K Snys Governor Carr In II in Sjm.
Hal Message Sent Out Twlay.
The affairs of thr State penitentiary
are in such shape that a special ap
propriation by th legislature is well
nigh a necessity. Governor Carr
res lues this and at the close of the
session today sends a special message
j in regard to the penitentiary. It was
read at a little after 13 o'clock today
in both branches of the legislature.
Here it i:
"To the general assembly of North
j Carolina :
It is regretted that circumstances
compel me to send in a special mes
sage at this time.
Under the sense of my responsibility,
as chief executive, for the proper care
aud management of the state's pnblio
institutions, 1 must call your attention
to the fact that the appropriation
made to supplement the resources of
the penitentiary for its support, is
entirely inadequate to nult absolute
necessities.
Without further aid from the gen

meet a crisis within a year.
My duty is discharirud with the
statement of the grave fact involved
aud I leave' the respoambility upon
the hand of the general assembly.
Ei.iah Cabk,
i Governor
That the legislature will do as the
governor suggests would certainly
seem to be the only thing that could
be done. The penitentiary has suf
i fered greatly during the past two
years on account of the fall in the
prices of farra products, raised on the
state farms, and by freshets. This
,1 accounts in great measure for the
i I pressing ueea oi a larger appropria

Presented Last Evening as a Token
of the Esteem of the .Minority.
A day or so ago the fusion majority
in the senate did Mr. Doughton the
courteRy uf presenting him with a
handsome silver service and of speak
iiV of him with kind, feeling words as
a token of its regard; last evening in
the house the democratic minority came
back by giving speaker Walser a gold
watch as a token of its esteem. A
curious state of affairs prevails at the
capitol, a democratic presiding officer
of the senate and a fusion speaker of
the house. Yet two more conscien
tious, fair and impartial gentlemen
never presided over the legislative
bodies. The presentation last even.
ing was made by Mr. Robinson, Mr.
MoClammy occupying the chair. Mr.
Robinson made a speech that shewed
clearly that he appreciated the con
sideration with which he and other
members in the minority had been
treated by the speaker.
Mr. Walser responded in happy and
pleasant style. There were other
speakers.

Tar Heels" are "the stuff"
The latest is Mr. J. P. Beckwith,
who only a few years ago took a sub
ordinate position under with Savan
nah Ocean Steamship company. His
salary was just enough to support him
$40 per month. But it is the same old
story. Up and up he worked his way
until on March Oth he was appointed
general passenger and freight agent,
with offices atNew York and a salary
that will keep a whole pack of wolves
from the door. Mr. Beckwith was
raised in Smithfield and is known here
He is a cousin of Mr. B. C. Bechwith,

Stand.
But was Still Unhurt Mr. Edward
Stranghau's Narrow Escape.
Last eveuing Mr. Ed. Straughan,
who is a compositor in the Visitor
office, had a narrow escape from death
or serious injury. As it is he is sore
and stiff and every movement causes
him exquisite pain. This is how it
happened.
Last evening Mr. Straughan visited
the News and Observer office to see a
friend compositor, who works there.
He went up the side steps of the build
ing, leading to the composing room.
The landing of the steps is 20 feet
from the ground and at one place the
railing has been torn down. When Mr.
Straughan came out he made a mis
calculation and, as there was no rail
ing to stop him, fell off the landing to
the ground. Some of the Observer
printers heard him fall and ran out
expecting to find him dead. He was
unconscious but soon recovered and it
was found that, beyond a number of
severe brusies, he was unhurt. Mr.
Straughan will lose nothing by his
accident except the price of a bottle
of liniment and several day's work.
Last evening the house passed a bill
providing that the agricultural de.
partment and the A. & M. cojjege
shonld be consolidated. The. bill was
vigorously opposed by Mr. Lineback,
that republican free-lance who dares
to bolt caucus action, but it pas
just the same. The management goes
to the fusionists, for the president of
the state alliance is to be manager and
a board of directors is to De elected
later. Mr. Lineback's bold stand
against the bill cannot be too warmly
commended. But Mr. Lineback has a
curious way of doing and voting just
as he thinks right, regardless.
The bill provides for the manage.
ment of the agricultural department
by the president of the state allianet-
and a board of nine directors to be
elected later, and that the same board
be the board of directors of the A. and
M. college. Mr. Lineback said an act
of congress provided that the college
should be forever separate from, any
other institution. If tne legislature
wished to lose $17,500 which the
general government gave the
college, the way to do it was to pass
this bill. He denounced it as out
rageous and asked the house to bur j
it so deep that not a bubble wonld
ever rise. Mr. Hileman said the com
mittee on retrenchment and reform
had reported the bill,' and had re.
ported it weeks ago to the joint cau
cus of populists and republicans, and
that the latter had decided to sup
port the bill and had ordered this par
ticular bill drawn. He made a thrust
at Lineback for daring to antagonize
a caucus mandate. Mr. Lineback
voted straight througb.with demo
crats against the bill.
