The Legislature should by all States for the levying of an in- means propose an amendment to come tax. The Senate had pass- j the State constitution prohibit ed it two weeks ago by a vote . ing the Legislature from wast of42 to 2, and last week the j ing so much time in local legis tj ccori it hv vote of RS ! lation. This was recommended to 4. It was voted for by Re publicans as well as Democrats. The proposed new county of Piedmont was defeated in the House by a vote of 54 to 42, and so its promoters will have to bide their time and wait for some future legislature. By a vote of SO to 9 the Senate passed the bill to create Avery county out of parts of Mitchell, Watauga and Caldwell, and it is thought that the House will also pass it. If the House passes the bill, which has passed the Senate to create Hoke county and also passes the Avery county bill our State will' then have an even hundred counties- It is to be hoped that this number will not be increased in many years. The committee has reported unfavorably the bill to reduce to two cents a mile the fare on rail roads that refuse to "pull mile age" on the trains. It is not thought that this bill will be passed and it ought not to be passed. The committee on pensions has reported favorably the bill in troduced by Gan. J: S Carr to appropriate $10,003 towards the erection in the capitol square of a monument in honor of the wo men of the Confederacy. A sim ilar bill has been passed by sev eral Southern States, and such a bill vas passed unanimously by the House in the last Legislature un l was defeated in the Senate by only three votes on the last day of the session. Gen. Carr made . a most patriotic and elo quent speech in behalf of his bill. We hope the bill will pass, in troduced by Senator Martin . of j Buncombe, to allow married wo men to make'con tracts the same as unmarried women, as recom mended more than once by the Supreme Court. When it came up in the Senate last week it was postponed until this week.-And, by-the-way, this Legislature has a habit of postponing too many bills, which is not to be coni mended because it will create a congestion near the close of the session. ' . . By a unanimous vote the joint committee of the Senate and House on appropriations has voted in favor of the bill to issue one million dollars worth of bonds for the construction of the pro-, posed administration building at Raleigh. This bill is maae tne special order at noon today in the Senate, and its passage seems probable. We much regret to see the in clination of so many of our legis lators to let down the bars for easy divorces.

Kitchin, among other amendments, in his message at the beginning of the session, and it is earnestly hoped that his re commendation will be carried out. The need or necessity for such an amendment to our constitu tion has become more apparent since the Governor's recommen dation than even before, because this Legislature has passed more local bills than any previous one and of the most in.signifieant character that do not at all con cern the general public, and most of which could better be attended to by the county com missioners. In order to illustrate the in significant character of this lo cal legislation we publish the fol lowing as some of the bills rati fied, having passed both houses, on last Friday: ' 'Protect trout in Yellow creek, Graham county. "Relative to fishing in Watau ga county. "Amend squirrel law of Guil ford county. "Relatiye to raising quail in Rockingham county. "To protect game in Bladen county. "Protect quail in McDowell county. "Amend game law of Chatham county. "Relative to hunting quail and wild turkey in Moore county. "Allow read improvement in Cherokee county outside incor porated towns. "Protect deer and squirrels in Hyde county. "Regulate hunting in Orange county. "Relative to hunting in For syth county. "Relative to hunting foxes in Chatham county. "Pertaining to drainage of Clark's creek, Lincoln county. "Regulate fishing and hunting in Burke county. " The above are only some of the bills ratified on one day, and there is no telling how many will be passed before the close of the session. Now. what interest has the general public in any one of the above-mentioned laws? Why coulfl not all such local mat ters be attended to by the local authorities instead of the State's money being wasted in their pas sage?. All such local bills are passed as a matter of course when introduced by the Senator or Representative of the county affected, and they are usually no better qualified to judge of their necessity than the county com missioners would be, and cer tainly the members from other counties know nothing as to their necessity. and Democrats in Washington. Early in the present week Sena tors were hopeful that they might solve the problem by let ting the reciprocity agreement severely alone, but later it was brought sharply to their atten tion that unless there shall be a vote on this reciprocity agree ment they will be called back to Washington promptly after the 4th of March and compelled to remain until there is an express ion in the Senate either for or against it. And now the Presi dent is away from Washington making speeches mainly devoted to this reciprocity with Canada question and there is a strong impression that the country, ex cept in isolated spots, is in favor of the agreement recently made between us and our northern neighbor. The fast that the English pa pers and the leader of the oppo sition in the English Parliament are opposed to the reciprocity agreement between Canada and the United States will doubtless have some influence in favor of its approval by Congress in this country. It will be many years, perhaps centuries, before the United States and British Amer ica become one country, but the dividing - line must some time fade just as the Mason and Dix on line has faded. There are a hundred reasons for the com mercial, social and political so lidarity of North America. There is not one valid reason in opposi tion. There is no possibility of the absorption of Canada by the United States or the absorption of the United Stales by Canada. Absorption is not to be thought of. bat comrneice between the two countries ca.-:ht to be as free and unrestricted as between Ohio and Indiana. There is opposing vote in the Senate ..to Senator Cui!oms project authorizing a Lincoln memorial. The form of morial has not been decid There have been suggestions oi a boulevard connecting Wash ington and Gettysburg, also a ptoject for a triumphal arch like che Arch of Triumph in Paris or its prototype in Rome. There is also a project to have the mem orial to occupy the center of the great plaza stretching from the u:apitol to the union station. The appropriation tor this monument is two millions, but it is possible that this sum will be added to before the memorial is completed. WMppbg Post Bill Vetoed. Salem, Ore-, Feb. '13. Gover nor West has vetoed a bill adopt ed by the legislature abolishing the whipping post. ' "While the whipping post is a relic of barbarism," said the erovernor, it is no more barbaric than wife-beating and-1 deem it wise to have on Oregon statute books a barbaric punishment for brutes who fall so low as to strike and abuse a woman. " An effort will be made to pass the bill over the governor's veto. in fact, with all nations, was ad- attractive widow had come here vocated by both President and ; from Chatham and shipped her bpeaKer-to-De : unamp Uiark in stirring addresses at the opening sessions of the Pan-American Commercial Conference today. Champ Clark, who had just left the House of Representa tives, announced in his address amid loud applause that the test vote for immediate consideration of the Canadian reciprocity bill had been won by the administra tion: Turning to President Taft, he said laughingly; . "That's a document which the President and myself own in partnership. But speaking for myself, not for President Taf t, or any one else, I am for reciprocity-not only with Canada, but with all Southern and Cen tral American republics. In fact, I'm in favor of reciprocity with all nations of the earth. My principle is that honest trade never hurt any nation yet.'' - THE PRESIDENT'S TALK. "The last speaker and the next speaker and I," said President Taft. who followed Mr. Clark, "have gotten together on one plank of the platform; we're both rather heavy men and I hope it'll support us. It's a great pleasure to be with him in the promotion of trade in one part of the world ( Canada). He's in favor of reciprocity in all parts of the world and so am I, but that doesn't help much toward a definite agreement. We'll all vote for wise measures but when it comes to determine what meas ures are wise, there's a differ ence. In anticipation of his com ing to be head of the great pop ular brneh of tHe Legislature we have already gotten together on the most important matter and I hope that we can carry it through."

He had gone to his barn to get one of his teams off to dg do some hauling. When he left the house he told his , family that he would be back in a short time for breakfast. Shortly after he went to the barn one of his sons-in-law passed along and found him dead near the wagon.
