News Items.
The following items are clip
ped from the Statesville Land
mark, because they contain some
thing:
Mr. A. T. Grant, of Davie
county, who was recently ap
pointed census supervisor for the
seventh district, has Resigned as
a member of the Legislature.
He has represented Davie in the
House for several terms.
The State University now re
ceives $75,000 annually from the
State and its total income last
year from this and all other sour
ces was $146,000. The payroll
is now $lOO,OOO annually and be
sides this it requires $50,000 for
general msintenance.
The State Board of Agriculture
will, at its December meeting,
select a location for a new State
test farm to be located what
is known as the old bright tobac
co belt, including especially such
counties as Durham, Granville,
Forsyth, Surrey Stokes and oth
ers.
The ten oil inspectors—one in
each congressional distniafc are
now at work and are sending
samples of oil to the State De
partment of Agri9ulture for an
alysis. Some of the samples are
not up to the standard but the
companies are given until the
20th of this month to get rid of
the oil below the standard.
Retarders of Progress.
How Strang that the greatest
opposition to local bond issues or
special taxation for improvement
of public schools, for building
good roads or for other local bet
terments should almost always
come from those who pay the
least tax and, consequently, bear
the smallest part of the addition
al burden. Such is the case,
however. This fact is well illus
trated by the Lexington Dis
patch, which asks why should a
man who pays absolutely no tax
except 45 cent on the poll array
himself against taxation for good
roads? It cites two instances in
its home county of the absurdity
of opppsifeion by the taxpaver to
such taxation. It says that a
few days ago one citizen asked
another how he stood on the
township roads question. The
latter answered that he was op
posed to anything which would
increast the taxes. Inspection
of the tax books showed that
man paid five cents road tax, and
the Dispatch says were the pro
posed tax rate put at* the maxi
mum limit of 20 cents that man's
tax wouldnot exceed seven cents.
"The same man," says the Dis
patch, "was asked how *he had
voted in the graded school bond
election, and he replied that he
ivd voted against the school,
l.ie tax books showed that he
pays ten cents school tax. He
admitted that he sends four chil
dren nine months in the year to
the graded school."
It is just such citizens as this
man who stand in the way of lo
cal improvements and thereby
retard grogress. Their general
opposition to 3uch measures is so
well understood that it is to them
the leaders of the opposition in
contests for bond issues or spe
cial taxes by popular vote appeal
and on them rely for defeat of
the propositions. The instances
cited by the Dispatch are not
isolated ones. On the contrary
they are within the rule which
governs men's actions in nearly
every election of the kind. The
men who will have to pay the
heaviest taxes are the strongest
advocates of additional assess
ments for improvements, and
those who are affected the least
in this manner are the most vio
lent opponents. —Charlotte Ob
server.
Fight Over Office.
The Republicans, in the State,
have another fight on over office.
A. E. Hoi ton wants to succeed
himself on District Attorney for
this district. He has had it a
long time, and has made as good
officer as any of them can. Mr.
S. B. 'Adams and Mr. Rollins al
so want it. Adam thinks he
ought to have it, because of the
services he has rendered as State
chairman. Rollins wants it, and
he is Judge Pritchard's choice.
Holton wants it because it tastes
good. So they have it.
Cook says he did it. Peary says he
did it, but the chances are neither one
did it unless he tool Hollister's Rocky
Mountain Tea. It is the most search
ing and finding remedy —there is no
doubt after taking—as sure as you take
it yQu get results. Do it tonight.
