T. R. B. ' ' :
Raleigh, March. 6. -"We look to you
aid God for "Western .Training School,"
read the telegram received by Repre
sentative J. Prank Ray from Dr.
George T. Winston, one' time presi
dent of the A. & M. College and now
a resident of Ashevllle.-.
"Me and God tooth on the other side;
kill failed," was. the reply sent by
Macon county's representative, and
that briefly, tells the tale of the was-to-be
Western Training School.
A surprising amount of opposition
developed to the proposed school. Both
f the small schools now doing so. ex-
cellent a work -in the Western part
f the State seemed to think their very
existence was threatened by the es
tablishment of this greater education
al institution, and -their friends got
busy and kept busy all the time. Thfe
appropriation committee refused to
Make any provision-Whatever for the
school. Buncombe's and Henderson's
privilege of voting a seventy-five and
ne hundred thousand dollar bond Is
sue to aid the school will not be ex-
ercised at least not immediately and
right now. . . 7 . .
Work Overtime . ;
While : strenuous , efforts; were made
last week to clear the calendar: of all
bills" by "Satur day v nighty it was early,
apparent that at least two day's time,
would have to be given, the state free
by its legislators.. .A quorum of the
faithful signed an agreement to . re
main until Tuesday at leastand a re?,
selution adopted; Saturday night pro
vides that no adjournment shall be
taken until every bill, is disposed of.
This would take until. the end of the
week. Resolving and doing are differ
emt, however. .
This gives Speaker Dowd an, op
portunity to carry, but his determina
tion to clear the calendar before ad
journment.
There have been 2110 bills : intro
duced. Of these 1133 have become the
law of the State up to this date. It is
impossible to give even a partial list
of the more important measures until
after the assembly , has adjourned,
when the clerks of the house and sen
ate will put in many, more strenuous)
days completing the record of legis
lation. " - ' "
Some Good Talks.,
Friday and Saturday of last week
were notable for the many, really fine
speeches heard on ' the floor of the
house. The . $60,000 appropriation for
the new Feeble Minded Institute,
while it was opposed by some of the
leaders, seemed to -inspire .its advoH
eates with a firey and -.effective zeal
and the crowded galleries heard Some
really fine speeches. The State pri
mary law, defeated in the House on
Saturday, turned the dignified assem
bly upside down again for a couple
ef hours and the remarks made by the
konorable gentlemen were pointed and
calculated to hurt. The opposition of
the Western members killed the bill.
There is still a good chance fpr the
Torren's land registration system
opposed by the lawyers and there
fore a good - thing for everyone else.
The Senate has passed the bill.
Ewart Gets, His.
Turlington's , anti-trust law went
through the house with, a whoop. It
is an admirable measure, calculated
to withstand the most energetic attacks
of the trusts' ablest attorneys. Ewart
f Henderson, of course, ' opposed Its
passage, and would have ' had the
ouse adopt his bill, reported unfavor
ably by the committee,' but Mr. Tur
lington's measure designed to curb
the trusts, without any hair-brained
and impossible provisions, was adopt
ed almost unanimously, after a- spirit
ed debate.
Turlington never gets - excited. He
is one of the finest talkers in the as
sembly. He is even, - well modulated
voice flows smoothly and steadily, and
his keen-barbed shafts are sent under
Ms opponents, hide without any rant
ing or roaring. During the discussion
of the anti-trust law he . slipped a
few over to the gentleman from Hen
derson that should last him a while.
Ewart has been the Raleigh corre
spondent of the Henderson county re
publican organ, and a close- and a lm-.
partial reading of his'Mitefary efforts
leaves the Impression that there is no
legislature in session here, pnly Ewart
was here. But he was very much here
r that is, according to the aforesaid
literary -contributions in which he ac
cused the general assembly of being
incompetent, of playing politics, of
wasting time, and of every other crime
almost. That is, you know, every mem
ber did these things except "Ewart?
who, you were left to understand, was
the whole and complete show by him
self.;- . . - .
- Well, Turlington, after reading ex
tracts .from these self -glorifying and
self-commending literary efforts, ac
cused the gentleman from Henderson
of writing them. Here you will observe
a tiense and "distinct silence on . the
part 'of the gentleman from Hender-
son. In other words, he has nothing to
say. Turlington then -wanted to know
who had frittered away the time of the
house, who had killed more -golden
minutes, .who had talked more and on
more subjects, than the gentleman
from Henderson? He said that Ewart
had stood on the floor; of the House,
and while disclaiming all partisan
ship had spent all his time trying to
advance' the interest of the Republic
can "party. Getting really warmed up
to his subject the able house leader
thn- proceeded .to' flay, the; gentleman
from Henderson in - a most -painful
manner. It was distressing and annoy
ing to have your real motives laid bare
to. axurel world, to have the mask 08
fairness and -sincerity : torn away, to
De, proved the author ;! of self-glorify-
ing and selt-commending newspaper
articles, to be truthfully accused of
double-dealing with your colleagues,
to be told that you preach patriotism
and practice' partisanship, and so on
and so forth. Really, you know, it's
quite embarrasing, and when the vote
was called on the measure the ayes'
sounded like into' the roar ' of many;
angry waters. Mr. Ewart left ' the
House shortly after and departed for
Hendersonville on the 4:05 train
Shipman's Recommendation. ,
The rural life schools bill, aij admir
able law, i3 safe', but the proposition
to combine the Department of Agricul
ture and the A. & M. College under
one board of twenty men to be ap-r
pointed by thQ governor will not pass,

