As a friend ol morality, religion and educa . tion there was none more zeal ous than he, but -while' in thai legislative body one class that he took special care and made the greatest efforts to serve was the poor, old, anel wounded Confederate S o Id i.e r .

The American people have no justi fication for what is going on. While Dewey is the hero eS the hour had he sunk the Spanish fleet and come awav -he would have 'done good business.

Dunn 's Tobacco Market. We learn that most, of the armers who have planted to- )acco in the sections contiguous to Dunn have got iair stands and the plants are growing nicely. The prospects are fair J -1 TIT. !1. il. or a good crop, . wiine ie farmers are busy cultivating to bacco workmen here are busy erecting two large warehouses for the sale of tobacco, and we want the farmers to' know that Dunn will be prepared to buy their tobacco when it is ready for market, and will be able to giv? them the highest prices al- so. One of the houses is nearing completion and will be finished now soon. Dumber is being placed on the lot for the other which will be ready in plenty time for the reception of the first tobacco that comes oh the market. Each of these houses will have compe tent and experienced managers and a corps of buyers. So grow your tobacco with the in tention. of selling it in Dunn. Our people are determined to make Dunn a good tobacco mar ket and we will have it. Buyers are already inquiring aJjout our market with expecta tions of coming here lliey ex pect to find a fine grade of to bacco here that will . command good prices. Let us4ill work for Dunn and Dunn's tobacco market. Talk it. Don't fail to mention it to your customers, neighbors and UllUUCi iliiiiij, .-v w . like success:" To make a suc cess all must work to that end.. List Your Notes & Mortgages. Under the new Revenue Act and Machinery Act there are several requirements and pow ers given that have not hereto fore been contained in them. The -law names all the subjects of taxation and gives full power to the list-takers to get all prop erty taxed on the tax books. We give here one provision of the Machinery' Act in which dealers ' in bonds, notes anel mortgages may be interested. It reads : "If any person shall, with a THxes, 1 un ui "reiuse tu ui vo ui to the assessor any bonds, notes. claims or other evidences of debt which are subject to asses ment and taxation, under this act, the same shall not be recov erable by action at law or suit in equity before any of the courts of 'this State until thev have been listed and the tax paid thereon." A nother provision is t -h a t where a man has solvent credits he can deduct the amount of collectible elebts he owes from them, and if he has paper -that he fears is not solvent .entirely he must list it at its market value. It makes it a misde meanor to transfer, exchange notes or se-cu rites' for the pur pose of evading the payment of taxes thereon. It gives the tax-lister power to ask ques tions and to send for persons and papers. A strict compliance with the aw will get all property on the 1 j . hooks lor taxation. That of the rich as well as that of the poor. The rate of taxation levied by the State is 43 cents on the hun dred dollars of property and 1.29 on the poll. The Dog Days are evidently approaching, and we may look out for freaks of mad-d ncre nt runaway horses, of lightning and crank preachers. Here is one of the latter who hns al ready broke loose on Low Island, owing no doubt to the present hot wave. He is a Dr Pel ham Williams, a nel is re ported to have said recently ; "I elo not believe in any Sunday school that evpr w.-i that ever is, or that ever will be.

All there is of this trust busi ness is the fact that when they finally reach J -perfection they j j. will do 'away with two-thirds of the men now employed. It is true that they are a great, pos sibly the greatest, labor-saving machine ever invented. But labor-saving machinery can go too far. There is a tradition which remnants of history will bear out as truth that in the Oriental countries labor-saving machinery was one time de stroyed. And when labor-saving inventions, trusts, or what not, come to displace 20,000,- 000 ol people they will be de stroyed not by an Lmperor, forced to do it but by an up rising of the masses. A revolu tion is just as certain in this country as death or taxes.
