The House committee on public service corporations decides to re port unfavorably the bill of Repre sentative Morgan, making it a mis demeanor for a railroad agent to pull more than the number of miles of mileage from a book in issuing tickets between points, the punishment being 11,908 fine and Imprisonment.

Senator Emole's bill - to prohibit selling of quail and mountain pheas ants In North Carolina far two years will be reported favorably by the House committee on game, but Rep resentative Turlington will offer an amendment to allow freeholders to sell birds shot on their lands, and if that fails he will offer the amendment for his own County of Iredell.

Sewerajro System to He Installed Be fore Xcxt Session Begins Heating Otieatlnn to Be Considered IJc-Vane-Sinith Murringe To-Nlglm Special to The Observer Davidson, Feb. 8. Complete plans and kpecitlcatlona lyne been received at the president's office for the jro j oned suwerage syKtem for the col iCRe. It Is believed that before the ! nlng of the September term the e;, stein will have been Installed.

Meantime the ground floor is warmed by the open grates and the auditorium where chapel is held Rues BILL AGAIN BIDERED. Representative Dowd's measure to restore to superintendents of Btate Institutions the nominating power in the electing of officers and employes was again before the House com mittee on propositions and grievances, having been re-referred after the favorable consideration received sev eral days ago. There was consider able discussion and It looked as if the committee, had won out at one time, but there was not a very full committee, so the matter was de ferred. It was brought out by Rep resentative Williams, of Cabarrus, that he had heard that employes of the school for the deaf and dumb at Morganton who had testified before the investigating committee some time ago asainst the Institution had been promised Immunity from the loss of their Jobs by the committee, but that nevertheless they had all been discharged. Representative Cooke, of Camden, had been a mem ber of that examining committee and said that no such thing had been promised those employes. Mr. Williams seemed to voice the senti ments of those against the bill when j he said there was no criticism of the institutions unaer tne preeeni sys tem, with no power of recommenda tion In the superintendent, so why re turn to the old plan when there was critlrlam under It. "Without prejudice" will he the verdict from the committee on agri culture of the House on the forestry exchange. They thought that some time In the future this bill mignt do a good thing for North Carolina but insisted that Just now tne iepnon business In the State Is In too experi mental a stage to warrant such re strictions. They rnfnlmised the alle raiir.ni nf frank abuses and re garded such cases as decidedly the ex ception. The committee held two ses sions, afternoon and nlgm, anu uui into executive session to slaughter the bill. THE SENATE. The senate was convened by Lieu tenant Governor Newland at 11 o'clock.

Prof. Glddlngs says Primitive Man Had Them We're Better Tliau Rome. New York Sun. Columbia's 1190. 000 lecture course given on the Henry Bergh foundation for the promotion of humane educa tion began yesterday with an address CONTENTION OF ROADS. The burden of the argument of the opposition was that with the railroad companies It is purely a question of, accounting and instituting a rheck lng system that will mlnlze losses. They scorned the Imputation that th regulation had been Imposed as a piece of spite work to make the com promise rate unpopular. The system has, they insisted, been In opera tion for eleven years In the most pop ulous siectldn of the L'nitod States and In these territories is now accepted without oppositioi. They explained, the detail of the passenger mileage and ticket systems much as explained repeatedly In the newspaper publica tions by railroad officials In defend ing the system; detailed the abuses It prevent and outlined the vast and in tricate machinery entailed on the rail roads by the Interchangeable mile age system, making it clear to the committee that the only way a rall- roadcompany gets any credit for haul- fey Franklin H Glddlngs. professor iag the epasaengers Is by the return 2 w -JV Co!um', on Th In- ! of the mileage slip to the railroad that tlces in Human Civilisation.'

SOME TALK Nashville American. If the North Carolina and Virginia pa pers are not too provincial to appreciate any but home-made poetry, this sample from The Tarson's Journal Is confidently submitted aH worthy to rank with the finest outbursts of a muse not artificially or even antlclpatorlally Inspired: "Tes. the Prohl's have cut off our whisky. Yet we're with them; their pralaes we sing; And we'll drink to their health In cold clabber, When 'reddy' comes 'fresh' in the spring." "Reddy" snd the tall, wobbly-legged calf are In the foreground and that Is the editor who Is drinking out of the churn over by the spring-house. The picture is a pastoral that Is very appealing. BROI'CHT ON. Mr. Rascoe moved that the House In committee of the whole discuss the fish bill to-morrow night at 8 o'clock. After a little discussion of this motion Mr. Morton made the point of order that the House had no authority to go Into committee of the whole except on the revenue bill, lie moved It be made a speclsl order for consideration by the House next Friday. There was more talk. The bill as amended by the committee Is on the calendar with majority report favorable and a minority report. The greater part at the Ashing counties are exempted In the amendments, and as usual a spirit ed fight Is on. It appears Somebody said the minority signers of the report were the ones added to the fish committee af ter the main 'eport had been decided on, and somebody else denied it. and so on. Mr. Rose was allowed to Introduce a bill out of order, to encourage high school establishment in Graham and Clay counties. The State hill for tho drainage snd reclamation of swamp and overflowed lands, on being laid before the House, was deferred until next Monday, on mo tion of Mr. StuhhH, to be printed In tile meantime. Mr. Mitchell, of Wayne, o(Tred a res olution that the House hold a night ses sion at 8 o'clock Wednesday und every night thereafter until the calendar is cx hauaed. Mr. Dougliton moved to sus pend the rules and adopt the resolution Immediately. Mr Green proposed to amend that the House meet at 10 o'clock every morning. On Mr. Morions sug gestion the resolution was referred to the committee on rules In regular course, he assuring the House that It would re ceive Immediate attention. Mr. Weaver asked consent to Intro duce a bill out of order and it wa sent up, a bill to annex a portion of Little Ivey township. Madison county, to Hun combe. Mr. Grant reached his feet to object Just after the clerk had siamped the number on the bill. He called at tention to the uniform and constant neg lect of that rule of the House requir ing every member when Introducing a bill to give the House an Idea of Its con tents. When told It was too late to ob ject, he moved that the bill be returned to the gentleman from Buncombe. Mo tion tost on division. 86 to 32 Mr Grant wanted to know how a member could object' without knowing anything of the contents of the bill. The Speaker could only refer him to the rules themselves for Interpretation. BILLS PASSED. Bills passed third reading: Levy special tax for roads In Mitchell.
