The l'nxjtirr Funtur, organ of the State Alliance and one of the chief ahrit-kera of "reform," had thla edlto- i ial In the en ly day of the minion of the LegUlaturu: We have ittblihd platform and editorial showing a hat the people want, time and again. Ik low are some of the chaciroa wanted, and the atten tion of our legislators, regard lot of ttartv. U airain called theivlo: Fiist A new and honwt election law. Korond. A ier cent. Interest law, with sufficient iiialti and no loop- holoa. Third. At lat four month' free whooU fur both races annually. Foui th. Effective anti-trust laws and Mli iters and judges'who will aoe that thv are enforced. Fiftn. A State reformatory for tv formation of youthful criminal. the Sixth. A complete change in the pre sent county government system wither repeal or radical modification. -Seventh. SU-im to wipe out the In famoua homeotead law. the father of the diabolical chattel mortgage ay tern and a complete business and credit demoralizer. Klghth Either repeal or enforce the orcHent State Income tax law. Ninth. Apoint a code coinmitiaion with enough common eonae and legal honesty combined to simplify and shor ten The Code ao ordinary minds can underatand It Mr ao doing- the Su preme Court will not aplit into two or ihree faction, for there will be fewer knotty caeca to decide. ' Tenth, ltoduce exitemtos, lop off fix wherever practicable, and follow tne guidon rule In everything. The gentle men who forget to carry out the winhos of the people will be requested to keep off the graaa hereafter. Heginuing at the end, we have to remark that "the gentlemen" who' composed the late Igisla ture certainly did "forget to carry out the wishes of the poo pie," and, unless these have lost their senses, "trill be requested to keep off the grass hereafter' iNow, let us see now things have gone, even judged by the "reform" standard: (1) We have a "new" election law; whether it shall prove to be an "honest" one, time will dis close. (2) A 6 per cent, interest law has beeu enacted; Whether there are loop boles in it, and whether it will do the State more good than harm, we shall find out hereafter. (3) The school tax has been increased 2 - cents, and as an offset to , whatever good might have been accomp lished by this increase, the head of the system in every county lias been . destroyed county superintendents and boards of education abolished and the schools left to drift about with out a hand to direct them. (4) No new an ti-trust laws were en acted nor any amendments made to those already in force (5) A State reformatory has been pro vided for at an expense of $5, 000 a year to begin with and 1 10, 000 a year thereafter for sup port this statement upon the authority of the CaucaMan, though our own reading led to the understanding that the re formatory bill had failed. (6) You have your "change in the pres ent system of county govern ment," though it lacks much of being t "complete," seeing that the Legislature is still electing magistrates, but such as it is .we dare prophesy that you will be sick enough of it before you are through withiL (7) 'The in- a iamous homestead law'; not "wiped out' nor amended In anv particular. (B)4The present State income tax law" not repealed nor any additianal provision made for its enforcement. (9) No code commission, with or without common sense, appointed. (10) No expenses reduced, no fees lopped off, no golden ' rule ob served. Then the Proffreuive Farmer$ files ten "demands", and it will claim that three of them have been answered: election law, 8 per ctnt interest law, county government law. It may turn out that provision was made for a reformatory, and that 18 cents school tax, against 16 cents now, win give four months schools, though we don't beKeve it, nor do we believe that four months of so-called, schools under the fiew system." without any one to give direction to them, would be a cfhV.pnt as the two and a half nr thre months schools are now .The rrocrf$givt Farmer can make nn tnrtof claim that its other fir "i1f.ma.nfU" have been met nr that there was any sort of ef fnrt tn m ftp t them, and it should. ! upon Us own stowing, turn in and help ns and all other good .si lroon thla iranir off the IbUIKU w J' o f. I grass nereaiir. There was no pretence at do ing five of the ten things that , this organ of "reform" declared to be necessary legislation, but if . it will eive us its ear for a mom- ent we wia can n urunuu w some things that were done that it did not ask for: . The State tax was increased, fnr fTpnpral nurnoses from 22 to 24 cents: for all purposes from 41 cents to 454 cents a total of 14 cents on the fiuu valuation. and odious . and 'discriminating special taxes, never before heard rr in thft hL&ie. were levieu. n. criminal court circuit was es tahiished under the protest of everv county in it, in order to give a place to a partisan lawyer am! Senator. The expenses of the legislative session were in creased $5,000 over those of the last Democratic Legislature, and the sens and daughters and wives of members of the" Legislature were Quartered upon the state, some of these women working at the same tahles with buck ne croes. Resolutions in honor of a necro mlscejrenationist were adopted and an effort made after wards to He out of it Time would fail us to tell of the deeds of a Legislature the most infamous of any. but one and pushing that one closely that has ever sat in North Caro lina. Its members, while candidates, vapored about extravagance, and have increased the public ex penses. They insisted on the stump that salaries and fees should be reduced, yet made a reduction in no single instance. They refused to reduce their own per diem. They voted down a resolution which provided that no memlier of the Legislature should fill a place of its creation, and tilled up almost every place created or that was made acant, with its own members, to its own shame ana to me puoitc scandal. The party of the op position has inveighed for years against the free pass evil and yet tne Fusion legislators bit at passes ' like pikes. 1 hey re fused to Incorporate in their election bill a - provision that election officers shall be men of good moral character. Their rev enue bill was denounced by one of their own men on the floor of tbciloKse as the most infamous measure ever proposed in the State. They did not scrupple to charge each other with falsehood and double-dealing, and as for bills Introduced, no member. Democrat, : Republican or Popu list had auy security that they would not be stolen, clranged, or the memoranda on them, altered so as to make them tell lies. To crown all, a plastic Speaker who waived his prerogative at the beginning of the session in compliance with what all the State believes, notwithstanding his denial, to have been a bar gain, counted a quorum to get bills through, rushed through in the defiance of all law and pre cedent, and at last directed the negro at the door to close it upon the representatives of the peo ple, in order to keep in the nail the Democratic representatives an act which very nearly pre cipitated a riot; an act far more nigh -handed and offensive than many which have precipitated riots in this country. Tso; this did not crown all. The crowing act " was the leaving at Raleigh of a com mittee of three members, two of whom were drunk during the session and both of whom have been drunk ever siuce one not only drunk but down to investi gate charges brought against the judges and lawyers of the State by a woman who has had more or lessilitigationMivorce and other law-suits, and has been cast in one or more of her suits. This committee is drawing $4 per day, salary and expenses besides, and one of Its drunken members said .to the OUmver' Raleigh correspondent Friday that he was studying how to run up ex penses. They may continue in nominal session as long as they choose, and their per tiiera and expenies are to be paid by the State as long as they profess, to sit . The record of this session of the Legislature has not yet been half told. When it is fully made up and exposed in all of its hid eous deformity a deceived arid outraged people will turn from it wi.h disgust and loathing.
