MAN NO OPPRESSION
Section Six of the Revenue Act
Passed by the State .
Legislature.
LAW AS TO CORPORATIONS
Circular Letter from the State Auditor
Regarding the Appraisement of Cap
ital Stock Wilmington Corpo
rations Receive Notification.
State Auditor B. F. Dixon is send
ing out to all "corporations the neces
sary blanks for the appraisal of stock,
and accompanying each is a personal
letter, which reads as follows:
"In accordance with. Section 6, of
the Revenue Act, 1901, 1 enclose here
with a blank form for the appraisal of
capital stock of your corporation. The
law requires that this appraisement
shall be made by two of your officers,'
and between the 1st and 15th days of
July, as to the actual value in cash of
your capital stock on the first day of
June. This is a noyel law . for our
people and yet I do not think it was
the purpose of the Legislature to op
press the corporations by ah unjust
tax. I am sure it is not the purpose of
this Department to do anytbiB6f
tgit kind." J
Y'l would respectfully suggest that
instead of trying to arrive at the cash
value ol your capital stock from the
amounts it declared in dividends or
carried into' surplus, or sinking fund,
for any one year, that you could more
readily arrive at its value by estima
ting it through your profits or loss for
a series of years.
"I want you gentlemen to under
stand that it is the desire of this De
partment to accept the appraisal which
you may make of your property .for
taxation as final."
The Wilmington corporations, ex
cept those of very recent origin, have
received blank forms and copies of the
above letter. Consequently the ap
praisal of stock will be in active vogue
for the next ten or fifteen days.

and holding steadfast friends.

Imagine if you can a game most
abundant with errors, plentiful with
hits and almost incessant with "kicks'
yet not entirely devoid of amusement,
and' you have yesterday's battle on
Hilton diamond. In fact, it was to a
large extent entertaining, though not
in the slightest possessing the essential
attribute of baseball-excitement. The
Champions met an abundance of errors
and loose playing with good snappy
ball and, of course, there could be but
one result the Tartars went down in
defeat, with no one to blame, unless it
be Wolf, who put up an inferior arti
cle of ball, and Ashenback with
a repetition of Thursday's costly errors.
The locala;are accredited with three -fourths
as many errors as the visitors,
but they were made through careless
ness, or in other words at sort of
"don't care" moments. The worst
feature of the game was Ash's kicking,
with a strong second from Weddige.
It was like unto a "drowning man
grabbing at a straw," for each regis
tered two errors and the former had to
give way at first to foster, aiaiey
umpired a fine game.
Stewarc made the best twirler's rec
ord, in and out of the box, yet made
here. He emerged from the game a
star, with McGinnis a strong under,
study. For the visitors, Curtis ex
celled, while Deisel fhnd Weddige's
stick work was splendid.
The Tfrtars opened up in great
style. Both Deisel and Weddige
found the ball, but not for hits, and
Foster, followed with a two bag
line drive, which enabled him
to score as Crockett threw wild
to third 'in an endeavor to
cut him off. Ash fanned. Due to
Wolf's wildness the Champions also
started off well, Clayton walked and
Devlin was hit and followed to first
Crockett went out on a fly to centre.
Wolf then filled the bases by giving
Stafford a pass. Sebring put one in
deep centre which Foster obtained,
but which scored Clayton. Stafford
thenfmade a feint by going for second
and Wolf's throw to that bag was
Devlin's cue to Fcore from third, which
he did in great style, assisted by Wed
dige's wild throw home. Thackara
fanned.
It was slum fcLil tweet ftr the
visitors in the second ore, two,
three, out, but the Champions were
there with "the goods," but the. Tartars
couldn't buy them. Warren and Mc
Ginnis led off with singles. Ash made
an error and let Stewart claim first.
Clayton forced Warren out at the
plate. Everybody moved up a peg
on Gwaltney's wild throw to first
and responded to an encore on Dev
lin's siaae o -.ett hit to second
and OlaytolTKrfnrown out
weddige made another diabolical
wild throw and Devlin andV Crockett
tagged the pan Btafford fifflfeed.
The Tartars made two thfcasbgers
in the third, one each by Defeei and
Weddige, And on an error Sebring
and Clayton's wild throw, Jboth scored.
The Champions also tallied Jtwo, War
ren and Sebring, each of whom, ob
tained pretty singles, crossing' the.
rubber. '
The fourth was devoid of runs.:
The fifth netted nothing except a
beautiful two bags drive to left by
Thackara. .."
One run was fostered by the Cham
pions in the sixth, obtaining it pn
Stewart's two bagger and Clayton's
fly to deep center.
Goose eggs were in vogue in the
seventh, but in the eighth there were
all kinds of runs. The Tartars ob
tained two on two doubles by Curtis
and Weddige and a single by Foster.
The ChampioDS ran in four, due to two
baggers by Stewart and Sebring, sin
gles by Crockett and Cranston and a
costly, error of Fester's. .
The Tartars m&de one more in the
ninth on a double by Curtis, a single
by Gilligan and an error on the part
of McGinnis.

