(Ledger-Dispatch.)
With all the abandon of Napoleon
the German Emperor has thrown down
the gauntlei to Europe while all the
vorld wonders. Germany is prepared
to fight the entire world in defense of
her honor, he told the Reichstag, and
with an utter disregard of treaties, in
ternational law of Hague conventions,
he draws the sword against practical
ly the whole of Europe.
He declares war against Belgium
n order to justify his violation of tfte
neutrality of that country, and invades
Luxemburg in open disregard of every
onventionality.
Well may th eworld wonder at his
reckless audacity, and well may Eur
ope shudder at the devastating power
of the "war lord" :'n armour clad, but
it is impossible to see how Germany
can escape the awful consequences of
such bewildering rashness.
No cne questions the loyalty of "my
armies" nor the unusual ab'lity of the
Emperor and his army and navy offi

Lets Have His Reasons.
(Greensboro News.)
If Chairman Travis, of the state
corporation commission, is so sur
that the adoption of the taxation
amendment would be a terrible blund
er, he should at least come out into
open and tell the people of the state
why," insists the Mount Olive Tri
bune.
'Give us a reason for the faith that
is in you, Mr. Travis. The reforma
tion of our system of taxation, which
s to be accomplished through the pro
posed amendment to the constitution,
is of tremendous impuortance. Mr.
Travis has no moral right, therefore,
to throw the weight of his influence,
by reasons of his position, against tins
great reform without going into the
merits of the proposition, as Mr. Wil
liams of Buncombe, chairman of the
finance committee of the last general
assembly, who is support'ng th
amendent, has so ably done through
the medium of the press."
It would be a terrible blunder if any
thing should come between Chairman
Travis and the $500 a year he draws
as ex-ofhcio chairman of the state tax
commission, which is, in the humble
but useful vernacular, a cinch.
