ABOUT LISTING TAXES.
PittSbOrO Record.

Pittsboro Record.
The annual taXliSting season be-
gins next week and the value of all
property will suddenly shrink. There
is a wonderful difference in the value
of property when it is listed for tan
alton and when it is offered for sale.
There is an old saying, Thin as
June shad," and other things seem to
depreciate in June besides shad.
That month seems to have a peculiar
effect not only upon the shad that
swim in the waters below but upon
all animals that move upon the earth
above.
1t is sad commentary upon the
frailtv of our weak human nature
that so many men-and many Of
them considered good church mem
bers-resort to all kinds Of tricks to
keep from paying their just taxes.
SO many persons either DO not list all
their taNables or do not list them at
their true value. Honest taxpayers
I are interested in getting all other tax
payers to pay their just share OF
taxes. As certain amount of taxes
must be raised every year, if any per-
sons evade payment of their share,
others must make it up by paying
more than they otherwise would pay.
One great trouble is that the list
takers in many counties do not I'M
| derstand, or at least do not properly
| discharge. their duties. They are
not generally accustomed to their du,
ties and are without experience. In
many counties new or different list
takers are appointed every year, and
of course being without experience in
the business they are not so efficient as
il they had been list-takers before
ANY list-laker could and would dis.
charge his duties better the SECOND
year than the first. and thousands o
dollars more would be paid in take:
every year if experienced list-taker.

LUSCIOUS PUMPKIN PIE
CROWNS THE Dinner

Second only to the time-honored tur-
key, the "peace de resistance" of the
Thanksgiving dinner. Is the lucious
pumpkin pie. Is there anything of
boy-hood's days that the prosperous
and portly middle-aged man remembers
with more keen delight? Feast fit for
monarch or conpueror is the king of
the barnyard, supplemented with tooth
some pumpkin pie. How much of
dignities, wealth and worldly advance
ment would many Of US resign could we
sit down to the feast with the appetite
of Boyhood! Alas! the pies may be
the same, but the years may be the
same, but the years have robbed us of
we attacked the golden brown deli
cacies that mother used to make"
The apple king, of the orchard, has
all seasons for its own: no special
occasion is needed for the serving of
that delicacy, beloved alike by the cpl
cure and the small boy. The mfnce pie
is associated forever with the thoughts
Of Christmas and its joys, with wassail
and with feasting, with holly-decked
halls and the stately Sirloin, but the
pumpkin is the pie par excellence to
grace the Thanksgiving dinner table.
The feast would have an air of incom-
pleteness without that tempting des-
sert.
The unfortunate Of our race whose
lot it must be to spend the season in
some foreign country, where the be-
nighted inhabitants know not the dish,
will suffer keenly. The turkey and
other appropriate delicacies may be
procured, but in vain may the chief
concoct masterpieces of gastronomy,
in vain the vine sparkles In the costly
glasses, the feast is incomplete.

The future Importance Of organized
labor in this country is involved in the
decision of the anthracite coal strike
commission.
Presidents Of the hard coal roads,, In
their determination not to recognize
the miners union, will as final point
Of issue attempt to have the commits
sioners pass upon the contention that
has existed between unionized labor
and it's employers for many years
that organized labor not incorporated
cannot be regarded as a. safe business
institution because it is not liable
legally for it's acts.
The preparations the coal compan-
les have made to combat the claims of
the miners before the commission
show that they expect to gain great
er victory in the decision Of the strike
commission than they would if they
had won the recent coal strike.
Money to Help Them.
In the desire that representative
body like the coal strike commission
shall determine the question whether
organized labor must be incorporated
if it expects to work with incorporated
capital on a business basis, the coal
presidents have secured the assistance
Of some of the largest financial inst1-
tutions in the United States. It is IN
timated also that J. Piermont Morgan
himself was chiefly Instrumental in
suggesting this plan Of action.
The character of the plan of defense
the operators have decided upon is as
follows:
First-TO endeaVor to prove that the
united mine workers, as an organiza-
ton, is incompetent to enter into BUSH
ness agreements; that it's constitution
does not contain any provisions suf-
hc1ently strong enough to make any
agreement it's members might make
binding and permanent.
Secondhand the agreements existing
between mine workers and operators in
the bituminous fields are impractical
documents and not Of sufficient busl-
ness character to induce the antracite
operators to accept them.
Third That organized labor, unless
it is incorporated, cannot hope to meet
on terms Of business equality with
the employers Of labor; that employers
cannot be expected to treat their en-
ployes on the same business terms un-
less these men are bound legally for
their acts.
Fourth-That in their treatment of
non-union miners the miners have
proven themselves to be band of
cut threats and violators of law and
order, and that President Mitchell is
himself unable to control the miners he
leads.

