velop taste for reading 1t is PROVIDED
in this bill that whenever in any school
district $40 is given by an individual or
individuals, the same sum shall be con-
tributed from the county and State school
fund, provided that not more than $5,OOO
shall be given by the State and county
each. With this incentive to the begin
ming of small Libraries, it is believed
that many school districts in the county
incorporated towns are excepted from
this act) will provide libraries for the
children of the schools. AS the appropria-
tion is not large, only those districts that
apply early will be entitled to the as
sistance.
5. The liberal appropriations to the Uni
versity, Agricultural and Mechanical Col
lege, and the State Normal and Industrial
College show that the State is in earnest
in the great work of education, and is
resolved to make the advantages Of its
great institutions so excellent that none
of it's sons or daughters need leave the
State to receive an Industrial, classical OF
normal education. The provision for bet
ter facilities for education were provld-
ed not only for the schools for the white
children, but for the colored children as
we'll
6. The transfer of the management Of
the A. and NJ College to the Board OF
Agriculture is the most important steT
taken for industrial education since the
Watauga Club secured the establishment
of that College in the city of Raleigh
That college is primarily intended tc
make skilled and wise farmers and me-
chanics. he $4,000 appropriation for
textile school is long step for the educa;
tion of skilled men for the mills. Th'
Board of Agriculture will devise and eX
ecute an equally progressive step for th'
! better training of the youth of the Stat'
for the farm. The agricultural Interest,"
| will not predominate in the future as il
! the past in North Carolina, but at leas
! this generation will not live to see an
other interest lead agriculture in thi
! State 1t is therefore wise to give tn
Board of Agriculture control and manage
| ment of this institution dedicated to tn
education of young men for mechanic
and agriculture.
z There are other measures for tn
educational progress of the State, anon
them $5 900 to the Cullowee Normal Schot
in Jackson county; the appropriation
the orphan asylum, institutions for tn
education of the deaf. dumb and blin'
and many measures looking to the estal
lishment of graded schools in the towr
and villages of the State.

have done their work time alone will tell.
1t is certain that the men who had it in
charge labo-ed with devotion to party and
State to make a wise apportionment, and
it ought to be certain that all the districts
will go Democratic in 1902, and ii is GER
tain unless there arise divisions and dis
sensions in the party that are not now
apparent. The mountain Democrats, led
by Speaker Moore, stood for the appor
tionment as it passed, and believe under
it that the Western Democracy, stimu-
lated by a fair chance to win will show
larger maiorities in 1902 than in a num-
Der of years. The Eastern Democrats are
all pleased with the apportionment in
their section. The complaints come from
the Democrats in the lower end of the
Ninth, Eighth and Seventh district. The
upper counties are well pleased to be
Joined to strong Democratic counties and
promise to make such gains as will con-
vince the dissatisfied counties that the
arrangement is good one.
No re-districting was ever done that
turned out altogether as was expected.
In 1891, when the committee came to
make senatorial districts, every member
of the committee thought that Sampson s
l,UUU uHtpEElltu DtuIOSIdJ LI6JOl ily
would always keep that district safe, and
that the Senator from Chatham would al
ways be a Democrat. There was doubt
about Guilford and the Durham district,
but none about Sampson and Chatham. In
less than four years, Sampson and Chat
ham were firmly anchored in the Fusion
party, while Guilford the Durham dis
trict and other doutful districts, became
staunch Democratic district. Such are
the mutations of politics!
The spirit of this Legislature was freer
from political acrimony than any in a de-
cade. The Democratic majority was noted
for its courtesy and consideration of the
minority. From the opening to the close.
while there were several debates upon
political topics, there was not an incident
that was not creditable to the Justice
of the majority and to the good sense of
the minority. Upon every proposition
that YVES even quasi-politicaI, the Repub-
licans received every consideration they
desired, and when the gavel fell they
all united in a farewell that had in it

BUSINESS METHODS.

The Legislature was business body'
1t looked more closely than usual INTO
the business methods pursued by the
State institutions and took steps TO secure
reforms where they were needed. Ihey
sternly rebuked those institutions thaC
upon small appropriation had put Ia the
foundation for large buildings, and those
institutions that came up TO the Leglsla-
ture with a debt not authorized by the
Legislature. A stringent act was passeu
forbidding any institution OF the State IN
curing any debt except in cases OF pec-
essity and then only when approved py
the Governors Council. Appropriations
were made to pay off all debts and
notice was served to all the world that
the institutions were not authorized to
contract debts.

after not to employ young children and TO
reduce the hours of labor to eleven. II is
believed that this agreement of most
mills will extend to all because the de-
mand for labor is growing great and no
mill working longer than eleven hours
can get help when the mills working ele-
van hours are in the market for labor. a
labor law is one Of the certainties of the
future. 1t is to be hoped that the agree
mont will have the force of statute.
The news & observer. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1894-current, 1901-03-24

