INCJtAHK OF TAX KH KHUIIS or JOOII GOVKKNME.VT" The anfsors for 190:5 have ln IIm, luted and It U announced that they have met and received their "Instruction," and now the Ira- ortant work of fixing th valuation of real estate is to t ierformed teen providing the girl wag chaste, according to certain plans and ep-ci- If the News and Observer is sincere, flcationa handed down from -whom? why didn't he join with the Fusion Again;we invite the 1 eoplo interested forces ihem to raise the age of con to note the manner In which this i-nt to sixteen years or did he very important work U done and have to wait until a case turned up bear in mind that the amount of under his nose, with two of the par , tax they will be required to pay ticlpants In the disgraceful affair will deiiend upon the valuation tixed from his printshop, before he could by these assessors. The announce ment has been made time and again that property is grossly undervalued and that If the valuations were raised to the proper figure uuflkient money could bo raised with which to defray the current excuses of the state government meet all the ap propriations and soon discharge the state debt of half a million dollars Incurred by the two last democratic legislatures. As before mentioned In thtue colums it ere is a deliberate purpose on the part of those in authority in N. C. to force the valu ation of proirty, generally to a Ioint out of all reason, and especially is the property held by corporations to be mado the subject of fictitious valuation. Why? Because t..e reck- less extravagance ana imsappropria- tion of funds for which the two last leRislatures are now famous (or infamous as will appear when his- tory is truthfully written) must be paid for. Farmers should bear in mind that by raising the value of their homes the machine hopes to deceive them and make them lose sight of the burden of overtaxation. A nice scheme to extort money from the dear people while ilattering them with the idea that they have grown suddenly rich. A nieo eehomc Jaut a cheap piece of demagoguery worthy only of the crowd now in office. But will the jeople be thus deceived? If it had occured to the voters that they would be taxed to pay for the red shirt carousals and mid night maraudings of 1898, the im peachment of the two upright re publican judges and the defense of the thieving registrars would they have given their support to such a gang? DOES "GOOD GOVERNMENT" TEND TO CORRUPT THE BALLOT-BOXf The Wilmington Messenger says: "That little ballot box smashing affair at Newberne during the pri mary election on Monday carries one back to the elections before the reform movement. We thought the disfranchisement of the negro and the putting of elections entirely in the hands of white people was to do away with all such matters which were formerly considered necessary evils because of the peculiar con dition of affairs." Commenting on the above the Charlotte Observer of Monday adds: "And to make matters worse, this affair took place in connection with one of the very things which the reformers annexed to the Demo cratic paraphernalia along with other newfangled ideas the lega lized primary". It must look hard to the demo 0ratic heelers who have been taught to smash ballot-boxes and pad the re- turns to see their friends going back , . mu 4U1u tuOB,OUi,uuC1. xx, ,o an old adage that you should bring up a child in the way it should go and in its old asre it will not demrt there from. In stuffing and smashing ballot- boxes the democratic heelers have stuck to the old adage. If the democrats of this state wish honesty in elections they will have tl:..J mi put uuw ixifu at mo ueau oi me of the party to issue the instru:tions. Henry L.Merrick, editorial writer and paragrapher on the staff of the Washington Post died Saturday tWT P&T!hsln the editorial columns of The Post will be greatly missed by the many readars of that paper. The Washington Post states that a Republican majority in the United States is assured until 1907. 8 .unity ' Issue of the News and Observer, In ei caking of the thame ful affair that occnred la tbe suburbs of Italeigh some days ago in which three vounc men and a elrl of 14 were concerned, gays that the age of w v consent should be raised to eighteen rears and not a day leas. And that the next General Afsembly should see that It was raised. When the Fusion Jezlslature In 1836 was trying to protect the virture of the fair women of our state the demo crats were theonesioHry to cry them down. The age of consent then was twelve and the Fusion Legis lature made a hard fight to raise it to sixteen years, but they were cried down by the democrats wfao wanted it to tay at 12 years, until they was the legislature would pa the bill anyway, and the democrats then conpromlsed on making the age of consent four- seo we needed a better law. The convicts who made their es cape from Castle Haynes Monday mast have come to the conclusion that they preferred being shot down In trying to make their escape from the filthy camp rather that stay tiere and be gradually eaten up by the lice. If the authoritories