A resolution allowing the Secre tary of State to return to bidders for the public printing their $500 checks, tlie bids to ne opened in the presence of a committee brought up discussion. It was said". by some that th reason why the opening of the bid was not de sired was because the amount of the bids was not desired to be made known. - Mr. French opposed a resolution that the bids etc., be returned' nnbpehed. . ..Mr. Young I th? objecled I ppjjr of their bids. Mr h of 1)emocrat? said' , i, tu the purpose in not allowing the Secretary of State to open the bids and return tli3 check was that the amotin.t'of'the bids might not be known, as the purpose of the op ; p03jtion was to award the public printing at a figure higher than that named iu the lowest of those bids. -Mr. French asked whether if a committee opened these bids could not the 1 owe ft bidder claim the c infract. Mr. Smilh,of Gates, said tha.t,the public printing bill was repealed on the very day that the bids were to have been opened. Mr. French said he would join Mr. Smith iu a request to bidders to make the bids public. Mr. Smith said he wanted the bids opened by the Secretary of State in the pres ence of the clerk. Mr. Lusk said the bids, could be opened by the House or. the Secretary of Sjate,for they were now the private proper ty of the bidders. Mr. Young said no authority Mas needed to return the bids. Mr. Winborne olVered an amendment sc the Secretary of Stats should open the bids in the presence of his cjerk and make a record. Mr. French said ths bid-! ders wanted the bids returned un opened. He contended that the Secretary of State had no right to open the bids. Campbell said that the House had nothing to do with this matter, and charged the Dem ocrats with bringing up this mat ter in order .to use it in the next campaign. Peebles said doctors dilfer and so do lawyers. Lawyers differ here to-day on this question. He said the secretary of State was the custodian of these, bids. He said the secretary of State had a lt.gal rirrht to the bids until he was assured of the owners, for whom he is really the trustee. He said there was a "cat in the meal bag,' and that this was that the fusion- isS did not want' the lowest bidder known. This is the secret. Peebles said no wan led these Mr. bids opened rotMt the people of the I State could know the lowest bid made. He.isaid.lhe committee o: public printing, when it is appoint -edj ought to have this information. Mr. White, of Bladen, asked if suit were brought by the bidders they could nor recover the bids.' Mr. Peebles silid that this could be done because there were checks in the bids; otherwise wy could not re cover th;j bids. Mr. White, of Bladen, said it was not the purpose of the fusionists to give to bidders the information contained in these bids. Mr Busk asked if there was a secret in thes b'ds wouid not an injunction lie against theSecretary of State to prevent his revealing it. Mr. Peebles said he had never heard of such a case ; that a secret was not property. . Mr. McClannv moved that the whole matter?; referred to the committee on judiciary. The vote was a.paity one; the fusion ists voting nay. The vote was ayes 40, noes 5S. The amend ment requiring the bids to be kept secret, until after the printing;, under a new contract, is a warded was then voted on. Here azain there was a party vote. The re sult was ayes 40. noes To. The quest ion then came on the adop tion of French's substitute, allow ing the Secretary of State to return the bids unopened whenever thn name of the bidder appears on the envelope, or in case there is no name, that they be opened in the presence of his clerk, and the checks returned. The substitute was adopted 70 to 40. The bill to require the commis sioners of Pitt county to reduce the olllcial bond of the sheriff to $60,000, came up. A bill of the same tenor caused so much debate yesterday. Mr. Robinson said he letter bill was to come before the committee this afternoon, and he made the same motion as to the other bill. Mr. Cox, Repub lican, said he wanted this bill considered now, before t he House. j He made an attack missiorers. He sa pointed sheriff, M notified by some 1 c on Pitt's com- said that the ap- Mr. King,cfJPiU. notified by some Democrat, was here to appear before the commit tee, and he declared that this con test was one between Sherill Arrington and the county com missioners. Mr. Ray, as a mem ber of the judiciary committee, expressed his surprise at the fact that an attempt was made to get up this bill. He rebuked Mr. Cox for the latter's appeal to the pas sions and prejudices of members, lie said that the committee want ed to allow the people of Pitt, whose characters it had been sought to besmirch, to be given a hearing. He said that Mr. Cox was strangly nervous in his desire to rush this case, if he had a good cause. Mr. Philips said the bill before tho House yesterday was illegal and hence the bill was drawn and presented to-day. Mr Ray said this was undue haste, when the matter was before a com ' mittee of this house Mr. Phillips said he liad ascertainad to-day that the sheriff's b nd had not been increased, as was alleged yesterday, ami that he wanted to appolize for the statements made j yesterday, which were on informa tion he hat! Mr. Rny said he was glad Mr. Phillips had the manhood to acknowledge that th charges ' were wrong, and that W per rent. of the party charges were wrong and slanderous. He continued that nothing was done by defer ring this matter and asked Mr. Phillips rf this were not true. Mr. Phillips said he could not deny this. Mr. Ray said he was not op posing the bill jf it was meritorious. Mr. Winboine made an aMo de fence of the people of Pitt who, he said, were s: aspersed by the fusior.ists yesterday, the charges extending not only to Pitt, but to all the boards of commissioners in the State. He said the commis sioners of Pitt had acted properly. Mr.-Smith, of (iates, said the bend Iliad not been raise-! to the limit. u ,V;l . t u0 US. llian double th..

