Of the constitution, or can other facts
and circumstances before and after the
issue of writ of madamus in the White

making up it's evidence. Some contend
the result is a big victory for the pros
ecution, others Ia the decisions will
help the defense in the next big fight,
which will be yer h admission of
legal opinion of numbers of lawyers in
support of the judges construction that
acts of legislature were unconstitution-
al. They say defense made sham fight

LENGTH OF THE IMPEACHMENT
Estimated by the Parties In
Interest-why h Code Commission
Bill was Defeated-That Cotton Seed
Meal Tax-Anorher Pardon.
Messenger Bureau.

Raleigh, n. c., March 16.
There is naturally much interest as
to how long the impeachment trial will
last. Chairman Allen OF the house
board of managers was asked that
question today and replied: II think
We can finish it by the end of next
week" Mr.. Graham, of the board,
said: 1T will depend o the num-
Der of witnesses put on for the de-
fence" Senator Justice said 1T seems
to me it can be ended by the 18th in
slant, possibly by the oath" 1t is very
evident by the proceedings yesterday
meal fight.
Representative Allen says he brought
about the defeat of the bill TO create a
code commission because 1t was SC
amended as to be worthless. Instead
of three commissioners at 81, 500 a year
each, he wanted one at $1,000 and a
secretary at $500; so as to get high
class work.
1t turns out that the cotton seed meal
manufacturers in this state desired the
tax imposed of 20 cents per ton, which
Representative Mclean knocked out
Their reason for desiring the tax was
to protect themselves and the buyers
also, as great quantities of this meal
are being shipped into this state from
South Carolina n Georgia, short in
weight and very deficient in quality;
some being as low as 5 per cent. Nc
Lean thought he a dom a great
mir but it seems he did not know
what he was doing.
Governor Aycock pardons Joseph
Kearney, an old man of Franklin
ty, convicted of assault with a gun,
knife and club, upon aged Martha Bass
and her family. The evidence shows
that the Bass family had tormented
Kearney to the verge of madness. He
got drunk and went to their house and
there committed h assault. No n
was hurt and he paid the old woman.
Ed II. Lee, a leading cotton buyer
here, was asked today whether he ex-
pected an increase in cotton acreage in
this section. He replied: Yes, /
believe it will be much increased if the
planting conditions are favorable. I
can say how much the increase will
be. The weather has been very dry
and somehow 1 look for a rainy spring,
unfavorable for planting.
