INCOME TAX.

According to the Norfolk Landmark,
Virginia raised from income tax in 1900
$54 ,564.93 and in 1901 the sum of $685..
G04.14, whereas North Carolina raised
$4,S5O,43 in 1900 and 1S,252.22 in 1901.
In North Carolina the person who gives
in his income for taxation must pay
city, county and special taxes as well as
State taxes. For example, a man who
returns an income of $4,000 for taxation
III Raleigh pays no tax on the first $1,000.
Ir Virginia 5000 is exempt from taxation.
On the second $1,000 he pays at the rate
OF $2.40 on the 800, or $24 tax per year.
This includes all taxes-State, school,
county and special. Does Virginia raise
$4,000 for the State alone? Or is it dis
tributed to city, county and State? In
some States no tax except for State pur-
poses is imposed on the income How is
it in Virginia?

THE SACRED AND INALIENABLE
RIGHT TO BE COURTED.

Kansas was born in revolution and
has periodically been ''revoluting" ever
since. It's latest undertaking is to try to
prevent the unmarried pedagogues re-
ceiving company and being spanked in
the good old fashioned way. Some Of the
school boards believe that school teach
er should be too serious to think of love
and counting, and they have sought to
prevent their receiving company from
young fellows who cannot resist their
charms. The "school marms," some of
them young and pretty and all of them
sters, kicked at the attempt of the board
to regulate their affairs of the heart, held
a meeting and after the usual number of
''whereases" adopted the following:
Resolved, That we view with alarm the
tendency of school boards in certain parts
Of Kansas to adopt harsh and oppressive
measures in restriction of our sacred and
inahenable rights; that to submit to such
tyranny would prove us to be unworthy
children of such noble parentage; that
large per cent of our teachers being mar
rageable, we urge upon all the necessity
of vigorous and unceasing rebellion
against this attempt to deprive us of our
right to court and be courted.
The man who ran up against a buzz
saw was a wise man in comparison to the
Kansas school hoard who tried to deny to
the Kansas school "marms" what they
call their ''sacred and inalienable right" to
be courted. They urge vigorous and I'M
ceasing rebellion against this attempt to
deprive us of our right to court and be
courted provision, you see, for
leap year when women may properly pro-
pose.
Nothing is said about what will be done
with the remains of the Kansas school
boards when the teachers have made an
end of them.

In 1880 the south had 667, 900 spindles,
cut of a total of 10, 76S 900, and its capital
invested in cotton manufacturing was $21,-
900, 000-a fraction over one-tenth of the
cotton mill capital of the country. By
1890, the number of spindIes had increased
to 100000, and the capital to SCI 900 900,
the capital then being over one-sixth of
the total for the country, and the south
had then, for the first time, come to be
seriously regarded as a possible dominant
factor IN certain lines of cotton goods.
The census of 1900 showed that in that
year the south had 100000 active spindles
and $112, 100000 of cotton mill capital. At
the present time the south has, in round
figures, total of about 5000, 900 spindles,

A MORNING TONIC.
(Henry Van Dyke.)

One thing Is certain in regard to fame:
for most of us it will be very brief in
itself; for all of us it will be transient
in our enjoyment of it. When death has
dropped the curtain we shall hear no
more applause. And though We fondly
dream that it will continue after we have
left the stage. we do not realize how
quickly it will die away in silence while
the audience turns to look at the new
actor and the next scene. Our position
in society will be filled as soon as 1t Is
vacated, and our name remembered only
for a moment-except, please God. by a
few who have learned to love us, not
because of fame, but because we have
helped them and done them some good.

CAMPAIGN OPENED VI
BURGCO.
WITH


1.-THE Kentucky campaign was opened
by the Democrats with oratory and bur-
goO.'' So read a telegram from Louis
vile. From the days of Clay and Breck-
inridge we have known what Kentucky
oratory is, but what is burgoo? In the
days of bloody shirt-waving it was Gus
tomary to open campaigns with great
big bug-a-boo, but Governor Beckham has
started something new by opening his cam
paign with "burgoo." 1t is not very
attractive sounding shiboleth, but we are
told that burgoo plus the oratory drew a
large crowd and made the campaign open
auspicOusly.
No hint in the telegram indicated to
the initiated what Burgoo was. but a
Winchester dispatch of Friday telling of
the arrangements for the big political
meeting there next day said that the
"burgoo expert had ready the ingredients
of the stew, consisting of 500 pounds of
beef, five dozen hens, sixty dozen ears of
green corn, fifteen bushels of tomatoes.
ten bushels of potatoes, two bushels of on
ions, one bushel of salt and twenty-five
pounds of pepper.
In North Carolina that concoction would
be called Brunswick stew" and mighty
good stuff it is-the stuff that makes a
man feel to thank God for the room he
has inside of nim." If the Democrats
keep up the ''burgoo" campaign they will
win in walk.

Is 1T A TRUE INDICTMENT!

In discussing the incendiary and dan
gerous talk of Rev. ]. C. Massee, the
Charlotte Observer says of the negro:
"He is not ill-treated ncr improperly
Disseminated against except in the courts,
and for the injustice done him there
there seems to be no remedy
Is this indictment true? Do the courts
improperly discriminate against the ne
gro? Is he denied Justice? If so. is it
true that there is no remedy?
Two incidents have lately occurred in
North Carolina that negative this sweep
ing charge. Not many months ago, negro
shot and killed a conductor on the Seaboard
Air Line train near Henderson, was tried
and sentenced to be hung. The Supreme
Court reversed the lower court and the
negro was given the benefit of the doubt
about generalization and his life was saved.
citizen of Harnett county was killed by
a negro, as the citizen was riding along
the road. The negro said that it was
accidental and because of his character
and attendant circumstances his state
ment was accepted, and he is not be tried
for the killing IT. no doubt true that
,tlGfe is sometimes a miscarriage of JUS
tice in the case when negro is being
tried. but the same thing is true as to
white men. If a negro is indicted for
stealing something small the general opin-
ION is that he is guilty, but if he proves
a good character, it requires as strong
evidence to convict him IS it does to
convict a white man. Go into any court
house in North Carolina and follow the
trial of a negro charged with crime, and
If he has hitherto borne 4 good reputa-
ton you will see plenty of white men
interesting himself to secure his acquit-
tai Indeed it often happens tnat len
iency is shown to some negroes in the
courts because of low intelligence.
Statistics prove that in proportion to
population more negroes are convicted
OF crime in Massachusetts, than IN North
Carolina Does that look like negroes
cannot get justice in the North Carolina
courts? If so, it proves that they are
even more Disseminated against in the
courts of Massachusetts.
We do not believe that negroes are dis
eliminated against in the courts OF North
Carolina Evidence has not been pro-
duced to show that such a state of af-
fairs exists in this State. II it is true
it is a disgrace to our civilization, and
there is a remedy. Let the proof he
forthcoming let the cases be pointed out,
and the press can agitate and secure equal
protection for every man, white and black,
in our courts of Justice. More than that:
no Judge in North Carolina could Sc
cure and maintain the confidence of the
people of this State if he should per-
NIT discrimination against the negro in
his courts What judge has done this?
In what case?
Let us have the proof or let not the
assertion that reflects upon the honor and
good name of the State go abroad to our
injury.
