IUi.iiqh, February 18. Today was the fourth and last of the argument In the lower house on the impeachment resolution. Again the house was packed to the doors. Interest In the famous case never abated for an instant. The speeches during the long discus sion have been on a high plane and some have been of a real orat.ircial power and today it so continued. The resolution for the Impeachment of the Judges was taken up by the Home at ten o'clock this morning, the hour agreed upon Saturday. Ebbs of Madison county, the leader on the Republican side, opened the debate tie was the thirty second speaker that opposed Impeachment. He was followed on that side by Owens, Populist of Tyr rell, and by Mcintosh and by Pelree of Stokes and Blythe of Henderson, all Re publicans. Alexander of Rutherford, spoke In support of impeachment and was fol lowed by White of Halifax and Mor phew of McDowell. Locke Craig, of Buncombe, the introducer of the Im peachment resolution In the House, closed the debate which had occupied four days. Cia'g at acked the Supreme Court, say leg thru its Republican majority had systematically, deliberately and designed ly attacked tbe work of the Legislature of 199, so that the Legislature of 1899 had to sit In perpetual session for two years to hold a sword of terror oyer these judges to protect tbo people from their encroachments. ' Wherr," the speaker asked "Is the man who does not In his heart feel that these men are dangerous. If tbey did not know tbat the constitution forbade any will In tbe nature of an execution to be Issued against tbe Htale treasury, they ought to be driven out for Igno rance. If the dupreme court, as Senator l'rltcl ard and Congrcitman Llnney and Congressman Pearson intimated, has been packed todeslroy our Constitution al Amendment, it ought to be unpacked. This couit Is the first to inject politics and Insult tbe Legislature." Great applause greeted the speaker al thla point, and in continual Ion Craig termed tbe Supreme Court "A Tyran nial Oligarchy" aod demanded the im peachment of Judge Furcbea and Doug la. He then called the previous ques tion. T be substitute ottered by Connor for the resolution of Impeachment, setting forth tbat tbe Supreme Court had aa aumed power In derogation of the con stitution, was voted on and lost, ayes 13, noes 80. The resolution of Impeachment was thai adopted, ayes 61. now U, all tbe Republicans and Populists voting no, the remainder being Democrats.
