ANM.I.Y CONDITION AMD KB MOV r. IT. HOW TO Judge Clark in hii speech before the graduating clan of the Qreens boro Normal and Industrial School for girls, furnished some food for lire thought. lie called attention to the ugly, not to say startling- fact that there are more illiterate white Toters in North Carolina than in all of the other thirteen Sooth era States. Who is responsible for this hamefal condition! The Jadge also pointed ont the to remove the .burning shame. He showed how a talf million dol lars can be raised each year in,addi linn tn the amoant now raised for public schools and not oppress any body by doing it. He showed that a very low income tax and inheritance tax (one of the fairest and jastestof all taxe) would raise oyer $100,000 annual! v. He showed next that many states, including Minnesota Illinois and New York are taxing the gross receipts of corporations three per cent or more, and that three ner cent tax in this State on the gross receipts of the earnings o railroads alone would be $400,000 a year. He further showed that the net profit of the railroads in this State last year was about $5,000,000; that, therefore, after they, had paid the tax they would have $4,600,000 left as clear profits. No one else in the State is making such profits as that. In fact, Judge Clarke further shows that if such taxes were levied that those who would pay them would still not be paying as much taxes in proportion to their ability to pay as the masses of the people are paying. What would be the result? We would haye nine months public schools in the Ktate and enough money to make decent and necessary appropriations for the Htate educa tional institutions. Judge Clark in concluding his speech said: "Mr. Mebaue broke the ice in ma king this recommendation to the legislature. It considered the mat ter, but the voice of the people had not been heard and the voice of the corporation was of course ready to respond in opposition. When the next legislature meets the people may have discussed the matter and made their decision. The fate of our public school system and of higher education is for the people to decide. Shall we have an effective system or shall it linger in a coma tow eonditionT A LAW rUR -CLIENTS." The Texas legislature has just passed an anti-trust law which con tains the following provision: "The sale, delivery or disposition of any of the articles, commodities or things hereinbefore mentioned by any individual, company, or corporation transacting business contrary to the provisions of this act, within this State or else where, is hereby declared to be unlawful and contrary to public policy, and the purchaser of any article or commodity from any such offending individual, com pany or corporation shall not be lia ble Tor the price or payment, wheth er the purchase was made directly from the individual, company or corporation bo unlawfully transact ing business or directly from one who acted for such individual com pany or corporation as agent, etc." This is about the only sting that an anti-trust law can carry. It puts a trust on the same plane with the gambler, which every one will admit as proper if trusts are illegal. This is the provision which the Missouri law carries and which a few weeks ago was enforced against a trust do ing business in that State. And this is the provision which it was sought to incorperate in the anti-trust law passed by the last legislature in this State, but which the corporation lawyers of.that body refused to let become a part of it. Referring to the action of the legislature in strik ing this provision from the bill, Web ster's Weekly, (a Democratic paper) said at the time: " Mr. Stevens' anti-trust bill fared badly at the hands of the judicial y committee of the Senate last Friday Its best feature the dynamite in tended to blow up the trusts was stricken out and other changes made that renders it impotent to harm the trusts. It is better to have no trust law at all than to have one that is not worth the paper it is printed on. No law is worth a snap that does not pro vide a penalty adequate to the of fese it forbids. Good men are gov erned by their sense ot right; bad men must be taught the terrors of the law. "The charm of the House bill is that it puts the trusts on the defen sive; treats them as outlaws and de nies them the power and authority of our courts to force our citizens to re spect the rights of combinations or ganized in defiance of law. The principle is just and reasonable. It will not hnrt nobody who obeys the law. It ought to hurt those who break it." This action of the legislature, in striking from the billets, only effec tive provisions clearly indicates who were its masters. In fact, it was a current newspaper report at the time that one of the legislators when asked why he opposed these effective proyisions, said he did to In behalf Much in Little IswpMtaUy tnrt of Hooda riialor ctawcrer eootalnad grt eurstfte power to.

I tDl8 reminds us that in some of the erwise this action of McKinley's is a The swindle has been well exposed, and efforts have been made within the last few years to stop it, but have been rendered unsuccessful by corporation influence in Congress. Dunns! the last session oi congress, i when provision was being made for I armor for the new battleships, the I price which the Secretary was I authorized to pay lor it was reaucee, i but no provision was made whereby I the government could secure armor I in the event the armor plate com- panies refused to sell armor at the rednced nrice.

