PAGE TWO r" THE EVENING TIMES, RALEIGH, N. C. v Eereone Bill Special Order ! Again in Rouse on the unfavorable calendar with a minority report. The morning hour having expired, the house went into the committee of the whole, Mr. Koonce in the chair, and the consideration of the revenue bill was resumed where left left off yesterday. Mr. Shepherd moved that the com mittee of the whole accept the reve nue and the machinery act as given out by the finance committee. This was seconded by Mr. Hayes, who spoke of ability of the committee, nd said he thought the nouse would get a better bill by accepting the fi nance committee report. Mr. Gra ham did not like the idea, neither did Mr. Grant, who spoke fluently .against such a course, saying the committee ought to find a way to raise revenue, and not have to issue bonds for running the government. Mr. Morton spoke against Mr. Shep herd's motion. Mr. Dowd said the bill was not perfect, but was the best work the committee could do, and the committee was glad of help, and he hoped the work should go on today as before. The chair said the rules under v which the committee was working i were such that he thought the motion out of order. It was agreed that the work proceed, i Section 66, dispensary, was adopt tj ed, as was 67. Section 68, insurance companies, was passed with notice of amend- ments. .:. , Section 69, dealers in pistols, and . 70, pianos and organs, were adopted by making the tax on piano and or- gan dealers tax $50 instead of $25. Section 71, cigarette dealers and v manufacturers of cigarettes, was amended by Mr. Graham so as to '' make the tax double on manufactur- era, raising it from $250 to $500 and $500 to $1,000 and $1,000 to $1,500. K Mr. Connor wanted to make tax on dealers $5.00 in cities and towns in stead of $10. Connor's amendment was lost. The Graham amendment, on a division, was adopted. , Section 72, public ferries and such, was adopted. Section 72 was adopted, so was 74 and 76. ' Section 76 and 77 were adopted I without change. Section 78, privilege tax on rail roads, was adopted. . Section 79, rate of taxationr was k adopted. " i Section 80, express companies, i which pay two and one-half per cent ' upon the gross earnings in the state, Mr, Graham reviewed the legislation as to the express company and spoke in favor of taxing all the business both inter and intra-state business and raising the tax. to three or four '. per cent. He also gave figures as to earnings and asked that the rate be made four per cent. Mr. Morton said the moment we ; raised taxes on any one thing out of reason, just so soon would the courts . knock out. the whole. He showed t the express company were paying about one-third of all they earn in - the state. He spoke strongly for no change. Mr. Graham compared this tax with others to show his proposi tion was not burdensome. Mr. Wil liams, of Cabarrus, amended by al lowing towns to collect a license tax of $50. Mr. Doughton said he had been listening to hear from the chair man as to this increase. He said that If four per cent was right, why not five, six or seven per cent? Looked to him like digging in the dark. Here we are taxing people without giving anybody a hearing. Mr. Graham asked If Mr. Dough ton had any information that the tax is oppressive? : Mr. Doughton said no, except that several years ago this present tax was agreed upon. The matter of the value of the Southern Express Com pany and several other things came out, and Mr. Morton said they paid only two per cent dividend last yearj The matter was pasited over. Sections 81 and 82,' telegraph and telephone companies, were passed . over. Sections 83, 84, 85, 86, 87 88, were adopted. Section 89 was amended in a minor ' ; way. Sections 90 and 91 were adopted. Section 92 wag slightly amended and adopted. ' Sections 93, 94 and 95 were adopt er"' ed, finishing the revenue bill. it r w T- . .i -. a nr xni. uuwu, at suueBiiuu ui mi. . Doughton, moved that the committee rise, ana tne cnatrman, Mr. Koonce, reported the progress made, which Clerk Lassiter read, and the revenue . bill (with notice of certain amend " ments on third reading, passed its second reading on a roll call. The special order, the Empie bill to prevent the sale of quail, grouse, or mountain pheasants for a term of two years, and limiting the bag to 15 birds for any one man In a day, was laid before the bouse and read. r a r.

