TERRIBLE FALL.
Frank III. Mills Falls from the
Third story of the Hotel
81. Hubert

A most unfortunate accident
happened to Frank H Mills, the
station agent, last Saturday night
He rooms in the third story OF
the hotel, and having been work
ing on his books until after mid
night, it was about 9 o'clock when
he was out on the small balcony
to enjoy the cool of the night air,
and sitting on the balustrade or
leaning over lost his balance and
fell to the sidewalk a distance OF
about thirty feet. Landlord
Fairchild and Oscar Lender were
sitting on the platform and i'm.
mediately went to the man S
assistance and secured medical
aid. Drs. Kriesel and Ferguson
were summoned. and on examin-
alton it was found that the man S
lower jaw was broken on both
sides of the face, a number of
teeth knocked out, his cheek bone
crushed, the nose broken and a
cut over the left eye. He was
bleeding at nose, mouth and ear,
indicating that there was pos
sibly fracture at the base of the
skull. The un fortunate man
shortly after his wounds were
dressed came to consciousness,
and his condition so far since the
accident has been all that could
be desired, and unless the extent
of the injury in the head should
be more serious than can at pres
ent be ascertained there are
strongh hopes Of hisrecovery Mr..
Mills mother and a brother G. }
Mills, from 0Ssian, Iowa, arrived
Monday, the passenger train
being held at Minneapolis a half
hour to enable them TO make con-
nections aud arrivehe that day
Notwithstanding the extreme
ly hot weather Mr.. Mills con
tinues to improve and yesterday
was aDle 70 SIT up Tor snort
time, and was also able to give
an account Of himself just before
the accident which somewhat
explains how he happened to
fall. He remembers going up
to his room and lighting the
lamp, and being tired on account
of working late at the depot, laid
down on the bed to rest a
few moments before retiring for
the night. That was the last he
remembered until he regained
consciousness after the accident,
and it is supposed that on ac-
count Of bring addicted to
walking in his sleep he got up
in that condition and went out
on to the balustrade and fell
over the railing.

TEE ERA OF GOOD FEELING.

The presidents of the various rail-
| roads in Virginia were given hearing
before the Constitutional Convention in
opposition to the pending provision for
the taxation of railroads, Mr.. Spencer
president of the Southern Railway. made
the principal speech Concerning Mr..
Spencer's speech, the Richmond News
says:
Mr.. Spencer advocated a retention of
the present method of taxation for the
counties and cities of the State and an
additional franchise tax of not less than
Z of l per cent on the gross earnings
of the roads He believed that this would
increase the revenues of the State from
$25, 600 to s175,00O annually"
The Richmond correspondent of the
Baltimore Sun has this to say about Mr..
Spencer's speech:
''The most significant part of the meet
ing was the statement Of Mr. Spencer
that the railroads of Virginia are will
ing to bear franchise tax-this to be
based upon the gross earnings of each
company in the State. The basis is to be
calculated upon the proportion of such
earnings to the mileage in Virginia.
The Richmond Dispatch in its news col
umns, prefacing an account of the
speeches by the presidents of the Sea-
board, Southern, Atlantic Coast Line and
Chesapeake and Ohio railroads, says:
was the declaration of every one of the
speakers that the roads of the State were
willing to accept franchise tax of seven
mills on the gross receipts, in addition to
the present tax on the visible property of
the roads.
ut is estimated that this will increase
the tax revenue of the State by from
SITS, 900 to 5000, 000-enough, as President
Williams expressed it, to meet the in
creased interest charge on the State debt
the first of the coming year.
"All the speakers emphasized the fact
that they realized that there was bound
to be an increase made in the States
revenues, and that they were willing to
have it made in the way indicated above.
The assent of the companies to fran
chise tax is given with the understanding
that the present tax upon the net receipts,
which yield net revenues Of about $4,000
a year, is to be abandoned.
This paper has for years been advo-
eating tax on the gross earnings of
railroads, but in North Carolina the
railroads have heretofore fought such
tax and declared that the railroads ought
to be taxed only on their property. We
are glad to see that Mr.. Spencer AMI the
other railroad presidents are getting on
the News and Observers platform Of the
gross income franchise tax. When they
advocate a fair tax of this character in
addition to a property tax, the railroads
will get to place where there will be no
friction, and We will have an era of
good feeling.

