P! - . chase Tax. Great Deal."' ' . " . ; .- Liquor Agitation. Balelghan. Mlh, 1904. Two monster petitions have been pre sented to the letUlature bjthtmetchtste oTNorth Carolina and aext Friday they are to have a hearing before the legtala tlve committee. One petition baa five thousand aignatares end asks for the enactment of a law for garnishment or tome other strong method of collecting debts. The other pettJon has seven thousand signatures, of merchants and ski the repeal of what Is known at the Merchants Purchase Tax, this being a tax which ii levied upon the amount of purchase and which the , merchant claim l really a double tax and hence unjust. Tab Merchants Purchase tax has been a subject of much Interett all over the country and It teema there was tuoh a tax nowhere else but in North Carolina. The Retail . Merchant A oclation cf the State ha takes up both these matter and will present the pet! tlont , 260 representatlre member! of the association to be present The state auditor bat recommended the repeal of the part of the revenue act which levies the tax upon purchases and there Is very strong pretiure outside of the merchant for such a course. Liquor regulation legislation I re ceiving a very great amount of attention at the hand ol tbe legislature and the importance of the matter led to the coming here of Democratic State Chair mae Simmons, from Washington In or der that there might be a full conference in regard to the whole subject. Borne score of bill have been Introduced and others are to come, but the Democratic caucus will very ful y decide upon the course to be put sued. The religious de nomination joining with the Anti-Saloon League and together these form a most powerful organization to sweep liquor out of the state. There will not be a general prohibition law, thla state ment belng'made by person In a posit ion to know, but there will be law very considerably extending the prohi bition area, which now covers almost exactly fonr-fltths of the state. There will be an Increase la tbe number of dispensaries, bet thl will not be large. While the dispensary system it thought to be much superior to the open saloon. yet It has some strong opponents. Oae of ths great objects la the liquor legisla tion Is to take that matter entirely out of the hand of those who have played upon It for political purposes or who would attempt to do to. The tame view prcTsils In regard to the question of the publlo education ef the negro.-Of course there are extremeUt who do not want' the negro educated at all. GUARANTEED BT F. S. DUPPT.
