against and known it to be a fact that
cattle from the mountain counties or be

counties could not be moved in summer
time to the lower lying eastern counties
without danger from loss by death. 1t
is also known that even If such cattle
are moved In winter time there is also
danger of losing them during the COM
ing summer. Moreover, cattle are Of
often lost when moved only distances
and surroundings are changed.
The majority of losses in this city
were due either to exchange OF cattle
or to introduction Of strange cattle
upon the pastures of these cattle.
It is the disease which has annually
been devast ating the herds Of North
Carolina for more than one hundred
and fifty years, and preventing any
improvement of the a Of its herds
excepting through importation Of
young calves, which cause the quar-

WHEREAS, The Declaration OF Inde

form of Government that might be
progressive and perpetual, states:
''That all men are created equal;

ness: that to secure these rights, gov
ernments are instituted among men,

governed"
We mold, therefore, that to restore
and preserve these rights under a
Republican form Of government, pri-
vate monopolies Of public necessities
for speculative purposes, whether OF
the means Of production, distribution
or exchange, should be prohibited, aud
whenever any such public necessity or
utility becomes a monopoly IN privGte
hands, the people Of the municipality,
