The Death Penalty.

A little thing sometimes results
in death. Thus a mere scratch : in
significant cuts or puny boils have
paid the death penalty. It is wise
to have Bucklen's Arniea Salve
ever handy. It's the best Salve
on earth and will prevent fatality,
when Burns, Sores, Ulcers and
Piles threaten. Only 25c, at Drug
Store.

THE DEMOCRATIC DEMAND FOR
MORE MONEY.

MORE MONEY.
The democratic machine has
brought something upon the people
now that is making even many
of its members "talk right out in
meeting" Heretofore they have
made their "heelers" grin and bear
ii but now their pocket books have
been touched and the old "machine"
can't keep them quiet. In Raleigh
and i'm other towns i'm the State the
property has been assessed for taxa
ton at much higher rate than
ever before and in many cases the
valuation has been more than
doubled. This will squeeze thous-
ands and thousands Of dollars of
extra hard earned money out of
the people only to be squandered
as it were by designing politicians.
The Asheville Gazette of last
Friday contained the following
timely article on the increase in
the valuations of property:
"The arbitrary increase of the
valuations of property for taxation
is accomplishing bv indirectiOn
what the law forbids by direct act.
The rate of taxation being up to
the limit it becomes necessary to
take roundabout course to raise
more revenues, and much property
is assessed this year far in excess of
previous years. In many cases
doubtless injustice is done; any,
way the democratic demand for
more money at Raleigh and the
counties and cities has caused lam
entation from one end of the State
to the other. The delinquent tax
scheme-the going back into the
forgotten and raking up taxables
that were neglected in the harvests
of years ago-may also be necessi-
ty of the increased cost of support
ing the kind of government we
now have in this State, but it isn't
popular with its victims. From
nearly every county comes news
of very large increase in the as
sessments, which however. you
measures it means large increase
in taxation, and taxation does not
mean increase in business pros
perity-in fact 1t is an element in
business life that more often quench-
es and dismisses enterprise than
stimulates and invites it. Good
citizens generally inclined to con-
tribute literally for the public i'm
provments that experience hes
proved to be of public benefit, such
as good roads and good schools, but
the danger in collecting more reven-
ues than are needed for government
wisely and economically administer
ed is that it invites careless and
wasteful expenditure, the multipli-
cation of useless offices, the oppor-
tunity joining hands with the tenn
tatiOn to use the public treasury
to reward partisan political service
regardless of the public i.terest.
The last two legislatures in this
State have greatly increased the ex-
penditures of the government, SO
much so beyond the revenues as to
necessitate the present extraordinary
efforts to increase taxation. The
success Of these efforts, and the fact
that the party now in power con-
siders itself invincibly intrenched
in possession OF the State govern
ment, does not hold out the hope
of a more careful administration of
the finances of the State"

Free Traders and Mr.. German.

The free traders are not elated over the
return of Mr.. German to the leadership of
his party in the Senate. They have not for
gotten. and cannot forgive his share in the
ia riff legislation of 1894. They hold him re-
sponsible for the Reputation of the plat
form of 1892, and for the bitter family row
which resulted from that performance. And
yet the responsibility was far from being
wholly his. There were men who up to
that time had been classed as free traders
who were as little disposed as he was to
write a free trade BILL He had never been
classed otherwise than as a protectionist,
and hence there should have been no sur
prise when he crowded all Of the protection
duties he could force his senatorial party
friends to accept into the tariff bill the
House had passed. He threw or no dis
guise In that act. He violated no promise
that he had ever made.
Nobody Is able to say just what sort Of
tariff bill Mr.. German would have drawn
had the duty been imposed upon him at the
outset. 1t would not have pleased men of
the stamp OF Col. Morrison and Mr.. Waiter
son, of course. It would certainly have car
ried liberal measure of protectien. but
how distributed is mere guessworlk What

