 in uniform. Tyrrell pleaded guilty and the board voted to suspend him for thirty days. The board was the more inclined to be severe because within forty-eight hours previous to the of- fense the members of the efficiency committee had visited the house where Tyrell is stationed and gave the men pointers on the rules. The efficiency committee is thoroughly aroused and 1t was voted that the rules should be vigorously enforced and that steps be taken to stop the gossip that emanates from the fire engine houses. This is considered subversive to discipline. The reorganization of the board re- suited in the choice of Commissioner John H. Pearce as president of the board. MT.

Senator Spelacy said he represented the Elks at Mi1detown, who are to hold fair, and who want to award prizes with their tickets, The present law, he said, was dead letter, and should be taken from the statute book, He requested an early report.

es States in ex parte. Ayess. 123 u
s. 443. a leading case upon this SUP
iect. In which the opinion was oe-
iivered BY Mr.. Justice Matthews
The North Carolina court in SUD
stance SAYS that while this SUIT Is
nominally against certain stare OF
ficers. IL is actually a suit against the
state. because the sole purpose OF
the bill is by final decree to perpet-
ualIy enioin the enforcement OF the
act of the general assembly OF 1907
that the question as TO whether a
suit is within the prohibition OF the
eleventh amendment is not always
to be determined by reference TO the
nominal parties on the record; that
the state of North Carolina is an In
dispensable party and that therefore
the suit can not be maintained, as
the relief sought is not against the
defendants of record in their indi-
yidual capacity, but in their repre-
sentative capacity as officers OF the
state of North Carolina. In sustain
ing this conclusion the court quotes
largely from Fits VS.. McGhee, l'Z
L. S. 416, and other decisions OF
the supreme court of the United
States. The court says the case OF
Railway Company vs.. Mimi, l3f u.
S. AIS, so much relied on by de-
PENDANTS, is far from being an
authority against the conclusion
reached.
After disposing of the federal
questions presented in the briefs and
arguments of counsel for the de-
fendant, the opinion reaches that
part of the case which presents pure
ly question of state law and in
wolves a construction OF the act or
the general assembly OF 1907.
| The court holds that it Is per-
| fectly evident that the legislature
! has failed to make the corporation
| indictable in the criminal proceed
/ ing for a violation of the act. The
| opinion points out that Section 4
| of the act specifically provides Tor
remedy by indictment against the
agents of the railroad, but when II
comes to providing remedy against
| the corporation itself, knowing that
a corporation could not be imprison-
! ed or be the subject of corporal pun
| ishment in any form. the general
assembly in its wisdom provided
very severe penalty for each and ev-
cry violation of the act, recoverable
by the person aggrieved in the civil
action.
The court holds that Section 4 ap'
plies to every provision of the act
and shows conclusively that the leg
isIature did not intend, even If it had
the power to do so, to inflict double
punishment upon the corporation
but preferred to enforce obedience
to the law by means Of penalties tt

FRAUDULENT TAX LISTING.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

We give to our readers this morn
ing the full text Of the presidents s
annual message to congress Wh1cn
was sent to that body on yesterday.
It is, as our readers will see, an
extremely long document-much
more voluminous than such papers
usually are Because of its ex-
treme length and of the many SUBJ
iects discussed in it, we find it i'm
possible in the short space allowed
us in the editorial columns OF The
Messenger to make summary Of It's
contents. Our readers will find it
properly subheaded so they can turn
to any subject on which they are es-
pecially interested. The document
is entirely too long. Had Mr.. Roose-
Welt confined himself to third OF
the space he took to say what ne
did to congress and to the public
many more people would read 1t.
Another objection we have to the
message is that it is too much on
the decisive; there is too evidently
a strained effort to defend his for
mer utterances and the course of ac-
ton he has pursued. The message
will not average up to the former
state papers of this president. He
quotes too much from his former
messages in the apparent effort to
show that he has been consistent
throughout his incumbency of the Of
fee of president in the position he
has taken in reference to many mat
| ters in which the public is chiefly
! interested. There is too much in 1t
of Il told you so and so some years
ago. On the two subjects in which
| the people are chiefly interested he
| is non-committa1 if any thing. He
| believes in the government control OF
| railroads and Of the corporations
| but he wants these corporations to
| understand that his administration
! is not going to give them mucf
| trouble, and on the tariff question
| he wants the country to distinctly
| understand that he has been Wo1
| over to the side of the stand-patter:
Until after the next presidential
election, at any rate. For severa
months the public has been looking
forward to his message; now tina
it has it we think the chief feeling
of those who wade through it's grea
length will be one of disappointment
