Oa the 17th paga of the Pr
gres:ve Farmer of April 1st there
is a very thoughtful article on the
subject of taxation. The qaes
tion is the mcst importar.t sa jjct
that can e: gge the attention of
any people, and if all cur editors
would devote more tim') to the
intelligent discussion of such sub
jects, their papais would devote
more time to the intelligent
di8CUS3ion of such subjects,
their papers would accomplish
more end be read with muoh
moie interest. The editor of the
Progressive Farmer is either right
or wrong in the position he takes.
If he is right, then the only reme
dy for us is to send men to the
!egiiiatu!e who will amend our
laws as to rmove the injustice
from which we now suffer. If he
iB wrcug, thea let us continue to
send lawyers to the 'egnlature to
make our laws even worse (if pos
sible) than they new are. How
long, otl how long will the com
mon people continue to march up
tc the polls and vote aB the besses
te'l them.
In the great European war there
is not a soldier in the trenches
that can give an intelligent reason
why he is trying to kill his neigh
bor, ile ia fighting simply to
gratify the love of power and greed
of gain on the part of his rulers.
And there is cot one cf the com
mon people of North Caroliua who
can give, an intelligent reason why
he should vote for a lawyer to go
to the legislature. It is simply
to gratify the love of power and
greed of gain on tbj part of our
lawyers.
Let me say, lest I be misnnder
stood, that I hava no utk od feel
ing toward our lawyers- Many of
them I knew to be nice gentleman,
but they should not have the
three-fold power of makmg our
laws, interpreting r ut laws, and
executing our laws. It is well
known that wfcen the present con
etitution cf the United States was
made b y George Washington,
Thomas Jefferson, John adams,
J.ihn Hay, Jas. Madison, etc,
etc, the first thing they decided
on was that it wou'd not be wise
to entruBt the three fold pwer of
making the laws, interpretii g tl e
laws atd executing oar laws in
the hands of any one set of m?n.