Mr. German did was to take a bill which
free traders like w. L. Wilson. C. R. Brock

had prepared. with one eye on the party's
platform and the other on the business IN
terests which crowded the corridors OF the
Capitol. and make it conform as closely as
possible to what he thought should be done
He could at best accomplish only bit OF
patchwork. He could not reject the House
bill wholly, as probably he would have been
glad to do. And so he was greatly embar-
raised by having to build on an unsatisfac-
tory foundation The free traders them
selves had repudiated the party platform to
a certain extent, and he simply carried their
work little further.
The democratic party carried the election
in 1892 on platform which the free traders
accepted as promising free trade legislation,
and which the silver men accepted as prom

German, who was an avowed protectionist,
helped to disappoint the one crowd, and
Mr.. Cleveland, who was an avowed gold
man. not only disappointed but Infatuated
the other crowd. Mr.. Cleveland charged
Mr. German and his friends with perfdy
and dishonor in the one case, and the silver
men brought the same charge against Mr..
Cleveland in the other case. And there
matters stand today. Mr.. German has re-
turned to the Senate. Is Mr.. Cleveland des-
tined to return to the White House?

there by the emperor. 1t consisted OF the
president Of the Potsdam police. four OF
his subordinates and a diplomatic attache.
They were told personally by the kaiser
to come to America and to study conditions
here in the line Of police management.
Thus far only their superficial observations
have been reported. An interesting docu-
ment would be composed Of the formal
statements Of these investigators. thus pre-
senting together all the deductions which
they have made and giving to any reader
a chance to discern ways and means OF
general betterment. Indeed, there is an
urgent need Of an international police con-
gress, not only to afford an exchange OF
ideas and to permit the strengthening Of all
sides in this important feature OF govern
ment but to facilitate the spread of in
formation regarding the criminal classes.
Nowadays the tricksters, swindlers and
even criminals of more serious sort
travel about freely and quickly. and it is
not always easy to detect their movements.
A general scheme of cooperation between
the police of the different countries. such
as now exists in this country between the

The Canal Treaty Ratified.

Henceforth ST. Patrick's day in the even
ing will rank In interest in the United States
with St. Patrick's day in the morning. 1t
will be remembered that 1t was at I pm.
on 18th of March that the Senate ratified
the treaty for building the isthmian canal.
The vote was all but unanimous. as it
should have been. Amendments having
failed. and the question recurring on canal
or no canal at this time, senators on both
sides of the chamber came together in sup
port of a great project which both parties
had Endorsed. The manifestation was an
other evidence of the fact that, in matters
of the largest concern. truly national SEN
timent once created in this country may be
relied upon to produce results.
Colombia now takes the treaty. and pros
poets are good for its ratification by her.
1t goes to her unchanged from the text to
which her special representative in her
name set his hand. We shall not have long
to wait for her reply. In a few weeks her
congress assemblies, and this will be the
most important business submitted to 1t.
Ratification by her will close the chapter,
and then for ditch-digging on a gigantic
scale, and with all the energy and goahead-
itiveness We can command. Some years
will be necessary for the completion of the
WOrh, out let us nope tnat even the most
elderly of our statesmen who have assisted
in bringing the legislative features to a
close may live to see ships passing through
the canal from ocean to ocean.
The enterprise will add materially to our
responsibilities as world power, but there
is not the slightest reason to doubt that we
shall prove equal to them as to all others.
Our object is the promotion of commerce,
and that means the promotion of peace.
Our control of the waterway will be thor
ough. and our ability to maintain 1t ample.
But We seek the injury of no nation. All
alike are to share upon fair terms in the
advantages derivable from using the canal.
We shall use 1t ourselves for all that it
may be worth to us.
We shall be brought into closer touch
with our friends in Central and South
America. but only to their advantage and
our own. We have no designs on their ter
ritory, and we shall have a stronger reason
than ever for championing them as against
European designs. We wish them we'll

The Mississippi Floods.

