Mr, Brown opposed the pasage of the, bill. He
was opposed to increase .'the expenses of the igovern
. inent with the expansion of paper m ney. He had ob
strvfd that salaries thus increased during high prices
; never were diminished , when prices fell,1 aim such
measures necessarily tended to the inauguration of
extravagance and corruption iu the government !
Mr. Outlaw responded that it was a fact eridont to
every one that it was impossible to meet the expenses
of living in Raleigh with thej?r diem now allowed,
and he was confident that the people of North Caro
liua neither expected, nor desired their representatives
to serve them in the Legislature at thir owu expense.
He did not wish to make money out of. the Sate, on
' the contrary he was willing to require menibors to
-state their actual-expenses, and be paid accordingly.
At the present per dum members,. could not defray
' expenses without drawing ori their own resotitces.
