MEAN POLITICAL RUMORs.
There was no quorum at the Board
of Education's special meeting, called
last night to consider the resignation of
DR.. K. r. Tybout
Il was reported on the streets yester-
day that the FIVE majority members Of
the board, on account of the antagc-
nistic feeling of many of the people at
the boards work of the year, would
either remain away or refuse to receive
the resignation because It would make
an additional vacancy to fiji at next
months election. This was dispelled
however, by the appearance at last
nights meeting of Mr.. Frazer.
Had the majority so desired, il might
have prevented last nights meeting
and caused the resignation 10 hang fire
until the next regular meeting, which
would then make it too late TO give tho
legal ten days notice of vacancy, as
only nine days intervene.

Tybout's resignation and secured It

NORTH CAROLINA LEGISLATORS
Substitute Railway Lease Biil-FiIi-
MISUNDERSTANDING Epithets.

RALEIGH, y. c.. March Sat l O'Clock
to-day the House OF Representatives took
up the Grant substitute bill 0ease bill
OF the North Carolina road. and up TO
this hour, II o'clock, it is still in session.
The enemies OF the lease discovering
that they were in the minority, resorted
to filbustering to delay action. During
the afternoon and night Representatives
Cook. Lusk, and sutton occupied the
chair, all opposed to the lease, and re-
fused to recognize the majority. and by
dilatory motions and other tactics have
been able TO prevent the majority from
adopting the Grant substitute. The House
stands about 60 for the lease and q
against, on motions as recognized by the
Chair.
Speaker Heilman. for reasons Of his
own, was not in the chair, notwithstand-
ing the demand of the majority for him
to take his place as Speaker.
Upon several occasions during the ses-
sion insulting epithets were freely ex-
changed, and once or twice members
were only prevented from coming to
blows by the interference Of friends 1t
Is clearly the object OF Governor Russell
to obstruct legislation on this bill, and
it looks now as If all other needful legis-
lation would so by default, as the Iegis-
lature will adjourn next Tuesday.
The Grant bill is Il substitute for the
original BILL and passed the Senate last
week. and was sent to the House
This bill does not materially differ from
the lease made by the North Carolina road
to the Southern, except in the term OF
years, from ninety-nine years to thirty,
which makes it a compromise measure.
The House adjourned at midnight with
out taking any action.
