WORLDS FAIR OPINION.
Appropriation Not Valid and
Auditor Norman's Course
Approved.

The Worlds Fair decision by the
Court of Appeals was handed down
yesterday. Chief Justice Holt de-
livered the main opinion of the court,
holding in substance that the Auditor
was right in having the question of
the validity Of the bill tested, for it
was not properly passed and he
would have been liable on his bond
for paying out the appropriation of
100000 for which there was no
authority in law. Judge Pryor de-
livered another opinion, holding that
while he did not believe that the
Governor or any other officer could
go behind the enrolled bill, it was
clearly not only a right of the
Auditor, but his duty as guardian of
the peoples interest, to have the
question adjudicated before paying
out the appropriation. Judge Ben
nett delivered third opinion, hold
ing that while the Auditor is merely
a ministerial officer who would ordi-
narily have no right to question the
validity of an act. still in this case.
which is exceptional, as between
two agents of the State, in which
neither had any personal interest,
his course is approved The court
general agreed however that the
Legislature had the right to pass the
appropriation, but this right now, is
admitted by everyone, will never be
exercised by the present assembly.
The opinion is further reaching in
it's effect than the Worlds Fair APP
preparation, for if that bill was not
constitutionally passed, it follows as
a matter Of course that the election
law, which is in precisely the same
attitude, is also invalid and this may
make questionable all the recent
State election, both as to Presidential
and Congressional candidates as well
as to judicial and county officers.
The Governor, by this opinion,
while sustained in the point he raised
in his veto of the former revenue
bill, il placed in the position of not
only signing an invalid act, but after
even its validity had been questioned
by himself of approving claims on
the treasury to the amount of $25, 900.
which he sought to make the Auditor
pay under such an illegal appropria-
tiOn act

In an address at an Alliance meet

Fowler, Of Clifton, said:
That the invasion of English capital
lists has cost us more money, hard
times ana misery than our civil war
did. That Great Britain, Austria,
France, Germany, Belgium and other
nations, have a governmental system
OF t~elegraphy, while we are compelled
to pay to the Western Union Tele-
graph Company, an annual dividend
of from $50 to APO per cent on it's cap
ital for the use of lines for both public
and private purposes. In 1858 this
company started with a capital stock
of $317, 600. In 1866 it's dividends were
$17, 600, 600. In 1870 it's dividends were
$41, 600, 600. In 1891 it's capital stock
had been watered up to 500, 600, 900.

creasing the demand for gold 6y the
demonetizing of silver; that while the
demand for gold has doubled, the sup
ply has remained stationary that to
increase the demand for an article and
not increase the supply. is to increase
it's value in the same ratio you increase
the demand; that silver was demOne-
tized to double the value of the re-
mainder and rob the people to that ex-
tent; that the two old political parties
were guilty of this Infamous cOnspir
acy. These writer's have sold them
to the money power of Europe
for filthy lucre. A standard of values
is that which is used to measure the
.necessaries and luxuries Of life, and it
should have uniform volume because
other things being equal, the volume
of money determines prices. If the de
mand and supply is the same this year
it was last year, the price should be
the same, and as the demand and sup
ply is about the same per capita it was
in 1865, yet the gold dollar will meas
ure twice as much now. We know it
is not q correct standard to measure
values. JAMES MURDOCH

FOR DISCUSSION.

MAGNOLIA, n. c.. May 2S.
Mr.. MISUNDERSTANDING that the best
way 10 bring about any reformation
is a free and full discussion through
the press, [ write to offer a suggestion.
l think we ought to have a law on
statute books requiring every voter to
show his receipt or some other good
evidence that he has paid his taxes for
the year next preceding the election or
not be allowed to vote.
A man who will not pay his pOll-taX
to help support the government should
have no voice in that government or
in the selection of it's officers. There
are numbers of men who are able to
pay their taxes, but who will not be
cause they have nothing the sheriff can
sell, and yet such an ones vote counts
for as much as the largest tax payers
in the State,
Brethren, my suggestion is this:
Brings this matter up in your Sub-Alll-
n discuss it and then in your county
meetings in July, and let your delegate
to the State Alliance know your views
on the matter.
And again, let tn brethren all over
the State give is their views Of the
subject on both sides. l would like to
see the objections, if any. to such a
law. l am decidedly in favor of such
a law myself, and l know that mum
bers of my neighbOrs are with me, and
| have never heard an opinion ex-
pressed against it. Such a law would
wrong no one, and might add to
country and State funds.
If a man would give up his right to
vote rather than pay his taxes, all
,I-l+ no vrC,,1I - III &c I:S, Q-o~,oo
