THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE.

The usual perfunctory meeting of the
Electoral College was converted yes
terday into a live, real, delightful mass
meeting for silver, where eloquence
rcigned and enthusiasm was at high wa
ter mark. The House of Representatives
adjourned to the Senate chamber, the
Senate having adjourned to permit the
college to meet in the chamber, and the
galleries and Hobbies were crowded with
ladies and prominent citizens OF Raleigh
and visitors to the city.
1t was rarely representative gather
ing that lent interest TO an event that,
in view of the untoward result of the
election, was an empty form. The
speakers, some of whom had not thought
of saying a word, were inspired to lofti-
est eloquence, and the hearers were thrill
ed with new-created faith in the cause
of which Bryan is the great central fig
ure Mr.. Merritt, elector from the fifth
district, expressed his qualification at the
tutullsidSIlt AAAtNiAAASt otS AAlS liz A1ebu DCNA
pleasantly disappointed in the character
of the proceedings, and added that he
thought the electors had gathered ''to
bury Caesar, not to praise him."
If Mr.. Bryan had been elected, these
electors could not have gathered with
more SNShe spirit Of optimistic faith and
confidence in the future Of the cause.
Their supreme and glowing faith was
bfeathed into their speeches, it was
caught by the senators and members
the galleries felt the contagion, and the
clerks and laborers crowded into the
aisIes, conscious that words of truth, mo
mentous to future hope for humanity
were falling from the lips Of men as de
vout in their holy cause as were the Cru
saders.

When the rheumatism first pre-empts

to attack the heart. Usually it is compli-
Gated with kidney trouble. Certain it is
that the kidneys, when aroused by the

give rise to rheumatism and dropsy. In

A GOOD BILL.

a few weeks ago, the people Of the
State were menaced BY the fear that the
Seaboard Airline Railroad would be
gobbled up by the Southern. 1t would
be equally as deplorable if the Seaboard
should gobble up the Southern. The
four independent systems in the State are
necessary, and the State should protect
itself against the removal of competition
by prohibiting the lease or purchasing Of
competing lines except by legislative
sanction. A bill to this effect was
introduced in the House yesterday by
Mr. Pearson, of Burke. 1t is matter
OF so much Importance that we give the
bill in fun below:
1.-THE General Assembly Of North Caro-
lima do enact:
Section /. That it shall be unlawful
for any railroad company to purchase or
lease any competing line of railway or to
enter into any contract with competing
line of railway calculated to defeat or
lessen competition in this State.
"Section 2. That any citizen of the
State of North Carolina who will provide
for securing the costs as prescribed in
other civil actions, shall be authorized
on behalf of himself and other taxpayers
to institute an action to have declared
null and void any agreements entered into
by any railway companies, in violation
of the foregoing section of this act, or
where the State is interested as stock
holder in either of the corporations that
are parties to such agreements, whether
heretofore made or hereafter to be made,
either any citizen, who will provide for
securing the costs as aforesaid or the
Governor of the State shall be authorized
to prosecute on behalf of the people any
action for the purpose of having such
agreement declared void, and the Gov
ernor of the State is hereby authorized to
pay out OF any money, not otherwise
expressly appropriated, the costs incurred
ia the prosecution on behalf Of the State
Of any such action.

force from and after its ratification"
