IT WON 7 BE PRESSED NOW
It Might Interfere With Some of
Hanna's Schemes.
THIS IS THE OPINION IN WASHINGTON
Klutz Analyses The Bill and Declares il Re-
evolutionary and Without Precedent. Pear
son Opposes il and Declares it
UNEQUAL and Utiust.
Especial to News and Observer

Washington, D. c., Dec. 1.-THE Crom
packer Bill to reduce the representation
of the South in the apportionment con-
tinues to be subject of general discus
sion among the members. It is generally
believed the bill will not be pressed at
this session of Congress, because it may
interfer with some of Hanna's plans and
schemes.
l saw Representative Kluttz this morn
ing and in response to a question he
said
II have not the slightest fear of the
passage of the Crumpacker Bill 1t is
violative of the plain, mandatory provis-
ions of the Constitution, is without prece-
dent and revolutionary in the last de-
gree.
Il cannot think Judge Crumpacker ex-
poets or intends to seriously press the
bill, as he is too good a lawyer to ex-
pect Congress to commit itself to such an
unconstitutional injustice.
in advance of any judicial construction
of the North Carolina Constitutional
Amendment, without any enumeration of
the number of voters alleged to be dis
franchised under it, his PROPOSE
ton is to arbitrarily announce that
fully one-half of the voters of the State
have been illegally disqualified thereby
and upon this unsupported assumption to
reduce the States representation one
half. The mere statement of the propo-
sition, shows its absurdity. North Caro-
lina's increase in population entities her
to at least retain her present number OF
representatives. and if the size of the
House should be materially increased, it
would entitle her to another, making
ten members.
THE Crumpacker Bill therefore pro-
ceeds upon the assumption that one-half
the voters of the State have been dis
franchised. when it will be remembered
that only about one-third of the popula-
ton is colored and that a considerable
proportion of this number are qualified
to vote under the amendment, it is APP
parent how gross an injustice would be
done the State by this cutting down of her
representation, even if the amendment
The news & observer. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1894-current, 1900-12-12

should be declared unconstitutional and
imperative. 1t will be remembered too
in this connection that the ground upon
which the amendment is attacked is the
allegation that it only DISTINGUISHES ne
groes, so that under this contention, con-
siderably less than onethird of the voters
of the State are affected by it; therefore,
in the worst event, the Crumpacker re-
duction would be grossly unjust. | re-
peat that / have no fear that this or any
similar bill can become law. l do not
believe it will ever get out of commit
tee. AS a member of the Census commit
tee, shall not only have the opportunity,
but the great pleasure, of defending the
interests and the good name of North
Carolina
On leaving Judge Kluttz | met Repre-
sentative Pearson who, when asked for
his opinion on the Crumpacker Bill, said:
81 am opposed to it and shall speak
against it if it comes up in the House.
My reasons for opposing it are first: l
deny that the amendment to our State
Constitution has been adopted by the
qualified electors of the State. | enter
the plea of non est factum. l deny that
the apparent result of the election in ia
vor of the amendment is the act and deed
Of the State When her great seal is
affixed to the declaration that the amend
ment received a majority of $4,000 of the
honest and legal voters of the State that
seal will be affixed to a lie.
Second. even if the amendment had
been honestly adopted by clear ma
iority of the electorate Of the State | am
absolutely certain that the amendment
will be declared unconstitutional and of
course it would be unwise to predicate
rational legislation upon an act which is
null and void.
:" Third, even if the amendment had
been honestly adopted, and If it were
clearly constitutional, the Crumpacker
bill is unequal and unjust in the proper
tionate reduction of North Carolina S
representation. / have had several in
terviews with Judge Crumpacker and he
seems willing to concede that his bill
makes too deep cut into North Caro-
lima. as compared with Louisiana and
South Carolina
1.-The frauds in the August election,
even outside of the black belt, were so
bold, so gross and so grotesqne, that no
living witnesses are necessary to yestab-
lish the falsity of the returns. The regis
tration books and the poll lists, which
have been carefully examined, and in
many instances copied, prove that the
returns are unbushingly false on their
face

ALL RIGHT IN BISCUITS.
But a Poor Medicine.

Common soda is all right in its place
and indispensable in the kitchen and for
cooking and washing purposes, but sodS
was never intended for medicine and peo-
pie who use it as such will some day re-
greet it.
The common use of soda to relieve
heartburn and sour stomach is habit
which thousands of people practice, al
most daily, and one which is fraught with
danger, soda gives only temporary relief
and in the end the stomach trouble gets
worse and worse.
The soda acts as mechanical irritant
to the walls of the stomach and bowels
and cases are on record where it accu-
mulates in the intestines, causing death
by Inflammation or peritonitis.
Dr. Harlandson recommends as the SAT-
est and surest cure for sour stomach
(acid dyspepsia the daily use after meals
of an excellent preparation, sold by drug
gists under the name of Stuart's Dyspep
sit Tablets These tablets are large 20
grain Iozenges, pleasant to the taste and
containing the natural peptones and di-
gestive elements necessary to good di
gestion and which all weak stomachs
lack.
larly after meals digest the food prompt
ly and thoroughly before it has time to
fernent, sour and poison the blood and
nervous system.
Dr. Wuerth states that he invariably
uses and recommends Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets in all forms of stomach derange-
ment and finds them certain cure, not
only for sour stomach, but by causing
prompt digestion of the food they create
a healthy appetite, increase flesh, and
strengthen the action of the heart and
liver.
They are not cathartic and contain
no violent drug but are intended only
for stomach diseases and faulty dges-
ton, and generally acknowledged to be
the most reliable cure for any stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets now enjoy
an international reputation and popular
ity and are sold by druggists everywhere
in the United States, Canada and Great
Britain.

What Are Stronger Than Facts?

Aulander, N. c., Oct. Is, 1900,
To Mrs. joe Person:
My little boy was sorely troubled with
impurities of the blood, and the result
was boils and sores on his body to such
an extent that he could not rest while
lying on his back or side, but for three
weeks he had to lie with his face down,
and turn his head from side to side to
rest it. After consulting prominent
physician he told me to try your Remedy,
which / did. After using it short time
he was completely cured, and his general
health restored.
At the same time that my little boy
was afflicted with these sores and boils,
his bowels were in very bad condition,
and this medicine effected COMP lete
cure of them.
| recommend said medicine as a Great
Remedy, and would not be without it in
my home.
