PECULIAR ECONOMY
During the entire session the mem
bers practiced q peculiar economy
which, however, does not speak wei
for themselves. First they threw
away Sl6, 600 to pay the special con
stables, whose only duty consisted IL
bulldozing Republican voters at th,
last election and carrying Wilmington
for the Democratic party.
Though perhaps II was nothjnl
more than gratitude for them TO pa,
their tools, as had 1t not been for thei
work some OF those who occupied
seats In tho General Assembly woul,
have been at home all winter attend
ing to other business, instead OF max
ing laws at tho direction OF the bose
which deprive the citizcns of the prit'
cipal city In the State of the last YES
tige of self government.
Several other Instances of like ma
ture might be mentioned. but they ar
familiar to all who have watched thei
proceedings. ON the other hand the
refused to allow the militia paltr,
$4,000 year. and thereby broke up tn
National Guard. And then again vine
the old soldiers came and asked 10
