AtUsded 1? meetinf , ai $3.00 per day, Traveled 510 mDea at 5 cents per mile. Services as committee 3 days at 2.00 presentation of a bill against them as a reflection upon their honor. This is a survival of the good old days when money was easy, profits large and life moved slowly. The farmer bought freely from his mer. chant and paid sorely when it was con venient without any urging whatever. A bill was evidence that trust was at an end. But this day has passed. Men trust each other as much as ever. But bills have a different significance and are more necessary. They are not a sign of distrust but of the need to collect discounts. The world moves faster now; money must Boat faster; profits are scant and collectioas must be prompt to save interest and discount. A man wrote a newipaper man in this city last week that he was eighty years of age and bad never received a "duo for money" until the newspaper man sent hisn one. His honor was touched. We had a somewhat similar experience with a Baptist minister re cently. While there remain men who do not wait for bills the vast majority will not pay until tbey have received a bilL In towns and cities nearly every one waits until a bill is received. We could wish it were otherwise. This being so, bills must be sent out. Tbey must be sent out or acceunts will not be collected, and loss and ruin will follow. Quick and full collections are essential to success. Nor can discrimination be made. The editor has so much else to do that he cannot send out the accounts. mous law should be repealed, and the Times call upon the Senators and Rep resentatives of North Carolina in Con; gress to lose no time in aiding in its repeal. A man who deserts his own people to join the enemy, is not en titled to the respect ot his fellows, much less to be placed on an honor roll and receive a pension for life from the Government. good roads. If he will be willing to be taxed that road building may be car ried on in every part of the county of which he Is a resident. The value of land in remote sections would be increasd fifty per cent. , and in some cases one hnndredper cent. Try cutting and filling and smoothing the roadways. J. a WINSTON.

The Gastonta Gtsette has a very level-headed editor, and among oth er very sensiDie articles wnico nis re. cently appeared in that paper . is the following upon the subject of the equal ization of taxes : , The question of equalisation of taxation is ever present with the legislators. In our complex industrial , and commer cial s- s em taxes may oever reach aiR.rfr Mmmttt. bisis that is perfectly jast and equitable to all; but there are some very glaring not to say gross inequalities whjch r tainly ought to receive the immediate corrective attention ot the General Assembly so soon to meet in Raleigh, In a news item elsewhere it is noted that a certain small railway in eastern North Carolina has declared If stock dividesd of loo-per cent for the year The criticisms and protestations I iooa. ; Now it is probable that this! which have greeted.
