2 awtitions were sent forward, rend by their titles and referred to proper com mittees. Among those new bills wore the fol -1 owing: To create a Code Commission. To repeal Fayetteville dispensary law. To repeal the Flection law. lo repeal law for electing magistrates. To pay judges of election in certain counties. Te amend Article 10 of the State COll - To pay officers and State witnesses when no true bill is found. To fix the maximum number of em ployes for the General Assembly. To request Congress to establish two light-beacons in Pamlico Sound. The amendment proposed to the Con stitution (Article 10, Homesteads and Exemptions) is to reduce the personal property exemption from s.">oo to S2OO, and make the value of the homestead SSOO instead of SI,OOO. Mr. Botishull's Code Commission bill provides for a commission to collate, di gest and revise tile public statute laws of the State, upon the same plan as that adopted by the last Code Commis nion. Their work is to be submitted to the next General Assembly for its appro val. No commissioners are named in the net, neither is the salary fixed. They are empowered to appoint a clerk, and the Secretary of State is directed to supply them with such books as they may require. During the consideration of the calen dar, four resolutions were adopted, six bills were passed on third reading, two on second rending and eight bills on the calendar were referred to proper com mittees. Among the bills passed the only one of importance was that providing for in creasing the number of commissioners in Edgecombe county from three to five The Board of County Commissioners is authorized to appoint the two additional commissioners at their next meeting arid they will hold office until the next elec tion. After that, five commissioners shall be regularly elected every two years. i The debate of the day was on an act to repeal chapter lift. Public Laws of 181)7. This law. for whose enactment Col. •lohn 8. Cunningham, of Person county, as said to be responsible, provides that fire insurance companies shall not charge a higher rate on risks than is charged in Virginia. Mr. Gilliam, of Edgecombe, the author of the act to repeal this law. said that there was no way of enforcing such a statute and it had made North Carolina tlie laughing stock in insurance circles He had taken the trouble to investigate and he had found that there was no fixed rate in Virginia. Mr. Foushee, of Durham, opposed the proposition to repeal the law. Its en actment, he explained, had boon secured Ly Col. Cunningham, who lived on the North Carolina-Virginia line. He had property on both sides the line. Previous to the enactment of this law he had paid one-half i>er cent, more on h : s North Carolina property than he had on ltia Virginia property, a hundred yards or so away. Since the law complained of had been put on the statute books he had been paying the same in Nortli Car olina ns in A irginia. Thp law, lie said, had compelled the instance companies to reduce their i*tUra on farm property in this State, and he therefore appealed to the Legis lature not to repeal the law. Mr. Hoimnii, of Iredell, also thought the House had better go slow. There was need of some legislation restraining insurance companies, since all competi tion among them is surpassed by one great trust or corporation—the South tern Tariff Association. Tustiee, of McDowell, explained *» that influenced the comiuit -'uding the passage of this ‘‘♦ee. lie said, did not ‘ion on fire insnr -1 to rates, but oper way, and omeboily would prep. *ll to do that he would » Mr. Leai-. of Swain, agreed with Mr. Jus, a the view that it put us in au unfavorable position to make Virginia our standard as to rates. Mr. Stevens, of Union, was unwilling to repeal the ipw until he got something better. Insurance rates, he said, were fixed by the South Eastern Tariff Asso ciation. Mr. Willard, of New Hanover, said the bill was absurd as each company in Virginia had a different schedule of rates and that in some parts of Virginia the rates were higher than In other sections. “If the Virginia rate is applied to North Carolina will you take the higher rate or the lower one? The law is absurd. If you want to regulate rates you can’t do it by such a law—a sort of go-as-you please act.” Mr. Hanson, of Mecklenburg, opposed repeal, and expressed the opinion that the law had been productive of some good and certainly of no harm in this State. Mr. Holman, of Iredell, moved that the bill be referred back to the Cominis tee on Corporatins. Mr. Ib mntree had doubts as to the constitutionality of the law, if tested in the courts, and he therefore favored ref erence of the bill to the Judiciary Com mittee. Mr. Craig sun no reason to refer the bill. The law, be said, seemed to him a useless and a senseless one. He wanted no acts to compel enforcement of Vrginia laws: he wanted a North Carolina law, and as for him. lie was willing now to pledge himself to vote for some law to put reasonable restric tions on fire insurance companies. Mr. Justice said the law was without form and void and darkness was upou the face of it. “Now it is said there is no law in Virginia regulating the r ites and yet we ate binding ourselves by Virginia. If there is a law in Virginia, eau’t we make as good a one here?” Mr. Patterson, of Robeson: “It seems to me that this law hurts no one and it is stated that it has helped some. Then why repeal it? When we get something better, then it will be time enough to talk about abolishing that which we already have.” Mr. Council, of Watauga, thought it the proper tiling to refer the bill back. If the House would do that and the committee could prepare