BUCKET
SHOP BILL.
CAUSES DISCUSSION-MANUFACTURERS
WANT HEARING
Bill To Subsidy County fairs. County
Commissioners To Regulate Auto
mobile Speed., Bills Still Being
Introduced. Income Tax .
Listing
Special to Journal.
Raleigh, N. C, February 2. The
committee on finance have decided on a
new means of getting income tax re
ports, these are to be made direct to
the State Auditor, tax Hst taken
to ask listers of taxes whether they
have over $1000 income from property
not taxed and upon their saying yes, U
report their names to the State Auditoi
and to furnish blanks upon which swort
returns to the latter are to be made.
The general public is not objecting U
paying the income tax, but does object
to the publicity given. The Democ at ;
irty is committed to an income tax
but, is entirely willing to defer to such
wish on the part of property owners.
The committees will arrange a section
of the new revenue to cover trading
tamps and voting contests.
In the Senate bills were introduced
to permit county commissioners to regu
late speed of automobiles on the public
highways: to encourage agriculture by
the holding of county fairs and aiding
the same by paying one-third as mucl
as the fair raises; to require the re
running and re-marking of boundarj
lines between North and South Carolina:
to amend the code by allowing service
by publication in action to set aside de
crees of divorce; to give Yadkin county
prohibition.
Bills were passed amending the law
of descents by providing that illigitimaU
children may inherit from their eommon
mother, provided they get nothing that
left by their father; to validate judg
ments under which sales of contingent
remainders have been made.
The Senate tabled the House resolu
tion to repeal the one previously adop
ted by the Senate to repay to State
Treasurer Lacy $374 stolen from his of
fice by W. H. Martin, clerk to his pre
decessor. State Treasurer Worth, the
vote being 19 to 17. Bills were intro
duced to allow either race to vote
special tax for school purposes, for the
race so taxed; to provide that fines am!
judgments shall draw interest from date
of rendition.
The House took up the special order,
the bill to prohibit bucket shops, Wood-
ard of Wilson oftVing a substitute say
ing it would destroy such places. Mc-
Ninch said he was assured by large
manufacturers, the MH would seriously
cripple their legitimate business, he
felt they should have an opportunity
to examine the new bill, and be heard
before committees. He was anxious
to destroy bucket shops, bat not willing
to taterf ert with any?jut or 'necessary
trad conditions of business mea. The
blQ was referred. It ts vary strict and
makes the establishment of an. office er
place where information regarding
ductus ting prices of stocks) bonds or
commodities is given, prims-facie rri-
dene of violation of law.
A WD passed to rnaka homestead con
veyed by homesteaders subject to sale

SINGULAR ABSENCE OF DOG TAX
LEGISLATION. "
Watching Legislate ri. Sout'i Dakota
Cass Again Qui it. Raleigh
Dispensary Active. Dis
tillery Towr.s Busy
For Self Pres
vation, Raleigh, Feby. 2. -A. G. Ricaud,
left for New York at noon today, his
visit here in regard to the bonds of the
class in which are the South Dakota
ones having amounted to nothing. It
is not known whether he will return or
not He has some new move, to make
but will not now say what this is.
There ig no end of lobbying before
the legislature. Some of the members
do not like lobbying at all and would
like to have it prevented if they could
while others say every citizen has a
.ight to be heard in any quest'on end
also to have lawyers to work for him
anywhere provided he is able to pay
them.
State Secretary Gilbert Pearson of
the Audubon Society is here, and is
watching game legislation. Some per
sons want to open the doors by permit
ting non-residents who own property
in this State and those who are invited
here as the guests of residents to
hoot without paying the gun tax, but
on the other hand is argued that if this
step was taken it would literally result
in throwing the State to outsiders as
there would be many opportunities of
evading the law.
For the first time in the history of
legislatures in the past half century no
bill has yet been introduced relative to
taxing dogs. By the way, it is said
that theGeorgia dog law is an excellent
one and it might be well for the legis
lators who are interested in the protec
tion of both sheep and game-to get that
law, study it and do something along
this line. Dogs have not only kept
sheep down in North Carolina but half
starved oriVs and mongrels, with some
hunting blood in them destroy great
quantities of bird eggs and of young
birds too, as sportsmen well know. The
proportion of worthless dogs was never
so large in the State as at present.
The Raleigh dispensary continues to
do what may be called a rushing busi
ness, from $400. to $500 a day. Tues
days and Thursdays are bottle days
when bottles are bought most of them
from persons who make it their busi
ness to gather them. Last Tuesday
for example 7,000 bottles Were bought
of which 4,000 were half pints, 2, 100
pints, 160 quarts and 360 beer, these
purchases being about an average.
Blacks and whites, men and boys bring
in the bottles. The little packages, the
1ialf pints and the pints are, as is readi
ly seen the most popular. Into barrels
all bottles and flasks which are not stan
dard measure are thrown and broken.
The dispensary bottles Its own goods
and gives standard measure,
Ons of the most powerful lobbies is
working to save Williams and other dis
tillery towns. Williams, who by his
personal Influence secured charter to
his place two years ago is on hand
directing his fight,' and has able work-
era, Including Alfred M. Waddell of
Wilmington. Many lawyers are em
ployed by Williams, Shore, Advance
and other distillery places. Considera
ble feeling la developing. . Members of
the Legislature say there is actually
doubt as to whether these places will
be abolished, and some of them .iprM.
unbounded astonishment and regret at
this, as they thought abolition would
ha prompt. Republicans are freely
ridiculing legislature and offering to
bet it will'aot repeal charter of Wll-
Dams. . '