While there are. many members who:
believe the state Is justified In going
into debt and issuing bonds for many,
purposes, the House leaders, includ
ing Speaker Dowd. are not amongst
them. The old soldiers may get a UU
tie more money, but not much. In fact
there was spirited opposition, to the
$60,000 appropriation for the new
feeble-minded asylum, but to the glory
of North Carolina let it be said that
opposition was soon demolished. .
Monday, and Tuesday, and possibly
Wednesday !will be devoted to state
wide matters almost exclusively. What
private public bills are still "on the
calendar will soon be .disposed of.
The house met at 9 o'clock Mon
day morning, and with only the nec
essary, recess, for meals kept at it all
day long and up to twelve o'clock at
nieht. With little: debate on the differ
ent measures it- is possible" to get

- Would it not be a good Idea for all

It has been said that - there are

railroads:' "I won" don' believe in

as early a date ps possible as I recog
nize the necesssity.for better mnii fa

It seems that the people are now re
alizing the truth of the statement made
by me heretofore to the effect that the.
bill auhorized, the erection of a post
office building, but failed to" appropri
ate the money there for.
The talk now of the necessity of
electing a Republican, two years from
now in order to get the appropriatioB
will have to be -changed later, as I exl;
ptct to "get it before that date. Why
they jdld not get the appropriation at
this present' session now '. closing is
surpassingly strange, and- demands
much explanation. .
I, hope that my Democratic friends
will remind the Republicans that I es
tablished eleven R. F. JJ. routes in
Henderson county, paying to the
county $10,000 annually, giving hun
dreds of families daily mail. ,Mr.

MR. BARROWS RESIGNS.
f . R. Barrows, associate editor and7,
business manager of the Hustler has
resigned his position with the com
pany, but he retains his financial in-
ly associated with ; the - Hustler-com-- ;
managed for the. past year.r
Mr. Barrows resignation will' come
as a surprise to many of his friends
wtiowill regret very . much ; to see him--go.
During his connection with this5
paper the town has made many ,
changes towards advancement and .
many of Mr.' Barrows prophecies of the :
town's growth . -have - been - realized.
Mr. Barrows is one of the ablest writ- -ers
in the state. As a booster the. '
Hustler has been" favorably comment
ed on both far and near. If was Mr;
Barrows ; who pushed the pen and 1
throughthe Hustler it is safe, to say
that many people have been convinced f
enough to visit ' thecity.v . .
At a meeting of the -directors last
week Mr. Barrows' resignation was ac-
cepted and Gordon Garlington waff
elected "business manager. ; Mr. Gar
lington has had active charge of the
