NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
THE BEER BILL

| The beer bill that passed the house is in many
respects illogical 1t attempts by legislation to
make a Misunderstanding beverage out of beer
that heretofore in ant-aleohol legislation and in
Iauor laws of the past has beer generally treated
sc Intoxicating And the fundamental reason for
declaring this beer mountaineering is not so much
the result of physiological research as tits the
fact that the federal government needs revenue
That was admitted when the maximum alcohohc
limit was raised from the proposed 275 per cent
by weight to So per cent by weight for the simple
reason that beer of the former content would not
sell in large enough quantities to produce revenue
Furthermore, the beer bill has been passed in the
face of party pledges against the return of the
saloon. AS passed, the beer bill permits even in
vites the return of the saloon. For, if and when
the states attempt regulate the sale of beer be-
cause of its Intoxicating qualities they will be at
tempting to regulate the sale of beverage that
has been declared Notwithstanding in fact.
Until few weeks ago the statement that "every-
body is opposed to the saloon would go unchal-
lenged. The most ardent of vets themselves sought
designation as the truest friends of temperance
and sobriety, anxious at all costs to prevent the
return of the saloon. Yet the house leadership has
not permitted single vote to test the sentiment
OPPoSSu
to sentiment in favor of beer and in favor of the
saloon ~
The original proposal by the Democrats to
amend the Volstead Act was never expressed in the
concrete terms of the beer bill Light beer was up
to a short time ago, spoken of as 2.75 per cent
beer. Now light beer in the beer bill, is the beer
of pre-prohibtion days. The bill would become eff
fective thirty days after its signature by the presi-
dent. That would obviously permit the states little,
if any, time to set up the machinery necessary to
control this new flood of beverage declared non
Intoxicating by the federal congress. Where is the
fulfment of the party pledge of the Democrats to
urge the enactment of such measures by the sew
eral states as will actually promote temperance,
effectively prevent the return of the saloon and
bring the liquor traffic into the open under COM
plete supervision and control of the states? Is that
pledge 70 be repudiated?
flood of per cent legalized beer will not ruin
the country. it will not fill the cutters with drunk
men. But it will denote deplorable failure, by
responsible legislators, to conceive the liquor prob
lem as one that still requires careful and mature
consideration. Washington Star.

SAVE THE RAILROADS

Few statements that have been made at Raleigh
since the legislature convened have attracted more
attention or have been more calculated to give
pause to our legislators and others than the sug-
gestion during the recent hearing on proposed adj
ditional taxes railroads that if conditions don't
improve for these public carriers, the government
will be compelled to take them over. This hearing
had followed Immediately upon the announcement
by the Southern railroad that it would not be able
to meet its tax payments this year when they came
due on February l and that it would have to pay
later and accept the penalty ,., g.
1t developed in the hearing that the Norfolk
Southern had not been able to meet payments on
its lease from the state on its lines in eastern Caro-
lima, that it did not pay its franchise tax last Oc-
ober and that it is not in position to pay its prop
erty taxes due at the present time. The Seaboard
is in receivershp and the Atlantic Coast Line is in
a distressed situation, too 1t was also stated at
the hearing that the railroads, even under such
conditions as obtained during 1892, paid in taxes
in North Carolina, not including federal taxes more
than $4,000 per day, or more than $5945, 900 for
the year..
Here is the startling thought. If government
ownership of railroads comes through force of cir
! cumstances, who is going to pay the sizeable pro-
portion of taxes that are now being paid to state
and local government by the railroads? No ono
wants government ownership of railroads Our ex
perienee during the war, when government opera

who speak of government ownership of the power
utilities and coal mines. The utilities particularly
rank with the railroads taxpayers. Who will pa,
that proportion of taxes that they pay when w
have government ownership of utilities?
! No! The American people don't want government
ownership of any business. And the more they
realize what it would mean the more determined
they are going to be to fight shy of it.-Charlotte

FOUR CENTURIES OF ROMANCE
- (By BRUCE CATTON)


OOfbe birthday anniversary of a city sell
dom means very much. But there are a
few cities which occupy special places in
hfstofy-M.c:ities which came into existence
iksdreaps born of bloodshed and wonder
and desire-and when one of these passes
a new milestone the event is worth looking
at.
YdGfYfght be interested to know, there
fore that the city of Cartagena, in Colon
bia, recently celebrated its 400th birthday.
It-Ras born in 1888, when there were
still Giving men who had sailed with Co
lumbus, when Cortez's daring raid on the
emnieeef the Aztecs was still being talked
abos@s Pizarro's raid on the Inca empire
was still in progress. A new world was be-
ias-epened, an age of gold was dawning,
Ell Dorado was a reality which might lie
just beyond the town.
So Cartagena was bound to be city
whose air would be hazy with romance, a
city around which legends and dreams
would cluster.
1t became the chief port for the Spanish
conquistadors. Twice year it sent great
fleet of 5lunt-nosed, top-heavy galleons off
to Spain, with breath-taking quantities of
gold slowed below decks, painted sails bel
lying out from the creaking yards, per-
fumed and hard-mouthed grandees at ease
in the draped cabins on the high poops.
Pirates knew Cartagena, and soldiers
and gold-hunters, and explorers-all the
lustiest spirits of one Of earth'S lustiest Pc
RODS Francis Drake sacked the place
held it for a time against long odds, sailed
away with vast riches. The French fol.
lowed him, later on, and did likewise; les,
ser sea=rovers Numbered against the sea
walls of the port, some of them were
caught and hanged in chains, some of then
landed in the prison cells of the great for
tress and died slowly, in the dark.
The fortress had walls 30 feet high anc
so feet thick. Six hundred thousand slaves
are saidto have been used to build it thou
sandssT them died before the Job wa,
done, and something like $80,OOO,0OO wa
spent On, it. ..
And it is that Cartagena which has jus
reached its 400th anniversary Can an,
man With feeling of romance be indiffer
ent to the occasion?

that this movement may not sue
coed any better than it did in 1881
and that the new MacLean eight
months school bill may in reality
prove nothing more than a school
measure rather than a bill to reli-
eve corporate property. For there
is already a feeling among the
members of the general assembly
from the non-industrial counties
and sections that if a sales tax is
imposed it must be for the support
of the schools and nothing else.
The sentiment among these Is also
growing that the present tax sche-
dulles on corporate operty
must not be reduced, but if any
thing increased in order to recap
ture a part of the tax reduction
resulting from the removal of so
much property taxes. So an in
teresting contest is in prospect.

Hoover's message TO Congress
indicated that he was having no inn
portant changes of heart. Wheth-
er or not he hopes to be a candi-
date in 1896, neither precedent
nor inclination would lead him
into any extensive backtracking at
this time.
He had a long-standing reputa-
ton as dry and during the CAM
paign at no time indicated any
sympathy for beer. He has chosen
the sales tax as a better revenue
raising method. He has sworn q
holy war against the saloon,
which would not be avoided by
the Democratic beer bill. And he
is believed to question the consti-
nationality of beer OF the alcoholic
content proposed.
So you don't have to accuse
Hoover Of obstruction and OF seek
ing to force an extra session on
Roosevelt in order to explain his
anticipated beer veto. No one now
thinks a special session can be
avoided anyway.

Democrats presumably will en-
body in the bill as their, farm re-
lief program. Hoover was We