A MANUFACTURERS VIEW.

The letter of Mr.. VIM. EntwistIe, re-
plying to Senator McLaurin, is being
widely printed and fcvorably commented
on by the leading papers of the coun-
try. The News and Courier of Charles
ton, S. c., quotes most of it and closes
long editorial by saying:
1--WE need not add anything to
them, (Mr Entwistle's arguments) and
remark only that, if they arc con-
coded to be sound-if a cotton mill costs
double in this country what one costs in
England if 100000 capital invested in
mill in this country must pay $4,000. as
against $4,000 for an equal investment IN
England. so that TO offset this difference
the American must depend wholly on SET
ting cheaper cotton than his COMPETE
tort is easy TO understand why he can
not compete with his competitor in the
worlds markets, ana must surrender
them to him. Certainly, he has no ad-
vantage over his competitor. Whether
what he gains by having the cotton at his
doors is swallowed up by the tariff or
largely so, is a question he may we'll
consider.
There are several other points in Mr..
Entwistle's paper, which also arc worth!
of careful attention, but we note only two.
If we are ever to become q truly COM
mercial nation, exporting cotton goods,
among other things, on a large scale, we
must learn to treat others as they treat
u.s. If we insist that they must open
their doors we must open ours We
cannot export unless we import; cannot
sell unless we buy. We cannot trade,
unless we trade True political economy
is to buy in the cheapest market and sell
in the dearest exchange with our neigh
borS the things that each can make
cheapest. This is in accord with natural
lines and the fitness of things" With
these opinions on the main question, j.
was not necessary for Mr.. EntWistIe to
discuss the reciprocity matter He is
decided, however, in his view Of the sub
sidy scheme, which some of his fellow
manufacturers regard with sa much fla
vor. He does not believe il any kind or
government help for special interests,
which must come from the pockets OF the
people And especially is he opposed to
taxing the SO cents per day laborer,
wherever he may be, to pay the shipyard
gang their three or four dollars per day.
1t is robbery and class legislation OF the
worst kind
Mr.. Entwistle is a practical mill man.
who has devoted his life to the business.
His declarations are in striking contrast
with those of a few professional takers
who are trying to heard the mill men into
a political organization to help get offices
for those who are preaching Republican
doctrine-folowing the lead of McLaurin.
The bulk of the mill men who give study
to the situation will agree with Mr.. En-
will do great good

VIOLATING THE AGREEMENT.

The Charlotte News tells of a case in
the Recorders Court, wherein it came
out in the evidence that boy ten years
old was employed in the Victor cotton
mills. Later. Recorder Shannonhouse
said to a reporter Of the News
There have been several cases be-
fore me recently which have developed
the fact that children under twelve
years are working in some of the mills.
The mill men entered into an agreement
not to work children under twelve
years in their mills, and the Legislature
accepted it in good faith, and if the
mill men who entered into this agree
ment are not living up to it l intend to
find out. We want no labor troubles in
the South
The agreement is being kept by most
sioner ought to make an investigation
to see whether any of the mills are evad-
ing it, and if so, the public ought to
know the facts and the name of the
mill that is going back upon voluntary
agreement Child labor in cotton mills
would have been prohibited by law but
for the agreement made by the mills. It
is to the interest of the mills who are
living up to the agreement, as well as
to the State, which must protect young
children, to see that there is no viola.
ton of the public pledge not to employ
children under twelve years of age.

Asked what he thught of buying the

II am opposed to colonies and added
Il am opposed to Imperialism, because
colonies, as the European powers have
found out are a source of expense and

Upon the occasion of his recent visit
to Raleigh, ex-senator Ransom said to
a reporter that he did not approve of
taking the Philippnes-he did not believe
! in any expansion outside of this hemis-
phere. A; to Cuba, he thought it's destiny
linked it with ours, and it should be a
part of the United States.
This country cannot peacefully main
tain the Monroe Doctrine if it goes into
the grab game for colonies in the Pa
cifie Islands or in Asia or Africa. Let us
keep off the Eastern hemisphere and
peacefully preserve our primacy on the
Western hemisphere. That is the policy
that wisdom would dictate.