L Cionsc, D.n uiiaiatiii ti .Sot nt IS:iIiof . Rai.kiwh, N. C, .January 1': The senatorial question in thi state was settled yesterday after noon by the nomination ot Ma-jon Butler to succeed Senator Ransom for the long term. The populi-t caucus met in tin; house end of the capitol and invited the republican caucus then in the senate'wing to inc't them in join: session. But ler was then nominated by accla mation, without a shade of opposi tion. Pritchard having Monday night been named by the republicans was in turn nominated after But ler, by the two parties. Butier's a;ze is 1 and Prichard's '!. It is thought now that the bitterness stirred up bv the caucus may cause some difference between the Bolton and Pritchard factions, in the legislature. Moreover, that the fusion having served the end - of the leaders, will now turn their eyes upon themselves and possibly d rift apart. This is what the dem - orrats hone for. But now the two parties nresent a solid front. The bill to repeal the railroad commission was introduced by Kwart, one of the Jat senatorial candidates, and will be passed. Then it is thought Butler with strengthen his cause by putting it in tlie hands of one man instead of in the hands of time, as at pres ent. This is a plan of party pow er and Butler appreciates it. A bill was introduced also to a bolish cardial pinishment in the state. The fusion program has been carried out to the letler so far and it is probable that the rest of it wiil go through also, and leave them stronger at tlie end ot th legislature than thev were before i Meanwhile the demo -rats tr lighting even' inch and putting themselver in readiness to pounce on any expenditure that may beyond those allowed by the pres ?nt law.

Valuable for UieSotitD, So far as our observation goes, tlie Manufacturer's Record, pub- !u,iea at K.iltinu.re, stands upon a unique pedestal, and the question presents itself, "Does the South appreciate what this publication s doing for it ?'' The journal car ries broadcast over the country each week information, valuable and desirable, etneerning the sec tion whose interests it has so com pletely at heart. The North has no such publication tho West has not, nor the Northwest, the South west, the New England States, the Middle States nor the Pacific slope yet there can be no question that these sections would be benefited through eiforts similar to those which have made the Manufactur ers' Record so influential and val uable. Coining, as it does, as a weekly visitor in the Free Press oil ice, we are prepared to attest the hold its recitals of what is doing in a man. ufictui ing and industrial way in the South take upon the reader. These iveilals civate an entirely home. Lveii to those acqiiain'a 1 'iict1 brought each w ek is sur mising, and strengthens the belief that the tide has turned for hj South, and that it. is the j-eotion of ihi g -i at country towards which emulation is tuTuing in a way that irn'ieafes marked changes ere the close ot t he cent ury. The South is gathering to itself" a great variety of new people, eat h of whom go' there to f-jlbov joiuo chosen o'-eupatioii. T he Northern truck-farmer is dividing space with the native cotton-urowvr, and tha vineyard H springing up alongside The textile-worker journeys south ward iu the same car with the iron -m ilder, while capital from tho North and West is carried down to be invested in phosphate and cotton-oil industries. Mechanics, uucdiini-ds aud lumbermen are finding new homes, and trades peonle follow them with their wares. New towns are springing up. and old ones are growing into cities, and cities are taming iu population. The South is unques tionably growing, and it is safe to assert that nearly twice as many people are moving thither from the North and West today as there . were five vears r go.
