no man who is so "mortally
stunted" as to stand for the sa-
loon in this enlightened age is
worthy to hold any Office in
North Carolina. That much
ought to be clearly settled by the
recent victory. Another lesson
from the campaign is this: those
speakers were most effective
who were the most reasonable,
temperate and good natured. The
bitter ranters replied rather than
won. Abuse is the poorest wea-
pom in the world in waging a
a campaign, and extravaganza
always rebounds upon the speak
er. We heard of a number who
were convinced that prohibition
is right, but none who were driv-
en- to the dry side. The most
heartening and wholesome les
son of Ithe whole campaign is
that the whole campaign is that
the people of North Carolina
love right. In 1881 the cause
was lost for two reasons: The
people were not educated to a
proper appreciation of the enor-
nifty of the liquor traffic, and the
negro vote was arrayed in almost
solid phalanx against prohibition;
but since that time the public
conscience has been quickened,
and last Tuesdays vote was the
voice of the people on a great
moral measure. 1t would be an
unspeakable calamity if the i'm
moral forces should win, and the
electorate of our State should
side with the unclean and de-
PRAYED. Without knowing to q
certainly the result, we are con.
fident that the citizenship Of
North Carolina are on the size
of purity and truth.-Charity

Mr.. CLEMENTS OPINION.
Poll Tax Setted and Assistant Aitor.
ney General Writes Of n.

The question of poll tax has
been in the air and the supreme
court recently rendered a decision
which affects in a small way
Durham, one Of the S. counties
that comes under the provision.
The !poll tax requirement in
this county was S2.49. Special
school tax elections made levies
allowable and there were some
times as much as IS cents ad-
ditional made. East and West
Durham are affected by this and
the TOO disfranchised voters who
did not pay their tax tax by May
l, will have it on those who took
advantage of the early months to
vote. The court holds that not
more than 81. can be charged
upon the polls and when the tax
receipts are given there will be
less required than those who
who have paid before.
There will be no rebate.
The opinion of Mr.. Clement is
appended in answer to an in.
quiry from Mr.. D. w. Sorrell, OF
the school board.
The supreme court hold as
follows:
/. That the act was constitu.
tional and that the commissioners
correctly construed it.
That without regard to the act
of the general assembly by the
imperative words of the consti.
tuition, section l, article 5, 1.-THE
state and county capitation tax
combined shall not exceed two
dollars"
No other further capitation on
poll tax than two dollars can be
levied for any purpose. Thu:
all statues levying a property tas
and poll tax combined in excess
of two dollars are invalid, SO fal
as the requirements that the pol
tax be levied, restraining tho
lpoll tax to two dollars. This de-
cision does not affect the pol
tax levied in connection with the
pension tax, that being a stat,
tax, and combined with the 9th
Q: tax, does not exceed two dol
lars.
l County commissioners, in levy
ing taxes for the present yea
will, therefore, eliminate al
special tax on polls, and levy tn,
usual two dollars, as CONSTRUCTED
by the superior court in thi
! case.
This decision in no manner af
} fects the poll tax by the state
but only requires that all specia
taxes levied by the county com

GoNld's Wife Asks for Divorce.

New York. June 26.-Papers have
been served upon Frank J. Gould in
suit for absolute divorce brought
by his wife. who was Miss Helen NJ.
Kelly. When service was made at
Mr.. Gould's office yesterday ne de-
clined to say whether he would de-
fend the suit.
Mr.. and Mrs. Gould were married
In 1901. The first rumors of trouble
came in 1906, when It was said a
separation suit was under way. A
reconciliation was effected, but ru-
mors Of dissension continued until
the actual parting last April, Mrs.
Gould remaining at their Fifth ave-
nue. home with their two children,
Helen. aged five, and Dorothy, aged
three years.
Mrs. Gould has twenty days in
which to file her bill of complaint,
and her husband has a like period in
which to file his answer
