NV 4 a. RASk ER WILL

Raleigh, April Ex-Governor j. c.
B. Ehringhaus is delighted at the re-
sponae and reaction to HIS latest
radio speech in which he further out
lined the reasons for his opposition
to calling a special session to deal
with tobacco control legislation and a
State compacts law, he said today.
Many kilograms, telephone calls and
letters have been received from to-
bacco farmers and others commend
ing his position and stating that
since they have had the facts pre-
sented to them they are now in com
plete agreement with him that a spe-
cial session could not enact any sort
of law that would have any effect on
the 1896 tobacco crop, the governor
said.

TODAY'S YESTERDAYS

April 30, 17S9-The first President
was In fact what nearly every sue
cessor has been maliciously accused of
being-a Wall Street President. Mr..
Washington stood upon a balcony at
Wall and Nassau, clad in plain, dark
brown suit with knee breeches and
white silk stockings, as he took the
oath of office from Robert r. Liv-
ingston, chancellor of New York
State.
April 80. 179S-The Navy depart
ment was established. Benjamin
Stoddart of Maryland, the first Sec
rotary, was a cavalry officer!
April 80, 1803-The aforemention-
ed r. r. Livingston, who had been
sent to Paris to buy the city of New
Orleans and obtain control of the
mouth of the Mississippi, bought with
out authority the entire Louisiana
territory, comprising all or part of
Is present day States. All or nothing.
said Barbe Marbois, acting for Bona
parte, SO all it was; Mons. Marbois
thought he made an excellent deal in
unloading lot of wilderness and saw
ages on Livingstone for 81 million
dollars.
April 3d. 19OO-At p. m. on a
Monday morning, locomotive No. 63S
of the Illinois Central r. r. was
rolling toward Vaughan, Miss, pull
ing the Cannonball Express, and "All
the switchmen knew by the engines
means that the man at the throttle
was Casey Jones'" A freight train
didn't pull into siding fast enough,
and No. 638 hit the rear end of it at
so miles per hour.
Thus died John Luther Jones. And
thus was born one of the best known
American folk-songs, Casey Jones'"

session and nothing but a special ses-

to realize that the legislature could
not do one thing to help them If it
were meeting here right now" Cover
nor Ehringhaus said. Most of them
had never read the Virginia compact
law, the new Federal law nor the
South Carolina law. But now that
they have heard me explain all these
laws, they realize that it would be
impossible to enact any law in North
Carolina that would apply to any 9TH
err state than North Carolina, and
that Virginia, South Carolina and
Georgia could go ahead and plant and
market all the tobacco they want this
year and no one could do anything
about it,"
In addition to the amendment to
the South Carolina compact law
which provides that it shall not be-
come effective until Georgia takes
legislative action to reduce it's tobac-
CO acreage, two other amendments
were added to it which would pre-
vent 1t from becoming effective dur
ing 1885, Governor Ehringhaus point
ed out today. One of these is an
amendment which would make it in
operative on any crop already plant
ed before the bill is enacted-and it
mas not yet been enacted, although
most of the South Carolina tobacco
crop has already been set out. The
other amendment provides that it
shall not become effective on farmers
producing less than 2,400 pounds of
tobacco a year. So in all there are
three amendments to the South Caro-
INA compact bill which render it use
less In trying to control the 1886 crop.

THE MONKEY AND
THE CHESTNUTS
Dear Mr.. Editor Taylor:

| Dear Mr.. EQ1COr Taylor:
In principle, the operation of the
Miles City Tannery is the same as
exemplified in our state insurance
law. The principle is that the
people are not to be taxed to pay
needless profits, especially profits
established and bolstered up by
monOpolistic methods.
The public property within the
state, buildings and contents, is
worth about $5O,OOO,OOO. About
three thousand separate general
funds, each under the charge of
it's respective board, are liable to
repair loss or damage from fire
or other natural perils. The state
law provides nothing more than
an adjustment by mutual response
bility among these many funds.
1t cannot possible cause expense
or fail in it's purpose.
The opposition to this law by
the agents of the absentee insur-
ance corporations, is beyond all
confluence. Their board of under
writer's establishes a monopoly by
fixing rates, apparently from five
to twenty times what the insur-
ance is worth. This imposition is
maintained and upheld by many
curious laws which have been
forced through our legislature by
the insurance lobby, or paid them
IN the manner of value received nv
the various mOnopolistic interests
and special privileges which they
In turn have favored and upheld.
The same principle is involved in
the operation at Miles CITY and
the various other operations thru
out the state in which unemployed
workers were permitted to pro-
duce articles for their own needs.
Political agents working through
relief channels have in the main
succeeded in stamping out these
activities, to give the dog a bad
name before hanging him. They
say they call it Utopian, or EPIC.
This is not true. If there is a
in the appearance it is
HOT III the substance.
The principle is that the state
has no business to take money
from the ragged pocket of the tax
payer to pay needless profits, es- !
oecially profits which are enhanced /
oy monopoly and political con-
'plracy and fraud. Taxes are paid |
~ the poor, by the relief client
md the worker, and substantially
n proportion and to the amount
lie consumes. For forty years We
lave tried to find some way to fix
hem higher up in the social pyra-
MD and make them stay there.
he facts teach us that it cannot
re done. They run down to the
'ottom by the natural forces of

mango; and those at the bottom
