The Opinion of The Editor and the Opinion of others which we Can Endorse on the Various Topics of the Day. As will be seen in another col umn, some of the railroads have signified to the Railroad Com mittee theirwilliugne.-sto waive their charter rights (?) of exemp tion and will enlist tlieir prop erty for taxation and others are expected to follow. The fctate Press generally i applauding in advance this action of the cor porations and speaking of their generosity, patriotism and sense of .justice, etc. It is to be re gretted that the spirit did not strike them sooner and to be wondered at that the laborer struggling to pay tax on his lit tie tint lias not Jong since risen to inquire in the justice and equity of such corporations, who more enjoy and more need the piotectioa of the government, not paying a cent of the State's expenses. This may be patriot ism and generosity, but we are inclined to believe that it is done to try to fight off a Com mission. They prefer to pay tax to being investigated by a commission. Before another twelve months we will see what it means. Hope that we are mis taken. The charter of the W. & V. Railroad as originally printed in the laws of the Legislature of 1831 is not punctuated like the manuscript of the same which is on, file in the office of the Secretary of State. The Daily Chronicle of the 20th prints the two different readings and asks which did the Legisla ture intend to become a law. The printed copy (of the part under controversy) reads : And the shares shall be deemed personal property and the property of said company; and the shares there in SHALL UK EXKMl'T FROM ANY VV1UAC CHAItOK OH TAX WJIATSO KVKK. The manuscript copy reads : And the shares shall be deemed personal property, and the property of said company, and the shares thereiu shall be exempt from any public charge or tax whatsoever. According to the latter read ing all the property of said com company would be subject to taxation ; according to the first reading the shares only would be exempted. Which did the Leg- slature mean ? The difference s a comma in the one case and a semi-colon in the the other after the word ''company," and )n that punctuation point hangs half million dollars, for .the taxes ol the road would nave amounted to at least that amount since the granting of the charter. Bully Heed and his conscien tious gang are bent, it seems, to acquire a reputation that would make the ancient Goths and Vandals envious. Their whole course in the present Congress is so outlandish and antagonistic to a form of gov ernment like ours that we are at a loss for words to-characterize their conduct. They have ad mitted and seated the Radiral lmposter Senators from Montana without a qorum vote, in the face of a Democratic majority and in the face of the certificate from the Governor that the Democratic Senators were elect ed. They passed, with less than an hour's notice, not allowing discussion, the Judicial Hill, one of the most important measures since the foundation of the Gov ernment. It provides for the appointment of 18 new United States Circuit Judges, giving the President power to appoint them all of the fama political party. iiius our judicial system was changed for partizan purposes, 18 new Judges' dps created, and all done in an hour's time, with out debate and with less than a Quorum present, and now, to cap the climax, they have ar ranged a tariff bill tbatwill place heavier bnrdensf upon the agricultural class, and that too In the face of unprecedented agricultural depression, and in deliauce of the Alliance's appeal for relief, aud, unless death or the end of time prevents, they will rush it through regardless of consequences. We said, this was the climax. We fear not. Tyiant Reed will dive again into his Pandora's box, bring up mors deviltry and oppression. Can such things continue under a. representative government? Let the people speak in thunder tones of condemnation; at the next ballot box ! INVESTIGATING KAIL.KOADS looking into the Charters and the Workings of Corporations that Kvade Payment of Taxes. 1 he legislative railroad and corporation investigation com mittee met in Raleigh on Tues day of last week. The mem bers of the committee are State Senators PL W. Kerr, of Samp son, aud B. F. Aycock, of. Wayne and Represen ta i ves M.E. Carter, of Buncombe; T. H. Sutton, of Cumberland, and J. B. Holman, of Iredell. , The committee was created and appointed by the last General Assembly -with instruc tions to forthwith proceed to investigate the question of the liability of any railroad or other corporation, claiming im munity from taxation by virtue of any provision in its charter, to list and pay taxes upon its property, and to also investigate and ascertain what railroads or other corporations have failed and refused to list their stock and other property tor taxation The committf-.e was further ordered to report the testimony taken by them, and to report ii j sucu legislation or other pro ceedings as in their opinion may be requisite to compel said companies to pay their lawf ul taxes. This committee has held one meeting previously at which aline cf work was mapped out, and subpeens-s were issued to the representatives of the At lantic Coast Line and the Raleigh and Gaston railroad to appear before them at this meeting. Both of these roads have charters exempting thm from taxation. The exemption in the charter of the Coast Line is absolute. That of the Raleigh and Gaston is conditional, be cause the provision is that the road shall pay tax to the amount of 25 cts. on each share of stock when its net earnings shall equal a eight per cent interest on the stock. The company made the claim that under this provision it is exempt, from taxation necausa the net earn ings do not amount to that per centum per annum. But the investigations of the committee showed that the profits of the road have exceeded 8 per ct. and the fact that some of this profit has been used in making im prove ments and building branches does not by any means exempt the company from taxa tion. YTarren G. Elliot appeared be fore the committee and asked for the courtesy of 60 days to answer the demands of the committee, which was granted. it is understood that at the end of this time he will come up and waive the exemption in the Company's charter aud agree to enlist for taxation its three and a half million dollars worth of property in the State. The income to the State in this prop erty alone would be over 10,000 per year. The committee will be in session all this week if not longer, and will issue subpoenas for the managers of ExpressCom panies and other corporations to appear and be investigated. ti:xii:tii to povmcty.

