There is division of opinion as to

It is said that the figures will show
that the total amount of taxes from
all sources collected in Greenville
for this fiscal year will aggregate
nearly If this is so the
tax collector and treasurer will make

This fact is leading many people to
the conclusion that the pay of
these offices should be changed from
a commission basis to a salary, and
the salary be made no larger than
the work is worth. A general dis-
of this matter between now
and the next town election might
save a good ram to the tax payers.

The Chicago Chronicle wants to
know how long it will take the
democratic party to live down the
candidacy of William It. Hearst and
what extent is a party under
whose auspices such a candidacy is
possible entitled to popular respect
and That is easy
enough. Hearst's candidacy is not
under the auspices of the democrats.
He is simply aspiring, as an
dual, to office. He seeks tho demo-
nomination, but has not re-
it. The democratic party re-
this as a free country, and
recognizes the right of any citizen
of the country Jo office. It is
regarded as a worthy ambition
suppose that the blackest and
most ignorant in the country
has a right to seek the nomination
for President at the hands of a re-
publican convention, and we doubt

temporaries will venture to go so

taken. We consider it a matter of

Mr.
As the time is drawing near for
the nominating convention, I will
ask yon to permit me to nominate
through your columns Sam White
for treasurer of Pitt county.
He was a candidate before the
last democratic convention and
came within a very small fraction
of a vote receiving the
then. He was and is eminent-
qualified for the position. Since
that convention his ability to man-
age business especially finance
has become still more manifest to
people, and at the coming
there ought not to be any
difference between democrats as to
the nominee for treasurer. Lei us
nominate Sam White by .
Mr. J. B. Cherry has de-
c-fined to and it seems to me
that the man who was close a
to the man who has been
treasurer of Pitt county so long,
should now receive the unanimous
vote of the democratic convention.

administrator bring no suit against
the railroad and that Capt. Bur-
roughs promise that the wife and
four be provided for.
The request was made on the train
as e dying was being

a tear in his Capt. Burroughs
