In most of the northern states it is still possible to get up a first-class row between republicans and demo crats, and, therefore, it is not neces sary to get opposing factions of the dominant party at swords' points. . "But in the last few years the north has been getting almost as strongly republican as the south has been democratic; and with this de velopment there has been growing demand for the primary system of nominations. The public demands the privilege of a "scrap", and if it can't be had between the parties, then It Is wanted within the ruling party. ' "Laterly there has been a good deal of criticism of the popular pri mary laws of southern and western states. Especially has that of Ore gon been brought under the guns.

Dr. Dixon's plaa for reform in the present system, of tax assessment in this state hag orffsioned much fav orable comment. tThat there is need for reform no one will deny. We quote from some of our contemporar ies on the subject. The Charlotte Chronicle says: "North Carolina has long suffered under an inadequate system of tax assessments. The burden of taxation is not equally or equitably divided. Some-people' pay-more than their share, 'while others pay Jess than they ought'Jto pay. ; The pubjec is now receiving serious consideration and Dr. Dixon, the state auditor, who real izes the necessity for reform in tax assessments will submit a plan to the; related to the movement for the eon- esting material ami is 'exceptionally strong in fiction. Besides a further long instalment of Hall Cuine's ; re markable new serial, "The White Christ," there is a delightfully hum orous story by W. W. Jacobs called "Prize Money," which will cause many hearty laughs. Another diverting story is Arthur Morrison's "Filer the Faithless." Horace Annesley Vachell, Ellen Thorneycroft Fowler, Mrs. Bland and ; E. Nesbit also contribute some excellent stories. The articles are as diversified as ever and include such widely; different subjects as "Bridge Blunders, or Hands that Went Wrong," "The World's Best Puzzles," "Some Queer Champions," and a sup erbly illustrated account of southern Delubere, and romantic and beautiful English estate of Mrs. Ratcliff. Harry Furniss continues his "Comic Side of Crime," and there are articles dealing with aids to memory, hunufn musical instruments, and queer Jrapery figures. as well as a paTter fntitlfefl ""Wonldn't i It be funny if '.' a question which can only be answered by reading the article. An innovation this month is a colored section dealing with the Lon don stage. In which portraits of the eight mpst popular actresses at present on the London boards are given, to gether with "shadow" pictures of the plays in which they are appearing. The Wide World Magazine. The Wide World for January con tains a number of interesting stories from all the corners of the earth, and a perusal of it is an education In it self, for it instructs one in a knowl edge of geography in a way that Is wholly 'delightful. ".The current num ber covers a wide area, giving us In teresting stories about Montenegro, Belgium, Algeria,. Alaska, South Africa, America, the Philippines, Australia, and many other parts of the world. That the facts contained In this magazine are of a highly edu cational value is proved by the heads of many colleges having taken is as a school textbook. One of the most in teresting stories in the January num ber is by A. P. Taylor, chief of de tectives, Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands, who gives In narrative form the his tory of "the most disastrous voyage in the annals of the United States transport service." The sleumslilp "Siam" left San Francisco with a car go of three hundred and seventthree picked army horses and mules, destin ed for "the front" in the Philippines. She landed two mules alive at Manila. In this narrative Mr. Taylor, who was a passenger on the ill-fated vessel, tells what became of the remainder. J Review of Reviews. The January Reviews of Reviews Is noteworthy for its treatment of topics of the admirable presentation they 'are' given in th'a delightful magazine.

He will recommend that one man be appointed (not elect ed) in each county to assess all real estate and that the counties be grouped in districts, the various as sessors to meet In district conferen ces, compare assessments and make their reports to the state board of equalization. Dr. Dixon declares that this is the only way in which the assessments of real estate in North Carolina can be made equitable. He says the last legislature enacted a law which proves inoperative be cause it only gives 80 days In which to assess all real estate aud the work cannot be done in that space of time. The . passing of a law whereby an equitable ' iitt ' assessment or the state could be secured, will be one of the mot Important duties of the next legislature and the matter' is one that calls for thoughtful consideration on the part ot the members of that body. .
