Raleigh, June 14. It was nearly
midnight last night when the two Im
portant bills, the Constitutional Amend
ment and tht Election Law were finally
tlgned by the presiding officers' and de
livered to the Secretary of Blate, The
tlirose .Immediately adjourned nntll 10
o'clock today but the Senate Jiung oo
for half an hour after the Bouse and
then .also adjourned. , " ,
The principal change In the Amend
ment, outside of the term "qualified
voters'' la the addition of seelonS which
meets the objections of llie umld onts
aud which Is putln terms that cannot
be mistaken. It reads as follows: 1
Sec.. Enry person presentlns; him
self for registration shall be able to read
and write any section of the Conslltu
lion in the English language; and be fort
be a hall be entitled to vote, be shall havt
paid on or before the first day ; of May
of the year la which he proposes to vote
his poll tax for the treviour year as pre"
scribed by article 5, section 1, of tht
Constitution. , But no male person, who
was, on January 1st,-. 1807, or at . any
time prior thereto, entitled to vole undei
the laws of any State-; In the United
States wherein he then resided, ami no
lineal descendant of any such person
shall be denied the right to register ann
vote at any election in -this State bj
reason of ixU failure to possess the. edu
cational qualification herein prescribed;
Provided, he shall have registered In
accordance with the terms of thfs sec
tion prior to December 1 1008. ".
Tbe General Assembly shall provide
for the registration of all persons enti
tled; to. vole without the educational
qualification herein prescribed, and shall.
iu or before Kovemoer 1, 19J8, provide
for the making of a permanent record ol
inch registration, and all persons so reg
istered shell forever thereafter have tbe
rlglit to vote In all elections by the peo
ple In this Stale, unless dtsquallilud un
der section 8 of this article: Provide!),
uch person shall have pard his poll tax
as aoovi) lequired
fee 5." That this amendment to the
Constliutton Is presented and adopted as
ODe indivisible plan for the regulation
of the suffrage, with the Intent and puT
pose to so connect : the different parts
aud i, make them so dependent upon
each other, that the whole shall stand or
fall together. ': ,
There has been a constant fight be
tween those who went to introduce bills
add those opposed to making further
legislation. It la hard oo . the momber
who has bill in bis pocket that be be
lieves essential to his county and Dem
ocrallo success, perhaps his coming back
to the next Legislature depends on It
Many members notified Ihclr people thai
they : would present no bills nd ire
saved the embarrassment ' Borne mem
bers bad 12 rr 15 bills somewhere about
their persons walling to spring them on
. i lung suffetlng Legislature. :
Tlio weather moderated duilog the
iiighl rid It Is some c oler today rid
'loiuly. It is a relief lo eveibody. 'iuc
Senate f nd House were ca'led to order
at 10 o'clock today.' lbs fear that many

a good attendance. . '1 be disposal oT the
chief objects of the session took the In,
tereit out of tbe occasion and the pass-

Mr. Branson opened the Senate with
prayer and referred feelingly to the
death of Senator Jackson and the strick
en family, . ''
Tbe joio-oals of both Houses this

PLATFORM FOR BRIAN.
Cannot Underfeketo Say Whatls Par-
mount Issue. .Leaves it to Con
: ,,ventlon. c . '
CbiCaoo, June 13-Hon. William J.
Bryan was in Ohlcago today and was the
ceute: of a great deal of politloal discus
alon, alt of It bearing on what may be
done at tbe Democratic National Con
ventlon, in Kausas City, July 4. ' -
The plalform to be adopted at "Kansas
Olty and also the Vlce-Presidentlalques
tion wei-e cooslderej at length. ' On the
question Of a platfoim, the tiead of dis
cussion" forecasts! to some extent the
differences of opinion which may arise
at Kansas City, even amon loyal Bryan
uieq. "The question Is whether the
money "'plank and other :. troublesome
legaoies from 1808 shaU. be handled by
reafiiimallon of the Chicago' pla.fj.-m In
lunp. or whether'some planks of the
ISOi platform, especially those on Jioney,
shall be 'itwrittaf".; ,
.' "I siyt as I have before mny times,-
Mr. Bryan replied, when asked what he
thought of the platform and Issues ibis
year, "that I think tho three big qnea
lions before' n are aauoey, trusts- end
Imperlallsnl.' ' The raonoy quoillon, of
course, Includes the question ot sliver
and of paper money; (he question of Im
perialism Includes militarism' and ' tbe
policy of which oar 'National-. Adminis
tration's work in the Philippines and its
attitude oa the Boer, question are sam
ples :V:V,J';:V''i?v!;
"I believe the principles adopted In
the plat'orm, of 1890 were adopted as a
part of the party creed,' never to be de
parted from.. I do not think those should
be or can be departed. , from, this yi ar.
That platform, however, must be added
to as new Issues arise.- As I do not ex
pect to be a delegate to the National
Convention, I cannot presume to discuss
the form In which those principles shall
be stated In tbe plalform- to be adopted
there. . . yr- '- :'
VI cannot undertake to say what will
be lbs paramount tsue No man can
One thinks one question Is the biggest
and another man thinks another Is.
"What do I think should bo done iu
the PhilipplnesT I filuk this country
a ould tell those peiplo that we aie
there only for the purp ise of eitahlUh
Ing a stable government aul thit when
we have done so we should turu the Is
lands over to the people and protect them
against f jrelgn aggression, as we
have protected tbe South American re
publics. - . -
- "The conditions ahead and the plan of
campaign? Why, conditloua are much
more favorable to us than they were at
this time In 1803. The Republican party
Is on the defensive. It will talk p-osper-ity,
of course, but we'll ba-willing to
iaki' the votes of all the people who
have not had their shire of prosperity
and , leave to- the I Republicans the
votes of the people who have had tlinlr
si) ire. ..';
"I should say our 'plan of campaign
will be to carry every 8tnto lo tho
Union. C'tiiiuot curry all nf tlinin f I
would not speak so harshly o( the peo
ple of any Htuln as to say thul I thought
