1 A ghrlMtaW. THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY. W. C KBVIN, FRANK B. DAVIS, - , - Kdltor. Associate Editor. SUBSCRIPTION PRICE, $1.00 A Bill to Incorporate the Morganton ! and Shelby Railroad. THURSDAY, FEB. ar, 1895 The Republican members of the Legislature last week dis cussed at some length and. with decidedly more gust than any measure that has yet come up the respective records of the "Duke of Richmond" and the "Bull of the Brushies." The fuss ail grew out of the bill transferring Mitchell county from the eighth to the ninth district. The Linneyites declared that when Pearson got in to the Republican crib he did it by such a tight squeeze that he uf huir nn hmh sides of the A - V MM., w- hole." The Duke's henchmen re plied to this that Linney had been in an out so many times that he didn't have any hair left. There were denunciations and accusa tions galore, but the Duke carried the day. As both Linney and Pearson expect to run on the Re publican ticket two years from now, the expert testimony as to their political records brought out last week ought to be preserved for future reference. The six per cent, interest law will not only banish the foreign buildingand loan associations from the State, but it is to be feared that it will seriously cripple the local associations. Many people invested in these associations be cause they were able to earn more than eight per cent, on their money. A great deal of the in vestment stock will now be trans ferred to outside associations op erating in fields where they are not hampered bly such stringent usury laws. The investors placing their money outside the State and the borrowers not being able to bring it back, the "per capita" "circulation is not going to be very largely increased, we fear, under the provisions of the Abell interest bill.

From Our Regular Correspondent. Raleigh, N. C, Feb. 18, '95. At this writing agreement between the republicans and populists on the coouty government bill is as dim iu the distance as ever. The gieater number of the stalwart re publicans stand out stoutly against the cumulative voting feature and some of them, like Campbell, of Cherokee, for instance, swear they will never support it. Lusk and Moody favor it and the latter in. a speech before the fusion caucus declared that Senator Pritcbard warmly favored iu He then went on to say that" Thomas B. Eeed that thought it an ad mirable thing. Butler is bringing all his power to bear in keeping the populists solidly for cumula tion, yet great as is his power and influence he cannot keep all his people in . line. A few oppose cumulation and say they want nothing which will give the demo crats an opportunity to elect a single county commissioner. But ler insists on minority lepresenta tion. He did not invent this feat are of "cumulative voting. The bill was drawn by Spier Whitaker and this is his pet plan. Butler said to me a night or two ago that cumulation was daily growing in strength. Bnt some of the popu lists have always been in doubt as to its ultimate success. , A pronmient straight out repub licau said to me: "I am agaiust The united support which the Democrats of the Senate have given Senator Ransom in the fight which his friends are making to have the eloquent and courtly North Carolinian appointed . min ister to Mexico is a remarkable tribute to his worth and populari ty. We have never seen an in stance where this dignified body of statesmen jvere so earnest in a t matter of this kind. Some of the Republican mem bers of the Legislature are be coming a little bit restive under the whip of Dictator Butler, who, now that he has his long term Senatorial commission safely laid away, is ljrding it over the men who voted for him in a manner truly appalling to common folks. But they are still voting the way the boss says, no matter whether they like it or not. J. , , 1 The " refawmers " in the Legis lature started in last week to . cut down the salaries of the railroad commissioners to $1500. When they found the reduction would only effect the salary of the " re former" they will elect to succeed Mr. Mason, they fell over each other trying to table the bill. The' Dispensary in Norway and Sweden. The system is based on the prin ciple that the state shall mate the liquor bnsiness an absolute mon opoly, and put it into the the con trol of responsible men, whose motive is to reduce instead of in crease the quantity of str6ng4rink consumed. In Bergen there are in the neighborhood of a dozen places where liquor is sold by the glass or bottle. Each is a plain room, perfectly clean, without even a picture on the wall. There is not even a chair iu the room, except the stool behind the count er for the official in charge. He is a respectable man, probably a member of the church. On the Walls are printed the rules of the company, which all must obey. If a mau ask for aqua vita he lays down his coin there is no credit and pure, undrngged spirit is poured out for him. He is not allowed to remain in the room, and it he wants another glass, he is told to come back in three