THE FARMER AND MECHANIC.
THE CALL OF TIE PEOPLE.

The people Of North Carolina will not be salts
fled with the result Of the extra session of the
General Assembly unless there is secured for them
as fuu relief as is possible to be had from the
freight rate discrimination which / is paralyzing the
industrial and commercial life Of North Carolina.
And it can be secured if the members will reso-
lutely take hold Of the means at hand.
The prefer Of the railroads, as amended bv the
Governor and the Special Legislative Commission,
IS only a start IN the right direction. That propo-
si'lon covers only IN part the interstate freight
rates with which our people have to contend. Its
accoptance would prove Of substantial benefit,
out II goes only part Of the way. The fight must
DC kept up Tor full and complete justice all along
the nne' and it must be held in mind that on the
'eaoc1ons onered these are only to be binding,
as TO them, for two years. Beyond those reduc-
uohS snefe is a great fighting ground for the peo-
pie of the State.
Ihe General Assembly faces two distinct VET
aiued propositions to relieve the evils of exorhi.
tant and unjust freight rates in North Carolina.
ihese are the measres for a reduction Of intra-
state freight rates, and the creation of a special
commission to have a hand in the enforcing Of
these, and OF all matters connected with the rail.
ROADS IN their dealings with the people Of North
AAdy DC accepted, OlilS NAV
De passed ad ibitum, but they will prove Of no
aVaA unless there are men behind them who will
bend every energy to see that there is obedience
10 them. And the General Assembly will fall
snort OF the mark the people expect it to reach if
IL does not put the men behind the guns.
In THIS period Of the States history a snec;a,
commission to deal with the railroads is needed
composed OF men who know every turn and twist
OF the railroads in their dealings in the freight
rate question. The work of the North Carolina
corporation Commission has been added to. and
increased since its establishment, and to its lahors
which have to do with corporations. taxes and
banking, full time is needed to be given. In this
present day there is needed special work in con.
necton with public service utilities, the railroads
the telegraph, the telephone, the express comma.
Mes the power companies and North Carolina will
prove wise II it provides for men to handle thaee
matters VINO are specially equipped for the work
ana the General Assembly should recoeniza~tho
there is an %insistent call from the peonle for s,,ch
service IN their behalf, and that there should !.
no adjournment till these matters are sett,ed
iisnt. II they are not then the contest must q
on TIL the full rights Of the people Of this or.a+
State have been achieved.

CONFUSION AMONG FINANCIERS.

New York. Oct. 31.-That part OF
New York which is referred to vague.
ly as wall street" today was in a
state of confusion. For once in its
career Wall street did not know
which way to turn. The new incom,
tax law becomes effective tomorrow
and some of the highest priced law,
yers, bankers and corporation Off
cials in the world confessed that the,
were completely at sea as to its
meaning.
AT o'clock tonight group of men
emerged from the darkened interior
OF one OF the largest banks in the
downtown district. In the group were
the president and vice presidents OF
the bank. They had just concluded
the last of series of lengthy confer
ences which have been held every
evening this week. The subject of
all thes conferences was the income
tax law.
We're swimming i'm mud" said one
OF these officers. For "a day or two
j thought | myself was coming to
know what was meant by the income
tax law, and the treasury regula p
tions concerning it. but now I'm con
vinced that | hardly know anything
about them and my fellow officers
know less
The chief source of trouble is that
portion of the law which provides for
the collection "at the source" of the
tax on incomes derived from interest
ON bonds, mortgages and certain 9TH
er obligations. Banks and corpora
tons are required To withhold this
tax In making payments of interest
due To holders of securities. More
than $4,000. 900 IL due tomorrow in

AUTO PlUMGES INTO RIVER,
PARTY OF FOUR HAVE NARROW
ESCAPE FROM DEATH.
Young People from Mullins and Mich
OILS Trappcr I'm Car When IL Falls
From Bridge into Pee Dee River.

Mullins, Oct. 31.-A serious acci-
dent in which the lives OF four young
people came near being lost occurred
last night about IL o'clock when an
automobile party composed of two
young men and two young women
plunged into Pee Dee River. While
crossing the new bridge across the
Pee Dee between Mullins and Nichols,
the machine turned bottom up, PIN
ming the four occupants beneath the
heavy car. In the automobile were
ID. G. Langston and Willis Lambert
of Mullins and Misses Celia Ward and
Mildred Meredith of Nichols. The
party left Mullins about 1890 o'clock
last night after attending a vaudeville
performance. They were returning to
Nichols via the new automobile high
wsy.
Driving about / 5 miles an hour they
had about crossed the bridge when
the steering gear of the machine
chine took lunge over the bridge
knocking off about so feet of the side
railing. The machine made a COM
plete somersault through a space OF
about eight feet and fell into about
seven feet of water carrying the four
occupants to the bottom of the river.
Members Of the party would have
been drowned but for the fact that
the top of the automobile was raised.
This helped to some extent to hold up
the weight of the machine, which is
about $500 pounds Mr.. Langston
who was driving the car, experienced
much difficulty in releasing himself
from the position at the steering
wheel and stated that ne had given
up to drown but after few seconds
he managed to get from beneath the
wheel. The young women had a
close call, neither of them being able
to swim, and 1t was with much diff.
Guilty that they were pulled from un-
der the machine.
Miss Ward Jared the worse and
came near strangling to death. Mr.
Langston was bruised about the
shoulders and chest where the steer
ing wheel caught him with violent
force.
The party secured a conveyance and
resumed the trip to Nichols, leaving
the machine In the river.
Early this morning a man passed
over the bridge and noted several
boards and the rails missing and could
see a wheel of the roachine in the
water. AS soon as this was reported
here searching parties were about t.
be formed to go down to look for the
possible victims. Two automobiles had
already left town but when the S.26
train arrived here the two young men
who had been In the accident came in,
having taken the train at Nichols.
There was general relief when it was
learned that no fatalities occurred.
