Judge tiraham Leads Opposition on Constitutional Grounds. The biil to increase the Governor's silary came up in tho House Moa ddv, Representative Hayes present ing the iii. j. rity report, and Judge A. v Grvtham that of (he minoritj repoit, and under his able leader ship the npriiy report was only doptfd by a inaj rity of only 2. No true or hp re honest man ever arose in the Legislature to champ i on any cause t han Gu Grahain,and is honored for the courage of his I'onvicrkn and honesty of purpose, with no taint of demagogism lurk ing in his breast. As to his collea gue. Prof. VV. II. 1'. Jenkins he did not vote on the measure as he did not reach Kaleigh until Mo day af ternoon after the adjournment ot he Legislature. We are indebted to the llileigh correspondent of Charlotte Oo.rervtr for a brief sketch of Judge Grahams speech: r'" . The bill to amend The Code and increase the s-ilarj of the Governor from 3,000 to 4,000 was thes aken up as si special order. Judge Graham, of the special committee. rt rd a minority report, to theeffjcf hat the increase of salary could nor apply to the incoming Governor, if id the obiect of the bill would be defeated, lhe re; o;t was in the na ture or a law brief, being an elabor ite legal argument, citing Supreme Court, opinions, against the legality of the incoming Governor taking additional salary. Mr. Haves said the additional amount would not be felt by the rax-payers, and as it now was none out a very rich man could in future ;i;p;re to the v fiiee of Governor. Mr. Hayes concluded i-i a fiae strain of argument and was liberally applaud ed. Mr. Graham replied that if the argument of Mr. Hayes was true G ivtruor-eleet Aycoek could not -:ke his seat until January 1st, 1902 "This section of the constitution has been tiiree times construed by the Supreme Court of North Caro lina. In the case of Adderho't vs. McKee, in Battle vs. McKiner, (Pilgrim Ashly case), and in Ward vs. Elizabeth City, the court has pKiuIy passed upon this section aud settled this question. If the Supreme Court is rignt, now can ii be r:d that. Aycot'k's term did not begin on January 1st, 1901? The framers of that constitution were advertant of just such circumstances as this They wanted to prevent the sponta neous generosity of members of a party towards a great and popular leaier under great political strain. Aud many would vote for it In hope of favors from the recipient of their bounty. I do not believe if Av coek thoroughly understood this question he would take a cent of the increas d salary. He would spurn it. He dos tot love money any now. In 1879 the Legislature reduced the s,l ry to $3 000 That act said it should go into eff et. Norfh Carolina is now paying above the average of States in sal aries according to our means. We are liberal with our public officers We are not niggardly or parsimon ious. We give the Governor a magnificent home to live in, worth 1,500 and other expense, amount ing to $5,000 every jear. The salaries of all other State officers ar -mall indeed compared to this gen erous provision for our Gove o . i'he Legislature that comes here two years hence is the one that should gr pple this q i siion. We have got "W to make provisions for the poor it sane now rotting in the jails, for he education of the children r.t d -nany other pressing needs of people more en tit!, d io our b- n; Scene The old soldiers are fast dying ( ff and soon it will be too late to he'p 'hem. Fifteen years ago I was is the Senate aud i bill ro increase the G -.vernor's salarv to $5,000 came up. then made the same argument nracticaily that I have to-day. The ! j-ct was to in-rease the salary of Governor Scales. We had in that Seriate such men as Gatlio, Cannon Bokin, M tson. Bonner and other 4 eat men aud after a long discus sion the bill was defeat d and I hpe she same result will be witnessed here to-day." Prof. VV. H. P. Jenkins. Pre f. Win. H. P.

J ' I SUPPORT OF LOCAL NEWSPAPERS Nothing of flore Vital Importance to A Community Than the Protection and Building Up of Its Local News paper. The local newspaper is it not a chaiitable institution, but a local in austry, just as much as a cotton mill or any manufacturing enterprise. It has just as much right to de mand of us people their individual aud united patronage, as doe lhe local merchant, who will com plain if any person goes away from town to bur the goods he has foi sale. The citizens of the town will com plain of the small size of their ioca newspaper and the scarcity of it news and never think that the rea cause of its smallness is due to them selves, their meager support of it. The newspaper, its editing anc publication, and the cost of issuing it is a business proposition for it- proprietor, as much so as is the sab of goods to any merchant in th town, only the support of the loca uewspaper is of far more importance to a town, than is the proposition that every person shall give ful support to every local merchant. No local matter is of such vita importance in any community a the protection and building up of its- local newspaper. New Bern Jour nal. The Passing of Russellism. The people of North Carolina are to be congratulated that the end of Russellism is at hand and the dawn of a brighter day is nigh. It goes without saying that the adminstra tion of Russell has been the darkest and blackest characteriz d by more scandal and controlled by tne most underhand political pulls and in liuences, of any that the good old State has been called upon to endure. And in its history, North Carolina nas been forced to undergo many tough and trying experiences. Ail iHve been eclipsed by the record of Russell. In the early days of his tyran nical rule, he outraged the name of his State by the Corporation Com mission scandal, and the memorable iff -nr of the arsenal in the executive office is not yet forgotten. Then came the Smith affair in the Insane- Asylum. Owher scandals developed in the control of the penitentiary. All could have been either averted or corrected had the Governor stuck to his duty. Bat hi3 appointees acd favorites had to be protected a d Lhe Governor was not the one to forget them even if they were rascals. The Southern Railway fcffiir, the asylum scandal,the penitentiary epi sode, and the Railroad Commission var with the conversion of the executive office into arsenal, consti tute the titles to some ot the black est pages in our State's history. In all Governor Russell figured. In all his was the prominent part. In all the casts he was the leading chara cter. Truly the State is coming into better times. Truly a great load has been uplifted and an ever menacing danger thrown off and cast aside. For with Russell in control we knew not wjien nor where nor in vvhat manner the danger would come. We only knew that it exist ed. We feel grateful for the pass ing of Russellism. Smithfield Her ald. Thousand Sent Into Exile.
