Wa bare the pleasure to announce
that tha. entertainment will be repeated
tonight. It la one of the rare and beau
tiful exhibitions that I most be seen to
ha appreciated The muaio was excel-
aToa-Taxpayera.
If any on wUl take tha trouble to
azamlaa tha tax liat of Craven county
aad aota tha an paid taxaa ha will ba
ooeae diagnatad with a government that
pratenda to have juat lawa and equal
righta aad privileges to all citizama
alike. There ia a privileged claaa ia
Craven county a claaa that refuaa out
right to pay their taxes; their property
paaaas the ordeal of a sham aala by tha
sheriff once a year for taxes, tha tax
payers pay tha eoat af the aale and that
anda it. This privileged claaa have their
houses and lota in thia city which bring
a good rental; they receive the rents
but bid defiance to tha law; refuaa to
contribute to the support of the govern
ment which they enjoy, and thus cause
their fellowmen to be exoesslvely
burdened.
The time has come when tha county
commissioners must comply with the
demands of the people and make all
pay their taxes. There ia enough due
the county on back tcuce to pay the
floating debt. Can any good reason be
given why a parson owning a good
houae and lot in tha city of Naw Barna
should not pay the taxes thereon as well
as hia neighbor who owna a house by
his aide?
It ia the boast of our government that
our Constitutien recognizes no privi
leged class. But the administration of
tha laws in Craven county does rec
ognize euch a class. They are allowed
to hold property without paving one
cent of tax.
The thing has gone to that extent that
we believe the taxpayers an masse of this
county would be justified in refusing
to pay another dollar of taxaa until the
collection of the back taxes has been
enforoed. The officers of the county
should be forced by public sentiment to
colleot taxaa from all and abolish the
privileged class. The law-abiding
people of the county can do this if they
will. In tha above wa do not mean to
be personal; we are speaking in general
terms of a great grievance that has been
berne too long.
