The House Refuses to Grant Mr. Lamb a Three-Mile Limit. There was a pretty lively fight in the 'House yesterday morning over the Eliza beth City ferry. The facts seem to he about this: The ferry is owned by Mr. E. F. Lamb. It was chartered about ninety years ago, the* charter giving three miles limit on each side- in which no other ferry could be operated. Two years ago the Legis lature cut the* limit down to two miles, to conform to the general law of the St/ite in regard to ferries. When this Legislature mot Mr. Lamb asked it to restore his three-mile limit. A hill for that purpose was introduced and yesterday came up in the House for pa ssage. It was supported by Mr. Roushall, of Wake. Mr. Abbott. of Camden, Mr. Winston, of Bertie, and Mr. Carrawny, of Lenoir. Mr. Leigh, of Pasquotank, opposed. Mr. Leigh said the ferry grossed the river about two miles and a quarter above Elizabeth City, and is the only fer ry within eight miles of the city. The owners of it, he said, had been exer cising this monopoly for 100 years. “Up to two years ago the law prohibited the establishment of any other ferry within three miles of the present ferry. This prohibits the building of any other ferry at all for the reason that when you get clown three miles from Mr. Lamb's fer ry the water is so rough you can’t main tain a ferry there. "The present ferry road is in miser able condition. The proposed ferry is backed by men of large capital and will open right at the foot of the main street of the town. The toll wall he reduced just ,one-half. The granting of a three mile limit would make it impossible to put in another ferry. The general law is two miles. This three-mile limit is special legislation. The people want an other and a better ferry. They want competition. The ferry is getting worse all the time. Beside the railroad is so near the ferry road that it is dangerous. “The people ask a ferry franchise in order that they may have competition, better service and cheaper rates. The> want better and more convenient travel to Elizabeth City. That they want it is shown by the petitions of 300 people that have been sent up here and presented to this body. The refusal to grant this prayer would retard the progress of this growing town and deny to the people what they consider a right and simple justice. Mr. Bousliall, of Wake, vigorously op posed tile proposed ferry. He argued that the people of Camden didn’t want it. Mr. Leigh replied that he thought the people of Camden were the best judges of that. Mi-. Abbott, of Camden, said he re gretted to have to speak In public, but he thought the occasion demanded it. “I can sit down on a log and talk to a man three days and nights hut in a public assembly—that’s different. “I place this question on the high ground of a moral obligation and equity. lam taking the same ground I took in the Senate six years ago. I have been per fectly consistent in this thing all tin way through. The passage of this bill will confiscate Lamb’s property. It’s not right. I'm not trying to shape my course in order to get back here. I don’t want to get hack. I left here in IXO3 re solved never to return. I was con scripted this time. T'-c law under which Mr. Lamb oper ated from 1810 to 1874 was under the three-mile limit. The charter gives him the franchise for one hundred years and this Legislature or any other Legislature will do wrong to take it away from him.” Mr. Win stop, of Bertie, said lie had been reliably informed that Mr. Lamb paid SB,OOO for this property and there was now a mortgage of $3,000 on it. Mr. Leigh: “And he makes $2,000 a year on it.” Mr. Winston: “I don't care what he makes, right is right and it’s not right to destroy this man’s property. To do so is to take advantage of tne faith and credit lie has placed in tin- chartered rights granted by North Carolina.” Mr. Boushall and Mr. Carraway also made speeches in favor of a restoration of the three-mile limit, and Mr. Leigh replied, opposing. The vote resulted in 33 votes against Lamb and 42 for him. Later in tin- session Mr. Abbott lodged a motion to reconsider. THE HOUSE PROCEEDINGS. A Bill Introduced By Mr. Bousliall For Removal of the State Arsenal. The House met yesterday at lb o’clock and was opened with prayer by Rev. Hr. Curtis, of this city. Mr. Overman was in the* Speakers chair. The Journal of Friday was read and approved. Report* of Standing Committees were made as follows: