Senator Overman's Speech on the
Tariff.
Statesville Landmark.

Statesvile Landmark.
Senator Overman's dissection of
the tariff bill is good. While the
country generally expected-and had
Il right to expect from the promises
made-that there would be general
revision OF the tariff bill in the inter-
est of the people at large-a down
ward revision that would tighten
the burdens of the masses-if they
could have known what they were to
get they would have insisted that no
revision be made at all. In addition
to the unsettled business conditions
which always accompany any change
in the tariff laws, the last state of
people as a whole will be worse than
the first, for it is apparent that the
Aldrich-Payne bill will, as a whole,
impose heavier burdens than the
Dingley bill. That being so. the
country would be better off today if
no revision had been attempted. The
only thing that the so-called revision
has demonstrated is the fact that
the trust combines who have accu-
mulated untold millions by reason of
the tariff laws, are vet all-powerful.
Through the men they control in
Congress they still have the power,
as they have had for years, to make
tariff laws that enable a few to lew
tribute on the many.

"Mr. Kluttz came with a notable

the speech of no Southern man that
has come North with recent years
has received such an ovation as this

The appointment of Senator James
S. Manning to succeed Mr.. Justice
Connor was expected. Governor
Kitchin finding and knowing Mr..
Manning to be worthy of the place
could not have done otherwise than
name him. We do not see how any
serious fault can be found with the
Governor for promoting Mr.. Man
ming to this position. Though per-
haps many of us would have named
another, Allen for instance

Mr. Manning is very able lawyer
and a loyal North Carolinian. He
is so years of age and has practiced
law for 26 years. He served in both
the House and Senate with distinc-
ton and his practice of the law has
involved many important cases.

advanced to that position without
first having served on the Superior

List Your Property Now or Pay
Double Tax.
Greenville Reflector.

Greenville Reflector
In past years there have been some
people who would not list their taxes
before the appointed township list
takers, but would wait later to list
before the county commissioners.
This course may have been prompted
by ulterior motives, but we will
not argue that point. We will say,
however, that those who have prac-
ticed that way of listing in the past
had better not do so again unless
they prefer to pay double tax. The
last Legislature passed a very strin-
gent law on this point and leaves the
county commissioners no discretion
in the matter except to follow the
law. The entire month of June is set
apart for listing and that is time
enough, and every person subject to
tax had just as we'll step up and do
his duty.

SHAME ON CHARLOTTE.

we were IloL u HUblc SuI pif ifoCo w
read in the papers last week that the
CITY Fathers of Charlotte had laid a
special tax upon its newspapers. We
do not know the nature or amount
OF this special tax but presume it is a
license tax-for the privilege OF doing
business within the corporate limits.
Such tax is levied upon other busi-
nesses-andit is we'll and proper. But
the laying Of such a tax upon the
newspapers OF a town or city is wrong
wrong in principle and practice. 1t
is an ungrateful thing to do-and OF
all traits of the human heart that OF
iDgra titude is the basest.
Not that the newspapers object to
paying any reasonable tax and doing
their full share toward the support
Of the government, State, county or
municipal, but to be made to pay a
special liscense tax, for the privilege
of doing business and in a thousand
ways contributing to the upbuilding
and betterment of the community
that is different question. 1t is the
principle OF the thing, not the amount
of money involved to which objection
is raised We are surprised that Char
lotte should do this sort of thing.
And the surprise carries pain with it
because we do not wish to change
our opinion of Charlotte, which we
have come to regard as the most
broad minded, progressive and pros
porous city in North Carolina.
Don't do it, gentlemen. The paltry
sum of money which you would sep
arate your newspapers from-and no
city anywhere has more creditable
newspapers which are doing a greater
work for their State and community
amounts to nothing, but there is a
principle involved-the principle OF
Just appreciation, of fgratitude, and for
your own sake and the sake of your
city's fair name you cannot afford to
do it. There are some things in this
life of higher value than money.
Since the above was written the
following from the Greenville Refec-
tor comes to hand and it so thor
oughly accords with our views that
we append it herewith:
One of the most ungrateful things
we know Of in connection with Char
lOtte, is the special tax which that
city levies on it's newspapers. Char
lotte is the greatest town in North
Carolina, and it's prestige is due more
to the newspapers there than to any
other factor. These papers work
hard for Charlotte day after day, and
that they should have to pay IL
special tax for this privilege is absurd.
1t would be about as reasonable to
tax ministers for the privilege OF
preaching in the city, or for man to
charge board against the COW that
furnishes milk and butter for his
family and make her pull plow or a
dray to pay her board. This special
tax against newspapers is one that
Charlotte should hasten to wipe out,
from q sense of gratitude if nothing
else.
