The Stewart bill to prohibit the
running of bucket shops coming up,
Mr. Woodland. of Wilson, moved that
the consideration of the bin be post
poncd and made a special order. He
said he had prepared a BILL which he
thought would beyond all doubt reach
the evils aimed at without the least
possibility of injuring any legitimate
dealers. Judge Winborme opposed
postponement, saying that the matter
had been thoroughly discussed and
carefully investigated before the .Ju
dietary COMMITTEES: that sub-commit-
tee had been working on it for some
time and two public hearings had been
gwen all parties Interested
Mr.. Stewart explained that the bill
was modelled after the Missouri law,
and il had worked well, not interfering
in the least with legitimate dealers,
but breaking up, root and branca. the
gambling bucket shops. He said many
tot Of q
changes had been before the commit
tee. all denouncing the bucket shops,
but the more they talked the more he
was conv need that they objected TO
this bill because it did away with
bucket shops He had Il letter from
Governor Folk OF Missouri, which
stated that the law had worked well
there.
Mr.. Woodland said that in his opin-
ion the Stewart bill would not reach
a single bucket shop in the State and
the desire of the people of the State
was to break up bucket shops. The
definition in the Stewart bin would not
reach single bucket shop in the
State.
Mr. Murphy, Of Buncombe. said he
did not think the Stewart bill would
accomplish the purpose 1t was intend
eel to do or remedy the existing evil,
a
postponement SO that the bin of Mr..
Waadard could he considered. Mr..
Stewart agreed to a postponement and
the matter was made a special order
for next Thursday at IL o'clock.