Nothing the Matter With the
(Hants. They Are All Right,
We "sjambroked" 'em again yes
terday.
It was a ragged and jagged game
as a whole.
The horse editor's puzzle picture:
Find" Stewart.
Four out of five ought to satisfy
the disconsolate croaker. But it will
never do it
The Turtles defeated the Hornets
yesterday, but the latter "gave Jem a "
good run for their money."
The attendance showed that there
is no decline in the enthusiasm of the
rooters and rooterinas of Wilmington.
If signing new players will "do
the trick" the Turtles will be "strictly
in it." They are averaging about one
new man a day.
Stewart played a beautiful game
all around. His pitching was superb.
his work admirable, and his base-running
excellent.
The sentiment in base ball circles
here is unanimous that the president
of the league should not be owner or
manager o one of the teams.
Devlin will take Stafford's place.
at first base, and the Stab predicts
that he will be a favorite from the
start. Keep your eye on him.
The Wilmington management
should make all needed preparations
for the hard fight next week. The
Giants play.sx games with the Turtles
and it will require hard, conscientious
work to make an even break. "Fore
warned, forearmed."
There are many idiotic rumors
afloat in regard to the Wilmington
team. The Stab is assured by those
in charge that the Giants will con
tinue their good work, and that the
personnel of the team will be kept to
the highest standard.
There are quite a number of sub
scriptions; to the base balJafund here
that have -not yet been paid. In the
aggregate they amount to a consider
able sum, and should be paid at once.
Our team had hard luck in Portsmouth
on account of the collapse of the team
there, not even getting the guarantee.
Our esteemed ornithological is
assured that it was a typographical
error that made the name of the Post
appear as "Pest" in this department
yesterday. Our esteemed is not pes
tering us at alL On the contrary, the
ornithological is a "fellow' of infinite
jest." He's a bird; and we are delight
ed with his baseball warblings.
In reference to the departure of
Messrs. Stafford and Vorhees yester
day, the Stab is authorized by the
management to say that the former
left for his home in response to a tele
gram from his brother, and the nature
of his business is such that he may
not return at all. Mr. Vorhees is ex
pected back, not later than Sunday
evening.

TOE CLOSING SESSION

FEATURE OF THE OCCASION
Address of James H. Poo, Esq , of

tion of Officers Committee Will
Select Next Place of Meeting. :
$
The third annal meeting of the
North Carolina Bar Association offi
cially closed on yesterday. .Many of
its -distinguished members -are still
with us, however,' and will be the
guests of the Wilmington Bar on the
revenue cutter AroTiutn.this morn
ing. . i.Xf--- v-;
The preset aessioo has: ben-animW-l
portantone and from the character of
the addresses delivered will be a me
morable one in the history of the As
sociation. It is with genuine regret
that we see our visitors leave us, and
Wilmington and Wrightsville join
hands in extending to them an invita
tion to meet with us again.
Only one session was held on yes
terday. The feature of the occasion
was the address of James- H. Pou,
Esq., of Raleigh. He addressed the
convention on the subject of "Taxa
tion of Public Corporations," and his
address was, from a practical point of
view, the most important probably of
the present session.
Much routine business was trans
acted.' A resolution was introduced at
the session night before last by Yictor
S. Bryant, Esq of the Durham Bar,
recommending that the State Consti
tution be amended to provide for the
division of the State into three judi
cial sections in which the judges of
Superior Courts should rotate, instead
of the present arrangement. After
discussion, it was referred to the Com
mittee on Judiciary.
The electi6n of officers resulted as
follows: "T .'
