MORE LIKE A CURSE.

President Harper, of the Chicago Uni
but he has stated a truth, heretofore
expressed in these columns, regarding
Cecil Rhodes scholarships at Oxford for
young Americans. Though late it is good.
He says:
''If the Rhodes scholarships are to be
employed to detach from the American
environment 100 or more young men of
special ability each and transport them
to foreign soil in order to Undue them
with foreign ideas at an age when they
are peculiarly impressi enable; if the
purpose of this foundation is to draw all
men to a recognition of the doctrine Of
imperialism as it is embodied in the
British empire, the execution of this
trust may prove a curse instead of a
blessing to those who avail themselves
of it's privileges"
Unfortunately too many American col
leges are aping Oxford in preaching an
Imperialism more indefensible than that
embodied in the British empire. How
about the Chicago University? Has it
rung out clear against the un-American
Imperialism that the administration is
foistirg upon us? If go, good for Presi
dent Harper And his criticism of the
Rhodes scholarships is to be widely COM
mended and hailed as true American
note. At his college, is there apology
for the imperialism OF Roosevelt and his
Philippine policy? II so, he has no bust
ness protesting against American boys
imbibing ''the doctrine of Imperialism
as il is embodied in the British empie."
If the American boys are to imbibe this
un-American doctrine anywhere, it is far
better that they should imbibe it in
England than in American institutions.

a NOTABLE CONTEST.

The assessment of the value OF the rail-
roads in Montana for taxation has been
increased from $15,OOO,OOO to $4,000, 900.
This was done after a thorough investi-
CATION of the true cash value OF the rail-
roads by the State Board. There was
determined opposition, specially from
representatives of the Burlington, North
ern Pacific and Great Northern" But
none OF them said the property was worth
less than the amount at which it was
valued for taxation.
The reason for the large increase is
chiefly that the assessments heretofore
have been ridiculously low and the asses
sors have let the railroads pay about
what they wished to pay.
In Ohio the Republican courts have re-
fused to increase the assessments, though
it has been established that railroad and
street car companies are assessed at less
than one-third of their true cash value.
Montana has faithful officials. Ohio
has officials who prefer big campaign
contributions than fair assessments.
That's why the great contrast!

Mr.. Philip Williams Avirett, whose
death has already been noted. He was
brilliant and accomplished gentleman
who had rare personal charms. Wher-
ever he went he made strong and in
fuential friends. During the residence
in Raleigh, as attorney in the celebrated
anti-lease suits, he showed ability of
high order. The Times closes loving
tribute to his memory with these words:
Possessed of a great intellect, too
great, in fact, for the commonplace
affairs of life, and with untiring energy,
he has burned out the candle at both
ends and that his life has ceased before
the meridian of it's usefulness had been
reached"

world. Your motherg and grandmothers
never thought of using anything else for
Indigestion or Biliousness. Doctors were

ton of the liver, stimulate the nervous
and organic action of the system, and
that is all they took when feeling dull

FOR A UNION DEPOT.
Action Of the Durham Chamber Of Commerce.
Effort to Secure Manufactures
fspecial to News and Observer)

(Special to News and Observer
Durham. N. c., Aug. 6.-At meeting
of the Chamber of Commerce last night a
renort was submitted in regard to the
,,attor of a union depot for Durham.
In mart the report says; 1T seems That
the roads do not intend to give US any
relief. The present depots of all the
roads are a shame and disgrace.
We recommend that the Chamber OF
Commerce take the matter up with the
Railroad Commission and ask them 10
compel the roads to give us a union
depot that will accommodate our uaFel-
ing public.
A resolution was offered as an amend
ment and accepted This resolution goes
on to speak of the unsightliness OF the
depots here. and recommends that i'm
mediate steps be taken to secure from
the Southern Railway Company a suita-
BILE depot for the city. The said COM
mittee is also to confer with the Sea-
hoard Air Line and come to an under =
standing that if it shall finally establish
its right to use the present track from
the old electric light house westward to
their present terminus, 1T VIII pay It's
nroner part for the use of the new
depot to be constructed by the Southern.
The Norfolk and Western road is asked
TO cooperate in the enterprise. The
resolution goes on to say that commit
tee after committee have heretofore
waited upon these respective railroads in
the above interest and have always been
nut off with the stale cry that right of
way matters stood in the way of a
union depot" Further that 1.-The timo
has come for a union depot and a union
depot Durham must have"

In solemn conclaye after much wise

street cars are Il nuisance and an

speed to the swiftness OF a common
billy goat, and forsooth Lakewood park
