In this connection it is interesting to note that the machine bosses in the State have selected one or more members for President Wilson's Cab inet. In North Carolina the Sim mons machine seems to have cap tured Mr. Josephus Daniels. Mr. Daniels, who had denounced th Sim mons machine and the monopoly in fluences, working for his re-election in the early part of the campaign, clerks, stenographers and laborers do The question of raising revenue toj not te permitted to draw pay for the The women believe the politicians have played a carefully studied trick! upon them, and the decision of the!

James; William Lowther, in response to an I inquiry by the Prime Minister, an- nounced that if any of the amend-j ments to the franchise bill giving! women the vote should be adoDted I he would be obliged to rule that they ! tinued make it substantially a new bill, which could compel its withdrawal! Mr. Asquith thereupon announced that the Cabinet had decided that under such circumstances it would be useless to proceed. This was an nounced to a crowded house which displayed more interest in the sub ject than had been shown in the last stages of the home rule bill. In the meantime police in great numbers, mounted and afoot, were having difficulties outside the build ings keeping the vast crowds in check, while reserve forces staHonpH in courtyards in the vicinity of Par liament were held in readiness to quell disorders of a more serious na ture. The suffragettes held heated meet ings to-night. Mrs. Emeline Pank hurst and other leaders denounced both the enemies and the supporters of suffrage in the Cabinet for their treachery. They declared an end of the truce which the women had ob served while awaiting Parliament's action on the bill.

At the Balti more Convention, the North Carolina delegation, which was strongly for Harmon or Judge Parker, or any Wall Street candidate for President, voted unanimously to re-elect Mr. Daniels as National Committeeman. Mr. Daniel3 is now being urged by these same monopoly influences as one of the Progressive members of the Wilson Cabinet. This is another chapter of the story that will be con- mK-t the State's ever-growing deficit is one that has been worrying the present Legislature. They have now hit upon a scheme to raise the money in extra taxes by certain constitution al amendments. Of course the reve nue and machinery act will tax things up to the constitutional limit. Senator Grant, of Davie, affered a resolution to the joint committee Tuesday afternoon that the Legis lature take no action at this time on the rroposed amendments, but that the Senate and House and the Gover nor appoint a committee to consider the proposed constitutional amend ments and report back to the next Legislature or to a called session of ; there would be some the Legislature.

Senator Jones introduced a bill by request to provide extra clerical help for the Supreme Court reported, and then spoke against the bill when it came up for passage. He said he had introduced it by request and had reserved the right to oppose it. An amendment by the Committee on Judiciary No. 1 reduced the amount asked from $750 to $400 an nually. Jones made a speech for economy and business methods in State affairs. He declared that the State Treasur er's report was misleading as to. the financial conditions.

Money had been appropriated for State institutions when it was not in the treasury, and he had been inform ed that the auditor would issue his warrant to an institution and it Y would be discounted at the bank.

Some of her lieutenants failed to agree with her policy. Miss Annie Kenny, one of the most prominent of the militants, advocated the smash ing of both property and heads. The executive committee of the Na tional Union of Women's Suffrage So cieties adopted a resolution rejecting Mr. Asquith's offer of facilities for a private member bill next season. A number of speakers said the women had prepared a plan of action which for the present was secret, but which would suprise the world. Several women were arrested to night, some of whom declined to give their names. One, believed to be Miss Sylvia Pankhurst, was captured in St. Stephens Hall, leading to the House of Commons, where she was making a determined attack upon a large painting. The police dispersed a crowd in Trafalgar Square, where a man and woman were trying to make speeches. The noted militant, Mrs. Despard, was taken to the police station with six thers. a copy, to a large extent, of the pres ent Mississippi law that is working wonderfully well, which is agreeable to all parties affected. Mr. Stewart's bill provides for a fine of $50 for thei violation of any of its provisions, while the Mississippi bill provides $100 as the fine in certain cases. Mr. Stewart said that tipping is immortal and is a system of graft and robbery. All North Carolina, Mr. Stewart said, is asking for an anti-tipping legisla tion. The bill provides that the giv er and the receiver of the tip shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. The measure passed its third read ing and was sent to the Senate for concurrence.

