ItiimoriHl In Internal lleciiei Circles That the Republican "Orjraola lion' Want etrt-rii Revenue Dis trict Mergnl Willi Uaetrrn. BptTlnt to Tho Observer. Ashevllle, Nov. 25. From .a poli tician who has the opportunity to observe things from a point of great vantage It In learned that a whole lot of electricity pervades the atmos phero In which those attached to the revenue service move and have be ing. In this atmosphere, It la said, there frequently floats the rumor that th Fifth, or western North Carolina district la to be fabollshed and that all the revenue business of tho Hlnle Is to be transacted at Raleigh with Mr. Duncan as collector. Those of tho Butler camp are de clared to favor this step for a variety of reasons. A man favorable to Hluck burn was made collector and the Hutler people would rather aee the otAce abolished, and combined with the Kastarn district, which Is said to be favored by soma of the of ficials of the Internal revenue depart ment at Washington, If they cannot control tho appointments. With Duncan aa tho sole collector and chief patronage dispenser in tho State, there wo)ld be established the close political proporatlon which Is so highly doslrable. There would then be an absolutely centralxed form of O. O. I, government, for under this Ideal arrangement, Butler and Duncan would hie In absolute command. The Kast would then control the wholo Htate without a dis senting voice S per cent, of I Republicans or the west, and pur Tlie sHHiirlal idii i tlcularly those f this section, where. under normal conditions, tnere is a Republican party, ore to be punched for going Into the Htate convention of the Htate convention of the Htate Hirii'lnat the. Rutler band of patronage i dispensers, who won out at tJreens- j ""o by manipulating the delegates from the solidly Democratic east. II hss been fr-uently asserted that something will drop in revenue clr- I ''les within the next 0 days, and 1 many believe that when the drop , conies it win moan in. consolidation of the two revenue districts with a itutler man at the helm. It la be- , lieveu tins proifrumme win lie currlmi out unless the President makes a too close examination of the returns from the Slates at the last election, and Is set to thinking by th. fall-down of tho Butler crowd. KltltOVKOVKLV ltKIORTKD VV. An Two Peraons, In Whom Cornelius Is lnUrestrd. Incorrectly lUaporte as lM'iMl llirw flic Report tlalnod t'lirrewy Municipal Improve ments In a I'rogrcwftlve Tow n. Hpeclul to The Observer. Cornelius, Nov. SR. An erroneous report of the death of Mrs. J. V. Kodgers, of near Mooresvllle, who Is a sister to Mrs. Noah Winecoff, of this place, hns been corrected, greatly to the relief of mnny friends here. The report gained clrctilutlon on ue- , count or ine oeatn or Mr. j. v i liodgers' mother, wiio lived In the I same community and also necnuso of the poor health of Mrs. Itodgers ' and her absence from home for tned . tcul treatment. She has been at t'or r,ir I neiitis with her sister, Mrs. Wlno ! coff and under tho medical attend ance of Dr. B. I. Hmlth, and re turned to her home much Improved on the day the 4uls report of her death was circulated. Mr. Donald Murchison, a young nun formerly of Cornelius, who hus moved to Ashevllle and engaged in railroading, is reported to have been killed In a recent railroad accident. To dale this has not been substan tiated by any communication with the young man's family, who reside In Louisville, Ky and It is greatly hoped that this may also prove to bo an error. It was only recently that of false report of , the death of Mr. Chartle'Murchtson and brother, was corrected through correspondence with his fatbor. The local cunip Of Daughters of Liberty gave a reception In their hall Friday night. Besides addresses by liev. Mr. Muff and Mr. John Hosa man, ther was - vocal and instru mental music, fruits end .sweets to suit the taste of all and -a very en Joy h tile iMOBMlon In every, particular.

' . , neotion, loo, bo took shara Isauo with IC. H. Karriman. who. In a' reeent address delivered tn Chicago, declared inai ,i cno united - States 'now - has enougo railroad lles. Ho Indicated that there might bo enough lines now for th purposes of .Mr. Harrlman, but there are not enouah to meet tho necessities of the people," i "Mr, Harriman'a Matemant -was 111. advised and' untrue," continued :,tho commissioner. "In the making of such a declaration, ho haant a leg to stand on. In tho last seven years tho volume of the freight traffic of mia country has doubled and It Is extremely likely that It will double again In the next ten years. The rail roads in the United States today I are absolutely unable to handle the country's commerce with any degree Of promptness and satisfaction. This fact Is disclosed by the official figures or tno railroad companies themselves. What does Mr.. Harrlman propose to aa ' with the increased traffic of ten years hence? , i .f. 'It Is an undoubted fact that every railroad center tn the country is now I so seriously congested witn freight that cannot be handled expeditiously that shippers are experiencing the uul most aimruiiy in 'getting tneir fooat tn marxei. a part or this difficulty is due to Inefficiency in tho handling or uie nuKiness, but, to a much greater extent, it is due to the Dhyst cal Impossibility to forward the freight over tho lines. This is ei barrasslng to tho commercial Interests of the country. Just a day or two ago 1 received a letter from a great business house in New York. In which the statement was made that . ship incuts of goods made to some of their patrons In Florida last Juno had just been delivered by the rail road companies. That is an Impossi ble condition or transportation af fair. Men-cannot do Jbuslness In that way successfully. The firm simply called my attention to the matter without making a complaint. In fact, I do not know that we could do anything effective about it. It Is Illustrative of a situation, how ever, that the railroad companies must work out In the Interest of tho people and In their .own in teres. ' Efforts made by many big rail roads to carry a heavy passenger and freight traffic over a single line of railway frequently result In serl ous congestions of both traffics. What Is still more serious, they reult often In ugly wrecks In which lives' and property are needlessly Mcrlflced. To this phase of the problem, double tcacking of alt lines Is the solution. During the last year nearly 10,000 were killed and about 80,000 In jured on American railroads. These accidents, for the greater port, were traceable directly to the frantic ef forts to carry a business over the lines that the lines, physically, were Inadequate to carry. "In my opinion, this country, with no greater volume of commerce thsn It has at preVt, could wJJ rapport XOO.000 miles of railroad. Now fi ave something aver 300.000 miles, The construction of additional rail road lines along well selected routes would bo of onerous advantage to the country and would ksslst ma terially In developing valuable terri tory that Is now without aaeguate transportation facilities.

To the Kdltor of The Observer, The memorial exercises In, honor of Dr. Chus. I).

He al- so made a very beautirul talk, norm Carolina can well be proud of two aUch sons. It was touching to hear Lr. Winston's pralso of his own pro duction, for Dr. Mclver once told a frend 'ne "owed more to Dr. Winston, than any other tescher, 1 ever had." Another name Is added to tho list of our university men, whose lives and teachings have not been .spent In vain. "Wiiose works do folow them." Who shall be the one to continue Dr. Mclvers great work? Ills friend and associate, Mr. J. Y. Joyner, haa declined to accept the great responsi bility. One can but admire him, however, for not foraaklng tho work he 'nas so ably carrlod on. aa super Intondent of public Instruction In North Carolina.