The flood reports from the Mississippi
valley continue to grow more alarming AS
yet no loss of life has been reported but
1t Is evident that hundreds of persons are
In grave danger and that the property
losses aggregate millions of dollars, in
drowned crops and cattle, destroyed build
lngs and broken leveeS. A serious danger
threatens the city of Memphis and now
only the strength of the levees will deter
mine whether that community and perhaps
others will be flooded to a great depth and
partially destroyed. The flood guages are
all beyond the record. this inundation being
declared to be the worst yet known For
tunately there has been cessation of the
heavy rains which swelled the rivers, and if
the present fair weather conditions continue
for few more days the swollen streams
Will begin to fall. When that time comes
the recession of the waters will undoubted-
ly be rapid. The SHOWS have practically all
melted in the watershed and now the grav-
est peril is from Weakening dykes in the
vicinity of the larger cities of the lower
Mississippi. The reports from the flooded
area during the next few days will be
watched with the keenest interest by the
entire country, the sympathies of which the
Hood sufferers may now rely upon. At
present the means of extending help are
limited, but there can be no question that
when the worst is over if there is need of
funds to prevent a famine among the
stricken residents of this devastated area
whose homes, stock and crops have been
swept away, leaving them stripped of their
means of support. they will be forthcoming
in abundance

International Studies,

When one nation acknowledges that it
can learn something from another then has
the world indeed grown toward the mil
lennium of universal understanding. This
Is the present tendency. Especially during
the past few years have commissions been
sent abroad by this country and that to
study conditions In other lands and to
formulate schemes for the transplan tation
OF the best they find to domestic soil. A
conspicuous instance was the recent visit
of body Of English workingmen under
the leadership and as guests of wealthy
manufacturer, who sought to discover the
secret of American industrial success. But
while this movement has been in steadily
increasing progress in the line of manufac-
turing and business for some time there
has been also growing disposition toward
an International study of political and mu-
nicipal affairs and administrations. Much
benefit would doubtless accrue to both sides
from any hrst-hand investigation of gov
ernmental machinery. Inquiries conducted
by newspapers and magazines have their
value and have done much toward remov-
ing misunderstanding and correcting err
roneous views.
At present there is considera BILE activity
among the police officials of this country
own systems by study of others. Deputy
Commissioner Piper OF New York has Just
returned from trip to London, during
which he looked sharply into the police or
ganization at the British capital He re-
ports informally that there is much to
learn In London, and by coincidence lust
now there appears a magazine article on
the same subject of London's police by
the writer known Josiah Flynt who has
done more perhaps than any other indi-
vidual toward enllghtening the general pub
lie with regard to the ways of thieves
These two statements regarding the way
In which London manages its criminal and
vicious classes and prevents and detects
crime are of exceeding value 1t will be In
order now for London to send officially
over here to learn something from our
systems of police administration, although
II would perhaps he well for the value of
the Impressions received that such COM
mission visit other places in addition to

Farther West Than Buffalo.

The west is playing in great luck. She is
to enjoy the honor of visit this spring
from both President Roosevelt and ex-
President Cleveland. The latter's plans are
not complete, but in all probability he will
follow in some Of the formers footsteps.
1t would be sacrilege to suggest within the
circle of Mr.. Clevelands admirers that he
may have in view among other things test
ing western sentiment toward himself at
this time. But it cannot be doubted that
whatever his purposes may be his trip will
afford such an opportunity. Shall he go as
far as Nebraska? And shall we hear Of
him at Lincoln? Mr.. Bryan on one occa-
sion while visiting the east referred to that
section as 'the enemy's country" VIII Mr..
Cleveland be made to feel while in the west
that he is in 1.-The enemys country" Prob
ably not. For whatever the west may think
of his financial views and record, she will
treat her distinguished guest, we may be
sure, with due courtesy. The presidential
campaign Is on. And why not?
