CAPTAIN MILLS FUTURE.
He May Enter The Government Department Of
irrigation Once More,
Belief That He and His wife Have
Become Reconctied = The Captain
Considers That MS Business.

Capt. Mills spent today In attending
TO some business matters and may or
may not leave the city within day or

offered his old position ON the govern
ment department OF irrigation and is
inclined to accept II for the present.
The Inference has been drawn that
Capt. Mills and his wife have become
reconciled. but this. too. Is only an in
ference.
Their children make the strongest
kind OF bond between them. and II
developed at the trial that affection still
exists on both sides. Capt. Mills. takes
the position that this matter Is exclu-
sively their business. and is not dis
cussing II on the street corners. or any
where else. for that matter. They have
ben together more or less ever since

MIR. Allen (Neb.) offered a resolution

Mr. Pitchard IN. c., called up his
resolution relating to the proposed

voters Of the State.
After reading the resolution, MIR.
Pritchard addressed the Senate in sup
port Of 1t, his address being In answer
to that delivered several days ago by
Senator Morgan.
nj. tIlktNdIu sdll the question IN
yolyed the peace and welfare Of the ma
tion and the stability Of our instltu-
lions. The Constitution guaranteed to
each State republican government.
II Senator Morgan's contention pre-.
vailed, there would be pure nullifca-
ton. He said the Democrats Of North
Carolina were attempting to deprive
certain citizens OF guaranteed rights,
just as the Democrats OF Louisiana had
done. Mr.. Pritchard said that II Sena-
tor Morgan was right then the Demo-
cratic party ought 20 have the courage
to propose the abrogation of the NJ
teenth amendment, which gives the
negro the right Of franchise. He said
the adoption OF the proposed amend
/ ment to the North Carolina constitu-
ton would sound the death knell to the
aspiration OF every Zeb Vance Demo-
crat In the State
While II Is claimed that the object
Of the proposed amendment was to Sc
cure white supremacy, said Mr.. Prit-
chard, the real purpose was TO disfran-
chise thousands Of white and colored
citizens. and thus create an office-hold-
ing class. There would be no fear OF
negro domination In North Carolina,
declared Mr. Prtchard, because the
whites outnumbered the blacks by two
10 one. He regarded the attempt 10
amend the constitution as an effort to
legalize fraudulent methods Of the
Democratic party.