He explained by saying his' people demanded that bit oppose the bill, and this was In deference to their wishes and he spoke warmly J for his amendment. I ku. Mr. McCrary wanted Davidson' county exempted. -Mr. Connor wanted the bill ex plained. Mr. Morton undertook to ' ' do this. Mr. McCrary spoka for the j ' exemption of bis county. Mr, Hayes) hoped the bill would go through. Mr. Privott asked if the bill applied to rabbits would the gentleman from Chatham vote for it? The answer was yes. Mr. Fagg wanted Stokes county exempted. This amendment was lost, as was the Davidson amend- ment. Dr. Gordon thought the bill was good with the Turlington amend ment. Mr. Women said he wanted to in clude thv lift- tenant or lessee of hunting land?, and he did not like the idea ot not allowing farmers to sell. He sent forward an amendment that life tenants be included in Turling-! ton s amendments. Mr. Henderson amended so as to allow sons of land owners to sell birds. Mr. Connor said the bill seemed to be defective, judging from the amendments and insisted that the bill ought not to pass, as it was evident the law was framed for the sports man and not for the protection of the birds. Mr. Morton defended the bill say, ing it was common law that the birds belong to the state. "nut." said Mr. Connor, "when killed they beyong to the one who kills them." Mr. arnes asked questions as to fees. Mr. Wilson amended so that wo men can hunt at all seasons. (Joke.) Mr. Weaver said the amendments spoiled the bill. Mr. Latham amended so that any man hunting, and failing to kill fit teen in a day, be fined fifteen dol lars. (Joke No. 2.) Mr. Taylor : struck the keynote v.hen he said the design of the bill was to save the birds by preventing the sale. Mr. Turlington spoke again for his, amendment, saying he made it strin gent so that the farmer must prove they come off his land. Mr. Kitchin asked Mr. Turlington if he thought it right to reverse the rule of evidence "No," was the answer. Mr. Grant asked several pointed questions as to the difference between the land owner and the fellow who owns none. Mr. Mitchell wanted the birds pro tected. Mr. Murphy wanted the Turling-ton-Henderson-Wooten amendments adopted. Mr. Grant asked Murphy the same question. " Mr. Williams amended so as to ap ply to fish same as birds. Mr. Kitchin was opposed to the bill and all the amendments, saying there was too much prohibitions now. an, anma nna will linva tn dnevrnr In the next campaign.

Mr. Kitchin asked if the bill was not the product of the Audubon Society?...;-.- The answer was that Senator Em pie . drew the .bill. Continuing, he spoke of what happened two years ago and the reduction in the major ity. - Mr. Barnes asked if the foreign hunters were not backing the bill? The answer was yes. Mr. Rodwell asked how much Hal ifax paid the Audubon Society? He could not answer. Mr. Murphy did not like all Mr. Kitchin said. He wanted to amend the bill. Mr. ; Majette wanted Tyrrell ex empted, and so amended, saying there was no reason for such a law in his county. -- Wilson, Gates, Pitt, Rowan, Car teret, Hertford, wanted exemption. Mr. Graham left the chair to Mr. Bowie and spoke for the bill. Beaufort, CurrituckLincoln, Cam den, Pasquotank, Robeson, Davidson, Duplin Jones, Mitchell, all wanted exemption. Mr. Privott said the bill was for foreign hunters and he was opposed to it. He wanted a bill that no bird should be shot for two years. He moved to Jable the bill, and the mo tion seemed to be carried, but there was a squabble, and a roll call was demanded, and the bill was tabled by the close vote of 48 to 52, and the game bill was dead. The second special order, the drainage bill, was laid before the house and Mr. Morton sent forward an amendment providing the provis ions of this act do not disturb any developed water powers, and spoke for his amendment on sound line, as on a former day. Mr. Graham said he hoped the Catarrh is a blood disease which causes a general Inflammation of the inner linings or mucous membranes of the body. The diseasing of these delicate surfaces and tissues produces all the well known symptoms of the trouble, such as ringing noises in the head and er -a, tight, stuffy feeling in the nose, pains above the eyes, irritation of the throat, sometimes slight fever, and a general feeling of weakness and ill health. Even the lungs become affected by the continual passage of impure blood through them, and there is danger of consumption if the disease is allowed to remain in the system. 8. S. 8. cures Catarrh because it purines the blood. It goes into the circulation and removes every particle of the catarrhal matter, making this vital fluid pure, rich and healthy. Then the inflamed membranes begin to heal, every symptom disappears, the constitution is built up and health restored. 8. 8.

