Speaking of the suffrage amendments everywhere, he said: : "This amendment,.' in common with all others, places a certain amount of power in the hands ot registration ofli cers, but this is not unusual. The pres ent election law gives them certain authority. Some one. must lie trusted to put the law into effect. White men, whether foreign or native-born, need have no fear. The registrars will not darn disfranchise them. "Machines were dominant in North Carolina before the negro was disfran chised, but the conditions are very dif ferent now. There arc many men who prefer to go into a fight without the support of the organization, believing that they are handicapped rather than aided by it. I am not a machine man. (iet rid of the colored vote and you will find the machines toppling over on all sides. It is the colored voter that ce ments, forces what would otherwise be antagonisttic to them. "lit North Carolina the Republican party has improved by the elimination of the colored voter. Its members feel respectable, whereas they were former ly somewhat ashamed of their party connections. In the presidential elec tion seventeen counties gave a majori ty for Mr. Roosevelt and the Republi cans are thinking about carrying the State. 1 do not believe that they will be able to do it, but they do not seem to be discouraged because they arc in the minority. "I here is much in the newspapers just now about the President's Raleigh speecn which is the popular way of re ferring to the President's latest and most pronounced views with reference to the regulation of railway rates. Poli ticians and press -alike have taken up the iuea of the 'President's Raleigh speech' in discussing this most import ant of all public questions. The Ral eigh speech will no doubt be a fre quent subject of reference during the coming session of Congress." Charges of incompetency have been preferred against : Postmastei J. L.

Mr. Smith had vised a number of vouchesr for the payment for this work, and these aggregated $11,001) with other bills to conic in. He thought the amount' to date would reach $14,000. Mr. Smith wrote these reports and submitted them to Allan Forma n, who owns the Telegraphic News ISureau, and $1 a lino was paid by the Mutual Life for the service.

These were sent to about 100 papers, but Smith did not know whether the papers were paid for in serting them.

Mr. McClintock practically ad vocated no laws for the insurance com panies, except a certain supervision to give the reports publicity. He thought the public could take care of them selves and that publicity was the best law. Asked how far this view was shared in-official circles, he thought he was somewhat of a missionary along that line. Mr. McClintock was to have been on tne stand again in the afternoon ses sion, but during recess he was seized witn a slight attack of vertigo, to which he is subject.
