asked Via position the railroads oc-
cupied standing in the false light. They
have no = right to fight the bill after

clined to make corporations suffer IN

10y those who opposed the bill were if

ton to that section of the constitution
when provided that fines should SO to
the county fund for public schools and
this bill was in violation of the cOnsti
tuition. Mr.. Gayle replied that the bill
provided that the Scotland Neck Grad
ed schools should nave the fines arising
in the criminal cases in that school
district. He said a law to this effect
was in operation at Weldon in the same
county, and a bill applying to this
same principle had been passed at this
session for a district in Wautauga
county. Chairman Murphy of the edu-
cation committee stated that in his
opinion it was not in the power of the
legislature to Divert these town fines
from the general fund of the schools
of the county. He took this position
befre the committee and still though,
the bill was unconstitutional. Mr.. But
Ter of the committee said that his I'M
derstanding was that the bill should
be reported unfavorably. but after
wards it was determined to report it
and let the matter be settled by the
Superior court. He made a motion that
the bill be sent to the judiciary and
the motion prevailed.

The bill abolishing distllieries at Ad-
n in Davie county came up. Mr..
McNinch presented a minority report
from the unfavorable report of the ma
jority OF the committee and asked that
the bill be made a special order for
Tuesday. He said it would be impossi-
BILE for him to be here at any other
Cay, which was not already made a
special order for something else. Mr..
Grant, of Davie, objected to postpone
ment n moved that the bill be laid
on the table. This motion vas defeated
by a vote Of SO to SO. Murphy, Of Row
an, objected to having the special or
der set as far ahead as February 21st.
suggesting February 18th. He finally

PAM to, delay shipment beyond a rea-
sonable time and for every violation
the company should forfeit S25 for
the day and So for every subsequent
day, i'm carload lots and IN less than
carload lots, $3.50 for the first day
and $3.50 for each succeeding day.
Mr.. Mason, of CASTOR, offered an
amendment which inserted leach sue
ceedingH day in the bill. The follow
ing, providing that should forfeits be
made no longer than thirty days. Mr..
Mason said railroad companies do not
ship freight arbitrarily and it is their
desire to make shipments with as
much prOmptness as possible, but
companies I've to employ men and
it is impossible to have absolutely no
errorS and it is a hardship to impose
a penalty without limit and those
penalties should not be recorded for
a period Of more tfaan 80 days. It is
nothing but reasonable that this pen
atty should be limited and no one
would vote to impose penalty like
this one upon any one or anything
except sa-railroad.
MIR. Scales said he hoped the amend
mt would not pass. He was not
n hater of railroads.. He believed they
should not be unfairly treated, but they
should be held to a certain extent of
liability. The bill, he said was reason
able and had already been agreed upon
by the representatives OF h railroads.
He had been approached by the repre-
sentatiyes of the railroads and they
offered amendments and he aid they
came to an agreemnt by making certain
changes and they said they would not
fight the bill if the change were made.
To put a smaller penalty than is pro-
VEded would be playing, and the sum
would not be enaugh to pay the ,attor-
neys. He urged that Il the purposes
of the bill were to be accomplished
the amendment should not pass. The
railroad companies have two days to
send their freight, four days to trans
port it a hundred miles, and if a two
days delay is made in addition to the
four days required 80 transport, that
should not be considered unreasonable
and the railroad companies have 8 days
to transport freight 9 nundre miles.
The bill has been agreed upon by The
various representatives of the railroads
and in good faith, and SHOULD be passed
without the amendment, and if he
amendment is attached / should prefer
the bill to be tabled. MIR. Mason, of
CASTOR, said it was not a question or
whether the railroads agreed to it or
not but whether the bill was right, and
he declared it was not right, and gave
h state a pretense or excuse to regu-
late1and control railways. He said
