This bill provoked the usual de
bate la charges and denials of use
less extravagance and pleas, for' the,
little boys, with the usual result that
the boys won out by big majority;
Mr. Jaeobson explained that a similar
bill passed every legislature, and one
had passed the senate. All the labor
era had had an increase. -Mr.? Mc
Rackan spoke earnestly against the
allowance of $90 extra to the chief
page, declaring It was throwing away
the money of the state. Messrs.
Harshaw and Harris made veloquent
speeches for the boys, and as the lit
tle fellows stood in an anxious group
of (interested embryo politicians get
ting their first delightful tastethe
dangerous taste of the excitement
of a test vote on their popularity and
of appreciation . of faithful service,
the bill passed with a thunderous
chorus of "ayes," and the clapping of
their little hands was sweet music to
the representatives.
The house then adjourned.
Senators Continue
. Discussion if oday of
the Anti-Trust Bill
(Continued from First Pace.) :
the. American Tobacco Company sent
telegrams and representatives to
Raleigh to oppose the election of one
of the candidates.
Mr. Fleming asked Mr. -Holt what
authority he had to plead for the bill
In the name of the tobacco farmers.
Where; was there a single instance of
any tobacco farmer or other tobacco
interest of the state in which the pas
sage of this bill was askedt; I
Mr. ..Holt replied by asserting that
the- RVJ. Reynolds and Amertcan-'TTo
baeco Company interests were con
cerned' in the Action -telegraphed to the
senator from' Pitt yesterday. , f.i :';
Mr. Fleming denied it most positive
ly, that' was not true in any sense of L Replying "to another
any part,
Mr. Buxton stated that Mr. Holt was
wrong in his reference to the 'incident
connected with the election of a United
States senator. It did not occur lit
North Carolina at all. When he (Bux
ton) alluded . to the matter yesterday,
he had reference to something that oc
curred in 'Washington City. The Amer
ican Tobacco Company, in doing what
it is said to have done, did it in Wash
ington and not through representatives
sent to Raleigh during the senatorial
contest,
Ms. McLean aBked Mr. 'Holt if he
would give the name of the Judge he
had reference to in his speech a mo
ment ago.
- Mr. Holt declined - to do that He
thought it , would not be 'the proper
thing to do,
When Mr. McLean, in continuing to
question Mr. -' Holt; embarassed , the
speaker. Mr. Holt good-naturedly satd
he was not nimble enough on his feet
to cope with the senator from Robeson,
who. deservedly, has a reputation as a
cross examiner. He would say that he
was entitled to the reputation-he en
Joyed, and he hoped the senator would
et him alone.
He did not think the bill would drive
the American Tobacco .Company from
the state, . He had no desire to run
that corporation away. He thoueht
the' company war not directly 'respon
sible' for some of the things ft got the
credit of doing. He limply wanted to
make them, -quit their meanness.
Me.. Fleming insisted that some bt
the statements which Mr.. Holt had
made- concerning the ' tobacco crop,
etc.. were not correct; that the statis
tics .were to the eqskrry.v'y..sv;;;i;0
when Mr Houm the course of his
apeeeh; charged the American Tobacco
Company with 'the death of a certain
tobacco manufacturer of Winston: Mr;
Buxton arose and said .that the people
of his home town understood that Mr.
John Hanee died from Bright's disease.
Mr. Holt concluded by denouncing
the methods , of some trusts and their
activity, in politics and their "at
tempts upon even the judiciary of the
state." 1 v
As he sat down, Mr. Buxton, in re
ply to Mr. Holt's statement that Mr.
J. W. Hanes had been ruined by the
American Tobacco Company, said that
when ha died of disease lie had and
his estate now owns $100,000 of stock
In A branch of the American Tobacco
Company, the Reynolds Company : at
Winston. ; ; .- , ';. ' ;...,..
r v; Mr. Daniel of Halifax.
