A Number of Parsons Dead Railroads
Tied Up Shipping Fares Badly
Worst In New York In
Twenty Years.
New York Dispatch, Deo. 27.
The work of repairing the dam
aire wroutrht bv the storm of the
last two days was taken up today
in half a dozen states. Millions
of dollars damage has been done
by the blizzard and tidal wave
that have buffeted the east and
the Atlantic coast. 17 persons to
day are known to be dead in New
York alone as the result of this,
the worst storm of two decades
Thousands of miles of railroads
have been tied up and wire com
munications throughout the affect
ed region crippled.
Gigantic efforts are being put.
forth by every railroad and tele
graph company to bring order out
of chaos. Conditions are being
slowly remedied.
It is feared that the death list
will mount considerally higher, as
the details of the storm s effects
arrive.
Fresh reports of the havoc to
day show that the storm is the
worst that has been experienced
since the New York blizzard of
1888.
In New York City alone today
7,000 men are working with might
and main to clear the streets of
the banked snow. Many of these
have been laboring constantly for
36 hours-. Trains, delayed from
2 to 12 hours, began arriving ear
ly today ou the various lines en
tering New York. The Pennsyl
vania lines, as far as Washington ;
the New York Central, and the
New York, New Haven and Hart
ford roads were the principal suf
rererers, and at places traffic on
these lines was practically aban
doned during the storm, while all
energy was devoted to clearing
the right-of-way. As a result the
trains were moving slowly.
Reports received today from
New England paint the storm as
the worst of many years. Lives
are reported lost in the 14-foot
tidal wave which did immense
damage. Many Massachusetts
cities were in darkness last night.
In Philadelphia the situation
was almost as serious, all surface
traffic being blocked and the
steam road services demoralized
5,000 persons spent Saturday
night in the Broad St. station,
and last night the situation was
almost as bad.
In Greater New York today
dozens of automobiles and taxi
cabs were claimed by their owners
and drivers who had been forced
to abandon them in the streets,
unable to plough through the
snow-drifts. Hundreds of belat
ed passengers today made their
way into New York from hotels
and farm houses in the outlying
districts, where they had been
forced to take refuge when the
blizzard tied up all traffic.
Throughout New York, New
Jersey. Connecticut. Massachu
setts, Pennsylvania and Maryland
the full extent of the damage was
sustained. From all sources
stories of suffering and tremend
ous loss came today in a steady
stream.
In tne Hudson river many ves
sels at anchor have been dragged
perilously near shore.
. In Long Island Sound the situa
tion is even worse, a record
breaking tide having added to the
storm's effects.
Damages to scores of coasting
vessels, big and little, were report
ed today.
The full force of the bllxzerd
was felt along the coast. Ice caked
ships from hundreds of miles to
Lhetorth of New Tork to below
Baltimore were forced to struggle
to keep afloat and today limped
into porta.
In the tenement districts of New
York suffering was especially in
tense. Today every charitable
organization in New York took
up the task of alleviating the suf
fering of the poor. Facilities for
feeding the homeless were arrange
ed as well as the distribution of
clothing and other supplies.
Many of the victims of the
storm here were wayfarers who
were struggling to make their way
home. Exhausted, they fell and
were overcome, to be found hours
later, with life extinct.
The New York Central's erack
train, the Twentieth Century
Limited, was 40 minutes late to
day and roost of the other New
York Central trains from the west
were an hour or more behind
time.
The Pennsylvania's fast trains
were for the most part delayed
from two hours up.
Washington, Dec. 28, 1909.
. Congress has adjourned for a
Christmas vacation after a brief
and uneventful pre-holiday ses
sion. But little legislation has
been enacted and only one appro
priation bill, that for the District
of Columbia, has been passed.
This appropriation is consider
ably less than that for the past
year and there is promise that
the other appropriations will
show a proportionate reduction.
There is much talk of economy
at the White House, at the Capi
tol and in the departments, but
in the national, as in family af
fairs, an economical program is
difficult and it will generally be
found in the end that both the
family and the nation have lived
up to their income and all they
can borrow.
As was expected, there will be
congressional investigation of
what is now known as the Bal-
linger-Pinchot feud. Mr. Ballin-
ger has requested such an inves
tigation in a formal letter to Sen
ator Jones of the State of Wash
ington, stating in his letter that
the investigation should embrace
the forest service, meaning Pin-
chot, inasmuch as he (Ballinger)
believes that the pernicious ac
tivity of certain of its officers has
been the source of inspiration of
these charges.
In an executive session of Sen
ate, Senator Gore, the blind Sen
ator from Oklahoma, offered i
resolution providing for an inves
tigation and directing that a com
raittee of eight Senators, whom he
named, with alike number, of
members of the House, should
conduct an investigation of the
general Land Office and the For
est Service with respect to stone,
timber, coal and mineral lands
and water power sites. The Sen
ators named by Mr. Gore : Nelson
of Minnesota; Dolliver of Iowa
Lodge of Massachusetts; Bristow
of Kansas; Root of New York
Tillman of South Carolina; Stone
of Missouri ; and Owen of Okla
noma, if these Senators shall be
appointed and a comparatively
strong committee of the House
shall be named to act with them,
there can be no doubt of an in
vestigation that will go to the
bottom of this question, a ques
tion of great interest to all the
people ol the United States, con
corning as it does all that re
mains of the splendid natural re
sources of the best endowed coun
try on th'is planet.
There is important significance
in the news that became public
this morning that the President
will in a special message, after
Christmas, indicate that no ne
cessity exists for changing the
Sherman-Anti-trust law dealing
with combinations in restraint of
trade. The President is counter
marching on this proposition and
taking a view of the question op
posed to that of his predecessor. It
is said that the President has
been influenced in arriving at his
new conclusion by the attitude
manifested toward the law courts
by Gompers, Mitchell and others,
since their conv ictlon for con
tempt of court.
During the past few weeks the
New York Custom House has at
tracted almost as much attention
as the Congress of the United
States. Mr. Loeb, Roosevelt's
late secretary, as Commissioner
of Customs, has been a veritible
bull in that china shop, overturn
ing the scales of the sugar trust
and ripping np steamer trunks
and scattering the landing piers
of the great steamers with Paris
ian hats, lingerie, gowns, jewelry,
hoisery, and other sacred stuff
with his sacriligious horns. It is
believed that the general publie
regards smuggling by private per
sons, especially if they are ladies,
witn complacency, mere is a
general feeling that every woman
has a right to buy what she likes
anywhere and that-it is an inter
ference .with a natural right to
make her pay for it a second time
when she attempts to introduce it
Into her own so-called free coun
try, but Mr. Loeb, no doubt, has
the law and dots on thousands of
elegant globe trotters, who have
long been in the habit of outfit
ting themselves in Paris and
London instead "of patriotically
paying the higher prices in their
home shops. There is no doubt
that the custom House is the
greatest of all monopolies in re
straint of trade. If all countries
would abolish their custom
houses, their wax navies might
not rust to the water's edge.