The anthracite coal barons seem to
be utterly devoid OF all sense Of de-
cency. A dispatch from Scranton says
the miners of District No. / are being
driven to desperation by the behavior
Of the underlings of the coal combine
and threaten to strike again. fragrant
discrimination is being exercised against
the active union men by the foremen
and superintendent in employing the
strikers. The latter are asked whether
they will remain in the union If they
are given their old Jobs and many have
been turned away where they have
given an answer in the affirmative,
with the result that others have be-
come demoralized. This is a shameful
condition Of affairs. The coal barons
have long declared with much empha-
sis that they did not make any distinc-
ton between union and non-union men,
but their practices brand them as plain
everyday liars. They clair for them
selves the right to victImize union men
and deny the latter the right to use
honorable means to organize the work.
ers. The mine barons, without the
slightest qualm of conscience, break
their agreements and then whine like
stuck pigs if the workers whom they
make desperate do the same. The
plutes arrogate to themselves more
power and privilege than any slave
driver ever was guilty of. In fact the
plantation owners Of the South in an
te-bellum days were gentlemen COM
pared to the brutal, lying, silk-stock-
inged industrial cannibals who essay
to conduct the anthracite fields and
great part Of the railways. No lam
guage is strong enough to condemn
these heartless exploiters. But their
very oppression is doing good. They
are popularizing the idea Of good gov
eminent ownership Of the trusts.

New ENGLAND CLAIMS
THE DAY AS HER OWN.

The spirit Of Thanksgiving day can
never have the Significance in the child
OF other states that it has for the child
OF New England. What with the mem
Dry OF that first feast Of venison and
turkey and pumpkin; with traditions of
or1ck ovens and steaming buildings and
pies and apples galore; with the
Westinghouse sermon for young and
Old; whit the shedding party and nut
crackings-
when the gray-haired New Highlander
sees round his board
The old broken ties of affections re-
stored
Is it a marvel that THANKSGIVING is
traced nowhere else than to the earlv
Yankee colonies? And, however much
the celebration has spread to other To-
caht1es, especially to the Western Re-
serve, 1t is difficult to interpret It's full
meaning to the initiated. "The proof
OF ohe pudding is the eating" in this
case especially, and good digestion
often must wait on appetite in the
proving.
still in all sections Of the country
the day will be more or less observed
after the fashion Of the Puritan fore
fathers. John will come home from COL
lege, Charles from the office in the city,
and Daniel from the far West, where
he has gained fortune. The old
bachelor uncle. noted attorney, will
be at the homestead. and there will
grace the great white cloth table, all
the children and grandchildren, win
some maidens and hearty youths.
Thus will Thanksgiving day pass in
the country life Of America. It is diff
ficult, indeed, to interpret the meaning
Of 1t to the city-bred man or woman,
girl and boy, unlearned In It's supremest
joys. But withal, instead of the days
observance being confined to New
England, its spirit will spread to all
the corners Of the states, and to the
islands of the far-away seas, where
dear ones look homeward. 1t will be a.
grand day and people will be grateful
for the privilege of living in such
goodly land. The features of the day
itself, the children and the profound
tranquility Of peace will tend tt make
the occasion one of sweetness and en-
joyment for boys and girls Of to-day
and yesterday.
