THINK In OVER

In another column OF this issue is
an article from Aryid Bjork, superin-
tendent OF the Bristol mine In which
he takes exceptions 10 arguments in
articles dealing with local taxation
which have been published in these
columns We wish every reader 10
read Mr. Bjork's article carefully and
give Il the credit that Il merits. IL is
but fair that all sides be considered
in this matter and Mr. Biork is taking
the right method of getting his case
before the people.
II too frequently happens In this
mining country where SO many resi-
dents Of a community are dependent
upon one industry and their Jobs de-
pend upon the word OF one man, that
mining superintendent or mill
superintendent takes the attitude Of
Little Tin God" whose word no man
must question and at whose mandate
all knees must bow The penalty Of
refusing Is 10 incur the personal en-
nifty OF the said superintendent and be
excluded from the altar 90 favor; be a
subject OF rcproach be branded as a
socialist The time has arrived when
this "one man rule" is pretty well
dissolved IL Is still maintained i'm
some localities but as general thing
the right Of an American citizen to
his personal opinions Is being recog-
nized
The trouble is that most OF us are
not biz enough in public matters The
mere fact that a man may mine iron
ore cheaply or run" newspaper
successfully Is not a sign of bigncss
one must be broad OF mind az well as
broad Of professional ability. There
y a growing feeling among men Of
AFFAIRS towards recognizing the worth

OF public approval and. while Il hasn't
struck all our mining companies yet,
IL will IN time, and superintendent
will be chosen because OF their broad
ness of mind as well as for their
ability to mine ore.
Mr. Bjork as pleader for the rights
OF the property he looks after has the
same right OF public attention as has
the editor of this paper in his plea for
local property. The fact that each has
undertaken the work which Is pro-
perry his Is no reason that either
should be personally non gratis either
10 the mining interests or 10 the local
people. This tax matter Is simply a
matter of business and our money is
just as precious to rs as Is that OF the
Bristol Mining company 10 them
What we ask OF our readers and OF
the mining companies also Is that
they approach this tax controversy,
not from selfish or a prejudiced
standpoint, but from a plane OF JUS
tice. The arguments that Mr.. Bjork
puts forth should be weighed against
those of the opposition and an opinion
formed from the preponderance Of
argument only.
In due time we shall take cognizance
OF the article and answer it as best we
can But. what we wish TO impress Is
that because Mr. Bjork and the writer
have taken opposite positions on this
public question. there is no private
malice on the part OF either. We might
add that others in positions similar 10
Mr.. Bjork might well take leaf
from his notebook and give TO those
who oppose them openly and, to our
point OF view, Justly, immunity from
personal enmity.

We understand that this pro-
position will be 80 modified that
one half Of the cost of the entire
road will be paid by the town OF
Roanoke Rapids and the other
half will be raised by private
subscriptions from the rest OF
the community. Although this
latter proposition will not dis
tribute the cost of this road SO
equitably as if the entire road
were laid out Of the public road
funds, it is the fairest pro-
position that has been made and
it is probably the fairest the
town can obtain.
The present cemetery road is
disgraceful and some step should
be decided upon Immediately
which will insure at least a de-
cent approach to the cemetery
before another winter sets in.
