3&1 (f-Vi'-iis- TUU11SDAY, Juu. 10, l'JUl. K. A. LONDON. Editor. Thk (leueral Assembly of North Curoliua convened iu the State Capitol, at Kaleiyli, yesterday. The Senate was failed to order by Lieutenant-Governor Key nobis, and tlit roll of the Senators-elect being called nearly all were pres ent and were sworn in. Mr. A. J. Maxrtell, the editor of the Kock iuham An.Ljlo-Saxon, was elected principal clerk and C'apt. James It. Smith, of Fayetteville, was re elected principal doorkeeper. Tlio House, was called to order I y Mr. Drevard Nixon, the prin cipal dork of tlio last House, and members were duly sworn iu. Hon. Walter I'. Moure, of Jackson county, was elected Speaker, and Mr. Nixon was re-elected clerk. There were nut as many candi dates as usual for the Legislative olliccs. It will be several days before the various committees are ap pointed, and no important busi ness can be done until then. The white people of North Car olina are doing their full duty iu paying taxes for the education of negroes, as is showu by the re cently published otlieial report of J ion. C. 11. Mebane, (he State Superintendent of I'ubiic Instruc tion. Aeeu.ding to this report the white people paid last year !57ii,S77."J"2 on propciiy ami polls for public school purposes, ami the colored people p . l-1 ;: 7 e.T " J 1 '. which in half a million lioila;-. !.- . than the taes paid by t'.e v, iiii.-s. hi the ai'poniounie.iL ,, ; , . lic school fund wliii.i and col. :vd children share alike the childn n of cue a race i ecu ing the same amount per capita. Supainicu dent Mebane says that the "'negto race has received over three fiims as much as it paid in." With these otlieial figures, which cannot be controverted, we repeat the assertion that the white peo ple of North Carolina are doing thoir full duty in paying ta.es foi the edueatiou of negroes. And yet they receive no credit or t.li'vnks for so doing. It is noyfmdcr tin a that many wl'Ati' " people, while wilhngto'pay more taxes tif nec essary) to educate v. hite children, are uot w illing to pay more taxes for educating negro children. Few persons are aware of the amount now paid in North Caro lina for public school purposes. According to Superintendent Me-' bane's report the amount paid last year was over a million dollars, the ctucl figures beiug sl.OH.l li Cl. This is twice as large an amount as was required some years ago for all the expenses of our State government, and shows what progress our State is in ik ing iu removing the stain of illit eracy. The cheekiest thing that we Lave read lately is an editorial in a llepullican paper warning Un people of North Carolna against Democratic extravagance iu the administration of our State gov ernment. It is like Satan rebuk iug sin, and auy Republican talk ing about Democratic e:.tr.iva gauce in North Carolina must have the cheek of a government mule. The only time that the 1! publi cans have had control of every department of tear State govern ment was from iSds, to lSo, and never iu our State's history has there ever been such wasteful ex travagance as was during those two years. Not only was Repub lican rule iu North Carolina con spicuous by its unprecedented e. travagauee, but was disgraceful hy its many frauds and neu e. irrup tion. No man can deny this, and yet a Republican paper now warning the people, that they may now " look for a:i era of extrava gance, the like of which has never been known in the State!" The Democrats pay the bulk of the taxes that defray the expenses of our State government, and therefore they are more interested in saving every expense than the .Republicans, the majority of whom are negroes who pay very little tax. And, if the Democrats should be extravagant like the Kepubli e.'i'is were, lln-y would be extrava t'aut with ciihlly their own money, whereas the Republicans were ex travagant with the money chiefly paid by Democrats! I The Hoard of Aldermen of Kal eiyh, on last Friday night, adopt ed an ordinance to line anv person one dollar for spitting on the side walk iu that city. The adoption of this ordinance just the week befoie the Legisla ture met is very significant. Doubtless it was lroiu fear that our law-makers from all parts of the State might spread deadly diseases at Kaleigh by their spit ting on the sidewalks, it is to be hoped that they will have the change convenient, when they for get and spit, and that none will hive to be put to work on the streets lo pay their lines!

How thoroughly Senator Han.na domi nates the Republican steering commi! tee of the Senate is showu by the threats of a cloture rule for the Senate, if there is any at tempt to iiilibuster against the ship subsidy or the Army reor ganization bill, that have tome from that committee since Con gress convened. Whether those threats can be made effective will depend largely upon the backbone exhibited by Republican Senators who are opposed to both bills.
