CJUFORD SETS THE PACE.

one of the greatest victories Tor
education was won in Guilford county
on Nav Sd when Morehead township
containing five districts and one dis
trict in Friendship township voted a
local tax to increase the school facll-
tiles and lengthen the school term.
This territory includes the Finishing
Mills the Terra Gotta works, J. Van
Lindley's Nurseries and the furniture
factories just outside the Greensboro
incorporation; 'and the best part
about it, said the friends of the
movement. was that the men behind
these enterprises and upon whom the
principal burden of taxation Will fali'
were the most earnest advocates OF
the tax
DR.. Charles D. McIver, writing con-
corning the success of the election IN
Morehead township, says: Ever since
I have been in the township I have
been trying to secure a local tax. Al
| the first election in 1895 there Were
only three votes cast in its favor. In
| 1891 pTOUdDly III VI viz 'Oe~
were in it's favor On Tuesday we won
by a very decided majority" When
it is considered that only few years
ago only three votes could be muster
| ed in favor of a local tax in all this
rural district, it is indeed a cause for
congratulation, and the best evidence
| that the people of North Carolina are
gradually turning in favor of provid-
| ing better schools. That Mr.. j. Van
Lindley, the Borens and other large
property holders in the territory gave
enthusiastic support to the movement
ought to give encouragement to all
who are working for local taxation.
Supt. T. A. Sharpe and his progress
sive county board are doing great
work for the children of Guilford
county and are setting the pace for
other counties. There are now twen-
ty-five local tax districts in that coun-
ty and the tax has been voted on all
property for about ten miles west of
Greensboro, including Guilford Col
lege, which was the first rural district
in that county to levy a local tax.

WOULDN'T RECOGNIZE THEIR
WORK.

Under the Rough Riderism that is
checks in the Constitution are over
ridden ruthlessly. The able woodrow
Wilson is quoted as saying that the
men who framed the Constitution
would hardly recognize it now with
the interpretations that have been
placed upon it. 1t is contended that
President can repeal acts OF Con-
gress by treaty, and not only that, he
can practically secure the independ-
ence of a seeding State in order to
negotiate a treaty not otherwise OBJ
tainable. 1t was evidently never i'm
agined that the sections defining the
movers of the executive would stand
such stretching.
Not many days ago, in an address
before the law students of Columbia
University Justice Harlan, whose po-
litical education has made him rather
a loose constructionist, said:
LET us hope that this great instru-
ment (the Federal Constitution)
which has served so we'll, will weather
the storms which the ambitions of
certain men are creating in an effort
to make this country a world power.

AN IMPORTANT STEP.

Last night the Board of Aldermen
adopted ordinances requiring that al
physicians report to the Board oil
Health the names of all tuberculous
persons in their practise. Provision
was made for supplying disinfectants

premises after removal. These regu-
lations were proposed by the Cham

a committee composed of Prof. w
Withers, DIR. Hubert A. Register and
7. Joseph E. Pogue.

A DIPLOMAT OF DIPLOMATS.

The banquet given by the Illinois
Society of New York city in honor of
it's newly elected president, Mr.. Mel
Vile E. Stone, was marked by the
character of the tributes paid to Mr..
Stone. AS the head of the Associated
Press, the greatest association in the
world, Mr.. Stone is known in every
country under the sun. 1t was his
wise diplomacy that secured from
Russia the war news, hitherto ruth
lessly censored. Count Cassin, the
Russian Ambassador, expressing his
regret at not being able to attend the
banquet, wrote:
Il should consider it a high privi-
lege and pleasure to be present and
personally bear witness to the great
service Mr.. Stone is daily performing
in the spread of truth and civilization.
In Russia, as III his own country Mr.
Stone and the great organization of
which he is the head, the Associated
Press, stand for that kind of fearless
honesty which is so characteristic of
America and Americans
The German Ambassador, Baron
Speck Won Sternberg, paid this trib-
ute to Mr.. Stone:
Kindly offer to Mr.. Melville E.
Stone my hearty congratulations on
his signal success in familiarizing the
| worlds peoples with their affairs. Mr..
Stone and his trusted news gatherers
in both worlds have, through their
promptness, thoroughness, tact, and
discretion, become the valuable and
| indispensable agents of those in whose
hands have been placed the fate OF
nations. The Associated Press has
secured concessions and privileges
| heretofore unknown in the realms of
| journalism. 1t has a standard which
every modern journalist should strive
| to emulate. / wish the eminent chief
of news gatherers well with all my
| heart in his future endeavors to draw
| the worlds peoples closer together"
| Mr.. Stone is worthy of these trib-
utes from diplomats who stand among
| the foremost. He is himself a diplo-
mat of diplomats. He showed himself
a matchless diplomatist as well as as
tute business man in the organization
of the Associated Press, and in max
| ing it the only great news gathering
| association the world has known. II

