SM OkED OUT
i. IL j.

We are really glad to know that
Mr.. William Glasmann has been
smoked out and according to recent
issue of his paper we are credited
with having extracted the statement
from the willy gentleman. II has been
presumed all along that he was a
candidate for Congress, in fact a
great many OF his friends have said
as much, and the gentleman himself
has been wearing the "Barkas is viii.
lin" toga for some time. hut all is
settled now, and none of the delegat-
es will have the pleasure Of voting
for Mr.. Glasmann at the state con.
vention for place on the congress
sional ticket, unless 1t should develop
that he is the only man that can re-
present the people as they should De
represented, and under such con-
tingency We take 1t that you would
permit your name to be presented,
now wouldn't you Bill? or course
you would. You say you have taken
up the cause Of progressive republi-
canism for the good you can do the
common people, and you ask nothing
in return. This is nothing new for
you. It is your old stock in trade and
Is synonymous with your life. You
went to the Legislature for the good
you could do the common people and
expected nothing in return. You are
just being natural now, and in case
a congressional nomination should
blow your way you would accept~ft
for the good of the service" would
you not? And why not? why me-
thinks thou dost protest too much. .
You are congressional timber and
have a right to contest for the nom.
ination II you want to, and If you get
the nomination we will support you.

THE HANSEN DEAL
4.
The transfer OF the property of lle
Cache Valley Condensed Milk COM
pany, by Manager Lorenzo Hansen to
the Borden interests of New York,
together with statements of future
operation connected Herewith, to our
mind makes the transaction one of
magnitude and is worthy of mention.
In the first place we congratulate
Mr.. Hansen on making a deal that Is
entirely satisfactory to himself. In
conversation with him he has inform
ed us that he made a good deal, and
all will no doubt be glad to know of
his good fortune in this regard as no
one likes to hear of any of their wor-
thy fellows getting the little end Of

AS to unfair competition from com
petitors" manifested in some quar-.
ters, we cannot even express an op-
inion, as this is something we have
not investigated, it being purely the
business of the companies engaged
In the business. They know their bust
ness, and we know ours. 1t would he
decidedly presumptuous on our part
to even express an opinion as to "un-
fair competition" without exhaustive
investigation. 1t is our province III
the transaction to report the news,
and call attention to such items as
may be OF interest and benefit to the
upbuilding Of the community.
The statement that the purchasing
company intends to spend some
5000. 100000 in our midst in improving
and building up the milk industry is
what appeals TO us twentyfour hours
during the day. If there Is one thing
we like more than the expanding of
money for improvements intended TO
bring forth the finished product from
raw materials and furnish work for
our own boys and girls, 1t is the ex.
penditure of more money for this pur,
pose. We have said time and time
again that we need more industries
We need more improvements. We
need capital, and the future testing
Of this valley depends principally up
on the products of the soil. Here Is
room for one hundred thousand peo
pie, and when that time arrives the
choice land of the valley will be pro
ducing the sugar beets, the fruits

THE TARIFF REFORMERS.
Tariff for Revenue Only" Will Not
Be Applied to Friendly Interests.

Recently six Democratic Repre-
sentatives-elect met in the office OF
Mayor Fitzgerald, of Boston, and de-
manufacturers by agreeing to oppose
the proposed reduction of 10 per
cent on boots and shoes.
Senators Shafroth and Thomas, Of
Colorado, have declared allegiance to
the Sugar Trust, and announce that
they will oppose any considerable re-
duction of the tariff on sugar and
ores.
Senators Overman and Simmons of
North Carolina, not to be outdone by
Senators Shafroth and Thomas, now
come forth and declare their allegi-
| ance to the cotton spinners by an
nouncing that they cannot consent
| to see the cotton-spinning industry
'unduly threatened by low tariff du-
/ ties"
! And following these comes Cum
Shoe Bill' Stone, Senator from Mis-
souri, and dyed-in-the-wool Democrat
who shows signs of being panic
stricken because the lowering of the
duties on lead and zinc may effect the
Joplin district.
Later on will come the Senators

to the lowering of the present duties
on sugar because they do not care te

Major w. H. Warrington, who
claims far away Caswell County as
his legal residence, has made formal
announcement of his candidacy for
the position Of sergeant-at-arms of
the North Carolina Senate which will
convene in January. Major Waiting
ton basis his claims on the fact that
''he has voted the Democratic ticket
for fifty years and was a follower of
Lee" Major Warrington was a can
didate for this position six years ago,
and when he failed to land the job
proceeded to "cus out" the whole
Democratic party.
Our prediction is that Major Wat
| lington will not land this time, and
the presumption is that more "cuss-
ing" will then be in order.
Several years ago on one summer
day Major Warrington was sitting on
the banks of the Neuse, near the rail-
road track, fishing. At the same
time bull was using the railroad
track as a foot-path when a train
came along and knocked him off the
track and he fell on Major Waiting
ton and knocked him into the river.
Major Warrington sued the Seaboard
Railroad for injuries, but a Wake
County jury decided that the Major
would have to seek redress from the
bull instead of from the railroads.
II Major Warrington fails to get a
| job at the hands of the next Legis-
lature. he cannot sue the State, and
his only recourse will be to sue the
Democratic donkey.