a better hi!) he would vote for it. Otherwise lie "should vote to keep the present law on the statute books. Mr. Robinson, of Cumberland, said no one was being hurt by this law apd he proposed to do all in his power to keep it in force until lie got a better one. j Mr. Gattis, of Orange, said lie was in favor of letting the law stand. Hej knew Col. Cunnningham. through whose; personal efforts the net had been passed. He knew that he had been benefit ted by it and liis* neighbors bad been helped ~ indeed till the people living nloug the Virginia line in North Carolina had been j helped by the law. and lie for one pro pcsed to stand by it till lu» got some thing better. Mr. Gilliam couldn't see bow the law could be enforced. It was conceded that there was no schedule of rates in ( Virginia; the rates were fixed by the tariff association, and the low was in , effective, foolish and useless. Mr. Russell, of Carteret. < wanted the Jaw to stand until he could get a bet ter one. The bill was recoinmittted to the Com mittee on Corporations by a vote of 40 to 50. The next matter to claim any con siderable portion of the time of the House was a Dill to regulate the number of employes for the General Assembly. This bill prescribes the number of employes no follows: Principal clerk in the House, four as sistants; in the Senate, three assistants The reading clerk of each body may also be called on tq, assist. Engrossing clerk in the House, one as sistant: in Senate, one assistant. If other assistants are found to be necessary the Legislature may order their employment, but all such shall re- j coive only $2.50 a day. Not more than nine laborers in the House shall be employed and six in the Senate, not including mail carriers and j stationery keejvers. Numl*er of pages in the House, ten:! in the Senate, six. Mr. Brown, introducer of the bill, explained that its object was simply to carry out the pledges of the Democratic caucus in regard to thin matter of em ployes. He thought it would not be a bad idea to have the number of em ployes limited by statute so that suc ceeding Legislatures may at least have to go to the trouble of repealing a law before it can swell the number of employe*. | Mr. Williams, of Iredell, said the enu-j cu« had fixed the number of pages at nine—one from each Congressional dis-J triet, and he should oppose the propo-' sition to make it ten. Mr. Council said it had been found ne cessary to appoint one boy from Raleigh in order that messages might be nentj to places in the city, the other pages from the various Congressional districts not being familiar with the city. On motion of Mr. Williams the bill' was referred to the Committee on Prop ositions and Grievances. Isaac Smith, the colored member from Craven, explained and urged the passage of bis bill to pay officers and Slat * witnesses in cases in which no true bill.was found. He said State witnesses often come a long way, being compelled to attend, and spending several days n* court, on personal expense. Then if no true bill were found the witnesses le ceived nothing. The law he denounced as “unjust and rotten and the result of, fusion.” j Ou motion of Mr. Justice, the bill was referred to the Committee on Salaries and Fees. SUMMARY OF THE DAY. Twenty-nine New Bills and Four New. h Resolutions. Following is a summary of the day's work in the House, showing the new j bills introduced and the disposition made! of the hills on the calendar and those reported from the various committees: PETITIONS PRESENTED.

Resolution instruct- j ing the North Carolina Republicans and Senators in Congress to secure an ap- eedge u* power.” There is • kind of knowledge that is power and prestige in the hands of a woman. It is the knowledge of hr*j awn nature, her own physical make-up and N. tlie home - treatment diseases pecu rTL liar to her sex. / There is a great / *~J home medical book that teaches ‘ffc all this. It is Dr. *3 Wk Pierce's Common \ e nse Medical - -4 ■ i Adviser. Over t. 200,000 American homes contain copies of this work. It used to cost Si.fio; now it is free. For a papes- covered copy send 21 one-cent stamps, to cover mailing only, to the World's Dispensary Medical Associa tion, Buffalo, N. Y.; French cloth binding, 3* stamps. This great book tells all a!>out a medicine that is an unfailing cure for all weakness and disease of the delicate organs di-tinctly feminine. That medicine is Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. During the past thirty years many thousands of women have used it with marvelous results. It imparts health, vigor, virility, strength and elasticity to tlie organs that bear tlie bur dens of maternity. It fits for wifehood and motherhood. Taken during the period of gestation, it makes the coming of baby easy and almost painless. It completely ban ishes the pain and misery that are the re sult of a woman’s neglecting her womanly health. An honest medicine dealer will give you what you ask for, and not try to persuade you to take some inferior substi tute for the little added profit he may make thereon. Mrs. Jas. Schaffner of Freemancbiirg, North ampton Co.. Fa., writes: “It is with pleasure that I write to let you know the great good I have received from your medicines and the local self-treatment at home. I was troubled with female weakness, had pains in my back all the time, sometimes so severe that I could not tie in bed at night. I tried different doctors but they could not heip me. Then my husband got Or. Fierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser, and induced me tc try Dr. Fierce’s medicines. After taking six bottles of the • Favorite Prescription ’ I feellike a new woman."