A dispatch from Decatur, Alabama, says: "Gilbert W. McCarley, a dentist of Priceville, 'was convicted by a jury to-day of attempting to hire two ne groes to kill his mother-in-law, Mrs. Delia Fennell. A few months ago McCarley caused the arrest of the two negroes, claiming they robbed him. Investigation resulted in the charges against him. Mrs. Fennell is said to be wealthy." The Long Staple in Cabarrus. (Concord Tribune.) More bales of long staple cotton were produced in the county this year than in any former year, the number being increased from three to 115. Flo we & White have ginned 109 bales, and have six more bales to gin. The cotton brought a good price, and on account of the success met with in producing it, the crop next year will likely be greatly increased. and was referred to the Committee on Federal Relations, upon the re quest of several Senators to have it examined. The bill relative to liability of com mon carriers to employes, applying the act of Congress to intra-State em ployes, came up with a favorable re port from Committee on Judiciary No. 2 and was passed. Senator Ma son vigorously opposed the measure. Monday. When the resolution came up in the Senate Monday that body voted to strike out the expression, "Whereas the protection of the liquor traffic makes the United- States an ally of the liquor criminals," from the joint resolution, as it had passed the House urging Congress to pass the Webb Kenyon bill to abolish the shipment of liquor into prohibition territory. The Senate eliminated this expression on recommendation of the Committee on Federal Relations, and sent the amended resolution to the Mouse for concurrence. Monday proved to be another good day for the pie hunters. The Senate voted that clerks be provided for the Committee on Appropriations and Ju diciary Committee No. 2. Mr. Wade Wishart, of Robeson County, gets the clerkship to the Appropriations Com mittee. The longest discussion in the House was on the Kellum bill for extend ing the age limit of consent on the part of a girl from 14 to 16 years. In the end it received a reference to committee, with amendment by Doughton for marriage of parties to stop prosecution, in which case costs shall be paid by the defendant. In dications are that the bill will pass. The most important bills intro duced in the House were by Hay more, to require express and railroad companies to provide for more speedy settlement of small claims oy pa trons; by Ray, to empower women to recover in their own right for dam ans for personal injuries, to regu latvwaterpower and electric light ing v mpanies. Tw Mils amending the State Con stitution' were offered in the Senate, both much to the same effect. The Ivie bill would relieve the General Democratic Legislature Has Thrown Their Economy Program in Waste Basket Xow Busy Dealing Out Pie to the Faithful. The small hope entertained that the present Legislature might depart from the long-standing custom of padding the pay-rolls with useless employes and thus lop off a wholly unnecessary and inexcusable expense, has gone glimmering. The Senate and House Committees appointed to look into the matter of legislative em ployes has made the following , re port: "We find that the rules of the Sen ate and House conflict in such a way that it is impossible to reconcile them upon the question of employing clerks to the various committees of the respective bodies. We therefore rec ommend that each body adjust the! question of clerkships to their respec tive committees under the rules of each body. We further recommend that no clerk be appointed by the chairman of any committee till the chairman ask for such clerk, and that the necessity of such clerkship be submitted to the members of the re spective bodies in session. "We find that there is now em ployed by the Senate eleven clerks and stenographers at $4 per day; fourteen laborers at $2,50 per day; ten pages at $1 per day. We find that the House has employed twenty-one clerks and stenographers at $4 per day; twenty-five laborers at $2.50 per day; fourteen pages at $1 per day. That the aggregate amount of ex penses to be incurred by the Senate and House of Representatives under this statement and report would be $18,630 if all the clerks and laborers and pages are permitted to prove and receive pay for the entire term of the Legislature. We further find upon investigation of the Auditor's records the cost of former Legislatures for clerks, stenographers, employes and pages to be as follows: "For session of 1901, $20,321. 3; session of 1903, $15,212.80; session of 1905, $18,752.43; session of 1907, $20,355.56; session of 1909( $22, 237.50.