The trust, which now controls anti
toxin has increased the price from
five dollars to eight dollars, and yet,
with this price making this needful
article prohibitory to the poor, the
administration declines to enforce the
criminal statutes against the trusts.

new General Knox, the attorney who
organized the Unprotected steel

Our common law is that of England.
Much of it has been found unsulted TO
our condition and to the liberal in
stitutions of our country. In this
country the people are sovereign.
They, not the king, make the courts
and the judges. In England. more
in former times than now, the Judges
were a part of regal authority ana car
ried in their persons representative
kingship. When the king was tyrant
the Judges We're tyfa1ftS, and all VINO
dared speak of the scfreatest evils in
the conduct of judges were dealt with
severely. The doctrine of contempt
derives much of its force and authority
from a spirit of oppression ana hold-
ing people in subsection to wrong IN
the powers that ruled. North caro-
lima has in her own sovereign way de-
fined what acts shall constitute con-
tempt of court. 1T mas elilliiilateu
much of the common law in this re-
gard. We don't know how much more
in this direction needs to be done, but
if abuses of judicial perogatlVe pc
come fragrant the Legislature VIII deal
with it. North Carolinians love their
laws and respect their courts, put they
will not concede that the Judge can
do no wrong, that he is not the SUD
iect of criticism. that attorneys ana
Iitieants can be compelled by him 70
trv their cases before him when all
gree that they do not wish to DO So
| nor will they concede that a judge
shall have the right to punish men
who don't like him and agree that
they will not try cases before nm.
Freemen here feel that their freedom
is equal to that of official prerogatiVe
and that prerogative is subordinate TO
| the rights of men. The authority OF
courts rightfully exercised should De
upheld; deferential respect should De

Judge Justice Did Right.

Greensboro Telegram.
There seems to be a decided incli-
nation on the part of some of North
Cardinals judges to put a stop to SO
much divorce getting. A late instance
was when Judge Justice in Mecklen-
burg court instructed a juror in di-
vorce case to be withdrawn and a
mistrial to be had. In disposing of
the case he said: This is a reputable
looking man, and no doubt his wife
is a nice woman; and they should live
together. / cannot allow the case to
go to the ury on this evidence. The
cause of the separation should be re-
moved; that is, this plaintiH should
make further efforts to live with his
wife, and her people should not inter-
fere." This is, therefore, another
case where the law is just plain COM
mon sense. Should make further eff
forts" That's the remedy for incom-
patibility of temperament and the
thousand other excuses for divorce.
The discouraged brother, or sister, it
may be, should keep trying until he
or she gets reconciled.

The State Constitution should be
amended so that the Legislature would

If the change is made the expenses
of a session of the Legislature would
be lessened the danger of contracting
colds and pneumonia by imperfect
ventilation or from other causes would
be greatly reduced, and more farmers
and business men would be elected to
represent us in the laW-mak1ng branch

Ask a farmer now to be candidate
for the Legislature and almost inVa-
riabiy he will tell you he cannot be
away from his farm from January TO
April, the most important time, per-

man. August and September are the