Judiciary—By Craig, *>f Buncombe; Fousbee. of Durham: Carroll, of Ala mance; Bryan, of Madison: Hartsell. of Cabarrus: Clarkson, of Mecklenburg; Carr, of Duplin; Nicholson, of Beaufort: Brown, of Stanly; Currie, of Moore; OASTORIA forlnfataairiCftldfm *fe Kind You fare Always Bought Allen, of Wayne; Council, of Watauga; Stevens, of Union. Finance —By Willard, of New Han over. Claims—By Noble, of Jones; Council, of Watauga. Fish—By Welch, of Chowan. Federal Relations—By Leigh, of Pas quota ilk. Corporations—By Gilliam, of Edge combe; Carr, of Duplin. All of the eight jM-titions presented, with one exception (petition asking the repeal of the Merchant's Purchase Tax), related to local matters, principally the incorporation of school houses and churches. Among the bills introduced were the following of general interest and im portance: By Boushall, of Wake: To remove tin- State- Arsenal from Capitol Square. By James, of Pender: To prescribe a standard scale for measurement of tim ber. and require all lots of timber of more than 1,000 feet to be inspected by the lumber inspector. By Nicholson, of Beaufort: To pun ish vagrancy by thirty days on the roads. By Winston, of Bertie: To punish fornication and adultery between ne groes and whites by jail imprisonment of not less than four months or peniten tiary imprisonment of not over five years, and make it a felony. By Williams, of Grimm: To punish tin- carrying of concealed weapons by a fine of from $3 to sl3 for the first offence, and from sls to S3O for each subsequent offence. By Lentbenvood, of Swain: To amend section 2,32(1 of the Code, by continuing for twelve months, instead of six, the presumption of negligence in eases against railways for killing live stock. By Currie, of Moore: To amend sec tion 1. chapter 24X. Laws of 18X3, so that the unsupported evidence of the woman shall not he sufficient to convict in seduction eases. By Willard, of New Hanover: To al low the Governor to appoint a naval aide, with the rank of commodore. By Carr, of Duplin: To change the time of holding certain courts in the Sixth district. By Ho man, of Iredell: To give to the Legislature flu- appointment of State librarian: the law to be effective two years hence. By Stevens, of Union: To provide for the punishment of pools, trusts, con spiracies and combinations, by providing that any purchases of any articles made or sold by a company belonging to a trust, shall not he liable for the price of the goods purchased. And this act may be pleaded as a defense to an.v actions for recovery of the same. Only three hills were passed on the third and final reading: To publish sketches of North Carolina troops in the Civil War. To make cruelty outside of the State, and one year’s separation cause for di vorce. To permit Cabarrus Savings Bank to establish a branch bank at Albemarle. Stanly county. A road law for Macon county passed its second reading. The bill providing for a restoration of a three-mile limit for the Lamb ferry at Elizabeth City was defeated, after an hour’s discussion. Speeches were made on the hill provid ing for publication of sketches of the North Carolina troops by Messrs. Wall. Carraway and McLean. When the Macon county road law came up for passage quite a discussion arose over a section providing for the printing of 200 copies of the act. at the State's- expense, to be distributed over the county of Macon. Mr. Holman, of Iredell, objected to it on the ground of the expense—saying that if it were done in one ease it would have to be done in all and there’d la no end to th'w sort of printing. Mr. Justice, of McDowell, raised the same objection. He said it was a bud precedent, and that a similar section had been stricken out of several other bills of the same kind that the House had passed. Mr. Ray, of Macon, contended that the < <tst would he very trifling, and that if his people waited till the laws came out the law would, so far as this year is concerned, be absolutely a dead lotto:. The House adopted an amendment al lowing the printing, lint taxing the coun ty of Macon with the cost of such print ing. Tiiis nitter disjKised of. the House adjourned till 10 o’clock Monday morn ing. During the day leave of absence was granted to the following members: Speaker Connor; Messrs. Hooy, of Cleveland: Hartsell, of Cabarrus; Hen derson. of Mecklenburg; Nicholson, of Beaufort, Holland, of Wake; Lyon, of Granville. PETITIONS PRESENTED.