Mr.' Daniel began his Speech by re
counting- his attitude as to the sev
eral bills that - had come before . the
committee on the trust question. . He
said that it should be the purpose of
the bill which the legislature should
pass to strike at every trust, wherever
it is found, and not ft any dingle trust
or combine.' That i as tlie platform
of the party. 1
He did not say that the Eeld bill Was
the embodiment of tt?e democratic
platform, and if any amendments to
it are offered that t . e calculated to
Improve and strengthen it, , his vote
! would be recorded for them. '
He did not agree with the action or
the judiciary committee in some of the
things it did in preparing the bill
which tt reported to ths senate, not.
ably ; that which eliminated . certain
machinery designed to aid in the en
forcement of the provisions of theblll.
In order to make effective ny rust
legislation enacted by this legislature
there should be some Ulcer of the stats
designated to enquire into the opera-
ftions of these corporations, s They are
the creatures of the state.;, Vs "s v
l the A merlran Tobacco Company. He
believe4 it was not proper to have dls
eussed that corporation particularly,
as has been 'done.' :
, Ho '- did not agree with the senator
from Robeson in the matte ot agree
ments; that the parties ,vrould be
yuilty; of a misdemeanor . under the
committee bilL For, as be had stated
to the senator, he did not. favor that
feature of the Reid bill that triads the
parties-to such' agreements guilty of a
felony. -' : , . ' ' , '!r -Mr.
McLean, insisted that an agree
ment between' two . -or mere persons
not 'to bid higher than a '.' certain
amount at a sale would subject them
to indictment under both of the bills.
- Mr. , Reid made the legal point that
if any such agreement was made at
an executor's sale and the fact .'proved.
the administrator could be 'required to
make a re-sale of the article in .ques
tion. '' ; ,
"Mr, Daniel then took up several sec
tions of the bill with reference to their
effect upon attempts to injure or de
stroy the business , of rivals, and in
connection with several ot the amend
ments that are proposed. His argu
ment at this stage was confined to the
legal aspect of the question.
Referring to the affidavit section, he
said if that is not the proper affidavit.
then we should not leave this cham
ber until the bill is so perfected as to
make it effective. '
Mr. Hicks of Granville.
Mr. ' Hicks followed Mr. Daniel and
criticised the statements that had been
uttered by: some of those who had
discussed the subject like that of
the senator who had stated that he
wanted the bill if it did run the Amer
ican Tobacco Company out of the state
and seriously affected the interests of
every tobacco farmer in North. Caro
lina. This is no light matter. It is a
mighty serious thing, when one con
siders such a result from the destruc
tion of competition. We cannot afford
to pass a bill here that will destroy so
Important an Industry as the tobacco
interests of the state. So far as the
American Tobacoc Company Is con
cerned, he would have throttled that
when it first began to throttle smaller
factories. But the wounds then made
have-largely healed and we have com
petition for the North Carolina tobac
co products throughout the state.
With an Amendment which I will of
fer, 1 will support the Reid, bill as re
ported by the committee. ' I am against
running the American Tobacco-Com
pany or any other company that con
tributes to the making of markets in
our. state for our own products.' .Don't
let's dostroy competition,, and don't
IWs "destroy ' buir own ; mi krifdC ths

short to reach into the Btate of New
Jersey;' ;r, v , at'
comment . by
Mr. Holt with reference to the alleged
contribution of the American, Tobacco
Company to the defeat of one of the
candidates fori, United States senator,
Mr.-Hicks said he was the friend of
the defeated- candidate referred to and
voted for him in the legislature,' ."Rut
he would say that if the American
Tobacco Company had any hand in the
election ,oi jne senator we nnany cnose
to represent us in Washington, then
they had a hand in accomplishing a
good job referirng to the election of
Senator Overman. " '
Not Here to Represent ' Interests' of
VirRinla.
Mr. King said he thought the people-
themselves were largely responsible
for the growth of the trusts. ' ' ft. .?
. He would Vote for the bill if he were
here o represent the interests of Vir
ginia, but as he was not here for any
such purpose, he. would refuse, to vote
for the - bill ; pending. '' Mr. King's
speech, . though very brief, was very
much to .the point. ,'',"' 1 J ;
- ; Mr. Blair's Hot Speech r n'
He was followed by f M,r. Blair;' of i
Montgomery; who stated that- he would
not vote for the hill. M there" was a
bill pending which he believed would
suppress every trust in the state, Or
doing business In this state, - or - that
he believed would be effective in con
tributing .directly tor that end, he would
cheerfullr and gladly vote. for. it, but
this, bill would have- no such effect.