The Legislature has measured fully up
to it's duty TO education. 1t now re-
mains for the people of the State by in
teiligent zeal to make these measures
effective. If the folks at home do as we'll
as the Legislature has done, the needed
educational revival will revolutionize the
State for good Provision is made whereby
any district can vote an additional tax
for better school facilities
CARE OF THE INSANE.
The Democratic party in its convention
last April made this declarations
1--WE point with pride to the record of
the Democratic party in the building and
management of the institutions for the
care of the unfortunate insane, and pledge
the party to so increase the appropria-
tions for this purpose as that every needy
insane person in the State may be cared
for a public expense"
This pledge was kept to the letter The
appropriations for insane asylums, addi-
tions to buildings and maintenance, were
increased $127, 725.25 per annum, and the
care of insane "at public expense" was
limited to the needy or the INDECENT
in accordance with the Supreme Courts S
Interpretation of the Constitution.
NEW ELECTION LAW.
The passage of a perfectly fair election
law-so fair as to silence criticism and
command approval--is one of the acts that
distinguished this Legislature. The elm
ination of the negro made it necessary to
change the election law. Provisions vital
to prevent negro reBeating, owing to the
migratory habits Of many of the race,
are out of place when the suffrage of ne
groes is restricted to these who are
educated. The new election law repre-
sents the wisdom of the best men in the
Assembly and will result in an end to the
campaign rant about honest elections"
Each party selects its own representative
and every needed safeguard is thrown
around the election to make certain that
it will be fairly and honestly conducted.

TEMpERANCE SENTIMENT.

The temperance sentiment has grown
greatly in North Carolina If the action OF
the Legislature is a good indication. Bllls
for absolute prohibition for several couh-
ties were enacted, including such counties
as Bladen. Sampson, Duplin and Cumoer-
land, and more churches have been incor-
porated than ever before. SeveraI ans
pensaries were established and some aool-
ished. The deep interest taken IN all
propositiops for or against dispensary
show that after the amendment goes
into effect, the dispensary question will
loom UP as a leading issue for time in
many counties.

THE PERMANENT ROLL.

The election law was drawn with spe-
cial reference TO the Constitutional
Amendment-to carry it into effect. a
kindred act, carefully prepared. was en-
acted providing for the registration of
voters under what is popularity known as
"the grandfather clause" Under it., the
voter whose name is placed on the book
is there forever and is not subject to any
of the tests educational or otherwise re-
quired in the Constitutional Amendment.
The personnel of the General Assembly
was high 1t embraced ex-Congressmcn,
ex-judges, leading merchants, bankers,
manufacturers, railroad men, farmers, in
surance men, editors, educators, public
men and business men Of all calliDgs and
professions. The debates were marked
by ability and knowledge, as well as by
a spirit of courtesy and fairness OGlv
once or twice during the entire session
was unparliamentary language employed,
The passage of a voluminous act, codi-
flying, with changes, tine corporation law
of the State, is regarded by it's promoters
as one of the most important acts Of the
General Assembly. 1t RENTS TO the Sec
retary of State the business of chartering
all except quasi-publc corporations, in
creases moderately the fees, and is said
to be modern, model Jaw meeting the
demands of this corporation age.
The power to name the directors of
State institutions, formerly vested In the
Governor but in recent ears vested in
the General Assembly, was. in nearly
every instance. conferred upon the Gov
mn II -.
ministration responsible for the conduct
of the State institutions and it was proper
to give some authority in their manage
ment or control.
The charter for quite number of new
railroads would seem to indicate that we
are on the eve of much railroad construc-
tion in North Carolina. There is still
large sections of the State not reached
by the iron horse and it is to be hoped
that the New Century will witness great
increase in railroad construction.
The passage of a fair libel law, upon the
request of the State Press Association.
rarks forward movement in legislation.
The law heretofore in operation in North
Carolina has been the same that prevail
ed before the act of printing was per-
fected The new law is in keeping with
the progress of the age.
STOCK LAW LEGISLATION.
Many laws extending the area of the
stock law were adopted. showing both the
growth of sentiment IN favor of It and
the rapid destruction of the forests.
The antitrust law is an Improvement
upon the laws heretofore enacted. II will
require a test to see if trust can drive
two horse team through it.
There we're more able and brilliant
young men in this Legislature than any
previous body in the recollection of this
writer.

THE EX- X-CoNFEDERATE sOLDrER.

No previous Legislature has done SO
much for the eX-Confederate soldier. The
tax rate for pensions was Increased, mon
ey appropriated for new buildings, the ap-
preparation for maintenance increased,
and a new and better pension law en-
acted. Besides the employment of ex-
Confederates, and spirit of helpfulness
of the brave men who nobly responded
to the call of their State characterized
the body. There were many soldiers in
the Legislature and the young men We'd
