CHANGES 111 STATUTE LAW
WORK OP THE LEGISLATURE
REVIEWED AND IMPORT
ANT ACTS NOTICED.
i Despite the fact that the session
of the legislature, which adjourned
this month, was charged with being
unprogressive, an examination of
some of the laws enacted proves that
it was constructive and forward
looking. Many people, no doubt,
are glad that it did not have the idea
of what is progressive that some pol
iticians profess to have. It was, in
fact, a sane progressive body.
This article is designed to convey
to its readers information as to
changes and additions with respect
to the body of the statute law of
North Carolina, especially that part
of interest to people generally.
Those who followed the sessions
of the general assembly closely sin
gle out the following four acts as
the most important:
1. The state-wide primary for
all political parties on the same day
applying to candidates for all state,
congressional, judicial candidates, to
candidates for state senators, and, in
many counties, to all county offi
cers. It will apply to every candi
date for every office in this county.
2. The Anti-Jug bill. This
means that no person can receive by
express more than a quart of whisky
and five gallons of beer every fifteen
days.
3. Act creating the state high
way commission.
4. Act creating the state fisher
ies commission.
An act of interest to most people
was that providing ?an appropriation
of $20,000 to purchase the summit
of Mt. Mitchell and preserve as a
state park the highest peak east of
the Mississippi river.
The state was divided into two ju
dicial divisions, so that judges in the
eastern part of the state will rotate
in the first ten districts and those in
the western part will rotate in the
11th to 20th districts. Judge Lyon,
who is holding court here now, will
not be here after July 1 unless he
comes to hold a special term.
Judges Peebles, Bond, Daniels, Ad
ams, Whedbee, Cooke, Allen, Devin
and Rountree will not appear here
in the future. Judge Justice will
hold the fall courts here and Judges
Carter and Ferguson will be here
next year.
Among the acts of interest to the
farmers is that providing for Rural
Credit Unions, a progressive step,
which to be fully understood re
quires a study of the bill and the
subject.
Another of like interest provides
for the organization of Land and
Loan Associations, which will be to
farmers what the building and loan
associations are to city folks.
The name of the school for ne
groes here was changed from the
Agricultural & Mechanical College
to the Agricultural & Technical Col
lege. Heretofore in sales of real estate
under mortgages and wills the sale
is not kept open for a higher bid
after the auction; now, however, it
must wait ten days and if a suffi
cient bid is received the property
is readvertised. A sufficient bid is
ten per cent, increase if the highest
bid at the sale was $500 or less, or
five per cent, if in excess of $500.
Four amendments to the consti
tution will be voted on in 1916, as
follows:
1. Restricting local, private and
special legislation.
2. To prevent delays in trials by
providing emergency judges.
3. To prevent special charters to
corporations by the general assem
bly. 4. To prevent special charters to
cities, towns and villages.
These were among those submit
ted last year but went down in de
feat, along with the other proposed
amendments on account of the tax
amendment and the opposition to
the latter.
The pensions for Confederate Vet
erans their widows were increased
$4.00 in each class, so that the pen
sions by classes now are $76 $64
$52 and $36.
Candidates for license to practice
medicine may be examined on behalf
of the course before they finish the
other half, so as to make the exami
nation lighter for them.
County commissioners were au
thorized to call bond elections for
school districts under certain con
ditions without further legislative
authority.
County commissioners are author
ized to provide for treatment in hos
pitals of poor people at the expense
of the county.
A bill was enacted to provide ex
pert cotton graders for the state.
Wholesome amendments to the in
surance law and for the protection
of forests were adopted.
The first Friday in November was
set apart as Arbor day, when the
school children will plant trees, etc.
It is made criminal, to speak or
write anything that in effect charges
a bank with being Insolvent or
causing a "run" on; any banking in
stitution. The public school law was not
amended to any considerable ex
tent. r
Provision is made for the regis
tration of farm names. Guilford
farmers wishing to give their farms
a distinctive name and protect their
products may comply with this act
and prevent themselves against un
fair competition.
Sheriffs and their deputies may
now subpoena jurors and witnesses
by telephone.
It'is a misdemeanor to give a pv
son under 17 years of age a drink of
intoxicating liquors.
To prevent the spread of hog
cholera, all hogs dying a natural
death must be buried two feet un
der earth.
Where a judge issues a rule for
contempt on account of remarks or
newspaper articles as to his fitness
to hold office he must make it re
turnable before another judge.
Architects must be examined by
an examining board and obtain li
cense before they can practice in
the future. Those now engaged in
the business may pay the fee of $10
for enrollment and will not have to
stand the examination.
A probation system is provided
for juvenile offenders. The county
commissioners may appoint a proba
tion officer.
In the future those who enter the
state hospital for the insane and are
able to pay for the treatmust must
do so.
Bills of lading may be offered as
evidence in cases against common
carriers.
Women may be appointed notaries
public. The Supreme court will soon
pass on the constitutionality of this
bill.

one notice at the court house and

TmAV AND NUBIA IN
HANDS OF DERVISHES
nerlin, March 20. It is declared
that the whole of the Sudan, and
also parts of Nubia, are in posses
sion of the Dervishes.
The statement of the traveler giv
ing the information are published in
the Berlin papers. He describes also
an engagement near Fashoda last
Deceraber, in which General Hawley,
of -the British army, and a number
of other officers, together with al
most 2,000 men, lost their lives.
A story of alleged uprising of the
Senussi tribesmen' in November was
described. He says they destroyed
an Australian camp near the Pyra
mids on November 10, killing 200
Australians and capturing many
guns ant: provisions. Lr.ter, in large
force, not less than 80,000, they
overflowed the entire province of
Fayum and destroyed all railroads,
including the Cairo-Assuan line. De
cember 1 they destroyed the Alexandria-Cairo
railroad near Daman
hur. Thousands of tribesmen respond
ed to the appeal of the Dervishes and
on December 13, 40,000 of them
marched in the direction of Fashoda,
on the White Nile, where General
Hawley opposed them with 6,000
troops. Of the men under Hawley
all the naval soldiers deserted to the
Dervishes, leaving him with only
2,000 men. Most of this contingent
was killed, and General Hawley and
all his officers fell. Nabur-El-Asl,
commanding the Dervishes, had all
his prisoners decapitated.
As a result of this victory all the
navy chiefs joined the Dervishes,
who on January 1 took possession
of the important military post at
Naser, in the district of Sennar.
This information declares further
that the Dervishers destroyed all
telegraph lines in lower Egypt. N
word of the conquest cf Sudan has

Paint
Paint half your job Devoe; paint the other
half whatever you like. If Devoe doesn't take
less gallons and cost less money, no pay.
The cost of putting it on is about two-thirds
of the job.
If Devoe doesn't wear a year or two years
or three years or four years longer distinctly
longer and better we'll give you enough to
do it again.
But we warn you how it will all turn out. The bes
half of your job will cost you so much less than the other
half, and wear so much better too, that you'll never divide
it again.
You won't get your paint free, you'll get
what is better. You'll know Devoe; you'll
know strong points; you'll know weak points,
and the question is settled.