Charges Against Sheriff Of Madison

Asheville, n. c., dispatch says:
That Sheriff Buckner, of Madison
County, allowed him to keep a pistol
in his room at the jail. allowed him
to eat at the family table and allow
ed him to drink whiskey whenever
he so desired were the startling state
ments made on the witness stand yes
terday by Champ Briggs, who is on
trial here for the alleged murder of
Baxter Shelton several months ago.
Briggs case was transferred to Bun
combe County from Madison because
the State insisted that it could not
get a fair trial in the latter county.
Sheriff Buckner has not yet taken
the stand, and so has had no chance
to either confirm or deny the charges
made by Briggs. Mr.. Buckner is the
same sheriff who was recently severe
ly reprimanded by Judge Boyd in
Federal court here for arresting a
witness and taking him back to Mad
ison County before the Federal court
had released the witness.

up the fight to get the parcels post

If he had been in the Senate a second

THERE is A REAL MONEY TRUST.

The Philadelphia North American,
after reviewing the testimony of J.
P. Morgan and other Wall Street
before the Congressional
money trust investigating commit
tee, says that there is now sufficient
proof that there is "a real money
trust" The Caucasian asserted this
fact twenty years ago. The North
American calls attention to the state
ment of Mr. Morgan in which he
strongly denied there was such thing
as "a money trust" but that paper
also calls attention to the fact that
Mr.. Morgan in his testimony admit
ted enough to show that he and a
few of his associates control the fl
ancial and industrial conditions OF
the country and that they could Gre
ate panic whenever they desired to
do so.

Atlanta, Ga, Dec. 21.-The unus-

year-old Frank Wilson was arraigned
for the killing of Elmonte Herndon,
aged seven, at Carey Station, near

pending az examination of the child's
mental condition
1t was brought out in the testi-
mony that the Wilson boy was an al
most constant user of tobacco in all
forms. The boys are said to have
quarrelled, after which young Wilson
ran into the house and secured a rifle,
stood on the porch and shot the
Herndon boy as he passed the house,
the bullet entering the brain.

AN ENORMOUS STATE DEBT.

The States debt now amounts to
bout three quarters OF a million dol
ars and by the time the next Legis-
ature adjourns 1t will probably .
Imount to considerably more than
million.
It was not until very recently that
he public had any information on |
his subject II we mistake not. the
State Auditors report has failed to
the State debt for several |
years.
The joint committee of the last
Legislature has been in Raleigh for
several days going over the records
and auditing the accounts in the State
Offices 1t was announced some days
ago that the States debt amounted
to 100000, but later report names
still larger figures. Senator Gardner,
of Cleceland County, is member of
the committee appointed to examine
the records and on Saturday report
er of the Raleigh Times secured the
following statement from him on the
States financial condition:
Our committee will have to
report that the State is running
seriously behind it's income. We
brought over from 1910 a deficit
of 100000. This deficit has
been increased to about $685.
600 by excess of disbursements
over receipts the last two years.
The deficit is now, therefore,
nearly three-quarters Of a mil
lion dollars, and unless the Gen.
eraa Assembly of 1913 shall do
something big by way of re-
trenchment, two years from now
the deficit will be about ST.
100000.
"'Of course Senator Gardner
continued, we cannot go one
step further at this rate. In
stead we must proceed promptly
to meet the present condition.
The meeting of this situation is
in my Judgment, the most seri-
Gus task confronting Governor
Craig and the General Assembly
that will convene January 9Th,
next. We must not only not in
crease the States appropria-
tions, but we should do all that
| is possible to arrange a budget
of retrenshment whereby this
deficit can be covered by saving
the next two or three years.
We have much to engage in the
prospect of beneficial legislation,
but the real big problem before
the General Assembly-ando one
that 1t should tackle the day is
assembles-is the handling of
this condition.
The assessment under the
Doughton act of 1911 increas-
ing revenue from taxation over
the revenue for the same source
prior to 1911 was $231,450.8O,
which would indicate that the
real estate in North Carolina has
been considerably advanced in
tax valuation"
1t was thought when the last Leg
islature passed the revenue and ma
chinery act and provided for the re
assessment of property in this Stat
that the Democrats had not only pro
vtded enough revenue to pay for tn
new Offices and increased salaries bu
would have a large amount wit
which to reduce the State debt.
Practically every kind of bushes
and every kind of article in the Stat
is taxed, the tax valuation of prol
erty was greatly increased by tn
grace of the last assessment, and sti
the State continues to run in debt.
The tax rate can't be made an
higher. SO the next Legislature wi
issue more bond or order a new a.
sessment of property and increas
the burden of taxes on the people.
Democratic good government
certainly comes high.
