the General Assembly of North Carolina

scribed by Article V, section /, of the
Constitution. But no male person who
was on January l. 1861, or at any time
prior thereto, entitled to vote under the
laws of any State in the United States
wherein he then resided, and no lineal de-
Scendant of any such person shall be
denied the right to register and vote at
any election in this State by reason Of his
failure to possess the educational qualit-
cation herein described: Provided, he shall

TWO YEARS RESIDENCE.
The feature as to tn.o-ycars' residence
colonizers. The declaration that all must
stand or fail together is to prevent the
courts from constituting that one section
stands and another fails. The Legislature
id not even in June adjourn sine die,
but took a recess until next Wednesday,,
i'll order TO still further safeguard the
amendment. The State Supreme Court is
largely Republican and there are six Re
publican or Populist Superior Court judges.
Hence the incessant care and watchful-
ness of the Democrats.
The Republicans and Popuists, who
pose us two parties, are really one, as they
have been these six years past. They
have arrayed themselves against the
amendment; which course is an act of the
greatest folly.
Governor Russell is opposed to the
amendment. but he has not taken any
active part in fighting il. The opposition
leader has been Marion Butler.

on this amendment, select State and coun-
~ officers.

the wearel or disarrange the hair. The
hat-holder is provided with a light wire
frame, which is fixed in the crown of the
hat, forming an eyelet IN the centre Of the
top and one at either side. A rubber cord
Is passed through these eyeets and
attached to two metallic forks. When 1t

distance beyond the point of entry, which
divides the pull evenly throughout the

these words:

almost unanimous vote IN the house must

test then will be an appropriate time for its
consideration and for taking measures to
answer It. Until then we can never know
the grounds of objections Great Britain
may choose to make. The senate, en-.
gagged in a negotiation with Great Britain
which may or may not result In an agree
ment, cannot afford to refuse to consider
bill so important to the country as the
Hepburn bill, merely to await the pleasure
of one.third of that body. The senate as
a part of the treaty making power has no
more just right to suspend legislation on
this subject than the president, who Is the
other part OF that power. has to suspend
legislation by his order"
THE house committee on census by a
vote OF seven to six agreed to report the
Hopkins reapportlonment bill, leaving the
total membership Of the house at 3s7, as
at present, and rearranging number of
state delegations. The bill will not be
taken up until after the holidays. The
only change in the bill was an amend.
ment requiring that the several congres.
sional districts Of the several states should
be composed Of contiguous and compact"
territory. The purpose Of the bill Is to
prevent gerrymandering. Under the bill
the following states will lose one represen.
ta,ive each: Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky,
Maine, Nebraska, Ohio, South Carolina,
and Virginia. The following will get one
each: Illinois, Louisiana, Minnesota, New
Jersey. New York and West Virginia.
Texas viii gain two representatives.
Based upon present political divisions,
neither party will gain advantage In the
new reapportionment proposed in the bill.
The republicans will gain five and lose
tive and the democrats will gain three and
lose three. The basis Ot representation
will be one representative for each 2o8, ,o68
inhabitants. By the terms OF the agree.
ment made In the committee, the bill will
not be taken up until after the holidays.
