THE-LEG1SLATURE.
uniy aDout ten days remain
for the Legislature to continue
in session and they will have to
do more in that short time than
they have done aU during the
previous part of the session if
they accomplish much important
work. Our legislators have post
poned and put off too many mea
sures until the closing- days of
the session, and the result will
be that many important bills will
not pass, or if passed not receive
propsr consideration. We sup
pose the adjournment will be on
Monday, the 6th of March, as
the sixty days for which the
members can draw pay will ex
pire then, and we cannot exfrect
them to serve without pay, espe
pecially when their regular per
diem is so little.
A bill is pending to allow any
to wn or city to amend its charter
without any act of the legisla
ture, and it ought by all means
to pass. As it is now any town
or city desiring to amend its
charter must wait until the leg
islature meets and get that body
to pss3 an act allowing it- Fre
quently it may be very urgent
and ira jorlant to hae the amend
ment without any long delay and
so there should be authority vest
ed in every town to provide for
any desired amendment. Such
authority might be vested in the
town commissioners subject to a
vote of the people. As it is now
It ought 'to be passed without
any opposition, for it is not ob
ligatory on any landowner but
merely allows those who want
the benefit of it to have it. Wher
ever it has been tried it has
proved to be all that its advocates
claimed for it. v
Although tie session is so near
its close, yet, strange-to say;
nothing has been said about diamond-back
terrapins. For many
years past every Legislature was
called upon io protect diamond -back
terrapins, and the name
had become almost a household
word. Why has this Legislature,
overlooked this old bone of con
tention? The joint committees of the
Senate and House on pensions
have agreed on a bill increasing
the appropriation for pensions to
$750,000 a year. The appropria
tion now is $450,000, so that, if
the bill is passed, the pensioners
will get quite an increase next
December. Up to ten years ago
the annual appropriation for pen
sions was only $100;00Qi, and at
the session of 1901 this writer
introduced in the Senate a bill
doubling that appropriation,
which bill was pass 3d by a n al
most unanimous vote.
The House passed last night
the Senate bill to create a new
county, named Avery, out of
parts of Watauga, Mitefcell and
Caldwell. This makes two new

meat to

through the Representative of
the county even if a majority of
the voters of the town oppose it.
The revenue bill has been re
poitid to the House by the Fi
nance Committee and no doubt
will be passed by the House and
Senate with few, if any, amend
ments. This bill makes very few
changes from the present reve
nue law, and indeed very few
changes have been made in our
revenue bills since 1901. The
few changes made are not im
portant, relating chiefly to spe
ck! taxes, as, for instance, the
tax on horse dealers is increased
from $25 to $50 a year.
A bill was introduced last week
in the House and one in the Sen
ate for State primaries for all po

A REMARKABLE MAN.
In the death of Mr. Samuel
Wittkowsky last week at Char
lotte a remarkable career was
closed, starting in poverty and
ending in wealth. Nearly sixty
years ago a young Polish Jew
landed in New York without
money, without friends and with
out influence and utterly igno
rant of our language, and this is
the man who died last week
worth over half a million dollars
and highly esteemed by ail who
knew him.
There is not to be found a more
despised race than the Polish
Jews, and this fact makes the
more remarkable the wonderful
success of Mr. Wittkowsky in
Fame day. These bills apply to not merely accumulating wealth

