The regulation of Trusts has

Of this body for twenty years or
less, and always with the same
result. whether justly or not the
business interests have succeed
ed in making a majority believe
that there is no use for such
drastic action as has been at
tempted. There is no reason to
doubt that the same interests
will have the same power this
time. Mentioning the business
interests called TO mind the fact
that it has been said that the in
terest breads a meeting Of this
body. on account of the agitator,
not that it has anything to fear
from the sober action Of law
makers; for the reason that it is
necessary for the best interests
of capital to have the body make
certain laws.

Big THING COMING.
Southern Power Company to Invade The
City Of Durham.

The Southern Power Company
has issued a map of its official
intention regarding the trans
mission of power to and the driv-
ing of Durham by the current
generated from its plants on the
Catawba river.
John Sprunt Hill thinks that
this is the biggest thing to hap
pen for Durham in long time.
He has figured out that saving to
he people of Durham along will
be S210, 900 year.
The cost to the company for
putting up the transmitting APP
paratus will be about $1,000 a
mile. Thus 125 miles will cost
1925. 900 a large amount for any
Southern company to put into an
enterprise.
The territory traversed by its
wires in this State and South
Carolina will be 10000 square
miles. The central point is Char
lotte, and from there the distri-
button is to be made.

Licenses issued Last Year.

The number Of marriage Ii
censes issued in Durham county
from December LIST, 1907,
to December LIST, 1903, amounted
to 1893. This was a decrease Of
al from the year previous, the
figures from Decembei LIST, 1906,
to December LIST, 1907, being 434.
From the above figures, it ap-
pears that the girls did not take
advantage Of Leap Year TO a very
great extent, or it may have
been that the panic had some
thing to do with it.
