of $4,000. This is an increase of
$4,000 over the appropriations of the
past two years, and the bill states
that it is made necessary by the in
creased attendance this session, there
being sixty-ive more pupils.
A bill establishing the North Caro-
lima State Veterinary Medical Asso-
citation, and to regulate the practice
of veterinary medicine and surgery
in North Carolina was introduced
by Mr.. Drewry. It provides for the
appointment by the Governor of a
board of examiners, consisting of
five members, to examine all appli-
cants to practice as veterinarians,
and to grant certificates to practice.
Any one practicing without a GER
tifcate shall be guilty of a INSIDE
meanor But all persons who have
practiced for five years previous to
this act shall be allowed to practice,
provided they make affidavit to that
effect, and have their names regis
tered in the office of the Clerk of
the Superior Court.
Asheville, N. c., Feb. 3.-News

Buckner, the Republican nominee
in the recent election for the State
Senate from the Thirty-sixth Dis
trict, was on his way to Raleigh to
claim the seat in the Legislature
over Griffith, the Democratic nomi-
nee, who was declared elected and
has already been seated. The Re
publicans of this district are now
claiming Buckner's election by three
votes. They say that several pre-
cincts in Mitchell had not been off
cially heard from and Griffith was
seated. This district is Republican
by about $500 majority. 1t was won
by a strategem on the part of the
Democrats, who kept their candidate
in the background until the day Of
election, presumably conceding the
field to the Republican.

the following summary OF the more
important bills presented last week
The dog-tax bill was introduced
in the House last week. 1t was done
bv Mr.. Vann, of Hartford. The tax
provided is 81 upon every dog, and
it is stipulated that all dogs shall be
listed as other property and that the
tax shall go to the general school
fund of the respective counties. Any
person failing to dist a dog for taxa
ton shall be guilty of a misdemeanor.
Senator Pollock finds in the dogs
a source of revenue to aid the public
school fund. He has introduced a
bill to tax dogs one dollar and five
dollars for males and females re-
spectively, the proceeds to go to the
school fund, the act to apply only to
LenOir county.
Perhaps the most important fea-
ture of Saturdays session in the
House was the introduction by Mr..
Blount of a joint resolution authoriz-
ing and requesting the Governor to
appoint a commissioner to investi-
gate the unlawful discrimination in
freight rates; to secure and tabulate
full information and report to the
Governor, who shall then take such
steps as he may deem necessary for
the redress of any grievances. The
commissioner is to be paid 1926 a
month for incidental expenses for as
long as the Governor may consider
mis- services necessary,
Senator Durham has introduced d
"Child Labor bill" This makes it

lishments to hire any child under

school term of the district; no minor

who cannot read and write unless ne
has a certificate of two weeks attend
ance on school, and in 1904 increases
this to four weeks. After 1905 no
child under fourteen who cannot read
end write is to be employed unless he
has a certificate of at least an at
tendance of Is per cent on the public
school, or has a certificate that non
attendance was caused by sickness.
The bill also makes it unlawful for
any child under twelve to work be-
tween the hours of Z at night and 6
IN the morning, except such as have
been regularly employed during the
working hours of the day preceding.

THAT CASH BOOK

Much has been said about the
sherifps cash book of 1901 in
which the poll taxes of that year
ore entered. 1t was common talk
that fraud was being committed
in the sheriffs Office by issuing
fraudulent poll tax receipts for
1901 to the followers of the Bsdon
faction.
That book was this week sub
mitted to the Rees people and they
have been busy this week copying
this book in order to compare the
names which are in this book and
the lists that will be furnished by
the sheriff.
We have not heard of any fraud
being exposed yet, but we believe
it to be the duty of the Rees people
to make public any fraud or ire
gularity they may find in the
sherifPs books. If there is any,
thing wrong in that book the peo-
pie are entitled to that informa-
ton.