Tlie House Committee on Elections net at 4:30 o’clock yesterday afternoon n tin* Supreme Court library and re timed the hearing of evidence in the nse of Dees vs. Paul, from Pamlico •ounty. %. The case was opened by attorney for he contestant Dees, followed by counsel or the contestee Paul, Messrs. A. D. Yard and 11. L. Gihlfc, of Newborn, rep •esented the contestant and Win. E. "larke appeared for the contestee. Tin* contestant based hs claim to the eat on the following facts shown by lepositions: I. That the recount ordered by court bowed Dees elected by a majority of '5 votes. 2. That two illegal votes bad been minted for Paul. 5. That in one precinct (Grantsboro) 7 allots for Dees had been thrown away ind not counted because they were in he wrong box, but three for Paul in vrong box were counted. 4. That the voting at Bayboro was Ilegal, being held in a manner contrary o law and that the count was not such is is contemplated to secure a fair •lection. In rebuttal of these charges deposi ions were produced to prove: 1. That the recount was not a fair >ne, the boxes having been tampered vith. 2. That the election and the count of he vote at Bayboro was fair and ju t. The reading of the depositions and he argument of counsel consumed about three hours. At the conclusion of the ease the vote vas taken nml it stood 0 to 2 in favor if Dees. Those voting against Dees mid they didn't think either of tlie nen entitled to the seat, but (bat th r.* night to be a new election. The manner of getting rid of Jim Young’s name now on the corner-stone* >f the School for the Blind has a* ast reen agreed upon. The Committee on Institution foi Hind at a meeting held at the institu ion. requested Mr. Bonshall. of Wake, o prepare a bill providing for dressing he face of the corner-stones to th tow buildings, placing thereon tin* dtu* if the founding of said institution and he date of erection of those new build ngs, and providing for placing within he buildings, at some suitable place, a ablet bearing the names of the hoard >f trustees, upon whose motion plans voro made of these buildings, as stigges ed in the resolution offered by Mr. Bon hall. The like committee of the Senate vas invited to sit in joint meetings with the committee of the House. At the meeting of the House Judiciary •onunittee, in the Supreme Court library vesterday afternoon, a most interesting liseussion arose over the question of a reduction of fees allowed for the regis tration and jirobate of chattel mortgages and lien bonds. Mr. Allen, of Wayne, on Monday in troduced a bill providing a short form *f chattel mortgage to secure an existing lebt and a lien to secure advances to lie made and to prescribe the fees there, on; providing a short form of chattel mortgage to secure supplies and to pre scribe the fees thereon. It was during the consideration of these bills that the “fee discussion” arose. The present fee for registering the above instruments is $1.05. but as Judge Allen’s bill very materially shortens and simplifies them he fixed the fee for registration at 50 cents and the probate fee at 10 cents. Some of the comm ttce thought this too much, and Mr. Ray. of Macon, offered nil amendment making the registration fee 20 cents and the jirobate fee 10 cents. This amendment was strongly supported by Mr. Brown, of Stanly; Mr. Stevens, of Union; Mr. Clarkson, of Mecklenburg; Mr. Foushee, of Durham, and others. Opposing it were Mr. Winston, of Bertie; Mr. Gattis, of Orange; Mr. Justice, of McDowell; Mr. Robinson, of Cumberland; Mr. Rountree, of New Hanover, and Mr. Gilliam, of Edgecombe. The discussion waxed quite spirited, the members of the committee from the smaller counties, ns a rule, contending that the registers of deeds hardly got enough out of lheir office to live, whil * those from the larger counties averred that the registers were getting rich registering 'chattel mortgages. Finally Mr. Ray changed his amend ment to read 35 cents for registering and 15 cents for probating and the amend ment was adopted, though several mem bers of the committee announced'that they would in the Hons*? contend for a smaller fee. To prevent this discussion in the House and a consequent waste of time it was .decided to hold up the bills for a day or two to see if some agreement icon Id not. bo reached by the whole commit tee. At this meeting the amendment to tlie Code offered by Mr. Justice, in regard to not allowing testimony of certain per sons ns to transactions with peojile who have died, was discussed and referred to a sub-committee consisting of Messrs. Rountree, Justice, Council, Allen and Craig. Also Mr. Ray’s amendment to the Code making bastardy a criminal action was referred to a sub-committee com posed of Messrs. Ray, Hartsell and Rob inson. The bill prohibiting fast driving pver bridges in Gaston county will til's morn ing be favorably reported. XEWBEBX’S WHITE PRIMARY. Mr. Frank T. Patterson Will Re* tin* New Mayor of the City of Elms.
