that he is "One Of the five Democratic
Senators President Roosevelt is said

If all the claims are based upon no
better evidence than the above, that
treaty will fail, for it is not believed
for a moment that either of the North

THE LION IN THE PATH.

We are in favor of Overman's bill
and every other measure that will
help get larger markets for American
manufactured goods, but just as lone
as the present high tariff law is on the
statute books England will get the
bulk Of the business. In November
last Americas total exports of manu-
featured cotton of all kinds was valued
at $5,015,5S5. In the same month
England sold s35,451,6S0. or seven
times as much cotton goods.
We have every advantage owe
England except one. We cannot swap
goods like the English people. Our
prohibitive tariff is the lion in the
path. The Overman bill will help.
more steamships will help. and active
work by consuls will help, but Dingley
rates will max it impossible to give
American manufacturers a air chance
with English manufacturers.

Senator SAKE is quoted as saving:
This bill is aimed At the Newport

avenue stocked with fine furniture
and paintings, none of which is taxed
because Of the fiction that it is the
property Of persons living outside of
the State
North Carolina needs an act that
will reach rich t~aX-dodgers. The re-
cent statement under oath made by
Mr.. Buck Duke, head of the Tobacco
Trust, that he considers himself q
citizen of North Carolina, is notice to
the taxing authorities to put him on
the textbooks and let him pay back
tax for as long a time as he has
escaped taxation in New York or New
Jersey by considering himself "a
citizen of North Carolina But Mr..
Duke is not the only man who jug
Stes with his residence and escapes
taxation. The Legislature needs to
pass an act leaving it to q jury to say
what is the residence Of a tax-dodger.
During Governor Aycock's term of Of
fee, a prominent and wealthy gen
tie1nan requested an appointment
from the Governor as Director Of the
North Carolina Railroad. He owned
stock IN the road, stood high in the
State. and the Governor determined
to give him the appointment. On the
day before the appointment was to be
made the Governor heard that, in or
Ger to escape taxation, the applicant
had made affidavit that he did not re-
side in the city where his home was.
hut that he was q citizen Of a dis
tant State and did not vote IL North

cock did not give him the appoint
