SATURDAY EVENING, JANUARY 28 L19. 25 CENTS A WONT TOR. fs GENERAL ASSEMBLY Local Option Bill WasRere ferred TEXl'ILE jDEPARTMENT Lively Debate In the House But Other wise It Was a Very Quiet Day in Both Bran ches. The Senate was called to older at 10 o'clock. Prayer was oered by Senator Jones. A petition from the members of the various churches of Ooldsboro to estab lish a s ihool for the reformation of youthful rjiiminals and a petition from the citizens of High Point for the re peal of the merchant's purchase tax were referred to committee.

The cal -r.'.lar was taken up and bills as follows passed final reading: To re peal ?hapf.e-r 112. laws of 1895, and chap ter 172, lews of 1S97 (relating to the ox tension f the boundaries of the Mt. Airv to.viishii). This bill p. actically enforces the collectfon of a $l',000 bond issue, subscribed for the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley Railway); to au thorize 'the treasurer of1 Haywood county to pay back school claims; for the relief of Sarah McLeary, a colored school teacher in Chatham county; to incorpu ie the town of Mt.

(In explaining this Ijill Senator Fields suggested that the particular evil guarded against was the Boophilus bovis. or a particular tever tick, which particular tick la a disease especially contagious and deadly to cattle.) A bill to 'iepeal section 3113 of the Code tar.'.e up. This bill provide that a local option election may be held in any month during the year, instead of in June as the law now stands, and on a petition of one-fourth of the citizens of a township Instead of one half as formerly. Though not germane, the general principle of local option was brought under discussion. Senator Bryan did not believe in lo cal option. He said that prohibition did not prohibit, and only led to evasion of the la w and the curtailing of man's rights. High license say $500 or $1,000, or even r,,000 was the best policy. Senator Mclntyre did not agree with this view. He said that 10 years ago in Lumbertoa women and children were not safe from drunken men and that general lawlessness prevailed. This was under a high license system. Now, he said, there was local option in Lum berton; there weie sobriety and decen cy and not 100 arrests in a year. He urged that religion and the women and children of North Carolina be given the same chance, at best, as the bar room people of the State. Senator Ward said that he wished to propose an amendment to the bill; that cities and counties should be Included In the bill in addition to townships. For he said, as the measure stands whisky could be driven from one town ship to another where there was no po lice surveillance, and to be effective Its provisions should apply more gener ally. The bill was finally re-referred to the committee. A bill to allow Greensboro to Issue bonds passed final reading, as did bills to authorize the payment of school teachers in Halifax county for services rendered in 189"; to amend the charter of Gastonla; to amend chapter 159, Laws of 1S95 (this is Rountree's bill), and .prevents judges from issuing an Injunction or restraining order on a tiuo wairanto proceeding against a de fendant In office; to incorporate the Carolina Bonding and Surety Com pany; to amend chapter 108, Laws of 1895, authorizing the commissioners of Moore county to elect officers In Case of vacancy.

E. Maloy, of Halifax; to establish a graded school in a new district in town of Dobson, and providing for a special tax assessment. Alexander of Rutherford introduced a bill to create the "Vance Textile De partment" of the Agricultural and Me chanical College. The bill simply amends section 9, Public Laws 1887, chapter 410, adding to said section: "It shall be the duty of said Board to es tablish and maintain a department of the college in which shall be taught the manufacture of textile goods." The bill introduced by Winston of Bertie tf make cohabitation between the white and black races a felony, punishable by imprisonment in the county jail for not lesss than four months or in the State's prison fur not more than five years, came up for con side, ation with, a favorable report from the eommijttee. The bill evoked considerable discussion. Speaker Con nor called Hon. Locke Craige to the chajr and took the floor In advocacy of the measure. Ex-Judge Allen and Jus tice opposed the bill on the ground that It would promote blackmail and fraud. An aye and nay vote was demanded. On the vote the bill passed its second reading by.a vote of 62 to 24. Ray of Macon objected to the passage of the bill on its third reading. Winston declined to give bis .consent to postponement and the bill passed its final reading. A "clincer" was then put on the bill by a motion to re consider and lay on the table. The bill to regulate the measure ment of timber came up, with an unfavorable report. A substitute was offered by the committee Jones of Pender, the author of the bill, said that there was no uniform rule for timber measurement in the State, and that such lews were usual. Winston of Ber tie offered an amendment excluding Bertie and Hertford from the opera tion of the bill. He declared that the proposed enactment would work a great injustice to the seller. Leather wood opposed the bill. He said it would do Western North Carolina a great injustice and was the worst measure vet introduced in the Legislature. He declared further that the bill, if en acted, would drive capital from the State. Rountree favored a uniform rule for the State. He said that such an important matter t'hould bo care fully considced and he asked that the bill be re-committed to the Committee on Propositions and Grievances. Coun cil of Watauga declared that few, if any. States in the Union had a law for government of timber measurement, and he opposed It. It was agreed that the bill should go to the Committee on Propositions and Grievances for con sideration. The bill changing the name of the town of Wolsey. Buncombe county, to Royce, passed all of its readings. The bill increasing the number of county commissioners of Perquimans passed its readings.

