in North Carolina. there being ample
room for more railroads when located
as this one opening up a new and fertiie
territory and rat the same time bringing
our producers, and
t11rers in a closer touch with each other.
ut has not been the policy for many
years for the trunk lines 20 build new
roads or to extend their present lines,
except to connect up some dlSJolnted
lines of their own, hence we must certain
ly look for further rail development to
our smaller and independent roads and
unless they receive encouragement and
substantial aid from it's citizens, counties
townships, cities and towns these roads
will never be built. We notice under the
charter Of the Raleigh and Eastern North
Carolina Railroad cities, townships and
counties can by a majority vote of their
qualified voters subscribe to the second
mortgage bonds Of this railroad bearing
6 per cent. interest, giving in exchange
their own bonds bearing 5 per cent. in
terest for the counties and cities. For
instance, this road from Raleigh to the
interior of Hyde county would be about
10 miles and a branch line through Snow
Hill to Kinston, forty miles. Total two
hundred and ten miles, assessed at t
thousand per mile at ! per cent. would
be $21 900 taxation, it would take over
$500, 900 of 5 per cent. county and city
bonds to equal this investment, say moth
ing of an equal amount of 6 per cent
second mortgage bonds being given in
lieu Of same, which interest must be paid
in full before one dollar is paid to the
stockholders, promoters or incorpora-
tors. 1t would not be unreasonable TO
imagine in a very few years the second
mortgage bonds Of the railroad being
equal or more valuable than the county
or city bonds and will go a very long
way to pay the principal (f required of
county, township or city bonds, say moth
ing of the enhanced value of country and
city property which this road traverses.
We want this road and as soon as pos
sibe and we sincerely hope the railroad
people and those along it's line can get
together without delay and see what is
necessary in the way Of subscriptions,
tights of way terminal facilities, etc, to
show the proposed purchasers of the
first mortgage bonds that our own peo-
pie have faith in this enterprise"

Greensboro, N. c., Feb. 25.-The Exc
cutive Committee appointed by the last
NJ. P. Conference, met here last night to
decide upon a location for the proposed
college for young women and men.
At a late hour, the contest being be-
tween Henderson and Greensboro the
latter place was selected. A special
committee is today inspecting three sites,
offered by citizens of the city to deter
mine upon the most eligible one.
1t is understood tina the committee,
now that the question of location has
been settled will at once take steps to
secure the necessary amount to launch
the enterprise. 1t is said that the Con-
ference Will not undertake the matter
unless at least SIS, 900 is on hand or in
sight, as a basis for the great under
taking. Prospects for securing this are
bright. Greensboro citizens have pledged
about 81. 900 and will give more. The
committee probably already has pledges
and other assurances sufficient to make
the total of $50, 600, leaving only $25, 600
to raise.
Greensboro is greatly gratifed at the
| prospect of another high class educa-
tiCnal institution here.
The following members of the commit
tee were present last night: DR.. F. r.
Harris, of Henderson, chairman; Messrs.
w. c. Whitaker, Enfield; George B.

Mr.. Carlton. Of Dlplin. gained consent
TO introduce a joint resolution permit
ting the joint committee Oh Justices OF
the Peace 10 employ a clerk.
The resolution was put upon its imme-
| diate readings and passed.
REVENUE BILL PASSED.
Governor Doughton then called for the
| consideration of the Revenue Bill on its
| third reading.
Mr.. Carlton sent forward an amend
| rnent to tax the express companies $50
| FER mile instead of s2-0u.
Mr.. Stubs offered to amend the tax
On liquor dealers 50 that retail dealers
should pay only $50 every six months
instead of 800. and that each county
may, not shall, levy a tax similar to that
of the State.
Mr.. Moore, of Cumberland, proposed
to amend the Merchants Tax by putting
one tax Of soc. On every 81 600 worth
of business done.
Mr.. McRae offered an amendment that
no county, city or town should levy any
additional tax TO the $500 imposed upon
| lay persons for drawing deeds.
Mr.. Morton, speaking OF the tax on ex-
press companies, asked if the tax on
Any oN1N chNCA -
was.
Judge Graham said it was not a ques-
zion of doubling or trebling a tax, but
of levying a tax that was just and fair,
and in accordance with their receipts.
Judge Graham called for the ayes ami
noes ON this amendment, and it was lost
by 80 to 81.
Mr.. Moore's amendment was lost.
Mr.. Dobson's amendment TO make the
pension tax &c. instead of DC was next
put to the House, and voted down.
Mr.. McRae's amendment was next
voted down.
Mr.. Stubbs, speaking to his amend
ment, said that the proposed tax would
amount TO 50 a day on saloons, together
with their town license tax. In his
county it would be absolutely prohibitive.
But if this is voted down, at least let
the county use it's judgment about levy
in the additional tax.
Both of Mr.. Stubs amendments were
voted down.
Mr.. White, of Halifax, proposed to put
back the original committee report on
the oil tax, instead of the substitute
adopted. The original tax was $50 on
every tank exceeding 500 gallons, ard s.
on each wagon. The substitute puts a
5000 license tax on each dealer, and SOC.
on each 500 Of gross sales.
Governor Doughton then offered an
amendment to the substitute reducing
The license tax to 800.
Mr.. Whites amendment was voted
down
Mr.. Self, of Catawba, offered to amend