I monoDolv. the government would . -' have pay them tneir price or go without armor. And in view of this fact. Senator Butler at the last session or uongress. secured in passage through the Senate of a bill authorizing the construction of a government armor plant as that the government could supply its own armor. This bill as stated passed the Senate, but was beaten in conference. If it had passed it would have given life and effect to the other provision reducing the price, for rather than see the govern ment build its own plant and thus end their opportunity for extortion, these armor companies would gladly have accepted the reduced price. These Companies and their kindred allies knew too well what they were about ...... I to let this bill pass, and because it I did not. tho einected has now . . . v - i nappenea. xnai is, tuese iwo com- panies have just refused to sell armor to the government at the re duced price, though it is a price in the same Companies were selling the same armor to foreign countries for. Referring to the refusal of these Companies to acoept the government's price, the New York Jovrnal says: Of course the proper and sensible thing would have been to make an appropriation for a Government armor plant in the same bill that fixed the price of armor. What sort of position should we have been in if we had to depend upon private es tablishments for the batteries of onr shipsl Our naval gun factory turns out the best guns in the world at half the price we should have had to pay for them in the market. We can repeat that experience with access when Congress acquires an armor of common sense. TBI PEOPLES PARTY rLATFOH SHOULD GUIDE. In the new time zeal and ardor of their protest against trusts, certain Democratic and Republican converts to this People's Party positiop, have actually suggested, as the best meth od of removing them, that the gov ernment should own and control cer tain of the largest industrial trusts. lain OI me ltrgesi industrial trusts, Suarar Trust, and others.

This only emphasizes the fact that in the order of their eon version and in the infancy of their new belief they should not try to stand atone, but should rather trust to the guidance of the People's Par ty which has so long fought the evil. If they will study the People's Par ty platform they will learn that the party is opposed to the government ownership of industrial trusts such as the above named, but insists up on the government ownership and control of natural monopolies, such at the highways of transportation, and the means of the more rapid tel egrathie communication, which by virtue of being public utilities, should of right, and according to the dee trine of the fathers, be under public -ntrolforft. bt pibl. pibli. good. When yon take these public , utilities from private control von have removed the roots the feeders . t . a , . . . . private enterprises. and in so doing have settled the trust question. Remember, industrial trusts could not live to such an ex tent bnt for collusion with the man agers of these great natural monopo lies, these privately controlled pub lie utilities, these instruments of commerce, which, according to the Constitution', should be in the hands of the people. The new Finance Com mitt of the Board of Agriculture has examined the books of the Agricultural De lina partment and made a report which seems to have furnished considerable in of gratification to that class of Demo cratic papers of the state whose policy it is to magnify the faults of others and minimize their own. We susoeet. however, that the re port, partisan as it is, is not as high ly pleasing as it seems to the peeu jari - morbid taste of these papers .hih Vnlrnra-lik. have wa tea to We deem this so because receive it. . the prominence which they give of tt clerical inaccuracies, such as spelling diem dime. And the I report itself, though the burden of its song is carelessness and ineffi ciency, admits that the books were neatly and accurately kept.' One of its chief complaints was the failure o insert itemized vouchers in accounts, though the itemized Touchers, as per their own admis-l gion, were on file in the office and J state offices under Democratic con-1 trol no books were kept at all, or at least were not found when this administration came in; and the fact that the Democrats now find books to investigate, and, upon m- destination, find them "neatly and accurately kept" is an item which should be duly noted by these Dem ocratic oaners. At any rate, it is not becoming in the class of Demo cor(j referred to, with their long re-1 cra tg 0f state abuses, to cast the grst one. The Washington Post considers and usually is itself a tair paper, when individuals are concerted, but evident belief that wealth can do no harm, makes it one-sided when it comes to question enecung corpo- rate interests, in a recent eauonai -r i 1'i S 1 aeienaing me acuoa oi iu riiruuB t m f a I e Al J n not complying wan ine law re- ... . . i auirintr automatic car couplers, n- uses an argument which from ltspont of view saves the K.

It says; "Railroads are corporations crea ted by the people. Their sins are chargable to the people. If they have been culpable in failing to pro vide safety appliances for their work men, the voting masses must snare the blame.''

' H1"u The Spanish government has just ceded to Germany the Caroline Isl- ment of Gaam to United States I xnis cession io uermany comes as a surprise to Americans, but Germany has of course had the matter under consideration for some time, and this no doubt accounts for her unfriendly attitude toward us during peace ne gotiations with Spain. This new acquirement by Germany is likely to add further embarrassment in our relations toward Germany, as in the Ladrones for instance she now but- rounds us, owning all of the islands oi that group except uaam which we retained, thus f urnishine constant opportunity for disagreement. These islands which the Spanish govern ment has just ceded were about the last left appendages of Spain's an cient empire. 4 eseMamwrawaam " The success of the State Universi- ty lor the past year must be hichlv U.Hf jioK to wr, North C J.H- I man.

A glance at a table of recent rail road earnings shows a large increase in almost every case. This accounts for the reports ot prosperity we hear so much about. 1 eDns)lvanla P. P. State Convention.