hours. The glass is so Bmall that he might take a glass every tnree hours in the day and not get drnuk. A workingman cannot take a driuk on his way to work, for the saloons do not opeu till eight, nor at noon, for the saloons clone from 12. to 1:30 o'clock. The hour for closing - in winter is balf-paste-ven, and in gammer eight o'cock. The day before a holiday thy close at aeon, ml tiitf.v are closed ueiore the - workingmen are paid off. , The man behiud the counter gets a t'aii ly good salary, hut not a cent froni the business, lie is pro inotfil for making as small 8 lies ' as jMissible. Iu 1876 the per capita consumption was 3.8 quarts; tin 1892, under this yte 111, it had beuu (educed to 3,3 quarts, is or . way Hiid Sweden were the most drunken countries in Europe; now .Norway is three times as sober as - the United States. , cumulative voting, now and for ever. Do you suppose I want to give the democrats a club to beat me with. -I tell you the democrats are smart. If we pass that county government bill as it stands they will get the majority aud we the minority on the boards of county commissioners. We can't explain the co operation idea to our peo ple. " They want to vote in the old fashioned way for all officers, an we intend to see that they have that opportunity. Butler has at tacked some republicans in his paper and made them angry, in regard to the 6 per cent, interest 0111. 1 contend mat tue caucus bad no right to dictate what we should do in regard to that bill and some republicans refused to be bound by it. For opposing the bill we were charged with co operating with the democrats. We can stand that. Butlers attacks on us have not helped the cumula tive voting plan a bit." Seeing that after the nearly nightly caucusing there was 110 agreement on the county govern ment bill the caucus has raised a special committee of 7 populists and 7 republicans to consider it. One of the 14 said ; no agreement was is sight. He added that a compromise would have to be agreed on ; and casually remarked that all legislation was in the nature of compromise. A republican said he did not like the county government bill for two reasons ; one that demo cratic members favored it andthe other that it was a reflection ou the negro voters good sense and honesty. But yet even he said he did not want to see the negroes get control in the eastern counties and knew there would again be ruin if they did get it. The election bill is iu hand. It comes up in the House to morrow. It is of great length; twice too long, remarked A. W. Shaffer, the republican who prepared it. .You have been furnished with every one of its salient features. These were given by one of the steering committee which prepared the bill, or rather which looked over it, since Spier Whitaker prepared this bill also. He tells me he believes it will secure -absolutely honest elections ' There are now only 3'J democrats in tne House aud 4 in the Senate, and it is said four more will be dropped in the House and one in the Senate. The fusionists consider Kay, of Macon, as the democratic leader iu the House., , They fear his fiery mvective, while yet they admire bis pluck and his skill. He is like Stonewall Jackson, in that he "never gets whipped." So said a frank spoken republican. In the Senate, Adams, of Moore, is the democratic champion and he ac quits himself well on all occasions. Abel, ot Johnston, and Dowd, of Mecklenburg, support him well. There has not as yet been action on, a single financial measure. Only one appropriation bill has passed, that being a $3,000 one for furnishing a new building for . the insane asylum here. There is considerable interest iu the proposed liquor law. Liquor dealep, after sounding the legis lators, say they hare uo fear that tue mil will pass. On the other hand all the temperance forces iu uie oiate nave -tor, the first time united in this bill. It comes np to-morrow as a special orderT The President of the State Tern perauce Association; Rev. D. H.Tuttle-, has worked untiringly in its inteiesl. It is safe to say that the appro priation to the State, Guard will be. reduced; the encampment ap propriation being cut off and the annual" allowance to a compuuy not exceeding 81,500. The pojru lists -rail the State Guard the peared at one time that there, was a breach between pops and repub licans on the interest bill, and this was perilously near when a wildly excited fasionists from Wake made the threat that if the bill were not- passed the populists would not co-operate with them on any other measures of public im portance, particularly the election law and connty government bills. The fusionists are being re proached for slowness by not a few of ttieir constituents, and they have no defence to make. Their talk of adjourning February 15th was idle boasting. The prospect of an appropria tion for the State exhibit at the Atlanta exposition is dim. indeed. The fusionists talk a great deal of the security of money in the treas ury. The prospect of getting a loan for the Confederate monu ment is also very dim. The presi dent of the