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent
Washington, D. C, Feb. 17.
Theweek in Congress has been
of great interest and importance
in legislative matters. The Hwise
has passed the Canadian reci
procity bill by a large majority
and it is predicted that the bill
will pass the Senate. It will not,
however, have smooth sailing
and if it were not for the im
pression that the President will
call an extra session of Congress
almost immediately after the 4th
of March, provided the Senate
does not vote on the reciprocity
bill, it is doubtful if a vote could
be had before the 4th of March.
If the bill come to a vote, there
is but httledoubt that it will be
passed, because a majority in fa
vor of the bill in the Senate is
conceded, but owing: to parlia
mentary usage in the Senate,
there can be limitless debate, and
the upper house has some limit
less debaters who are quite cap
able of talking the bill into the
next session. ,
The opinion in regard to Pres
ident Taft as a politician and a
statesman has risen considerably
since the beginning of the pres
ent session. It is conceded that
he is in the main master of the
situation and when reciprocity
with Canada is established, as
the better minds of the country
think it will be,there is prospect
of reciprocal trade relations be
tween the United States and
Mexico and with the Central and
South American repuolics. With
these ends accomplished close on
to the completion of the Panama
canal, the administration is sure
to finish with eclat,. if not with
another term for President Taft.
There is much unfavorable
comment from all parties in ref
erence to what is called the
"blundering blatherskite diplo
macy,'' or rather lack of it, of
the Democratic heir-apparent to
the speakership of the House of
Kepresen tati ves. Nothing could
have been more inopportune than
the statement that reciprocal
trade relations were preliminary
to the annexation of British
America, and beneficent trade
arrangement.
It i3 something more than op
portune that the exposure of the
great lumber trust comes fast
upon the heels of reciprocity with
Canada and the proposed free
importation of lumber from that
country. The bureau of corpo
rations has just furnished the in
formation that forty years ago
seventy-five per cent of the
timber of the country was owned
by the government, but at pres
ent 80 per cent of it is owned by
private persons. It is apparent
that the United States must con
serve with greatest care thej
small remaining supply of tim-!
ber. and, further, it must, if j
possible, scotch the trust that is
monopolizing with a view to in
creasing still further the exor
bitant cost of such timber as is
not at present under their con
trol. President Taft has issued a
proclamation, not as president of
the United States, but as presi
dent of the Red Cross society,
asking contributions for the re
lief of the famine strieken re
gion in China. John D. Rocke
feller has contributed $5,000 and
there have been many contribu
tions from other sources, and
charitable people are also con
tributing food stuffs and cloth
ing which will be sent by a U.
S. transport to Shanghai and
thence up. the Yangtsekiang riv
er where millions of Chinese in
habitants are in dire distress. It
is said they are selling their chil
dren for food. This, however,
is no particular measure of their
suffering because it is common
with the Chinese in that part of
the world to kill or sell their
daughters. It goes on with more
or Lss obscuration in all the hot
beds of christian civilization. We
are spending millions annually in
China for the conversion of those
people while our exclusion Iavs
keep them' from the United
States. That is practically tell
ing them that they are good
enough for heaven, but not good
enough for this country. They
are an amiable, temperate, indus
trious people. Their country is
greatly over-populated aad it is
not their fault that they are not
able to get enough to eat.

Barned to Death.
Special to the Nevs and Observer.
Littleton, Feb. 16. Mr. J. P.
Alston, one of the county's most
prominent citizens, was burned
to death in his home here this
morning about 4 o'clock. He
was about 45 years of age.
He was a bachelor and lived
all alone in a small house,' abo it
one-quarter of a mile from town.
He had been drinking much of j- ,
;late and was under the Influence 'L",a
jof whiskey yesterday. The night
I operator at the depot discovered
the house on fire and gave the
alarm. Many rushed to the scene,
but nothing could be done to save
the house or its inmate, as the
house was a mass of flames when
they arrived. The charred body
of Mr. Alston was iound in the
ruins.

Wholesale Jail Delivery.
Washington. N. C, Feb. 13.
A wholesale jail deli ver was af
fected at the city jail Jiere'Thurs
day night, sometime between 12
arid 2 o'clock, when eight colored
prisoners gained their liberty.
Some of the prisoners managed
to get possession of a small piece
of wire and managed to pick the
lock to one of the cells, and then
climbed to the too of the cells
and by means of an iron spoon
picked a hole in the rear wall of
th jail, thus making good their
escape.
Ssvere Storm in Keahicky.
Lexington, Ky., Feb. 20.
Lexington and many other points
in central and eastern Kentucky
were shut off from wire commu
nication from late Sunday until
late today, when repairs on a
few lines were effected. The
breakdown was caused by one uf
the worst sleet and ice storms
ever known in this region. , The
storm affected an area of 100
square miles.
7 Whiskey Dealers Fined.
Chattanooga, Tenn., Feb. 20.
Fifty-two whiskey dealers, in
dieted recently under the instruc
tion of Judge McReynolds that
steep, high hill known as "Drag
on Hill," the Chinese belief being
that a dragon ' inhabits it. This
long hill divides the town into .
two parts; every day - hundred's
and sometimes possibly thous
ands of people must climb up
one side and down the other in
getting from one part of the town
to the other. Well, When Chang
Chih-tung was Viceroy in Han
kow, he decided that he would
make a cut. in this hilkand save
the people all this trouble. And
he did. Very shortly thereafter,
however, he developed a terrible
abscess in his ear, and the Chi
nese doctors whom he consulted
were quick in pointing out the
trouble. By making the cut in
the hill, they told him, h had
oireRded the earth dragon which
it, and unless it were
filled up Chang might die and
disaster might come upon the
city. And so he had the cut fill
ed up.
In sight from Dragon Hiil is
another hill known a3 Tortoise
Hill, suppose to be inhabited by
a tortoise spirit or devil, and at
its foot are some lakes in which
it has long been said that the
tortoise washes its feet. Now
these lakes are on property own
ed by the Hanyang Steel and
Iron Works and they decided a
i few years asro that they would
either drain off the water or else
fill up the lakes so as to get more
land. But before they got start
ed the Chinese civil authorities
heard of it and notified the Han
yang Company that such a pro
ceeding could not be tolerated.
The tortoise would have no where
to wash his feet and would
straightway bring down the
wrath of heaven on all the community!
