Old man Cook was sentenced to be hung on December llth, 1908. for the murder of Case Powell. Every effort is being made to procure reprieve. and It Is quite generally believed that the governor will commute the sent ence to life imprisonment. or perhaps pardon him outright on account of his age and dependent family. The old man is said 10 have borne a good reputation up 10 the time of this tragedy, and that this was his first criminal otfense against the law. We are not prepared 10 say that the case IS one deserving executive clemencv. because We did not hear the evidence and know very little about the case and nothing whatever of his past life but It does seem q terrible thing 10 take this old mans life in this way. and we rather hope his sentence will at least be commuted. We never have been in favor of capital punish ment except in certain cases or under certain diabolical circumstances. and We do not know that there are any such in this case. 1t would he a happy Christmas for him if the gov ernor would pardon him or even com mute the sentence.

AS WASHINGTON ESTIMATES HIM.

The Washington Post, independent in politics, of loftiest ideals. better equipped, probably, than any Ameri- can contemporary with every essential to first class newspaper, has the fol- lowing splendid editorial tribute to Senator E. W. Carmack, which will be widely appreciated by the subjects many admirers in Tennessee and elsewhere.
 This man served four years in the house, and is just completing a single term In the senate. He is yet under fifty years of age, just on the thresh- hold of his intellectual prime, with it's zenith some years in the future. He would have been an ornament to British parliaments that knew Burke and Fox and Pitt. He would have been distinguished in American sen ates that contained Clay and Calhoun and Webster
 "lle leaves the public service poorer thanhe entered it, and must depend on his profession for I support. He might have been rich; he had but to stoop.
 But in the true sense, Who dares to say this American senator k poorg Where is the man who does not re- spect him? Where is the man who does not admire him? All the wealth of the land would not buy for the base his lofty character, his unblemished honor He retires from the senate re. gretted by all his fellow-senators. He is for time, at least, lost to the ppb lie service in an official capacity. but no such man as he can live. whether in public station or in private walk q single day in vain. That brilliant in. telleet, that exalted character. those splendid accomplishments, will find a way to do the work set before giants
 His fate is that Of thousands and thousands of other great men in re. publics where universal manhood snf rage maintains, and his friends glory in the Spartan courage and Roman grandeur with which he has confront ed it.

 Mrs. Allen in her maidenhood, was Miss Julia T. Cobbs, daughter of DF. J. H. Cobbs, at one time one of the leading physicians of this county. She was born in Little Rock, moving to this county with her parents soon af- terwards. and at her death was menber of one of the oldest and most prominently connected families in the county. She was a consistent member of the Methodist church,a a pure, sweet, good woman who was known and loved by a large circle of relatives and friends for her quiet, sweet womanly virtues. She was kind and loving wife, devoted mother, I genial neighbor and a true friend. She leaves a husband, one daughter, Miss Lucille, age l2, and two sons, MT. Howell, grown, and Master

 The home bereft of mother is never the same again. She is the light and cheer of the family circle. Her place can never be filled, and there is gloom over the home now, which time alone can remove. May God comfort them and heal their lacerated hearts.

matter to arrive at the actual value
of any great corporate property. Some
classes of corporate property have
more value in franchises and oppor.
tunity to do business than in real
physical properties. How to reach
and value these classes of property
has been a difficult question for the
taxing authorities of great many
states. But it is certain that investi.
cation ought to give us more light on
these questions than we have had in
the past.
The deliberations of the public ser.
vices commission and of the county
commissioners will be watched with
a good deal of interest to discover
what light they can throw on this al.
ways difficult question of assessment
and taxation.

If Bismarck, the Capital City, is to
be the last in the whole state to re.

monument that all our citizens can
point to with pride-if we are to be

INEQUALITIES IN TAXATION

The county commissioners of the
state are soon to meet in Fargo and
among the subjects for discussion will
be the matter of taxation. The public
service commission of the state is al.
so called to meet early this month,
and among their duties is to ascer.
tain the value of the various corpor.
ate properties in the state, as basis
for taxation.
If we could find the value of all
classes of property in the statef and
get all property that is now hidden
on the assessment rolls, either at Its
full value, or at an equitable proper
ton of the value for every. class Of
property, we should have done much
to solve the problem of taxation But
the thing is more difficult than II
seems.
The inequalities of taxation have
been recognized for many years, but
SO far there has been no system de
vised that will altogether avoid it
In the first place, it is not an easy
