Now, there Is to be no discrimination Deiween cur Trojans an! Trrians. The euperi ority of Xorth Carolina poetn over the jaltry output of Virginia is unquestion able. All we want to do Is to announce that ws quit this discussion right here. We have found a new poet who swats the lvre with a tist so sure, so true, so beau iir.il thnt hnth Koith Carolina ana ir- cinii can to nans. The name of this piece is 'The Love of Midnight, and vre now ikfnw it pnure. into iuo weu, couto qui peut! ' ' "Lata In the golden afternoon. I sat on the bridge at midnight, ' An thuitrht of the Elrl 1 loved. Over the hills did the moon shine bright. . ' 4i a t taXt n tnnnned love. My heart wept, my thoughts roamed Just to thinK, I was atone, O. how I longed to be at home. "With the girl J love to roam. I sat on the bridge at midnight, . I trod the broad road alone, I walked in the lonely moonlight 0, how my thougbt's did wonder, It was only love I meant While listening to the catracs, O but my mind was not content , "'The wind blew, the catracs fell. Music from the frogs could I hear. My love and I wished to sea . . The music of frogs I could not bear. " The crucly faulsly girl I lo. ts this your love so atrange, The one-who loveshe truth indeed Should be more truthful on. . If The Observer's "smug t,tofc,l and chop-Hcking superiority Is dls agreeableto The Evening Post, no less offensive to us la its convicting The v Observer as-a guilty Jsharer in The Norfolk Landmark's "disgraceful fishwife bickerings." We have al ways conducted these discussions on a high plane of dignity and wltn the proprieties of speech, and do not thank The Evening Post for trying to drag The Observer down to the low level of The Norfolk Landmark. How. ever, In view of Its Just and discrim inating declaration that "the super iority of North Carolina poetry over the paltry output of Virginia Is un questionable," all is forgiven, and in consideration of Its Justice" we ac knowledge the merit of "Tha Love of Midnight." The style Is that of Miss Mattle Peterson, which Is high enough praise, though the song 4a not so tuneful as hers nor the sentiment so mournful; nor does it equal In coher ency that masterly quatrain: "She's the dnly girl I love; Has a face like a horse and buggy. I met her leaning on the lake, t), fireman, save mo child!" The Evening Post has done well, however, for a new entry i and we have hope of it; but 1 it Is guilty of excessive "assumacy" In supposing that it has "got us all stood," as Poet Reuben J. Holmes said Rocky River Springs had all the other -watering places. ' ' 1 . "' ''.',,.,V';V There seems to . be but one senti ment In Charlotte In regard to the deplorable affair at the city hall building, and that Is one of astonish ment and regret. There appears to be in the community no admixture of vlndictlveness or desire for blood. It does not occur to us that anything Is to bj gained by the prosecution and further humiliation of this crush ed4and broken man. He does not owe the city a cent. Since this Is the ea.e and - sine ne good-end-would be subserved by , a legal prosecution, while on the other hand additional anguish would but be Inflicted upon him and, not upon the offender alone but the Jnnocent as well, It seems to us that the (weight of the argument is agalnBt it The offence has been atoned for not only by restitution but by repntanco In bitterness and tears. o at:r.!; .

Citizens wero proud to show visitors around, to cail attention to the 53 new residences which have gone up recently and the $35,000 school building Which is al most comoleted. The latter Is indeed a fine pilo. Its auditorium would do credit to most colleges. The town has just voted bonds for water-works.

It Is not very pleasant (to say the least) to pay one half-dollar expect ing to enjoy a game of ball and whes you get a seat on the grand-stand find you have a thoughtless gentle man (?) In front and probably on either side puffing smoke during the entire game in your face, but Buch Is the case and you must endure it If you care to see the game In all prob ability go home with a horrible head- acne ana reeling m to an mankmaz Now we do not wan Mo appear self ish and deny this necessary comfort to the dear men. but why can't they havs a portion of the grand stand re served for the smokers, thereby al lowing the fans to enjoy themselves as well as they! Please pardon an other suggestion: May we not have a score board at convenient distance? eo that We can easily keep track of the gam and not make the .mistakes of "rooting" at the wrong time? "MANY PANS.".?: A TARIFF CIRCULAR. ITome Market Club, of Boston, Sends Out Circulars Asking Positions of Different People on Tariff Question. The Home Market Club, of Boston. has sent out the following circular re lating to the subject of the tariff:'. "Home Market Club, ' "Boston, May 4, 1907. Dear Sir: "The latest tariff line-up seems to be this: . - "No. 1. The Democrats, or most of them, and some Republicans favor re vision at 'the next -session of Congress. ana believe that duties should b re duced In most cases, v ! - - . . . No. 2. The Republican leaders, or most of them, think It will be better to defer revision until after the presl- aentiai election, taking it up at a, spec ial Bessionfin4he;sprlng of. 1909; and reducing or raising or keeping present duties, as conditions may require. ' Jso, 3. A good many business men. Irrespective of politics, think there Is no occasion to say- or do anything about the revision while the country Is doing well, and let action be de termined by future events.

