Proqress of the War Between Russia
and Japan.

Rev. P. R. Law in Lumberton Robesonian.
1t is claimed that Japan has been
both bold and tactfuf and gained
naval victories that really were neces-
sary and will prove to be of far-reach
ing Importance in the progress OF the
war. BY two naval battles fought
and won at the same time and 300
miles apart, she has secured herself
against invasion, made safe the trans
port of her soldiers across the sea,
estopped the junction Of the Russian
naval squadrons, and made it neces-
sary for Russia to transport supplies
and reinforcement for her army over
single track railway from st. Peters
burg. This appears to be very far
reaching. Hardin, in Manchueria. is
the point where the railway from
Port Arthur taps the great Siberian
railway from St. Petersburg to Vladi-
vostock, on the coast of the Japan
sea. 1t is around this point, pos
sibly, the battles of the war will rage
in hottest furry The Japanese love
the sword by instinct and we dare say
whatever the cost or results OF the
war her martial spirit will have ample
fields for its exploiting.

Taxes and Poll Tax.
New Bern Journal

ANtN bClA
The urgency of the tax collectors,
and especially the published request
from the Sheriffs of the different
counties, for tax delinquents to come
forward and settle promptly for what
they owe in the way OF taxes, is
equally important to those who owe,
as we'll as to those who are elected, or
appointed to collect these taxes.
More especially is the matter OF the
payment of the poll tax important,
for failure topay this tax before May
first, this year, means that those who
have failed will lose their right to
vote in the elections of this year.
1t is the penalty, which those who
do not pay their poll tax before May
first, 1904, must suffer, the forfeiture
of all right to vote in the Important
elections which are to take place this
year.
The failure to pay this poll tax be-
fore May first, with the consequent
loss of the voting privilege, does not
mean that this exempts the delin-
quent from payment, for the tax
must be paid any way.
The Importance OF vote this year,
and every year, ought to be sufficient
to cause every poll tax payer to meet
his obligation long before the day
when the limit is set.
And it is not too much to say that
all taxes should be paid, so that no
tax payers name goes upon the de-
linquent list.

DIVORCE LAWS OF NORTH
CAROLINA TOO LAX.
Legislation Needed to Check This
Growing Tendency.

Wilmington Messenger.
Three divorces were granted at Will
son court last week in one day, and
it wasn't a good day for divorces
either. The people of North Carolina
should be careful in selecting legisla-
tors to choose men who will repeal
the lax additions to the law. Men
whose incomes largely come from get
ting divorces should be instructed
how to vote if nominated and
Observer. !
There is no doubt that the divorce
laws of this State are too lax and are
becoming more so with each session
OF the legislature. That body has be-
come too prone to pass laws creating
new grounds for divorce to suit some
individual case and then when the
parties interested have secured their
divorce under it's provisions to repeal
the act. This is most vicious legisla-
tion and ought not to be counten-
anced. 1t is furthermore in violation
of the spirit OF the State constitution.
That declares the legislature shall
not grant divorces in nindividal cases,
but may pass generallaws regulating
divorces. To pass law general in
terms, but enacted solely for the be-
nefit of a person whose case does not
come within any of the provisions of
the law granting divorces is pro-
ceeding on the part OF the legislature
not contemplated by the men who
put the above mentioned prohibitive
clause in the State constitution.
This scheme for nullifying the pro-
visions of the organic law of the State
is the production OF the fertile brain
of some latter-day lawyers with
clients who wish divorces, but cannot
bring their cases within the legal re-
quirements. 1t is a'whipping of the
devil around the stump. There is
very little difference between the leg
islature granting a divorce in an In
dividual case and passing an act
creating a new cause for divorce for
the benefit of a certain party and
then repeating that law as soon as
the interested person has taken ad-
vantage of it. Public sentiment
should be aroused against such leg
islation. The people should show
their disapproval OF it by refusing to
send to the legislature any man whose
record shows him to be an advocate
of such laws.

McKINLEYS DEATH A SAD
BLOW.
Hanna Nsver the Same After the
Tragedy at Buffalo.

When Mr.. Hanna, eight years ago,
came into nationalprOminence as di-
rector of the movement to nominate
William Mckinley for President he
did not by any means look his fifty
nine years. Round-faced and bright
eyed, with the glow of health in his
cheeks, his age would not have been
guessed at over fifty. In those days
he had never made political speech
and was not wholly free from diff
dence He was free and easy, how
ever, in his intercourse with men, and
no one ever made friends more rapid
ly. His personality then, as ever
afterward, was most pleasing.
The hard work incident to the first
Mckinley campaign and events fol-
lowing told upon Mr. Hanna. Still
cherubic of countenance, he began
gradually to show his age. Careful
as to his diet and regular as to hours,
sc far as his busy life would permit.
he nevertheless worked under a ten
sion that left it's marks. He suffered
from rheumatism, and heavy cane
became his companion.
Mr.. McKinley's assassination was
a blow to Mr. Hanna which did more
than all else to shatter his health.
His devotion to the President was
brotherly in character. Their affec-
tion for each other was strong and
tender. Mr.. Hanna on hearing OF the
tradgedy at Buffalo took the first
train for that city, overwhelmed with
grief Close friends remarked that
he aged ten years in a day. Since
that time, though naturally vigor-
Gus, he had never been his former
self. His attacks of rheumatism be-
came more frequent, and he, more
than any one else, realized that a
limitation must be put upon all
further undertakings.
When urged to become a candidate
for President he would say: "No; |
cannot do it. This is not for me. y
The pressure was very great at times,
as all well-informed men know, but
his answer, in effect, was always the
same. He, and those nearest him
knew that he could not 60 through
such a campaign, or, if he did, that
the grave would be at the other end.

Russia Must Live Differently Here
after.
New Berne Journal.

New Berns Journal
Every report from the far East,
whether it be from the Russian or
Japanese source, shows most con-
vincingly that Russia was and is
wholly unprepared for this war with
Japan.
The difference between the two ma
tions in size of area and population,
gave the war aspect a most one sided
appearance before hostilities COM
menced. And in addition was the
pOrtentOus attitude of Russia, with
her assumption OF bluff and terror in
spring attempts to bulldoze Japan
and the rest of the world
The two facedness of Russia is now
seen by all the world. The establish
ment of The Hague, which should
prove the tribunal to settle every
dispute between nations, and so pre-
vent wars. At the same time, VIOLA
tion of the trea ties with nations,
taking possession of territory not
her own. Ill treatment of the Jews,
injustice towards all who refused to
| accept the Russian dictum.
Russia todayis exposed and known
to the world as fraudulent in her
claims for peace, as by the Hague
tribunal, and a bully as shown by
her assumption of rights in Man.
| churia, and the occupation of terri
tory belonging to others.
Russia's false pretences and bluffs
fhave secured for her so much, that it
seemed one everlasting game, one
which would always win, and with
each fresh accession of wrongfully ac-
quired territory, the Empire became
more imposing and brought alarm
to outside nations which seemed
satisfied, if only Russia would not
touch them.
| But a champion in Japan has
proven the shallowness of Russia s
power, that it is not so great as it
has pretended to be, and the world
gets a clear insight to the real Russia
and from this time Russia cannot
violate treaties, trample on human
rights and steal territory, for tht
civilized nations will make her livt
up to international laws, or become
an Outcast nation.