Value of Property and Tax Assess
ment in the State.
Ralcltrb Dispatch:
That real estate, personal pro
perty and corporation valnations
for taxation in North Carolina
aggregate $576,115,170, on which
the State levy in taxes is $1,209,
841, with other general and local
taxes that round up, $8,627,574
taxes paid by the people of the
State, is the showing made by the
State tax commission in its an
nual report to Governor Kitchin
This report does not include
about $325,000 license taxes paid
directly to the State Treasurer.
The increase of total valuation of
all property over last year is
$744,857, in spite of a shrinkage
in the valuation of personal prop
erty amounting to $2,151,431.
Increase in tax valuations since
1901 is $234,893,161, or 68 per
cent. During the same time the
increase in industrial corpora
tions has been 133 per cent.,
public service corporation 90 per
cent., and banks and building
and loan associations 154 per
cent.
The commission declares at
present the danger is toward un
limited and unrestricted rates on
property subject to the tax rates
imposed for every purpose and
often aggregating rates in special
tax districts which, applied to
properties listed at true valua
tion, makes excessive and unjust
taxation. The commission in
forms the Governor that it ob
serves with regret that the tax
rate is not diminishing with the
increase of assessments. The
average rate now borne by all
property in the State, not in
cluding municipal taxation, is
1.105, and when municipal tax is
added, using many large towns
as examples, the rate is 2.20 to
2.41 per cent, of the assessed
value of the property taxed.
Cross or Christmas stamps the as
sociation is adding to its meagre
stoie of funds. There is not a
vement anywhere which has a
higher motive and that is doing
more for the uplift of the race,
and we are already beginning to
see results from the efforts of
this body of big hearted men.
Five

Fighting Tuberculosis.
Raleigh Evening-Timet.
There is a war now in progress
in 'the United States, the impor
tance" and significance of which is
realized by few people and the
outcome of which is regarded in a
listless and desultory manner.
This war is a bloodless one and
its object is not to kill but to
make live. Tuberculosis, the
scourge of the United States, the
disease whose ravages are more
to be feared than an invasion of
a hostile army, and the disease
which draws a larger toll of hu
man life than any other in this
country, is being rounded up and
if the interest" of the people at
large can be aroused, the near
future will see consumption un
der control and the average life
of the American citizen length
ened to a great extent. Tubercu
losis is a preventable disease and
The National Association for the
Study and Prevention of Tuber
culosis has undertaken a mighty
task, which has tor its purpose
the education of the American
people to the fact that tuberculo
sis can be prevented if not whol
ly stamped out The association,
organized in the spring of 1904,
has grown until nearly every phy
sician in the country has allied
himself with the movement and
laymen from every section are
waking np to the dangers of
disease which causes annually
over 150,000 deaths in this coun
try, and are joining the organiza
tion to help fight the "Great
White Plague." There are sev
eral traveling exhibitions on the
road and over 550,000 people have
seen these exhibits. These go
from state to state, putting before
the ' people in the clearest and
plainest way information which
can tie gained from no other
source except direct contact with
the disease. In the sale of Red