creased. He is given only one assist
saved. For expenses $500 is allowed.
Under this law, Mr.. Lucas thought
that "a very large revenue could bd
1aised. Heretofore the law has not been
enforced, especially the culling law. This
bill is very strict on that subject, and
no COMMISSIONS can pass an oyster less
than 2@ inches in length. Thus the beds
themselves are preserved.
Then there is a feature providing for
the scattering Of shells, which it is be-
lieved will enlarge the States oyster
beds.
The old law did not definitely fix the
lines of the beds. This does fix these
lines, SO that trespassers can be con-
victed after they are caught.
Heretofore the expenses of conducting
this business We're something over S27,-
COO, and the revenue something over
$l9, eco. Not a cent of the expenses comes
from the State, but from the receipts Of
the industry.
Mr.. BlOunt sent forward an amend
ment to make the Chief Commissioners
salary $1,000. He said that we had at
last succeeded, it seemed, in finding a
man who could successfully fill this po-
sition. The Oyster Commissioner was
exposed to great dangers by sea in
cruising around Cape Hatteras, and also
to danger OF assault by a reckless class
OF men, armed with all sorts of weapons.
The present Commissioner had, with a
very small tax levy, succeeded in paying
off all tee back claims and putting the
industry upon a paying basis.
Mr.. Lucas said that the COMMISSIONS
took the position at $500 a year. Now
he was to get $500 d year and $500 for
expenses.
Mr.. Blount asked if the salary was
not $1,000 when Mr.. Lucas took the po-
sition.
Mr.. Lucas: ct was, and l am proud
tc say that before my term was out l
came to the Legislature and had it re-
duced to $3.50"
Mr.. Blount further asked if some OF
the inspectors under Mr.. Lucas were not
now clamoring for back pay.
Mr.. Lucas said that at that time the
industry was in its infancy, and it was
difficult to collect enough money to pay
the fees.
Mr.. Blount spoke of the great diff
ference between the receipts during the
one. He called attention to the claim of
inspector Tatum now pending, of 1920.
Mr.. Woodland, of Pamlico, said he
thought it but fair to mention that the
present revenue was chiefly derived from
the tax of TX cents per bushel on the
stock dredged.
Mr.. Lucas said that he heard the com
parison drawn between his administration
and the present one, but he did not no.
tice a thing like that. He was ready to
| stand nv his ,;pi CT roti
Mr.. Lucas then called the previous
, question.
Mr.. Blonnt's amendment was lost on
an aye and no vote by i to 70.
The bill then rasccd its second and
third readil IS.

amount deposited, shall be taxed $40 a
year.
This amendment lost by a vote of Is
to 80.
Judge Graham offered an amendment
to section 80, SO that no part of the
81 500 appropriated for the Treasurer to
secure the collection of taxes and pro-
lection of the Treasurer shall be used
to pay for clerical help or increase the
salaries of clerks. He claimed hat the
legislature and not the executive officer
should determine upon the question of
employing clerks and fixing their sala-
ries. The taxes had not been collected
as they should have been, and perhaps
this very thing was partly the cause
Of it.
Governor Doughton thought this seemed
like a reflection upon the Treasurer and
the Auditor. He did not consider that
they would employ a single clerk more
than necessary. He had spent nearly
! the whole winter in the Treasurer's of
fee, and the clerks there We're certain
ly a hard-working lot of men. The pres
ent custom had prevailed for twenty
years.
Judge Graham called for the ayes and
noes on his amendment 1t was lost by
| o vote of So to SO.
Mr.. Smith offered to amend that part
OF section 60 that relieves manufacture
| ers OF wine and brandy by making the
minimum amount sold in unbroken pack
ages one gallon instead of five gal
Ions. He said the proposed provision dis
eliminated against the small manufac-
ture. The wine or brandy is not to be
| drunk on the promises.
The amendment was lost.
Mr.. Luther offered to amend section
10 by taxing feather renoyaters $50 in
stead of SO. Lost.
Governor Doughton's amendment to tax
ell dealers only $10O instead Of 5000 was
adopted.
Tho previous question was then called,
| and Governor Doughton demanded the
| ayes and noes.
The bill then passed it's final reading
