A fond father whose youngest child
attempted to blow himself up in .
fireworks celebration has just settled
a peculiar claim for damages.
The child's clothes caught fire in the
street and he was saved from serious
Injury by the nimble wit Of Q man
who soused him into q convenient bar
rel Of liquid.
A week later the father got . bill
for $20, which represented the cost
of the barrel Of ruined lemonade into
which the youngster had been
plunged. The father was willing to
pay several times $40 for the preser-
walton OF his son, but to place that
valuation on barrel Of street lemon
ade struck him as a bit Of uncon-
scious but delightful satire

Washington, Oct. 14.-President vii
son and the entire Cabinet today dis
cussed the Mexican situation, and the
United States naval policy. This was
the first Cabinet meeting since June.
The dispatch of German naval ves-
sci to the Mexican waters and the pos
sibility that other European powers
might do the same thing, commanded
first attention. Germany's action is
construed as the direct result OF the
deputies arrest and fear that an
archy might follow.

tleship program this year, and two bat
tleships hereafter.

In the meantime, the Corpora

negotiations between the State

poets, it is said, of reaching an
agreement. So long as there's
life, there's hope, and Governor
Craig is taking the proper course
by deferring the call for an extra
session of the General Assembly
until every other recourse has
been exhausted. A second con-
ference between the Commission
and the railroads is scheduled for
next week in Old Point Comfort,
Va, and inside information is to
the effect that concessions to the

of this meeting will be awaited

that does not get the property on

in point:
prior to 1897, intangible pro-
perry in Maryland was taxed un-
der a uniform ad valorem law. The
rate, under this rule, in the city of
Baltimore, was 81 on the hundred
dollars worth of property. Under
this rule there was listed for taxa
ton six millions of intangible Sc
curities. The rule was changed
and a fat rate of 30 cents on the
enc hundred dollars was imposed
on property of this class, and the
next year the amount listed jump
ed from six million dollars to fifty
five millions. Since then it has
steadily climbed, untiTnoW, in the
city Of Baltimore alone, there is
listed four hundred and fifty mil

ties. Under a uniform rule, with

Fl RATE SITUATION.

The question of freight rate dis
elimination continues to be a live
subject in North Carolina and the
agitation has reached the danger
point for the States industries,
under conditions now existing.
The impression has gone forth that
the wholesale merchant cannot
operate in this State with any de-
gree of satisfaction so long as the
present schedule of discriminatory
freight rates are effective that
manufacturers are heavy losers on
q similar account which, also,
frightens away millions of timid
cal ital every year. Doubtless,
some of the stories bearing upon
the North Carolina situation have
been exaggerated. That is Meth
er here, nor there. Tt is a condi-
ton and not a theory that con
fronts the people of this common
wealth. Whether, or not, the pic
ture has been overdrawn, the eff
feet is admittedly harmful and a
remedy must be provided in some
way. If the railroads persist in
their present course, the State and
her citizens should seek redress
through every possible avenue
open to them. Talk is cheap, but it
frequently brings on trouble. The
North Carolina shippers have been
indulging in a great amount Of
noise which is bound to prove hurt
full to the States interests, in the
absence Of an effective remedy.
Momentous questions should not
be brushed aside by a mere wave
cf the hand, or a conglomeration
of Understanding words. Evils are
corrected only by diligence and de-
termination.
The Just Freight Rates Associa-
ton, recently organized, is gath
ering force for action later on and
Will most likely prove an import
ant factor in the adjustment of
differences between the State and
the public service corporations be-
fore a great while. An aroused
public sentiment is evidently the
first step towards a solution, in
the opinion of the association, as
the picture it presents of prevail
ing conditions is by no means a
rosy one. The work Of organiza-
ton is being prosecuted with a
Epidity and determination, county
by county, and the sentiment for a
radical revision of existing rates
will soon permeate every section
of the State. The local associa-
tons Of a number of counties have
adopted resolutions importuning
Governor Craig to convene the
General Assembly in special ses
sion for the purpose of dealing
with the freight rate situation and
the Governor has intimated his in
tention Of taking that course. But
the inability Of the State to regu-
late interstate rates is recognized
and any action the Legislature
might take in the matter Of intra-
state rates would be subject to re-
view by the courts. Such a course
would necessarily entail an enorln-
Gus expense tothe State and furth-
er delay in a redress of the griev-