He Says the Situation in the Philip pines Argues for Ratification. By Telegraph to the Times-Visitor. WASHINGTON, Jan; 28 Sena tor Piatt addressed the Senate today for a ratification of the peace treaty. The present critical situation in the Philip pines, he says, is an argument for, not against, -ratification, since the treaty means only for a greater liberty for the Filipinos. He says that Senators have always been found to argue constitu tional objections to new policies, but it was the main purpose of the ma kers of the Constitution to devise a plan for government, not to ordain pol icies. Senator Piatt was listened to with respectful atten Hon by all. The Senate postponed the steamship subsidy bills and took up the pension appropriation bill. Senator Mason made a Tequest for a vote on his resolution, declaring the policy of the government not govern the people of any other natfon .on Fri day next. Senator Hoar of Massachu setts made a similar request on his res olution declaring the Filipinos ought to be free and Independent was headed off. by objections. MORLEY PAID ABOUT $50,000.

A SAD MISSION Mrs. Ripley at the Bier of Her Sou HER ONLY CHILD City Officials Act as Pall Bearers cf the Remains of the Young Man Who Suicided Here Thursday. Mr. Ripley, of Buffalo. N. Y., ar rived in tli!- city at 2.1(5 this morning to carry the remains of her only t hild, Marcus Furwell Ripley, who suicided in the room of Hon. Joslah Turn v ;n the Rranson House early last Thurs day morning, hack to her northern home for interment. Mrs. Ripley, was met at the station by Officer .Mullen and escorted to the Yarbo.o. This morning Mayor Powell, Chief of Police Norwood. Tax Collector Lumsden and other city officials called on her and afterwards acted as pall-bcaivis and escorted the remains to the station this ln i.iiing. Mrs. Ripley appears to be a highly cultured woman, apparently just pass ed th" prime of life. She visited the ' establishment of Mr. Jidin Brown this morning and saw the rerrrains of her son. Of course, she was deeply affect ed, but her self-omtrol was truly mar velous. She said that she never before saw In i son have beard, and thjs was why he was judged to be older thai! he was. Mis age was twenty-three. Mrs, Ripley's husband is a retired Methodist minister in Buffalo, having formeriy be;n editor of the New York Cliristi. n Advocate, and' at one time president of the New York State Board nf Charities. Mrs. Ripley says her son has always been extremely nervous, and his nerves were shattered by an accident which befell him when he was nine years old. Last year he attended Horn "f School, and won the orator's medal. Last summer he entered Wake Forest Law School. Professor Sikes, who conic down yesterday and stayed with tin- remains until Mrs. Ripley ar rived, says that young Ripley was very bright, a fine debater, and the besl-posKd student in college. Pro fessor Sikes recalled an Incident in the class in political economy when the Died S.-ott decision came up inciden tally and Professor Sikes made some comment upon it. Ripley disagreed with him and astonished the class by quoting verbatim at length from the decision. Ripley's companions say that he never drank whiskey unless the ef fect of cocaine was dying out and he could not secure more. He sprinkled cocaine on tobacco and rolled it into eiga'iettes. Professor Sikes says that Ripley was the soul of honor, except about this terrible habit, and when un der the influence of cicaine he was thoroughly unreliable. He had re ceived $25 from his mother Monday, but this was left in his .room at Wake Forest and in his haste to secure co caine he borrowed a dollar from a stu dent at the depot Wednesday, jumped a freight and came to Ral.igh. He was of a ictiring disposition, spent nearly all his time in his room reading and studying. His closest friends at college were two ministerial students and to them he was devoted. .