He did not know anything about to
bacco did not grow It or sell it or use
It in any form, but he knew -that the
North' Carolina tobacco growers and
our local tobacco Interests are opposed
to this proposed legislation. " j, It he
could by his Vote here wipe the Amer
ican Tobacco Company cntlreljt out of
existence he, would do it, but he would
not: vote for. a bill and take the. au
tltude of legislating against the Inter
ests of the people of his qwn state,
and that, too, to the end that the in
terest of other . states a would ? profit
thereby. ,; That is the situation and de
nials en the partr of some senators will
not, change the. fact , It has come to
the question of whether, we. ehall en-
apt a law here that will injure, If not
destroy, one of the very greatest in
dustrial interests of North . Carolina,
We should have laws to regulate the
big corporations, and to prohibit them
as far as we can from any and all at
tempts to destroy competition, but we
are not here to destroy any industry
that -directly and largely effects ,th
industrial life and welfare of a large
position of the citizens of the state. ;
He referred at length to the cotton
manufacturers and the cotton grow
ers association, both representing. re
spectively two great industries of our
state, and declared that the demo
cratic platform 'did not stand for a bill
that, in its initial purpose, affected
or should affect injuriously sm-h indus
tries, if the bill is to be r ""' ive and
apply to trusts and con : ons in

He j. .:...-! but his objections to the
commlittea bill and the original Rid
bill. He thought the pending bill ought
to be aiiii ii Je4' so as to incorporate cer
tain features of the McLean.' proposi
tion, known as the McLean substitute.
.We ought not to attempt to single out
any particular' trust, however objec
tionable it may be. . The law passed
ought to be' general and vapply to all.
Mr. Masoaof Gaston ou the Hill. -Mr.-Mason
began by saying that the
discussion bad been confined : to the
democratic members of the senate. He
thought it was time the party was get
ting together en this matter, . - (
i He believed it would . be, better; for
this legislature to adjourn without pas
sing' either of the bills that were pre
pared than to adopt either one of thero.

Certainly this bill is class legislation,
and nothing else, end there is no call for
us to put ourselves in the -attitude, (as
democrats and individuals) ot. fight
ing any Special interests. . ' '
Mr Mason made a fine speech, with but
the length to which this report has
grown, and the pressure of other mat
tersr in our'; columns today, , it is im
practicable to' follow him through the
argument he made. v ,f..
He was followed by Mr. Long of Ire
dell, . who also ' counseled conservatism
and: declared "that he was unwilling- to
vote' for any bill that will be calculated
to injure the democratic patty Jn the
state' and nation.
The people' of North Carolina are a
reasonable as well as a just people and
are not demanding radical legislation
on the trust or any other question, nor
calling for exhibitions of demagogary.
He did not intend to charge that any
senator had been guilty of such exhi
bition, however. ,
When this legislature adjourns the re
presentatives, of the party ought- to
leave Raleigh assured of a united and
not a divided democracy. 1 ,
He hoped" that, the senate would ral
ly as one man around the senator from
Robertson ami adopting his substitute
dispose of the question. $
The First Test Vote. ' ' "
At this juncture Mr. Blairarose and
demanded the previous -question. XJqoxi
a division his demand was sustained, by
the vote, of 23 to 18.
Thereupon Mft Reid arose to a ques'
tion of persons-privilege and said that
he had Introduced his bill in good faith
and was proceeding .uk an evident -ur-poae.
wheit MivMaaennrose and moved
a,' reconsideration of the vote that, call

was a small matter as compared with
the subject in .hand. That he did not
want to- put the senator from Forsyth
In a hole and he would not. attempt
the impossible task of digging one big
enough to hold. him. .,
, He then proceeded to argue in favor
of his bill and devoted ins . remarks
