EnqIneer Dunn Injured.

Engineer Dunn of the Birmingham Southern railroad was rather painfully, though not seriously injured this morning about g. o'clock by striking his head against passenger coach which had been left on a side track too near the main line of the railroad. MT. Dunn was looking to the rear of his train for a signal at the time of the accident and did not notice that the car with which he collided was too near the track. He was carried to the office of Dr. Wynne and Clark, where his wounds were dress ed, thence to his home on Avenue D and Twenty fourth street.

Wilkesboro, N. c., Jan. my at
Lention has been called to an alleged
letter to me published in the papers
from that contemplate liar, Spencer
Blackburn. I have received no such
letter from him nor has he served up
on me any notice of contest. His allega-
tons relative to Governor Glenn. Lieu
tenant Governor Winston and myself
are so absurdly false that they might
demand more notice were they other
than extraordinary lies of very CONF
mon, ordinary, indecent liars. I have
never represented the American Book
Company in any capacity, nor have ]
ever asked or ~conspired with Governor
Glenn to adopt such books. Governor
Glenn has never even told me he would
be a candidate for United States
Senator, and while I am glad to state
he 1abored to defeat Mr.. Blackburn he
did no more than any good citizen

The South INDICATED.

Announcement has been made of the
plans for the celebration of the one-hun-
dreth anniversary Of the birth OF
Robert E. Lee. The exercises are to be
held in Lexington, Va, the seat of
Washington and Lee University, owe
which General Lee presided for five
years after the Civil War was ended.
The principal address of the occasion
will be delivered by Charles Francis
Adams, who has been noted in recent
years for his strong declarations favor
able to national appreciation Of the
character and services of the great
Virginian.
1t was distinctly to the credit of Lee
that when the fighting was over and the
cause was lost he was unwilling to be
an obstructionist, spending his time in
denunciations of the victors and giving
his powerful influence against sub
mission to the inevitable. He might
responsibility in some business enter
prise which would have profited by the
use OF his name. He might have been
provided for by those who loved him
who would have arranged some inecure
where he might have spent the evening
of his life in quiet ease. But none OF
these things appealed to him. His
nature was not such as to enjoy that
sort OF existence.
Instead, in the fall of 1865, he went to
IL ga 1890 80 rfor, 70 oCCr1roQ
the presidency of Washington College,
a small Institution rich in historic
associations. But the end of the wal
it in a crippled condition, with
nothing on it's campus likely to attract
the services of the most famous general
Of the South, himself a member of one
of the most distinguished families of the
cold Dominion"
But Lee had expressed himself
strongly that what was most needed at
the time was support OF everything
toward restoring peace and
harmony. and he felt that no better
field for him could be found than that
in which he'might teach the young men
submission to authority. What he was
able to do in this direction during the
five years of his presidency the 900
students under him are to try to tell at
anniversary of his birth.
It is appropriate that a Massachusetts
man, bearing an honored name, should
pay tribute to one against whom he
fought in the Civil War. h great
grandson of the "rebeI'' John Adams
has been trained in a school of history
looks at things in the large. He
can rightly judge the place Of the "rebel'
Robert E. Lee when the history of the
world is written. This modern age is
quite disposed to generous treatment of
who were the leaders of the South
in the Civil War nearly half a century
ago, and who, when the struggle was
over, used all their powers to promote
harmony and reunion-Chicago Tri-
bune.

LEGALITY OF AN INCOME TAX.

President Roosevelt's proposal of an
income tax has been ~singularly well
received in both parties: among the
rich as well as the poer. 1t is remark
ably popular, and fully 80 per cent of
the people in the country stand ready
to endorse it.
But would such a tax be declared
constitutional? There's the rub.
When the law of 1894 came before
the United States supreme court, Chief
Justice Fuller and Justices Brewer,
Gray and Field voted to declare it I'M
constitutional, while Justices Harlan,
White, Brown and Shiras voted the
other way. Justice Jackson of Nash
vile was i'll. The case was reheard
when Justice Jackson was we'll enough
to AXE his seat, and he voted to de-
clare the law constitutional, but in the
meanwhile Justice Shiras had gone
over to the capitalistic side, and the
vote Of the court stood five to foul in
favor of unconstitutionality. Of the 9
members of the court that time four
~remain-Chief Justice Fuller inc us
tice Brewer, who said the law was un-
constitutional, and Justices Harlan
and White who said it was constitu-
tional. The new members of the our
are Justices Peckha1n, McKenna,
Holmes, Day and Moody. The chances
are frst-rate that at least three of the
five would vote in favor of the con-
stitutionality of an income tax-possi-
bly, all five, because public sentiment
leans strongly that way at present. A
retrial Of the question seems desirable
at any rate.
Up to the fve-by-four decision the
supreme court had held, all the way
from 1894, that the phrase "direct
taxes'' in the constitution was con-
fined to poll taxes and direct taxes on
land, building and personal estate.
Until Shiras whipped over to the
other side no one had considered an In
come tax a direct tax. The income tax
of the civil war period was not con-
sidered a direct tax. The Shiras flop
changed the course of the decisions. In
order to inspire respect in the supreme
court another decision on this question
is needed-one in which public senti-
ment will have weight as well az the
interests" Outside of the Presidents
proposal the general situation call for
another review of the problem by the
highest court in the land.

The COTTON CONVENTION.

'As cotton is considered one Of the
necessities of life, the action to be taken
by the Southern Cotton Association,
which meets in annual convention in
Birmingham on January 18th, is all
the more Interesting to the civilized
world said a cotton man yesterday.
t'The monetary value of cotton will be
one of the chief questions before the
association. At present the value of
one crop of cotton to the farmers is
nearly 500, 900 900. When this crop is
converted through the spindles and
looms into the finished fabric, along
with the by-products, it will command
fully So, OOO, 100000.
ttThe policies to be adopted by the
convention may largely succeed in con-
trolling the future price of cotton. The
three years trial given the association
in dealing with the hard problems of
regulating the cotton acreage and the
price of cotton has given b farmer
some valuable experience. b cotton
association is not only an experiment,
but is a body of hard working and ear
nest Southerners, striving by every
means possible to follow policies that
will protect the South.
"At the January convention various
and sundry questions will be consid-
cred. other problems that go hand in
with the ogr of the South's onward
march, will come up for their part OF
attention.
LAS the time approaches the proposed
selection of officers by the executive
committee is being discussed. So far,
the most prominent mentioned candi-
dates flor the presidency have been
Haryie Jordan and Thomas E.. Watson,
both of Georgia. However, there is
some talk of a Mississippi or a Texas
man being elected. Thomas Watson

mirers among the cotton growers. On
the other hand, Harvie Jordan has,
during his three years administration
as the head of the association, rendered
the farmers some valuable service. His
work a been deeply appreciated, and
is being commended on all sides. He
has announced that he would stand for
reelection, provided the sentiment of
the association favored his remaining
as the leader of the movement. The
executive committee has the naming
of the president, and Mr.. Jordan, should
he enter actively for the place, would be
very hard to beat.
"On account Of the size of conven-

members of the association will doubt
less signify its choice for president, and
the executive committee will probably
carry out their will"
