Raleigh.—The reading of tbe stee
rage of Governor Kttchln to the Gen- j
eral Assembly was a feature In the
Senate and House on the first day. The
Houae spent much time discussing
revised and very much hanged rules
governing deliberations of that body
offered by Representative Mnrphy of
Rowan, as chairman of the rules com
mittee.
The special contest is over rule 14
designed to prevent the usual flood
of private charters and other acts
that could be chartered by the Sec
retary of state, saving time and ex
pense to the state through saving
time of the Legislature and printing.
Strong opposition to the innovation
developed and the discussion is still
in progress. Justice of Guilford and
Murphy of Rowan are leading the
fight for the new. rules on the ground
of great eoonomy to the state and
saving of the General Assembly's ex
pense.
Govsrnor KltcMn's Message.
In his biennial message to the Gen
eral Assembly. Governor Kltchin said
the state has had unprecedented pros
perity in all Its departments and in
dustries. He declares the Legislature
must keep abreast of the best public
thought.
Discussing the present deficit of
$750,000 in the state treasury he says
be again appeals for the Assembly to
"cut the garment according to the
cloth" in making appropriations. The
last Legislature appropriated more
than the revenue for the period prov
ed to be.
He recommends that the Governor
be given veto power and that in ap
propriation bills the Governor have
aproval power for amendments reduc
ing but not Increasing appropriations.
Tbe Governor recommends that
traveling auditors be provided to go
into every county and assist in equal
izing and listing all the property that
should be on the assessment books.
He 1b confident that North Carolina
property is worth two billion dollars
and It is listed at one-third of this.
He recommends that a leg<aed
primary system be provided for all of
ficers, including United States Sena
tors, with wrongful use of money pro
hibited As well as penalties for fatse
charges against candidates.
A general search and seizure law is
recommended to augment prohibition
enforcement. And that the Governor
be empowered to employ detectives
cri*. agents and retain special counsel
to assist the solicitors when needed
He appeal sfor the most liberal sup
port of the public school interests so
sll can have, common school educa
tion assured and give some opportu
nity of higher education.
Stating that the number of state
convicts has increased 20 per cent in
four years, he recommends that the
recorder's and police courts be re
quired to report to the Attorney Gen
eral as to prisoners sent to the roads
The Superior Courts, he says, dispose
of 10,000 criminals annually. The
stale's prison has prospered.
Prison Suggestions.
Fie recommends that the present
state's prison be vacated and the farm
be used for receiving prisoners and
working those that are unable to work
on the public roads. He believes that
penitentiary building can be convert
ed into, a state school for the blind,
the present buildings used by this in
stitution being very defective and the
location bad. He recommends the
same commutation system for convict*
on good behavior now served by the
state be applied to county convicts.
He recommends an indeterminate sys
tem of sentences and a state pardon
board. He says 1,131 applications for
pardons reached him during the past
four years. He recommends that in
eases where convicts have families de
pendent on them that oae-third of the
value of their labor be paid to such
dependents. Aitd in cases of homi
cides another one-third should go to
the dependents of the deceased.
He recommends that a legislative
committee investigate all convict-sid
ed roads *nd ascertain their condition.
These are the Jefferson-Wilkesboro
turnpike, Elkin £ Alleghany and
iStatesville Air Line, Mattamusket,
Interstate Y. M. C. A. Convention.