It is not in reason to suppose that he had the modern newspaper in his mind when he wrote "There is that scattereth and yet mcreaseth; and ihere is that with-holdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty;" but the saying applies to newspaper advertising just as surely as if it had been written in these latter days of the nineteenth century.

It must be presumed that every housekeeper knows how this important work of the househond should be done, and, therefore, any directions on the subject would be unnecessary. But this is an error, as there are now new aud improved ways of washing which renders the work more easily done, and every housekeeper, even though it is not necessary for her to do her own washing, should under stand the best method of doing the work in order to direct others. The first that to be considered in the management of thei laundry is to have proper uten sils. The tubs should be clean and of the proper size. The washboard should be free from nails or broken places which inipht tear the clothes. The work bench should be firm and high enough to prevent fatigue in bending over the tubs. The water boiler should be kept clean and dry. The clothes line, if not wir, should always be taken down after using, anl clothes pins should be put in a bag or bucket kept for the purpose and put awTay. Soft water is the best for washing. If a machine is uspd for wash ing it is best to soak the clothes iver night in warm, soft water, to which should be added a tablespoonful of Pyle's Pearl ine to every gallon of water. Even when a machine is not used the soaking in this compound will be found to greatly facilitate the work, as it removes aU stains ani loosens the dirty spots. When ready to wash, the clothes should be assorted the fine separated from the coarse, the white from the colored. The water should be ready in the tubs as warm as the hands will bear. A tablespoon ful of pear- une aauea to every three or four gallons of water will whit en the clothes and reader the use of less soap necessary Clothes should not be boiled over five minutes, after which they shoul d be put in a tu,b of cold wctt-oif o i. l tlxo ow.lrT muiUCtl out, when they may be rinsed in blue water and wrung out for the last time. The clothes that are to be starched should be put to themselves, and the others being hug out immedia tely. The starch should be as hot as the hand can bear, the articles dipped in, those need- iug to be very stiff first, then the towT. -motr ha t . nnail iviier t f L being cfai..ViQ Conh article should be shaken tree ot ... . , .

The first clue to the first link in the chain of evidence against him was gotten when Dr. Ste vens exhibited the death missila to blacksmith Wilson, who said that he recognized it as a piece very similar it not the same piece that Butler's son had pick up in thn shop a few days before. The next clue was that Butler's own gun was found in the branch near where the murder wras committed, and Butler's son was seen to taKe the gun from the house the morning of the murder.

It is the great delusion in the world for a boy to get the idea that his life is of no consequen ce, and that the character of it will not be noticed. A matily, truthful boy will shine like a star in any community. A boy may pos-ess as much of noble character as a man. lie may so speak and live the truth tl at there shall be no discount on his word. And there are such noble boys, aud wider and deeper than any are apt to think is theii inlluencc. They are the king noys amuug muu fellows, having an immense in fluence for good, and loved and respected because of the simple fact of living the truth. Dr. Kingsbury in Wil. Messenger. PIK!