monnmeut association now fears that there will be no way of paying for the handsome bronze statuary cast in Germany for the monument and which has arrived here. Eight thousand dol lars more is needed to pay for this. If the legislature does not lend the money will not the people of the State make another effort and raise this balauce. The chief features of legislative work for the past seven days were as follows: Tuesday in the Senate bills were introduced definiug trnsts and combinations and making them criminals; placing in the hands of the legislature the appointment of the commissioner of agriculture, the keeper of the capitol tnd the State librarian (the latter bill is now favorably reported); to in corporate the Farmers' Life Asso ciation, of North Carol i pa. The bill io sell to Northern gun clubs 100,000 acres of Currituck for $50,000 was very properly tabled. A bill passed allowing Mecklen burg and Charlotte to bay the fair grounds at the latter place. In the House bills were introduced To give school districts power to levy special taxes in aid of schools; to charter the Ohio and Tennessee railway; to provide for legislative sessions every 4 years; to repeal the act incorporating the "Eastern Band" of Cherokee Iudians; to abolish the present boards of .the deaf nvute school at Morganton and the blind insti tution here and create new ones. A bill passed requiring county commissioners to take the bonds of security compauies. Payne and Carlisle, democrats, of liobesou county, were unseated by Korment and Smith. Weduesday iu the Senate bills were introduced to transfer Yad kin county to the 8th Congression al district; to provide a general insurance law, with an insurance commissioner ; to amend the char- UIJ. xus out !. iiauoici bell county passed after a fl f 1 1 I iO f" exciting and personal debate, ll rVV KKII tYY lich Bichmond Pearson (who .

License feeling was developed in the course ! ol' debatts on the .Interest bill and the bill to transfer the county of Mitt-hell from the 8th to the 9th uieitrici, 1 or political iiur dorps ely. On boih - these measures publican "bolted" the cus and otieuly avowed face of threats. It an- put some f fusion c this, in re thV ter of Wilmington so as to throw it into republican bauds. A bill to take away the annual $10,000 appropriated to the Oxford orphan asylum was tabled. A resolution was introduced .by a populist to expunge from the Acts of 1893 the resolution of congratulation to President Cleveland. In the house a resolution was introduced providing for a 20 per cent, redac tion of all salaries of $50 per month or over. Bills were intro duced to incorporate the People's fire insurance company; for com pulsory attendance at puolic schools; to allow the people of Buncombe county to vote on the question of the sale of liquor in Asheville (this was accompanied by a petition with 2000 signa tures). A bill passed transferring to the school fund the $26,000 or the direct tax fund now in the treasuary. There was a great stir by reason of the adoption of a res olution ordering the judiciary com mittee to report the following day the 6 per cent, interest bill,' which bad not been placed in the com mittee's hands uutil 4 p. m. Tues day. Iu ten minutes after the bill was thus placed in the committee's hands a demand for a favorable report was made. This was ex posed by Lnsk and other members of the committee, who threatened to resign. - Thursday in the senate bills were introduced to allow superior court clerks to draw jurors; to ex tend the time for. the commence ment of work ou the Greensboro & Norfolk railway ; to provide for lumber - inspectors. The senate refused to coucur in house amend ments to the bill to punish rail ways for delays in freight-ship ments, and a conference' commit tee is now at work on this. A bill providing for compulsory educa tion of the blind was tabled. A bill to require railways to redeem unused tickets and to prevent ticket "scalping" passed. In the house bills were introduced to re quire executors to give bond; to promote the breeding of better horses in the State. Ewart, Camp bell, Lusk, Lineback, Petra, White. of Bladeu, Youug and other repub licans denounced the Caucasian, Marion Butler's paper, for its at tack upon their committee and the charge that they were smothering the 6 per cent, interest bill. They said outside iutluences were at work (meaning Butler, aud that he was attempting to bnlldoze the legislature). So great was the stir in regard to the adoption of the resolution the day before in re gard to au immediate reports by committee on tbe 6 per cent, inter est 4ill, that the house resolution reconside er one. tuis was an the angry ludiciarv committee. Hilemnti, the populist leader, and the chief woiker for the bill, at tempted to secure a suspension of the rules and put the bill on its readings, but to his disgust his motion was lost. Bills passed to incorporate the Southern Mutual fire insurance company ; to allow a person sueing for an office lo do so in forma pauperts and without attorney general's conseut. Bills makiug May 