He asked that the resolution be put upon its passage. This has been the custom for many years, and he urged that this one be adopted. Mr Ferrell opposed the resolution because he thought the laborers were receiving what they contracted for and the State could not afford to make the additional payment. Representative Young was supprised that anyone should oppose the resolu tion. No laboring man In the State would disapprove of the additional pay. His colleague from Wake had orr the previous evening voted away J3o,000 or the State's money, and now opposed this small allowance. He hoped the resolution would pass. The vote was put and the resolution adopted. Bill to incorporate the Winston Salem Southbound Railway Company was put upon its readings. Mr. Mc Crary made a speech In opposition to the bill.

ARGUMENT BEFORE THE COMMITTEE j YESTERDAY. Sir. J- C. I Harris Shows he Falsity d Hypocrisy of Broughton's Contest So Doubt of Young Keeping His Seat On yesterday afternoon Mr. J. C. L. Harris, counsel for Representative J. II. Young, made his argument before the committee. Mr. Harris first analyzed the evidence relative to the ballot box of the First division of the First Ward. He showed that the original count had been care fully and thoroughly, made and that Mr. Broughton was represented by his brother, Mr. Z. T. Broughton, and three other Democrats. That this count gave Broughton 179, Young 123 and O'Kelly 3. i The recount showed the same rfum ber of votes to have been cast and that the fraud perpetrated in this box af ter the original count had been made, was done with such mathematical pre cision as to demonstrate the tampering with this box beyond any doubt. The re-count by Clerk Young gave Brough- ton 180, Young 116 and O'Kelly 11, mak- ing the total number of votes 207, as by the original count. Mr. Harris then then took up the testimony showing that all the seals on this box except one had been broken between the time the boxes were delivered to Clerk Young and the day the re-count was commenced. That this box had been opened and the ballots changed was further proven by the fact that Broughton called attention to this box and had it first counted, and, therefore. whoever falsified this box contrived the information to Broughton that he would find a gain in this box. Mr. Har ris said that he could imagine most anything that would be said by the other side, but he did not think they would take the position that Clerk Young had conspired to cheat J. H. Young out of his seat by tampering with this box. As to the Stony Hill box, it was shown that the count had been fairly, thoroughly ;and carefully made, and that Mr. W. H. Chappell, who repre sented the '.Democrats, hatl declared that there was no mistake in the count. Mr. Harris then, with great force, directed attention to the forging and counterfeiting of .the Republican-Populist county tickets. Mr D. H. Young, who was chairman of the County Re publican Committee, swore that he first printed the county tickets on yel low paper; that these tickets were duplicated on yellow paper by the Democratic County Committee, and that the name of Young was left off of tnem, ana mat crougnion was yui uu. This attempt to deceive and perpetrate a fraud on the unlettered voter was ae tected, and the yellow tickets were all withdrawn, and between 1" and 4 o'clock on the night of the election Chairman Young had another set of county tickets printed on blue paper, and that these tickets were also dupli cated, just as the yellow ones were, and Broughton had them at an the polls he could . reach on election day. Such was the attitude of Mr, Brough ton. He was trying to become the beneficiary of this brazen attempt to secure votes by wilfully deceiving the unlettered voter. The number of yel low and blue ballots with the names of all the Republican and Populist candidates thereon except that of ST. H. i Young, and with that of Neednam B. ! Broughton printed thereon instead of that of J. H. Young, showed that the forgery, and counterfeiters got in their work too well. Mr. Harris then declared that but for this deception of the voters Young's majority would have been two hundred. That because of this phase of the case which is unde- nied, this contestant did not come before the committee with clean hands, and accepting the vote of 4,731, as claimed for Broughton, the committee could with all fitness of fairness refuse to seat Mr. Broughton because of the fraudulent votes he received by this deliberate and wilful deception of the voters. Mr. Harris then showed that Brough tori was not entitled to 27 votes cast fori him by .students of Wake Forest college. The contestant had failed and must have done so witn deiiDeration, to ask each one or tnese students wnetner tney leu tne conege aunng v a- cation and returned again when tne session opened. The students also ao- mitted that they had not listed on the first day of June, 189b, at the pons ror taxation in wane county. n prqven by Mr. McNeill, a student who has been at the college since beptem- ber, 1895, that 25 of these students left the ;ollesre last vacation and remained away until the fall session commenced. and that two of them had not resided at ithe college for ninety days before the election. That these two acts of the students in not remaining in Wake county during vacation, and in refus- ing to list their poll for taxation. spoke with much more rorce ana ei- feet than did their oral examination on challenge day, and juagea oy ineir acis nn reference to their citizensnip, tney were not citizens or this county, ana had no right to vote. - Now, how does the vote stand? By thef original count on the night of the election Young had 4,738 votes, Brough- ton 4,720. uy tne recount xoung nau 4,721 and Broughton 4,719. According to the proor broughton is enuuea io the addition of two votes at Apex ana two at Drift Creek. This would maice his vote 4,724. He is not entitled 10 ine votes or tnese lunatics ana idiots, ana the vote of "Robert Royster, a' convict, and one vote at Holly Springs and three votes at wakeneia, wnicn were pieces of paper with Broughton s name tnereon witnout any otner name or designation for what office the name was intended jfTom nis vote snouia aiso loeiaeaucxea one au me jiar. ten, dox ana one eacn in tne xnira ana oeu- ona wards, une votes aiso or w imam iee, nenry wnaer, vv. xi. oimia anu vvesiey namuion, wno regisirt?u w un oul ceruncai.es, musi aiso ue ueuytieu from Broughton's vote, making a total of 15.
