TAXftBLERDPERTY
Returns so far Show that the In
crease Since Last June will be
About One Million, Tax-Listers
to Continue Another Week.
The returns made for the new year
at the office of the tax-listers when
completed will show that there has
been over a million dollars increase
in Mecklenburg real estate and manu
facturing property during the past
twelve months.
The above statement was made to
day by the officials in charge of the
work of tax-listing which has been in
progress for the past thirty days.
The percentage of returns made to
date is about 75 of the whole, and
when all are in, they will show that the
remarkable increase of $1,000,000 or
over has been returned.
The legal time for making the re
turns closes this evening at sun down
but as so many have delayed the mat
ter, it will be necessary for the listing
of taxes to be continued through next
week, as one-fourth of the tax payers
have not yet been heard from.
The returns, when complete, will
give Mecklenburg something like
$14,000,000 worth of taxable property.
The increase has been remarkable, and
is a sure indication of the steady march
forward of the progressive Queen
City. '
From present indications it will not
be many years before Charlotte and
Mecklenburg county will boast $20,000,
000 worth of property, real and per
sonal. THE BOARD OF GOVERNORS.
Meeting Postponed on Account of Ab
sence of Pres. A. H. Lowe.
Today was the date set for the meet
ing of the board of governors of the
American Cotton Manufacturers' Asso
ciation with President A. H. Lowe, of
Fitchburg, Mass., to select a place of
meeting for the convention of the as
sociation in 1907.
On account of the inability of Pres-.
dent Lowe to be present today, the
meeting was postponed until a conve
nient date later on, and may be callec
at Washington or some other point
next time, wherever it is easiest to get
the president and members together.
President Fitch was in this section
vPRtprriav hut on account of business
engagements was compelled to take
his departure last night, and, there
fore, the meeting was caiiea on ior me
present.
Tt has hen stated on very good au
thority that Philadelphia or Augusta
would be the most likely to get the
1907 convention of the Cotton Mann
facturers, but of course nothing defi
nite ran he stated until the formal se-
Uection of a meeting place is announced
by the board of governors. .. ,,
Politicians have iBeen on the
Move To-dav. -Mr. McNinch's
Friends Have been Very Active.
- " .
Mr. Watkins Joins the Other
Candidates.
One of the most interesting devel
opments in the political situation in
Mecklenburg today was the with
drawal of Mr. R. C. Freeman from the
Legislative race. Mr. Freeman in a card
published in today's News says he
has recently had an interview with
Mr. W. A. Grier and finds that Mrl
Grier has decided to enter the race
for the Lower House. As Mr. Freeman
thinks that two different elections to
the legislature is enough for any one
man, he withdraws from the race in
favor of Mr. Grier, they being both
from the same section, vs soon as Mr.
Freeman made known his intentions
not to run for the legislature, Mr.
Grier handed in his formal card an
nouncing his candidacy for the legis
lature. This card appears in another
part of this paper. ,
As to the senatorial race there are
no new developments.! It is generally
conceded that Mr. Frank. R. McNinch
will oppose Mr. McD. Watkins. Wliile
Mr. McNinch has not declared openly
that he was a candidate , his best
friends say that he is in the race to the
finished. I
Today has been one devoted, for the
most part, to talking politics and try
ing to keep cool. Wherever a shady
spot could be located there a crowd
would gather and polities .wa discuss
ed. At Independence Sq iar) early this
morning there was qi.re -a party of
politicians gathered jiscussing the
probable candidates and the coming
primary election. Most of our people
agree that the legislative fight will be
an interesting one and that one or two
more candidates may enter the race
in the next few days.
Mr. Freston Will Make the Race.
Mr. E. R. Preston, of the Charlotte
bar, will be in the race for the lower
house of the State legislature during
the present campaign, which is now
beginning to warm up.
When approached by a News' re
porter today Mr., Preston said: "Yes,
I have decided to stand for the nomi
nation for the lower house."
Continuing, Mr. Preston, added:
"Personally I am in favor of such just
and reasonable extension of the city
limits as our vonderful growth and ex
pansion seems to make necessary.
Greater Charlotte is the cry on all
sides now."
"This question of extension is a
most important one, and hence there
should be ft free, open and' friendly dis
cussion of the matter, as the views
and advice of those in authority will
naturally be desired by the represen
tatives in the legislature."
Mr. Preston, it should be said in his
own behalf, is a tax-payer in Dil worth.
He is a young man of sterling charac
ter and unquestioned integrity, and
will make a clean, open race, for the
position to which he has aspired.