30th a legal holiday and to prevent preferences by in solvent corporations were tabled. A hot debate began on the bill to transfer Mitchell county from the 8rh to the 9th district. Friday iu the senate a petition was presented from the women of the State, asking for an appropri ation for their department at the Atlanta exposition,' Bills were in troduced to provide for inspection of fresh meats; to establish a training school for idiotic and weak-minded children; to remove Rutherford's court house to Forest City; to ratify the sale of the State's interest in the Caldwell & Watauga turnpike; to charter the Elizabethtown, Chadbourn & Ab bottsburg railway. A bill passed requiring all corporations to pay cash for their checks, due bills and scrip, at the option of holders. The bill to , punish railways for delay of freight shipments came np on final reading, but was re referred. Bills passed -allowing the working of convicts on roads in McDowell and Lincoln counties, and to protect holdersof fire insur ance policies by making a fiual judgment a lien on the real aud personal property of compauies. In tbe house bills were introduced to punish persons who adulterate candy; to make an appropriation for tbe relief ot the Roanoke colo ny memorial association ; to require officers of corporations created by a legislature to be sworn ; to relieve building and loan associations from usurious contracts and irniit them to issue insurance policies; to appropriate $5,000 to the State fair; to require churches, schools and colleges to be incorporated before superior court clerks to pay superior court solic itors $2,000 salary, all fees to be paid into tbe State treasury. The bill to transfer Mitchell very in which was present) was severely at tacked. An order was made that after February 25 no bills carry ing an appropriation should be re ceived. All such bills are to be placed in the appropriatiou com mittee's hand. Saturday, in the Senate, bills were intioduced to abolish trusts, mouopolies and combinations', and to protect private corporations; to require Superior Court clerks to keep a record of all moneys pass ing through their hands; to pre vent double and unjust taxation ; to prevent the working of female convicts on public roads. In the course of a debate-on a bill amend ing a charter of a town a populist Senator (Fowler) declared be would vote for no such change for political reasons only. In tbe House W. B. Fleming, populist, was sworn in as the successor of the late Dr. S. A. Williams, of Wayne. Bills were introduced to establish public burial grounds in the State; to require payiueuts on mortgage debts to be entered on record, with $10 as penalty for failure to so enter. Bills -passed incorporating tbe People's Fire Iusurance Company; to incorporate the "Retreat" at Charlotte. Bills were tabled to regulate opening and closing bar-rooms; to reduce costs iu criminal prosecutions; to simplify the taking of testimony; to prescribe duties of solicitors and regulate their salaries. It was private bill day and a great deal was done. Monday, the 35th day, in the Senate, bills were introduced to provide for revising aud digesting the pnblic laws; to allow the State treasurer to solicit banks of deposit for State funds, if be so desires; to make an appropriation for tbe women's exhibit at the Atlanta exposition. In the House bills were introduced to compel tax payers to list all solvent credits; to repeal the bastardy law : - to regulate hours of labor in factories; to incorporate tbe Morganton and Shelby railway; to prevent double and unjust taxation; to enforce tbe payment of insolvent debts. The six per cent, interest, bill passed tbe house, after four hours hot debate. Three of tbe fusion ists, among them French, tbe chair man of the caucus, "halted" the caucus on this bill. The bill is now a law, having passed tbe senate two weeks ago. riTZHCGH LEK HATES DEAD. Well Known" in Morgan ton where He was - Bora. , I, Special to the New and Obseryer. Cleveland, Ohio, Frb. 18.

One of the most advanced and enlightened publications of the day is Dr. Walter C Murphy's "Health Sanitation and ' Clima tology of the Southern States." As to the object of this publica tion we will quote Dr. Murphy's own words : "Tbe object of this journal is to collect, compile, edit and aid in the dissemination of information of Hygiene, Health, Medicinal Minerals Waters, Sanitary Science and Medical Climatology." It is a quarterly journal issued at Washington, D. C, And, as the object stated is a laudable one, we take pleasure in commending it to all our people, and especially do we mans ur. iviurpny tor nis in tercst in the growth of the South. The January number contains a fine description of the '.scenery along the Southern Railway as it winds its way over tho mountains of Western Carolina, and Dr. Murphy has added to the descrip tion of each section the climatol ogy and general freedom from disease. He pays a high tribute to the health of Western North Carolina. This work is a noble one upon which he has entered and we sincerely, wish him well.
