TO STUDY THE TARIFF.

The visit to Richmond of Mr.. Guy
Emerson Of the Tariff Commission
League for conferences with editors.
officials, and other leaders of thought
in the community Is important. He
arouse interest throughout the coun-
try In the creation OF commission
of seven men of recognized strength
and ability to study the tariff aues-
ton and aid Congress In It's impor-
tanr and difficult work In framing the
best tariff legislation possible
The tariff is one Of the most i'm
portant, and at the same time one OF
The most intricate subjects, with which
Congress has to deal It is a subject
In which all American citizens have
an interest and about which very few
know much. While the plans OF the
Tariff Commission League are In q
formative state as vet. the serious con-
sideratiea ct this subject by unselash
and public spirited men of character
and ability must help in the solution
of many OF the problems which Con-
gress has TO solve or attempt to solve
in the enactment of the tariff legts-
lation.
Members of the league realize that
very much Of the success to be
achieved depends upon the selection
of the right men for the commission
If tsle sentiment of the country shall
respond with such general interest as
TO insure such a commission.

Der II was the substance of a notice
posted at the mill today by 3. f.
Geer president and treasurer. Several
weeks ago delegates of the United Tex

local here and recently the manaa ge-
trent discovered It's presence. Seven

II was because they Joined the union.
Some eighty employees Of the weave
room walked out because the men
were not reinstated.
Sunday night meeting was held AMI
some 400 of the employees joined and
refused to go back to work today.
The mill was ptcketed and other en-
ployes were persuaded not to return
to work, many staying from the mills.
Employees have been walking out

IT Is understood that other mills

ITALIAN JUSTICE. I"

Those who have followed the case
Of Porter Charlton. the young Ameri-
lean accused Of killing his wife with
a nallet and throwing her body into
Lake Como, long ago became firmly
justice. and now after the conviction,
with the verdict of only six years and
five months, they will be OF the opin-
ion that it is as inefficient as 1t Is
slow. and demonstrates some lido
syncrasies that could not occur in
American judicial procedure. as faulty
as it is.
Charlton has been found guilty. 1t
seems, of "wounding Mary Scott
Charlton under great provocation"
She is dead--the corpus deficit was
introduced as evidence years ago
and that being fact. it was a plain
case OF foul murder under the law,
the only question at issue being
whether Porter Charlton, or some
body else, was responsible for 1t. The
American authorities evidently be-
Ilieved there was probable cause or
they would not have turned Charlton
over to the italian courts for pun
returns a verdict with string to 1t,
practically amounting TO an acauit-
more than five years In Jail. and with
the allowance granted by royal decree

IN 1915. In other words, the volume
Of assessed values showed such in
crease that. although the rate was
reduced nearly 40 per cent, the cash
returns were not materially affected.
All of which shows that Richmond
is measuring up to it's duties and re-
sponsihilities under the tax laws OF
tho Commonwealth. and that 1t may
very riEhteously demand that the tax

flagman, narrowly escaped with his
life in a most utusual accident. The
young man was 1t his work on top OF
a coal car which was being shifted,
when. in some way, while the train
was moving at a fair rate of speed
the bumper doors under the bottom
of the car become unlocked or broke
and the carload of coal was precipitat-
ed under the train. Through the small
hole made by the v-shape in the re-
lease of the floor the young man was
thrown with great force to the ground
without wheel striking him or being
mangled in any way by being dragged
by the train.
Gregory was hustled to the Rocky
Mount Sanitorium where careful
examination disclosed severe bruises
over his entire body, while his great
est injury was in having his left
shoulder crushed. While he will never
again have normal use of his left arm,
