ECONOMY AND SALARIES.

Economy that gets down to brass
tack detail must be the ruling spirit
Of the Legislature during its special
struggle with the finances Of the Ter
ritory. Hitherto the economical pol
icies of this Territory have been strong
generalities previous to the session
and apparently impractical when the
work is In full swing.
There is no doubt that many errors
OF the past have been due to the lack
OF cooperation between the Executive
and the Legislature and the failure Of
the Executive to place definite scheme
OF administration before the legislat-
ors. The average legislator comes to
his duties filled with desire to obtain
as much as he can for his constituents.
In the general scramble he Is prone to
forget broad Territorial interests. Par
ticularly is this true when the Execu-
tive department with its greater knowl-
edge Of detail fails to present state
ment OF the limitations within which
the Legislature is forced to act II 1t
hopes to keep within the revenues.
Practical legislative economy is not
more difficult than practical business
economy. In days gone by many leg
islators have felt they were strength
ening themselves by looking out for
their salaried friends, either increas-
ing the number of jobs or raising the
salaries. That was in the days OF lux
urious Territorial income. The tax
payer was rather Indifferent II the
draft on his purse was not increased.
Legislators are now faced with sit
uation In which the taxpayer demands
first consideration. He is no longer
indifferent and the legislator who now
struggles to protect the salary Of q
friend or political cohort because
OF friendship or political support will
fnd that the taxpayer has the final say
and will speak In positive terms.
1t being a foregone conclusion that
salary reductions will necessarily be
feature of Territorial economy. the
ink was hardly dry on the session call
before legislators were beset with re-
quests not to reduce this salary or that
In the scheme to be presented for leg
islative consideration the personality
OF the government employe will NOT
figure. The salary lists will be re-
adjusted on the basis Of the work done
and the Territory's ability to pay. Leg
islators DESTROYS OF securing the good
will Of taxpayers throughout the Ter
ritory will hold strictly to this bust
ness basis.
- Practical economy In the Legislature
means appropriations for or wiping out
OF Offices according to the work done,
without regard for the person nov
drawing the salary. Governor Garter
is reported as having taken a. strong
position against personal lobbying OF
government benehciaries for salary
favors. It Is hoped he will maintain
this stand and that members of the
Legislature will have the good sense
to realize that 1t is not the agent Of
Tom or Dick or Harry, but rather the
business agent of the people to place
the Territory on firm financial foot
ing.

is as perfectly evergreen as a holly.
Another of our interesting shrubs is
the smooth-leaved member of the holly
family, Hex Cassine. The pistilate
form of this has clusters of berries
in winter far larger and more hand
some than the ordinary holly. The
clusters are large and the berries look
like red glass. Here and there are
specimens of the ordinary holly that
seem peculiar to North Carolina. This
is the golden berried holly. We know
OF but about half a dozen trees in the
State. Some years ago we sent speci-
mems of this to Prof. Sargeant, of the
Arnold Arboretum. He wrote that he
thought that he had studied the trees
of America as thoroughly as any man
living but this was the first golden
berried holly he had ever seen, and
he hoped to root some of the cuttings
we sent him. We hope that he sue
ceeded, for we failed to root them.
Down on the coast there is another in
teresting broad leaved evergreen tree,
Olea (Osmanthus) Americana, our
representative of the olive family. 1t
does not seem to thrive far from the
sea, however. Down at the mouth of
the Cane Fear is Smiths Island, with
thousands of wild forest, and no in
habitants but the lighthouse keeper
and the life saving station crew. This
island looks like a chunk Of Florida
drifted astray. 1t is the northern
limit of the palm tree growth. All
through the woods there are large
clumps of the cabbage palm. Sabal
Palmetto, and so long as the trees are
low and sheltered by the live oak
growth around them they are very
beautiful. We have cut leaves there
that measured five and a half feet
wide and seven feet long, with petit
ole Of six or seven feet in length.
When the trees get tall and overtop
the surrounding trees the dead leaves
that hang down and still adhere are
blown down by the wind and grad
ually wear the trunk bottle shaped,
until finally the tops blow off and the
bare stems are left sticking uD here
and there until they decay and fall.
The dwarf palmetto Sabal AdanSorsli,
extends a good deal further north
around and in the great coastal
the towns near the coast the oleander
thrives in great clumpa while here
in the hills. while Sir sometimes Ds6SeS

get cut back badly every winter or

North. On the grounds of the Col
lege of Agriculture there is a big
clump of the gold leaved oleagnus,
which adds a bit of color to the wint-
er landscape. Every leaf is deeply
bordered with orange yellow, and the
plant seems SO hardy that it would
seem that it might winter much fur
