One Duty of Taxpayers.
New Berne journal.

New Berne Journal
The tax payers OF n community
might be styled that class which just
hates to pay its taxes, and then
takes little heed az to how these
same dollars received from taxes are
spent.
1T is surprising that men will take
so little interest i'll following up and
personally seeing how and where
every dollar is spent that they pay
out for taxes, yet it will be found that
it is the exceptional tax payer that
can tell what becomes of the money
paid to the city, county and State
for taxes. The fault for this like OF
knowledge lies entirely with the citi-
zen. Every city, county and State
official gives for publication, with
rare exceptions, an accounting Of
moneys received and disbursed, and
these accountings are published in
some manner, usually in newspaper
so that it is Wilful ignorance OH the
part OF the taxpayer, who does not
know how and where his tax money
goes.
Good citizenship is not alone to be
law abiding, to pay taxes, to be To-
cally patriotic, with all this implies.
1t is all Of these, with an active per-
sOnal zeal and entering into the full
scheme of each, OF knowing as of
ones own business, the details of
municipal, county and State affairs,
and the knowledge OF these is IL duty
from which no citizen should fail to
follow and attain
Quite naturally the publication of
long columns of figures ana WOrled
statements of financial matters OF
city and county, looks dry reading.
But unless these same figures and
statements, the reports of the fnnn-
clal status OF the tax PAYERS city and
county are carefully read and the
pertinent facts they contain noted,
to be corrected ii need be, to be ear
rled in memory for future use. il nee
essary, unless tax payers take this
seeming trouble, they are to be 10
nOrant OF those local matters which |
so intimately affect their trade and
credit, and city's credit is a matter
which may bear Indirectly, at least.
upon every local trade interest, GER
talnly upon property values, and af- |
feet directly the tax PAYERS.
The tax payer calls for the pubIica-
ton of his city and county officials |

ii the tax payer is not going to read |
and carefully examine these reports
when published?

There Must be Reform or Socialism
Will Result.
+ Fayetteville Observer.

! Fayetteville Observer.
The best article which we have seen
on the lesson of the recent awakening
OF the people is an editorial in the
kinston Free Press entitled ''Radi-
ealism in the Air 1t is as follows:
The trend OF events clearly shows
that radlcaIsm is in the air Certain
abuses have grown up and people are
about to conclude that the only wav
to rid the body polite of them is to
cut them Off at the roots. The man
who does not suggest a radical rem
edy, these days, is not likely to OBJ
tam harrington at least a follow
ing. The average citizen may give
him a respectful hearing, but he will
shake his head and move on to some
one who will strike harder and emf
deeper.
True 1t is that some abuses have
attained an appalling growth. The
American people have for these many
years been bnsilv engaged in develop
ing their many resources. At times
it seems that they, as people. have
forgotten everything else but the
pursuit OF the dollar. They have not
had time to heed the silent growth of
powers preying upon them. Trans
pOrtatiOn companies have SLOWLY
bound these people until today they
are their victims, should they choose
to make them such. The mighty in
dustrlal combinations = commonly
called trusts-are masters of the in
dustrial field, and no one can say
them nay. ''Grafting' in high places
has become fine art, simply because
the practice has been allowed to grow
and develop. \ tariff wall is shelter
ing all kinds OF plumber and disbon-
esty. In fact people are realizing
that while they were busy with their
private affairs the powers that
prey were also busy with their own
private fairs This realization has
brought the conviction that radical
measures are necessary, and our
theory OF government is changing,
from the old fashioned democratic in
dlvIduallsm to a species of democracy
highly colored with socialism. The
formidable powers that have grown
up have brought people TO conclude
that the government, as representing
the whole, must take hand in reou-
lating affairs.
This is not necessarily an unfortu-
nate condition of the public mind. 1t
becomes unfortunate only when radi
calism goes mad Certain evils. sucb
as trust and railway operations,
tariff laws. etc. demand radical
treatment, and the hand OF the gov
eminent is the only power that can
handle them.
The next few years will find the
American people looking more close
~ into the conditions os our life than
ever before. The knife of govern
ment regulation will cut deeper than
ever before. Should the knife cut
deep enough and lop off certain
abuses. there will be a tendency to
or be cautious about further
treatment. Should there be a mere
Dretense at reform with no beneficial .
results socialism will grow and radi-
,alism will rule with undisputed
sway.
