ment March II, 1922 and can then
retire upon a pension for life OF
$3.50. Within two years after he
became a judge, his salary was in
creased $500. Two years later II
was increased $3.50 more. In 1903
ii was increased by 500 for every
special term of court held. In 1911
il was increased from $3,250 to
$4,000. In 1919 1t was increased to
s4.50O. In 1921 1t was increased to
SIS, 900 with $1,000 allowance for ex-
penses.
And now because the Legislature
in order to secure money to pay the
salaries of judges and the other ex-
penses of State administration, i'm
poses an income tax not exceeding
$50 a year on all judges and all
others who receive like income,
Judge Long makes the mistake Oh

an absurd and indefensible construc-
ton of the constitution to exempt
all judicial officers from their fair

THE ABSURD POSITION OF
JUDGE LONG SHOWN UP
Has Been Receiving Increase Of Sal
ary for Many Years But Can't
Stand Small Income Tax

(From the News & Observer.)
II there is any one thing Ameri-
cans abhor 1t is the idea Of a privi-
legged class in America This repub-
lie was born in revolt against privi-
lege. This is peculiarly true OF
North Carolina. This ingrained
principle must be respected even
by the judiciary. Even II depending
upon an acient technical precedent.
North Carolina judges could secure
exemption from the payment OF the
income tax, a decent respect for
the opinion of their constituents
ought to cause them to refuse an
exemption repugnant to all sense oil
equity and justice.
Let us take the care OF Judge
Long, who has invoked the ancient
technicality. He became Judge In
January, 1908.
The following change in salary
apply to his several terms of office
19O1-Salary fixed at $4,000 per
year.
19O5-Salary raised from S2,5OO
to $4,000. Paid own expenses.
19O7-Salary raised from $4,000
$3.50.
19O9-Special compensation ol
800 per week for extra terms.
19l1-Salary raised from S3,25C
to $4,000, addition for expenses.

scouting Defendants by srlitting and

County or Defendants.
Officers, Witnesses and Taxpayers,
are you getting a square deal! You
can readily see that the Solicitors are
getting entirely too much, when you
consider the small amount Of time
they are giving to the service OF the
District; and at the same time most
of it comes out Of the pockets OF the
Taxpayers. Everything is on the de-
cline and there is no reason why sal
aries should not decrease, especially
those that have been placed on the
mountain peaks. l have been advo-
eating decreased salaries, economy
and less taxes for sometime, and
am willing to start the ball to rolling
by accepting my part Of the decrease,
and take the initiative.
II | am elected Solicitor OF this
District / promise you and hereby
pledge myself; that / will petition the
Legislature to put the Solicitors on
the same basis as the Sheriffs, Clerks

the costs or if preferable adopt the
pre-war fee bill. If the Legislature

Difference Between an Indian
and a Good Farmer

When I asked Luther Burbank
how much land is really necessary
for the average farmer to use' ne
replied:
"A thousand acres for an Indian,
hundred acres for farmer. ten
acres for an orchardist, one acre Tor
a good market gardner, half an acre
for flower or seed man, and for an
experimenter like myself. a grave
yard will do"
In the scientific and intensive use
of the soil, we have not touched the
hem of the garment Of this country
as yet. We have run to broad acres
of speculation, 10 machinery and
hired men. We are just now at the
dawn of a new and infinitely finer
day. Not broad acres but little lands;
net speculation but home building;
not the grudging labor OF hirelings;
but the loving labor of selfemploying
proprietors--these are the signs and
tokens OF a new day. OF that day

yond anything we have realized here

cases where the Defendants are let

OF misdemeanors the Defendants are

The Wizard Also Says He is Still
Working With "Hot Irons" and o
He Likes Henry Ford

Thomas A. Edison, inventor and
electrical wizard, has just fifteen
years more of service for humanity in
him.
This was perhaps the most import
ant statement he made in his annual
interview with newspaper men at
West Orange, N. j.. on the occasion
OF his seventy fifth birthday.
Volley Of Questions
Smilingly facing little army of
reporters and news and movie pho
tographers who waylaid him on his
way from his home TO his laboratory
he answered yolley after volley oil
questions on every subject the re-
porters could think Of.
IL hope you will have several
more birthdays" said one of the re-
porters as they we're leaving.
II shall have fifteen MORE" said
Mr.. Edison simply. He did not
elaborate on the process by which
he arrived at this conclusion.

that he was not ready to talk about
them as none Of them were complet-
ed.

Roosevelt at the head Of list OF
great men he had met-although ne
said he had met the former Presi-
dent but once.
II liked Teddy" he said warmly.
He picked Sarah Bernhardt as The

"still full OF pepper"
