A, Reduction Of Tne Tax On
Marriage. ;
The jAdvance was the first
paper1 in North Carolina to de
mand the reduction of the tax
on the marriage license. Un
aided a'nd single-handed for
many ! months , we labored to
educate the public mind up
to the necessity of removing
all barriers against marriages.

sides for their money, and when
farmers are . making arrange

enjoys over the prevalent "pay

- No country or; people have
prospered under the credit sys
tem, and many j sections and
many people .have been unable
to make progress because this
barrio! has stood in the way.
The evils of the credit system
are patent. In -our section
Jhe cotton producing counties
everyone is familiar with the
bad effects of j this, system
which has so long hung as
a black cloud over our pro
gress and prosperity. The
plan of buying supplies to be
paid for when j the . crop U3
made cannot work satisfacto
rily. It car not make the farm
ers independent. It necessi
tates a stringency in money
markets, and leatfa to .failure,

cases, to downright dishon

The Advance, once knew a
poor man, as honest as ..any
man, who to make a crop was
compelled te give a mortgage.
His crop was a i failure He
could not pay the moftgagei
The merchant to whom he was
indebted could !not afford to
give him further indulgence,
and the mortgage was,': fore
closed. The mortgaged prop
erty 'was sold, J but did not
bring more than half enough
to satisfy the debt. The iner-
chant lost a part of his ac
count and believed the poor
i man dishonest. ' The man had
nothing, saw no chance to pay
the debt in full, and saw no
prospect of bettering his con
dition. The result was Tin this
. case, as in many others, that
both the merchant aad ' the
farmer lost. Each thought the
other had acted, badly and a
permanent estrangement was
produced. I '

take his fishing pole and tiu can of
worms and go to the nearest
stream and - catch enough fish for
supper and breakfast. Tbere was
no pleasure he prized more highly
than the sport of catching the fish
and there was no food so appetiz

But times' have changed. N
more can the houest, hard-working
farmer take his book and line and
catch a "mess" of good fish. The
only people who get the fisli now
are those who use seines and hand
nets, and make fishing a business.
These things ought not so to be."
We ought to go back to the old
landmarks. The Legislature can
iiasa no law which will benefit the
