Publisher. j Enter id at the Postqffice in m Wilkesboro assecondVclass matter. - 4. ! ' ! j j WEDNESDAY, JAN. 14, 1891. f We note with pleasue the el ection otMr; R. A. Doughton, of AIL ?ghany, to the Speaker ship o : the House of Represen tative . . It was a deserved compl iment to a worthy man. Mr. Doughton is well fitted for the position, being ;an experi enced safe andsound legislator. The S jeakership of the House could not have been placed in better hands, or given to one I more Worthy to recieve it. The Chronicle congratulates Mr. Doug lton and the people of the State upon the selection . of Speaker. Liegislator, JonfrQ. A. rvan, is not eniovine: himself at Raieigh as he shouldJEe is so "1 rghfolutin" down ther.e that le objects to associating with lis party. His seat is sit uated next to the seats of two prom nent members of his, the Repu jlican party. That is, his seat is next to two negroes. John is mad about it. He and the n 3groes had a few words aboui it, John trying to get them to move and the negroes tellint him that if he was above his pfrty for him to move. They say John raised a racket in the House about it the other day, and is threatening to leave the Legislature if things aint (ihanged. It is bad that a felloe will try to get above his party; just because he has been electfed to a little office. Weftrwo got te&r-xhe other fello v got there, and of course that left us, Our friend Pell is Reading Clerk of the Senate we are notr There are reasons for this. We I did not ecieve enough votes to be noin nated; Pell did. Another ; that made against us was thin that Pell agreed with the ma joritjy of the- Senators in I their vie"W of the matter; we did not. That is, Bro. Pell and a majori- tyb-f the Senators were hon of the opinion that he estly (Pel ) was the man -for the place, but we honestly .believed that they were mistaken.1 But thej j wouldn't hear to reason r that is, our j reasons and when it come to a vote! they downed us. They decided that our services were more valu. able upon the Chrqnicle than at the Capital. But we hearti ly appreciate the efferts of our friends who voted for j us, just the same. Wei congratulate BroL' Pell upon his success. The General Assembly. The General Assembly of North Carolina met on last Wednesday and organized and are now at work.; The caucus es of the two parties were held on Tuesday night before. ! The Democratic one was fully attended.- There were not many to attend the other. -"N- The officers of the twojhouses are as t follows: j Senate Lieu tenant Governor, T. Mi Holt, President; R. M.fFurman, chief cletk;. P. Pell,? Reading clerk; Miffe Bradshaw, engrossing cletk; J, H. Hinnant, principal doorke'eper; A. M. 'Noble, assis tant doorkeeper: House R. A. Doughton speaker; J Mi Brown ch ef clerk; H.: .A. i Latham, rei ding clerk; A'. H. Hayes, en gr )ssing clerk; i H. E. King, pr: ncipal doorkeeper; G. L. Kil paxrick, assistant doorkeeper. The farmers largely predom inate and it is . properly cal led, the Farmers Legislature, and it is composed generally of a fine looking set of men. Al though Farmers - Alliance, we A5 STB if there has yet been a a.1 Assembly in which General there were a heavftr h.its greater number of tor more stylishly dressed members. They recog nizee that 'when in Rome they may do as Rome docs' with out predjudiiing the interest of thd country. Upon the whole, so far as wo 1 were able tp ascertain," with perhaps a very few exceptions the present Assembly is a body of conservat ve men, and noth ing may be expected 'of them but conservative legislation. There are perhaps a few mem bers who art extremests, but tha majority may be depended upon to sit down upon any rash or uncalled for legislation. That is ouropinion. It is largely a now1 Legisla ture. They .are however a goodly number of experienced leaders in both houses. Upon the 1 .Thole it is an ex- ce lent Legislature. SIDE-TRACKED. -The Federal-. Election bill, commonly known as the "Force bil" which-ha- occupied the at tention of the"US. Senate ever since it began its present ses sion, was aliruptly side tracked on Monday Jan. 5th. Eight Re mblican Senators, from states west all of them of the Mississippi River, assis ted I5y the D'cmocratic Senators voted to displace the Fore Bill and take up in its stead the Financial bill to prevent a con- traction of the currency. The made by Mr. Stew motion was art of Nevada, a Republican,! aud it is scarcely possible to por ay the doubt surprise and disap-r-A -JoliniiCn' l" "ddui, iim i . i i Jliurchilt, W.S. WckkI.J. T. Ivhvard?, depicted on the,M ...... JT M.. ... ' intment conutenances of such partisan demagogue s and monopolistic tools as Granny Hoar, Evarts Edmund and others from the strictly nor hern and New En land states. It is said that the Republican Senators who were not in the secret were taken entirely unawares and their mortifaction was absolutely painful to behold. They wcrej entirely confidents that, before! another sun should set, their in-j famy would bo completed byj the passage of the Force Bil but there were enough Senators in Republican ranks unwillin to submit to slavish gag law ;q provent them from carrying ou their nefarious undertaking. j It .is a fact worthy of com ment, that the Republican Sen? ators voting with the Demof- crats, were an irom strictly agricultural states, which proves that they knew their coustituens and recognized and obeved their wishes, and interests. Again has that staj wart yeomanry which centuritts ago gave an impetus tc En glish supremacy and afterwartf attained American freedom, asserted itself, and through iis representatives put down ttifs patent attempt at tyranny and defeated the aims of those au tocratic demagogues, whose on ly wish is to secure political supremacy and self aggrand izement, though it should inter fere "with the individual liberty of millions offreo "men, and place them under the surveil anco of federal bayonets. ' . The keynote and purpose of the Forcq Bill was' soundeti by Senator Hoar just'after it3 de feat, whep talking,with a friend he said': !'That vote means the thoideatli of thol Republican party," ailmittin'that the till was a purely partisian measure, intended to perpetuate Republi canism nd nothing more. Immediately after the motion totake'up the Financial bill was carried, Mr. Stewart in- j Urodueed an amendment nro- . yiaing for the free coinago of silver which undoubtedly will be cained. If it is made a law vo may expect the present Stringency in money matters to disappear at an "early day. Senator Hoar admits' that the Vote on the 5th clearly indica ted that the Forco bill is gone glimmering, and now .mourns in his defeat at the head of 'salt river." f The eight Republicans voting fwith the Democrats were Mesrs ;Stanford of California, .Shoup and McConnell of Idaho. TeU lerand Wolcott of Colorado, Jones and Stewart of Nevada, and .Washburn of Minissota. The most unkindest cut of 'all" in the eyes of Hoar Ed- Imundsand others bromulgators of the Force bill was given by the Senators from Idaho, who were rushed- to Washington post haste to voto for the bill and one sworn in that very morning but they unhesitating ly helped to lay aside the par tisan measure and voted in favor of the peoples interest. The South especially should rejoice to find, that there are a fcw lepublicau Senators in congress, "who regard man hood and honesty more highly, than inXamous partisanship.
