Ingraham. to the effect that Henry Winthrop Gray az
receiver Of rhe North River sugar Refining Company,
not entitled accounting from the other men,
bers OF the trust Of the profits Of the trust since Mr..
Gray was made receiver OF the North River Company.
After the agreement by which the trust formed

Tor accounting from the trust and for the payment to
the North River Company OF its share of the profits OF
the rtS under the trust agreement The defendants
demurred TO the complaint and Judge Ingraham's do
ci,on upholds the demurrer and gives Mr. Gray leave
to amend his complaint Judge lngrsham says that
the partnership known the trust agreement dis
solved by law and that action necessary 20
dissolve it, that the agreement had been declared 10 be
illegal by the Supreme Court and that II is well estab-
lisled in this state that the courts will not enforce
such agreements. The court declares that this wrong
is continuing one, and while the courts will not
lend their aid to enforce Illegal contracts, will not
allow the fact that all the parties before the court
were wrOngdoers to be used II weapon 10 the
lngraham says, is not party to that illegal agree
ment and b not continuing business under it, nor has
lie any interest in having 1t cancelled As receiver,

Mr.. J. S. Carr, president Of the

called the Convention 10 order.
Presiden Carr said
After having taken the matter he
fore the Executive Committee of
this Association, and having advised
with the chairman Of the Executive
Committee OF the Democratic party
in North Carolina, have deemed it
advisable to call you together in con
vention. The fight between the two
parties in this State has now begun.
1t has been said "Old men for coun-
Gil and young men for war" We
accept that faithful proverb, and
offer our services, and are ready to
work for the cause of our country.
Gov. FOwle delivered the address
of welcome, which was gem Of
patriotic eloquence. Among other
things the Governor said:
The triumph of Democracy is the
triumph of economy and good gov
ernment. Why, what is it, my
friends, that North Carolina does
not owe to the triumph of Democrat
ic party? Look around yyu--which
is the party of progress? Which
party built the school houses aud
the agricultural college, and if al
lowed to remain in power will in
crease the apprOpr.at for the ed
ucation of the boys and girls of North
Carolina. OuI State finances, under