Book on Catarrh and any medical advice free to all who write. A " V1 SWIFT same old things would not have to be gone over today as at the other hearings, for the bill was very im portant to the state. Mr. Green called the previous question and the amendment of Mr. Morton was lost. The roll call proceeded and the bill passed third reading by u vote of 7 to 78. The third special order was dis placed and the calendar taken up. Mr. Doughton moved, and it was carried, that the house adjourn at 2:3u until 7:30 tonight. The announcements were made and after passing a few second read lug roll call bills the house at 2:30 adjourned. Mills Ratified.

Senator Lockhart Springs a New Move ment to the Rlow-Fiassett substitute his own bill, striking out the-who' of the substitute after the enact, clause. This brought out a sharp COn- amendment, he said. Senators Blow, Barringer, Bassett, and Peele pro tested against the ruling of the chair, but he held firm, declaring that he had carefully examined all authorities on the subject and that he knew he was correct. Senator Orniond then took the floor and addressed himself to the merits of the question, speaking in favor of the Lockhart bill. He brought out nothing new in the discussion, fol lowing close on the heels of the orig inator of the bill, Senator Lockhart, who spoke yesterday. He empha sized Senator Lockhart's arguments, declaring that his heart went out In sympathy for the poor farmers of the tobacco section, who are lying pros trate at the feet of the American To bacco Company. The Lockhart bills means freedom to them. It means also freedom to all other classes from the oppres sion they now labor under, He said that the substitute would not be effective, as Its machinery for enforcement Is not sufficient. He an swered the objections as to the Lock hart bill being too drastic, the pun ishment provided too severe, in an earnest and convincing way, and said that out of the agitation and Indus trial disturbance that thiB bill may result in, great good will come. Senator Travis, of Halifax, fol lowed. He said that he believed that the majority of the senate was agreed upon the facts that effective anti trust legislation should be enacted and that the democratic party should stand to its pledges, and that the only matter in question now Is how to best do it. He declared the state of North Carolina could not destroy a single trust doing an Interstate busi ness. We might shut them out of North Carolina, but through non-resident jobbers and wholesalers their products would still be sold ln this RIDS THE SYSTEM OF CATARRH SPECIFIC CO., , ATL4LaTA( . C A. state. The only thing the state can do is to limit the operation of these trusts In North Carolina. He went on to show that the Blow Bassett substitute Is in direct accord with the democratic platform, as it adopts the very language of the plat form. He said the democratic con vention was so radical on the subject of trust legislation, according to Sena lo Lockhart, that it selected the most radical anti-trust candidate for gov ernor. Is it not sufficient to go as far as the party went, in framing this anti-trust law? He defined . "conspiracy" and showed that the substitute was defi nite in its terms. He took up the Lockhart bill and showed how its terms could be construed to cover even the most harmless of agree ments. He used a homely example to illustrate his point. A few ladies might get together in a small village and declare that 35 cents a dozen was too muqh for eggs and agree not to buy any at that price. Should this agreement bring about a decrease in price of eggs every one of these wo men would be guilty of a felony under the Lockhart law, and would be sent enced to the state prison. He took up the section of the lock hart bill which provides that no firm shall raise the price, after having sold at a very low price in order to stifle competition, and showed where it would work a hardship in that it would keep down the price of raw material. As to the machinery for enforce ment he declared that the substitute differed from Lockhart's bill only in that it docs not require corporations to swear four times a year that they have obeyed the law. Lockhart's bill presumes all corporations to be guil ty until they prove their innocence. There should : be definite lines drawn between the good and the bad. A law should be enacted which would not. hurt legitimate business in its onslaught on illegitimate busi nes. Because the substitute will pro tect legitimate business enterprises and because it is in direct line with the democratic platform he favored it; The debate then ceased, the mat ter to be taken up tonight.