The presence of the cold wave In the central valley in conjunction with the Florida storm is causing snow in Ala bama, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina and Virginia. The cold wave extends over the en tire central portion of the country, with the lowest temperature this morning a Bismarck of 22 degrees be low zero. AGONCILLO'S DENIAL.

Jan. 28 Agoncillo authorized a statement today ifi&t he had never sent a telegram advising the Filipinos to fight independence, and that no telegvam was Intercepted be cause nont was sent. He cabled his trovernment to continue, the same frlendshin that borne on the battle field with Spain. QUAY CONTEST. By Telerranh to The Times-Visitor. HARRISRURG, Pa., Jan. 28. The only representative of anti-Quay fac tion present today was Senator Flinn, who attempted to resist any attempt to elect Quay by revolutionary means: The ballot sjood: Quay, 30; Dalvell, 1; Jc-ikn, 1. No election. ODD FELLOW ITKMS. We are pleased 10 note ihe renewed activity in Vapital Lodge. The Encampment in Charlotte seems to be somewhat on the boom. Grand Secretary Woodell has just re turned from a successful t. ip to El kin and Wilkesboro. The new Lodge at Shelby will be in stituted in a short time, and Gastonia is to furnish the 'team. Grand Secretary Harwell of Tennes see has determined to let everybody know that the Ordev is on a big boom in that State. He sends postals and has printed on them, as well as on his envelopes, that the gains for 1898 were 213 in the Encampment branch, 270 in the Rebekah branch and 1,"34 in the Subordinate branch. It is quite cheer ing to note such substantial gains but we doubt the propriety of such public ity of it. Keep your head and heart full of good thoughts toward your liivtlr.cn. and bad ones will lind no room. The .' lip that is full will hold no more. Popu lar Odd Fellow. Some men in the Jodgp may be com pated to the farmer's ytdie of oxen. One wjs named Able and the other Wii ling. On being asked why thty had such mimes he exclaimed that one was able to pull all tile loud and the other was w illing that he should. -Ex. The ruin of most men dates from r-onio vacant hour. Occupation is the armor of the soul. Thi.e is a satirical poem, in which tile levil is represented as lishing for men. and fitting his bait, to the tasio and business of Iris prey; but lb-- idler, he said, gave him no tt'Oilde, as be bit at the naked honk. The New Age h. 'never you see a man get up in the Indire room and say "Noble Grand. I move that the lodge go into a recess for a few moments, for tile purpose of having a little social chat with the M ranges who arc here tonight." you can wager on it that man is as near the perfect Odd Fellow as you will find within the walls of a lodge room. O. F. Sifting. The man who will drop his member ship in a Hied and established Order for some new promise-every thing-give-nothing concern is liable to buy a ."gol'd brick" from it sf. eet faker or be beaten by a three-card monte sharper. When you have a good thing stick to it. No one can be honest and give you sunn thing for nothing. Bundle of Slicks. Build up the Eivampment. No man can be "an Odd Fellow" until be has sojourned ill the tents of the Patri archs. Tile lessons of the Encamp ment are sublime they reach out and beyond the lessons of tile Subordinate Lodge as the teachings of the uni versity supplement and exceed those of the primary. A man may not be a betti man and Odd Fellow because he is a member of the Patriarchal Or der, but he can be and will be, if the lessons there taught do not fall upon sterile soil. No young Odd Fellow should slop until he reaches the En -campiiK-nl."-Companion. TONE OF THR MARKETS NEW YORK COTTON, vlonths. Open Olos. Tanuary ( 14 "ebruarv fl 15 March. - G 10 April 10 May .... .