There are only two ways by wnicn tne products of the aoutn can be carried to market by rail and by water. Each must supplement the oth er. Rail ' transportation must stop at the sea. Water transportation Is not adequate for Interior commerce, nor, by ' itself, for coastwise or foreign commerce. No community would ta a moment oppose the policy of im proving Its water transportation, yet it would be Just as logical to do eo as for it to array itself against the rail ways and to favor policies that would impair and cripple them. Railway ex tension and improvement should be supported by public sentiment Just as is the improvement of waterways. Otherwise, it will be impossible for the railways to keep pace with the con stantly growing demands for trans portation. To keep pace with these demands In the South, wilt ' require the expenditure of 'many-millions" of dollars In the immediate future. This money can be -obtained only if the credit of the companies can be ptv served.

TEST OF SINCERITY. , After speakin of the identity of the Interests , of a railway with those ot the public along Its Unos, Mr. Flnley said: "In the efforts I have been mak ing to bring about a better under standing between the peopl and the railroads, I have ! been met In some quarters by the charge that I am speaking mere platitudes to tne peo ple. It ts saia mat i am annouuutiig fair and lust nrinclPles, but my. sin cerity must be subject to the test , of whether or not I give to people wnai they ask. - In other words, the - su preme test sought to be applied by those holding1' this view Is that I am Insincere unless the company does Just what these particular people think that It should do, in the way of rates, or in the way of facilities. It must be apparent to any reasonaoie mind that such a test is in no -way fair. In matters so vast and so intri cate as the management of , a trans portation; company and Its 'relations to the public, there -may frequently be honest ground for difference of opinion. Each locality and its advo cates can, In the nature of things, be expected only to see and to appreciate the exigencies of their immediate sur roundings. The railway manager, on the other hand, must embrace In his view the whole section which he serves; must take Into fair considera tion every interest involved; must make an honest estimate of the fa cilities at his disposal, and must en deavor to adopt a policy which will be Just to the whole public. He cannot undertake to concede the demands of every1 locality and of every special In terest, no matter what . his honest Judgment may be 'upon their "merits. All that can in Justice be exp?cted of Bm'"' is'"t6Me'et""TSucK'aemands. in a Bpirlt of fairness and Justice, and to try in every way to arrive at "a con clusion 'Which will be fair to every Interest He cannot be condemned, nor can his sincerity be Justly ques tioned, if he does not at once con cede very demand that is made up on him. If he meets the situation in a spirit of Justice, then, whether he concedes the demand or declines it, he is entitled to the respect and Just consideration of the public. ; He is not only . entitled to exercise, but it is his imperative duty to exercisa, a business discretion In respect to the propositions which may be presented to him. He must take fairly into consideration every fact and every ar gument that may be offered; but If after fair consideration and confer ence, there remains a difference be tween the two interests, this differ ence must be accepted by both as fair and honorable and as based upon hon est motives and must be submitted to those tribunals which are consti tuted hy the .laws "-of.: the "land -for their determination. f I cannot, there fore, accept the test of my sincerity which is thus sought to be imposed upon me, and I must ask at tha hands of the public its support dn the Just and fair policy of considering each sit uation upon Its merits, andof determ ining it as best I can, with the lights before me." Mr. Flnley quoted Commissioner Storey, of the Texas railroad commis sion, in support of his conviction that it is impossible for the railways to provide better service unless they are permitted to receive reasonable compensation. ' GREAT AND USEFUL WORK In conclusion he said: "The car riers of the South are engaged In ft great and useful work. By furnish ing a way to market, they are stlmu lating the Industry and encouraging the , productive capacity of the peo ple. The people cannot continue to produce more than they can get trans ported to the markets of the world. To set a1 limit upon the capacity ot the carriers, is to set a limit upon the energy and productive capacity of the people whom they serve. No two interests were ever more inter-depend ent or more identical. They should stand shoulder to shoulder In tne great Dame tor inaustrmi su premttcyi where section against sec tlon and country against country con tend; for it must be recognized as an Immutable truth that no section can be , Industrially -supreme which crip ples Its carriers and has inferior ways to market.
