The tax assessors are, bard 1t work.
and it is reported that land values do
not seem to be Eat a premium. : There
are few. if any, people who like to pay
taxes. and entirely too many whose real
property is valued at shamefully low
figures, for purposes of taxation. This
is q mighty good time to ascertain the
actual value of land adjacent TO and
within the boundary of the proposed
lake in this vicinity. Maybe the own
ers of this property, and their agents,
will give the assessors and lake pro-
motors some interesting information
''before the ides of July" roll around.
This will be only. ar instance and no

any surprises develop from a deligent
inquiry into the merits of the sug'
gestion. The point we wish to make i
that full justice be done the county and
the tax payer as well. The escape of
taxation by one citizen entails a hard
ship on another and is radically wrong.
Each one should be willing to bear his

Chairman Simmons has called the
Democratic State Executive Committee
to meet in Raleigh, July 9th, for the
purpose of selecting q chairman to sue
coed himself, having indicated his pos
live intention of resigning. We have,
so far, been unable to see any reason or
excuse for the action of Mr.. Simmons
in this matter, inasmuch as the chair
man will have no other duties to per
form until time for calling the conven-
ton next year. But he 10 determined
upon surrender the banner'and that
settles it. The executive committee
will have the selection of a successor to
consider at the approaching July meet
ing and several leading democrats are
spoken of in connection with the posi-
ton. In our candid opinion the wise
thing would be to postpone the election
of chairman until the convention is held
n It year and permit the candidates to
assist in making a proper selection.
The present efficient secretary Of tn.
committee can easily hold the chair
mans job down for awhile at least. 1t
is the wrong time to get ''mixed up" in
a contest over the craftsmanship. We
do not need a chairman now, anyway.

Feeling OF Uncertainty In Performs
ance OF Routine Work.
"When people fall into the habit of,
wondering whether they have done
routine things it is high time for them
to consider the advisability of a rest"
said a physician. There is no surer
sign. to my mind, that tho system is
becoming overtaxed than this feeling
of uncertainty.
81 was staying with a friend the
other night-spending the night with
him, in fact. He's q man whom l
know pretty well, and 1 thought at
dinner and through the evening, from
a little nervousness in his conversation
and manner, that things weren't all
right with him, but I wasn't abso-
lutely convinced till bedtime approach
ed. We were sitting upstairs In his
study, his family having retired, and
he asked me to excuse him while. he
saw that the house was locked up.
1t was a still night, and I could follow
his progress around the various rooms
on the first floor. He seemed t. me
to be unnecessarily long, and, without
being inquisitive. l really became in
terested to know whether he wasn't
making the rounds twice. Finally I
heard him go into the parlor, a room
I was sure he had visited at least once
before. When he came upstairs /
asked laughingly how many times he
had seen that each window was fas-
ened. But he wasn't in a laughing
mood at all.
It's a funny thing. old man. he
said, but I've been fool enough to look
at each window two or three times.
Do you know. 1t would strike me after
I had left a room that perhaps I hadn't
put the catch properly on n Of the
windows there, and back I'd have to
go to make sure. Being in there, I'd
examine the other windows again. It's
been that way for half a dozen nights.
Somehow doing these things doesn't
seem to make the impression on me
that one would expect. This lack Of
sureness isn't confined to locking win
dows either. l find myself at the
Office wondering whether I have given
such and such Observation-Disclosures
tons that are so much a part of my
daily work that l suppose 1 give them
mechanically and then forget them.
Nine times put of ten I find everything
is all right, but I'm not quite happy
till l do. I guess 1 must be getting
old maidish in my old age
"It was my turn to be serious then.
1 explained to him that his forgetful-
ness all came from being overtired.
From habit he worked like an automa-
ton, doing this, that and the other
thing In his business or home life, but
a great number Of his actions were
without the cognizance of the brain.
He needed rest and If he did not take
1t he would break down.
81 got him away from cares for a
bit, and the next time I saw him he
laughed as heartily over the incident
Of the much locked windows as I pre-
tended to. He doesn't know it, but he
had a narrow escape. I'm telling this
story that it may serve as a warning
in an overstrenuous age."-New York

knowledge for themes. Symphony In

No human being can come into the
world without increasing or diminish
Ing the sum total Of human happiness,
not only Of the present, but of every
subsequent age Of humanity. No one
can detach himself from this connec-
ton. There is no sequestered spot in
the universe, no dark niche along the
disk of nonexistence to which he can
retreat from his relations to others,
where he a withdraw the influence
of his existence upon the moral desti-
ny of the world. Everywhere he will
have companions who will be better or
worse for his influence.

How He Remembered.

Professor Huxley had a funny way
of remembering certain anatomical de-
tails of the human heart. On the left
of the heart there Is a valve with
two flaps resembling a bishops inter
and known as the mitral valve. The
corresponding valve on the right side
has three flaps. The only means by
which he could remember their re-
spective positions, said Huxley, with
his skeptic's humor, was by the re-
hection that a bishop could never be
In the right.

There is certainly no dearth of candi-