will have a house cleaning and kill out all the filthy vermin and furnish the prisoners with clean bedding no doubt many of the escaped prison ers would return and ask to be ad mitted. Cotton 3old for ten cents in Ral eigh Saturday, This is one cent higher than for corresponding date last year. The farmers who have not been damaged by the recent wet weather will doubtless realize a neat sum on their cotton this year, as cotton is already being shipped back from Liverpxd to meet the demands in the United States. The annual meeting of the South ern Cotton Spinners' Association will be held in Charlotte May 14th and 15th. It is stated that a num ber of well known manufacturers will make addresses on pertinent subjects. It would be much easier for the P3iiltentiary authorities at the Camp ; at Castle Haynes to kill all the fil thy vermiuniu the camp instead of trying to whitewash them. Maj. J. A. Lundeen, of the United States army who is now stationed at Fort Caswell, has been detailed by the War Department to inspect the North Carolina National Guards. The Gattia-Kilgo Suit Granville Court is in session this week and it Is stated the Gattis Kilgo suit will probably be tried again. It is stated that the at torney's on both sides are ready for trial. TWELVE MADE DASH FOR FREE DOM Some of the Convicts at Castle Haynes Leaves the Filthy Vermin Behind Them. Wilmington, N. C., April 20. Twelve convicts serving terms ag gregating ten years on the New Hanover chain-gang made a dash for liberty this morning as they were being brought out of the stockade at Castle Haynes and six of them suc ceeded in making good their escape. J no Taylor, colored, serving twelve months for larceny in Wil mington, was shot and instantly killed by the guards, and two others, a 1 TT -a-a Aiiurew jiee ana liiii .renny over- hauled and returned to the stockade, I m a i rs -w L Aomgni am serving twelvemonth, and Charles Bryan serving sixty days, from Craven county, were captured by colored guards stationed at Northeast River bridge which they attempted to cross.

One of the warehouses of the Lily Mills at Spray was destroyed by fire this morning at 9 o'clock. Two hundred and any bales of cotton were con sumed. It Ls not known how the fire orlzinated. The total loss is estimated at 12,00. The execution of John Broadnax, which occurs at Wentworth on May 22, will be private. All hangings in the past have been public, but the law has been changed. The last execution was a triple affair, two negro men and a woman, for murder and took place near the county home, January 13, 1882. The act ing prosecutor who tonvicted them was Jacob A, Long, Esq., a brother of Judge B. F. Long, who sentenced Broadnax on Thursday. The last prisoner sentenced to death in this county before this was tried by an other eminent Statesville jurist, Judge Aarmfield. It was a case of arson and the condemned, an oH negro man, died before the sentence of the court was inflicted. High CUm Attraction For Italeigh's May Festival, May 4th-9th. The Acme of Amusement Enterprise will be there. The leading attraction at every first class exposition, carnival or street fair throughout the country ha, been the Okill-Mundy-Levitt Midway, and everywhere it has been exhibited it has been the con census of public opinion that for high-class general excellence and marked superiority they have far excelled anything else or the kind ever seen in America. They are educational and refined, entertaining and'clean, amusing and harmless, elevating and edifying, honarably conducted and honestly advertised. The fronts of the shows are true works of art, resplendent wit t'uh carving, gilding, painting and aec oration, studded with hundreds of vari-colored incandescent lights which flash and glitter like a my riad of jewels, while crowning all are the great white dazzling arcs, which shed light as bright as day oyer the entire midway. Each show is the very best of its kind i existence, and there is an air c splendor about th3m that is so sadly lacking with other aggregations. There is nothing of tbe cheap and tawdry, flashy and trashy about them. Instead all is the richest, most refined elegance, where the very best of people are want to go, and where the old and youDg, and the rich and poor alike seek and find pure, innocent recreation and amuse ment. This company opsns the season in Raleigh then they go to Norfolk Va, for one week, Philadelphia Pa., Baltimore Md , for three weeks. Winter Snow Storm Over Middle Earapt Berlin, April 20. The gale of Sunday wrought such havoc on the German Emperor's palace at Pots dam. The 36 hours snowstorm over middle Europe ceased today at day break. The snow is two inches deep in Berlin, increasing to a yard deep in the Hartz Highland. Snow lies deep in east Prussia and Poland where the wires are down and trains are delaj ed. The snow is melting rapidly and the streams are already foolding. IT SAVED HIS LEO P. A.

The Pardon Mill is Still Running The pardon mill is still running On April 1st, the Governor issued nine pardons for prisoners whose terms ranged from thirty days to six years.
