HOW IT IS MANAGED,

\ North Carolina correspondent
adds fact not generally known in
relation. to the disfranchisement of
negroes in North Carolina. It is true
that even under the illiteracy amend
ment some 10000 negroes would be
qualified to vote if that we're the only
bar, for that number can read and
write, but there is another obstacle.
Under another law every applicant for
registration must be able to prove the
day and date OF his birth by two COM
petent witnesses, defined in the law as
qualified voters. Thus the mother is
not permitted to testify. It would be
difficult matter for almost any white
man to produce two voters who could
swear to the day and date Of his birth.
Infinitely more difficult must it be for
a negro, in a state where, the >registra-
tion- officers would insist upon the most
exact compliance. with the law in the
case Of all black men attempting to
register.-3hi1lneGpolis t1janes.s,<, ,s.,.,

EXAGGERATED.

The tremendous Outcry against trusts
has not unnaturally led the public to
conclude, that they have obtained con-
troll of by far the greater number of
our manufacturing industries. That
we have, given too much credence to
the statements that. have been made
with. regard to the modern octopus
becomes evident when. it is learned
that the number of separate manufac.
turing establishments have increased
during the last decade II per cent
The census just taken shows that
whereas in 1890 there were $4,000
such establishments in the United
States, in 1900 they had increased to
500, 900. In other words the number
of individual manufacturing establish
ments has increased three and one-half
times as rapidly as has the population.
If it is true that the trusts have prac-
tical control of our industries these
facts do not Indicate that they exercise
their power to- decrease their number,
or to decrease the number of operatives
employed. The probability is, how
ever, that the extent Of the operations
|of trusts have been greatly exagger-

Of last night, the Democrats declaring
that Beckhams majority will not be
less than 10000. Sixty-two precints are
still out and most of them in the ex-
treme sections of the state, in the First
and Eleventh districts.
The Democrats assert that the Repub-
hcans are holding back the Eleventh
district, while the Republicans say the
Democrats are holding up the First dis
trict for the showdown when it becomes
definitely known just how many votes
are needed. The Democrats say there
is no doubt whatever of the result, but
the Republicans say they will be salts
fed only when the official count is made.
They say there has been the most fla
grant padding in Owen, Franklin and
other counties, but no details are at
hand in support of the assertion.
Democratic leaders on the contrary
say there has been 40 fraud whatever
and that they will be perfectly satisfied
to stand by the official count.

Notice OF Committee Meeting-Legis-
1ature Gets Down to Work.
ATLANTA, Nov. S.-Fhe feature Of this
mornings session of the house was an
other and an entirely new attack upon
the proposed new depot. 1t came from
Mr.. Hall of Bib, who leads and largely
constitutes the opposition.
The bill authorizes and orders the
state treasurer to invest the funds now
in the state treasury, in bopds-Geo.gia
bonds. Its effect, If adopted, would be
TO take the money which it Is proposed
to use for the depot and employ IL so
that the sum would not be available.
Wherefore, even If the state decided to
erect the structure, there would be no
funds with which the same might be
done.
Another bill of some interest was In
troduced by Mr.. Blue Of Marion. It
contemplates such an amendment TO the
present laws as will compel Insurance
companies, in the event of losses, TO pay
to the insured the face value Of the pol
icy, and not, as Is now the case, the
amount Of loss sustained.
IL addition to these measures MIR.
Houston of Fulton introduced his bill
providing for bureau of labor and Mr..
Blalock bill providing that the bonds
deposited with the state treasurer be
registered.

heatlon OF committee meetings were

PROGRESSING VERY SLOWLY

WASHINGTON, Nov. additional re.
ports from Mr.. Conger today record the
progress of the efforts being made at
Peking to bring the foreign ministers
into agreement as to the basis of negoti-
ations with China The department
still declines to make public any of the
details in the deliberations OF the min
listers and it appears that this reticence
is matter of international agreement,
the purpose being to avoid presenting
any of the differences that may arise
from time to time to the notice of the
Chinese plenipotentiaries who might use
them to serve their own ends.
However, the statement is reiterated
that progress Is being made toward
satisfactory conclusion and it is hoped
that within a short time it will be pos.
sible to at least initiate the formal ne.
gotiations with the Chinese plenipoten-
tentiaries.
