EFFECT ON SUFFRAGE.
Corporation Commission Had Argued
Strongly in 1902 Report for Poll
Tax Construction Now Made
by Supreme Court.

In the reference to the case Of Win
gate VS. Parker reported yesterday in
which il was held that the constitu-
tional ratio between property and poll
taxes did not apply to municipalities,
the statement that the exact point mad
never before been presented squarely
to the court was written literally; the
question having been several times
discussed in the Supreme court. not
ably in the case of Jones against
commissioners of Henderson 107 n.
c., in which the question was elabo-
rately reasoned and in which the
court said: 1--WE think the interpreta-
ton we have thus given the several
articles and clauses of the Const-tu-
ton, bearing upon the important queS-
ton raised by the appellees is the true
one. indeed. the only one consistent
with their phraseology, terms and pur-
pose. and that renders the whole IN Il
large measure harmonious. We know
that il has been stated obiter in sew
eral cases that the equation and limi-
tation of taxation referred to above
must be observed in levyings taxes TO"
municipal purposes, but it has not
been so decided, certainly not express
~ decided nor can il be, in our judg
ment, without defeating the true in
tent reasonably appearing.
In it's report of 1902 and recon-
mendations to the General Assembly
the Corporation Commission, in point
ing out the disadvantages of heavy
poll taxes in view of the recent Con-
stitutional Amendment quoted the Ian
guage of the court in Jones VS.. Com
missions as given above, and took
strong ground against the Legislature
authorizing the levy of poll taxes by
municipalities, arguing forcefully the
view which has now been adopted by
the Supreme court-that the poll tax,
except for State and county purposes
was merely permissible by legislative
enactment and not mandatory under
The constitution.
Up to this time, however the ratio
as fixed by the Constitution making
the poll tax equal to 5000. tax on prop
erty has been followed, It 10 said, in
every town i'm the State with the eX-
cepton of Elizabeth City and New
Bern and, more lately, of Spencer.
It is possible that the case of Win
gate VS.. Parker had it's inspiration in
the discussion of the question in the
Commissions 1902 report.

PLOT TO MURDER2'
Dead by Hand of Hus-
bands Cousin.
The Question Ito be Determined is Did
He Fire the Fatal Shot by
Accident or De-
sign.
Especial to News and Observer.)


Selma, N. c., Nov. 1S.-The people
here are still much excited over the
mysterious shooting on Tuesday last
of Mrs. Lawrence Price by her hus-
bands first cousin Noble Price.
Mrs. Price died from the wound at
seven o'clock yesterday and the funer-
al was held here to-day.
According to the story of the Mobiles
given out Immediately following the
shooting, it was at first thought that
the affair was the result of an acct
dent, but since then there have de-
veloped ugly rumors and suspicious
cumstances which point to a conspir-
acy to murder by the husband and his
cousin, Noble, who did the shooting.
The established facts are that the
two Prices went to the home of the
elder cousin, Lawrence, on Tuesday
afternoon. Lawrence remained in one
room while Noble went into another
where Mrs. Lawrence Price was Sit
ting.
With a pistol in his hand, he point
ed the weapon at Mrs. Price and eX-
claimed:
I'm going to kill you! I'm going
to shoot you!"
Without further explanation he fired
point blank and the woman fell with
the ball in her right breast.
lneSe IiclS were cSldDliSIcu ny IHC
testimony of all three parties to the
tragedy, Noble Price claiming that he
did not intend to shoot and that the
words We're spoken in jest. 1t has
since been learned. however. that Law
renee Price and his wife had been en-
gagged in a quarrel on the morning or
the day the shooting occurred. that
he and Noble Price had been together
all daY. and that they had been drink
ing and that one viii Collins had
overheard a conversation between the
two men in which they had discussed
the killing of the woman.
Will Collins has since disappeared
but is expected to be found in time
for the preliminary trial which will be
held before Magistrate j. II. Parker
to-day.
The two Prices. who are in custody.
have retained Messrs. Pou and Brooks
for their defense: and the prosecution
will be conducted by Mr.. c. Z. Har-
ris, OF Selma, n. c., and Col. j. {. Il.
Harris. of Raleigh.
Lawrence Price was at work laying
brick at the cotton factory but was
discharged on Tuesday morning. He
is 81 years old. Noble Price, who is
q years of age, has been employed
by his father, q local contractor.

THE LARGER CITIZENSHIP"
An Elaborate Banquet and an Address
by Bishop Gaylor.
DIV the Associated Press. }

Kansas City. Mo, Nov. 1S.--An elab-
crate banquet in commemorative of
the signing of the John Jay CONNER
cial treaty was given tonight at the
Midland Hotel in TINS city by the
Commercial Club of Kansas City. Ad-
dresses were made by Bishop Thomas
r. Gaylor, of Tennessee, j. Adam
Bede. Charles Francis Adams and 9TH
ers. Bishop Gaylor responding to the
toast Larger Citizenship said in
part:
Socialism is in the air. Primarily
It means organization the combined
efforts of the many for the good of
all.
1.-The American Trade Union and the
American Trade trust are each in its
way expressive OF tho Sociaiistic spir-
it, and doubtless have their use and
place in the progress of the world.
But when they forget their liml-
tations; when they aspire to become
enthroned oligarchies and to dictate
absolutely the industrial conditions to
eighty millions of free people they are
inviting ruin; they are sowing the wind
to reap the whirlwind.
80 there is a true socialism, as
there is a false socialism. There is
a true socialism, which operates for
the repair and prevention OF waste,
for the cure of eXtravagant eXpendi-
means also respect for manhood ana
womanhood under all condition, and
demands that the selfish crueltieS and
the barbarouS expressions that stifle
the aspirations and the lives of thou
sands in our land, shall be obliterated
from our social system. And then.
there is a false socialism, which seems
to forget that there is one thing quite
as important as the distribution of
wealth, and that is the production of
wealth Schemes to remedy the in
euualities in the distribution of wealth
are worthless if they leave no wealth
to distribute.
81 believe the American patriotism
means the effort in every honorable
way to create on sea and land and
under every sky. a respect for the
power and virtue as we'll as for the
commercial prosperity of the Ameri-
can name. 1t means ultimately such
a regulation of the right of suffrage
ae shall impress upon all the people
the fact that American citizenship is
a. privilege too lofty and trust too
sacred to be committed carelessly in
to the keeping of illiteracy and in
competency and improbity. 1t means
finally. the elevation of the intellec-
tual and moral ideal of the individual
through a system of education which
is not only universal but up TO GER
tain point, compulsory; broad enough
and brave enough to make moral
principles as well as special learning
part of a ciruculium of public
school"
