow
err to see that the undervaluations and ir-
regularities, that heretofore have married
the fair and equal assessment of prop
erty in North Carolina are ended In his
testimony before the Master in the rail-
road invested. In his testimony before the
Master in the railroad assess
ment taxation case, Mr.. Ashley Horne,
of Clayton, one of the wisest and wealth
lest business men in the State, gave out
as his opinion that State Tax Commits
sion ought to be created and salaried
tax officer ought to be employed in each
county He thought this would result
in getting on the books much property now
escaping taxation altogether and equal
ize the valuation OF property that is tax
ed Mr. Horne's suggestion is eminently
wise, and it ought to be put in operation
in June, 1901. There is no good reason
for postponing it, when everybody admits
that there is now much property that
pays no tax at all, particularly solvent
credits and much other property that here
and there is undervalued. All talk OF
bond issues or niggardly support of pub
lie institutions by small appropriations
which institutions make for the States
progress and glory. are. out of place
Much Of the property of the State that
can be hid in vaults and safes escapes
taxation. 1t ought not TO continue so
another year.