South Atlantic TrancodtinrataL War
lauga Railroad. One thousand con
victs have been working for these
state-aided roads at tbe best discretion
of the council of state in compliance
with legislative acts. And $220,00ti
has been earned in railroad stock for
the state.
The new State School for Feeble-
Mioded at Kinston is reported about
ready for occupancy. The quarter
million dollar fire proof state build
ing Is reported nesting completion
and the work of the building commi*
sion in this respect admirably per
formed.
Corporation Commission Powers.
He recommends that all water pow
er plants, selling power and light and
other power and light plants serving
the public be made subject to the con
trol of the Corporation Commission as
are railroad companies.
He recommends that railroad com
panies be required to draw mileage
from mileage books on the trains;
that Judicial districts be increased to
20; increased pensions for Confeder
ate veterans and widows; factory in
spection to enforce child labor laws;
licensing of all foreign corporations
empowered to do business in this
state and requirement that they be
subject to North Carolina courts; the
creation of a state highway commis
sion and the taking by the state of
the county bonds for roads at par
protected by state beads for liquida
tion after 40 years.
As to freight rates he recommends
provision for special counsel and
agents by the state to aid the Cor
poration Commiasion In fighting for
better lntereatats rates for North Car
olina cities.
He says the library commission has
done a splendid work and the appro
priation should be increased to $7,600;
t'ue Torrens land title system should
be authorised on a voluntary basis;
fish and fisheries Interests demand
special attention and $3,377 tbe com
missloner was obliged to borrow must
be provided for.
Insurance Laws.
On tbe subject of Are insurance, tbe
Governor again recommend* the ap
point meat of a special committee to
Investigate conditions and rates. Oth
er recommendations are the enact
ment of a law prohibiting any com
pact or trust agreement to destroy
competition and put up or keep up
the cost of insurance or to put down
or keep down compensations to
agents in this state; taht no company
be permitted to do business in the
state until it flies a written agree
ment not to charge Insurers in this
state a higher rate or subject them
to more burdensome conditions than
elsewhere; that the use of the coin
surance clause be made optional with
the applicant for insurance; that the
company writing Insurance upon
property of a permanent mature be
required to fix the value at date of Is
suance of policy, and in settlement of
loss such value to be conclusively pre
sumed the true value at time of issu
ance of policy, the burden of proving
any depreciation to be upon the com
pany; that companies be required to
file with the insurance commissioner
a general schedule of rates and regu
lations by which they agree to be
governed, and also the schedules by
which they are governed in other,
parts of,the country; power to insur
ance commissioner to revoke license
of any company charging a rate so
high or so low or imposing conditions
such as In his Judgment are unfair
or prejudicial to the public, with pro
vision for appeal from his ruling to
the courts.
Trust Legislation.
As to trusts the following subsec
tions to the present law are urged;
1 "For any person, firm or corporation
or association to contract, to combine
in the form of trust or otherwise, or
to conspire with any other person,
firm, corporation or association ip re
straint of trade, commerce or manu
facture in this state.
"For any person, firm, corporation
or association to monopolize or at
tempt to monopolise or combine or
conspire with any other person, firm,
corporation or association to monopo
lise any part of the trade, commerce
or manufacture within the state."
The Governor believes that the j
General Assembly should be relieved
of all local and private matters, and
again recommends an amendment to
the constitution prohibiting the grant
Ing by the Legislature of corporate
powers under special acts except to
state Institutions.
A commoittee on rural credits If
recommended, and the sending of two
delegates with the American commits
sion to Btudy European cooperative
credits; also an exhibition by thp
state at the Panama-Pacific Expos!
tion at San Francisco; provision for
participation by Confederate veterai#
of Gettysburg in the semi-centennia
of that battle and for official repre
aentatlon by the state; appolntmen
of township fire wardens; provision
for two assistants in the state libra
rians office, and another clerk for the
Secretary of State.

orated wagons to bring their prize
corn and sweet potatoes. Nearly a

Makes Interesting Discovery.
1 Raleigh.-- Commissioner of Agricul
ture Graham has made an interesting
discovery. He remembered the fact
that while Ills father was governor
it was unlawful to bring cattle dur
ing the summer from the low coun
try into the Piedmont ami mountain
regions and tbe other day he looked
through the old laws and found an
act of 17!H by the North Carolina
legislature in which the driving of
cattle from the long-leaf pine region
Into the oak region In the state was
forbidden, except during the period
between the first of November and
the end of March; the act setting
forth that cattle driven at other times
I from one section to another carried
| tli" "murrain" wltli them.
Car Load of Cotton on Fire.
Greenville.--Several days ago the
Atlantic ('oast Line mixed train run
| liing between Washington and Par
| nnie, took on twenty bales of cotton
and n .quantity of peanuts at Pacto
| I us, which were loaded in a box cur
together. When the train reached
Leers the car of cotton was found to
he on fire and burning furiously.

| and Wilson high schools have organ-
I ied a debating union, under the aus-
I pices of the Dialectic arid Philan
thropic I.lteniiy Societies of the Uni
versity of North Carolina. Similar
j unions have been formed throughout
the state for participation In a con
test for the Aycock memorial cup.
Each school will have two teams,

other the negative sides in the dis
cussion of-the general subject.
Commissioners To Meet Again Soon,.

sioners will have to meet again and
make another attempt, to elect a su
perintendent of public roads for
Rockingham county. The board was
In session hero three days and the
result was a deadlock. Messrs. Jas.
V. Price of Spray, I). L. Blackburn of
Rcidsvliie and George W. Kstes, the
present incumbent, are the candi
dates. The board elected Mr. L. R.
Humphreys of Reidsville county at

Prizes for Corn Growing Contest.
Wilmington. -In addition to the
SIOO in cash offered by L. B. Sasser
to be divided into three prizes and
used in the corn growing contest,
Geo. H. HutafT, of the local Coco-Cole
bottling workj of this place, has of
fered another SIOO to be used as prizes
by the committee. Several other
smaller prizes have been offered. The
prizes will no doubt stimulate inter
est 'n corn growing in New Hanover
and do much toward causing the peo
r-le to raise enough corn to supply
ihe demand.

Why He Changed His Mind.
John 1.,. Sullivan met with some
amusing incidents while giving boxing
lessons.
One day a husky young man came to
him as a pupil. He took his boxing
lesson and went home somewhat the
worse for wear.
When he came for his.second lesson
he said: "Mr? Sullivan, it was my
idea to learn enough about boxing
from you to give a certain young gen
tleman a good licking. I've had it in
for him a good while. But I've changed
my mind. If you have no objections
I'll send this young man down here