On motion of Senator Nimocks the senate adjourned to meet tonight at 8 o'clock. TO CHAXGK COVXTY LIXE. Pasquotank and Camden Differ as to . Lines. Mr. Cooke, of Camden, has Intro duced a bill to make the channel of Pasquotank River the boundary line between Camden and Pasquotank counties. An act of 1777 established Camden county out of the part of Pasquotank county lying on the northeast side of Pasquotank river. Pasquotank river below Elizabeth City Is several miles wide and the channel is the natural scientific and geographical boundary between the counties, and is so recognized and shown on the government maps. Camden bordering for thirty or more miles on Pasquotank river by a cur ious legal anomaly has no water front on that river, and the wharves on the Camden shore, the ferries sup ported by Camden people, and fish ing interests on the Camden side be long to Pasquotank county.

Judge Hart did not ' indicate his ruling in any way. The impression prevails here that Governor Patterson will go on the stand shortly after Colonel Cooper comes off. It Is based on the fact that Colonel Cooper said yesterday that the governor, and not he or Robin, fixed the time for the confer ence at the governor's mansion on the afternoon of the tragedy. In other words the governor had thus fixed the time for them to be on the street in coming to the mansion. DEATH OF THREE KEN BY COLORADO BLIZZARD (By Leased Wire to The Times.)

Mr. Walter Howe, who appeared at St. Mary's Auditorium a year ago. scored .another success last night. Tho audience was kept small by a combi nation of circumstances, including a reception at tho Mansion, a lycenm entertainment at the A. & M. College, a Choral Society mooting, and bad weather. But In spite of these dis advantages Mr. Howe was in the best of form, and the audience was happy all the way through. Mr. Howe began with John Hays' "Enchanted Shirt". His next num ber was Tom Hood's "Dream of Eu gene Aram", a highly dramatic: nar rative which brought out all of the reader's powers. The other numbers in Part I of the pragram were mostly light. After the interval Mr. Howe ap peared in three numbers. Tho first was Act I from "Richrd III". It was as good as a play, better Indeed than a representation by an ordinary com pany. A scene from "The School For Scandal", possibly Mr. Howe's best number, came next. Comparisons, however, were upset every time Mr. Howe appeared in a new selection, and notably so In his last number, given by roquest, "Tho Knight and the Lady". This very unusual story, told in Barham's rollicking meas ures, brought down the house. Mr, Howe is very much more than a mere reader. He Is an ablo actor, of such variety and power that ono can hardly say whether he Is best in comedy or tragedy. It is to be hoped that he will come to Raleigh again, and that more people will hear him. Charles A. Watson. Concerning the death of Mr. Charles A. Watson, the following Is tikeu from the Atlanta Journal: "Peculiar sadness surrounds the death ol Mr, Charles A. Watson, form erly of Atlanta, and later of Raleigh, N. C who died ln Boston, Mass., last vfcek. The news of his death was pub lished here, when many remembered him as the manager of the local branch of the Berlin Anallne Works. But even more sad has the news be come since it became' known that Mr. Watson was soon to have been married, and to an Atlanta girl. He was en gaged to Miss Martha Francis, daugh ter bf M. D. Francis, the coal dealer of Atlanta. Miss Francis was In New Tork ln school at the time of her fiance's death. She attended the funer al ln Raleigh, Mr. Watson's old home, and where his parents live. It waa dur ing the time that MIbs Francis was ln Atlanta that this romance started that has just culminated so sadly. He met "Mr. Watson was a son of Mr. 'and Mrs. F. A. Watson, of Raleigh, and a grandson of Col, John Nichols, one of the pioneer cltlsens of that place. He was born ln ' Raleigh and educated there. He was a young man Just twenty-six years of age, and possessed a splendid and loving character. His brother, J. Lee Watson, Is district man. ager of Atlanta of the Allis-Chalmers Company."