The case against Hiram Elliott
and Dan Coble, charged with kill
ing Simpson Coble in Guilford
county a few weeks ago, was tried
in Guilford Court last week,
Coble was acquitted; Elliott was
convicted of manslaughter and
sentenced to five years in the
penitentiary.
lhe murdered man was a son
of Dan Coble and a brother-in-law
of Elliott. The latter testified
that his father-in-law had nothing
to do with the killing and knew
nothing of the trouble until afier-
ward. Elliott said that Simpson
Coble attacked him with a knife
and he struck him in self-defence,
inflicting injuries which caused
his death. The killing was
orutai. The murdered man
was allowed to lie in a gully in
dying condition for some time,
Elliott making no effort to secure
help for him. Under the circum
stances it is ques tionable if jus
tice has been done.

WHAT IS
JUSTICE?
Br MAURICE
MAITBRUMCK.
and Dramatist
PhUosopher

ITHTN- me there is more," runs the fine motto Inscribed
on the beams and pediment of an old patrician man
sion at Bruges, which every traveler visits. '
And so, too, might man exclaim, "Within me
there is more" EVERY LAW OF MORALITY,
every Intelligible mystery.
There may be many others above and below us, but tf these are
to remain forever unknown they become for us as If they did not
exist, and, should their existence one day be revealed to ns, it can
only be because they already are In us, ALREADY ARE OURS.
?' Within me there is more." and we are entitled to add perhaps, "1
have nothing to fear for what is within me."
This much is at least certain that the one active, Inhabited region
of the mystery of justice is to be found within ourselves. Other
regions lack consistency. They are probably imaginary and must
inevitably be deserted and sterile.
They may have furnished mankind with illusions that served soma
purpose, BUT NOT ALWAYS WITHOUT DOING HARM, and
though we may scarcely be entitled to demand that all illusions should
be destroyed, they should at least not be too manifestly opposed to our
conception of the universe.
Today we seek in all things the illusion of truth. It is not the
last or perhaps the best or the only one possible, but it is the one
which we at present regard as the most honorable AND THE MOST
NECESSARY. 7
In the heart of every man there exists an admirable love of truth
and justice, and, as we observe its incessant activity in the depths of
our heart, as we watch it blending with all we think and feel and do,
we shall quickly discover which are the things that throw light upon
it and which those that plunge it in darkness, which are the things
that guide it and which those that lead it astray) we shall learn what
nourishes AND WHAT ATROPHIES, what attacks and what
defends. , , '.
Is justice no more than the human instinct of preservation and
defense! Is it the purest product of our reason or rather to be
regarded as composed of a number of those sentimental forces which
so often are right, though direotly opposed to our reason forces that
in themselves are a kind of unconscious, vaster reason, to which our
conscious reason invariably accords its startled approval when it has
reached the heights whence those kindly feelings long had beheld
what itself was unable to see f '-
18 JU8TICH DEPENDENT ON INTELLECT OR RATHER ON
CHARACTER? . '
All men love justice, but not with the same ardent, fierce, exclu
sive love, nor have they all the same scruples, the same sensitiveness
OB THE SAME DEEP CONVICTION.
We meet people of highly developed instinct in whom the sense of
what is just and unjust is infinitely less delicate, less clearly marked,
than in others whose intellect would seem to be mediocre, for here a
great part is played by that little known ill denned side of ourselves
that we term the CHARACTER, and yet it ia difficult to tell how
much more or less unconscious intellect must of necessity go with
character 1 that is UNAFFECTEDLY honest
The point is to increase within ourselves our DESIRE for justice,
and it is certain that, at the start, our character is less directly influ
enced by our desire for justice than is our intellect, the development
ox wnich this desire in a huge measure controls, and the co-operation
of the intellect, which recognizes and enoourages our Brood intention.
is necessary for this to penetrate into and mold our character. That
portion of our love of justice therefore WHICH DEPENDS ON
OUR CHARACTER will benefit by its passage throturh the intel
lect, for in proportion as the intellect rises and acquires enlightenment
will it succeed in mastering, enlightening and transforming our minds.
xiow shall we then increase and purify within ourselves the dedre
for justice f '.".;-,"-'-.:.'
