Mr.. Daniels, a Republican Representa-.

Mr.. Daniels, Republican Representa-
tive from Dare, voted for the bill, and
here the represen tatives from all
that oyster section, from Beaufort, Tyr
rell, Washington and other counties
have given the bill their hearty support.
Is that not proof that the bill Is right
and dredging wrong? Why, Mr.. Presi-
dent, | have been out with the dredgers
aud if you ask them they viii tell YOU
II i wrong, but they make their excus-
by saying that ol hers are dong il and
they must get their share, Virginia
found ont it was wrong, but alas, too
late; MARYLAND found out it wa wroax 2
bat too late. These people = Tue Est
ern COUNTIES are helpless. WI -out ar
assistance they are IN the c! tches o TIE
money powers. We onght 70 do SOM
thing for them
Two years ago l favored src1 "A law,
but rs soon as it became known that
such an act was contemplated the lobbies
were filed On they cried, don't
pass that bill. Make strict law divid
ing the territory of the tongers and
dredgers' They wouldn't do away with
dredging aud the bill they passed was
not worth the paper it was written on.
If this business goes on for two years
there can't be q canning establishment
run il seven years. When that two years
has passed then these Gamers will say:
"We have demolished your lands now
you can look out for yourselves" When
that tlme comes it will take $3.50, 900 an
nually to protect the beds and keep them
up. / know what | am talking about
speak from a practical standpoint
have lived with those men who ask this,
aud have slept with them They are the
grandest people on this earth. The
grand old ocean near which they live
has taught them to be noble, to be chiv-
alrous, and | ask you, in the name of
heaven, to stand by these men and not
the representatives of these canneries.
The Government has said that it can
not protect US until we stop dredging
Lieutenant Winslow says he cannot do
1t. But if we go to work and pass this
bill as it comes from the House without
dotting an ~ or crossing a st" we will
have done the greatest thing for Eastern
North Carolina and will receive the
thanks of its good people,"
The speech was a good one, eloquent
and pleading and We regret we could
not give his exact language.
