democrats declare, effectively does
away with the former practice OF
sitting legislation in committees.
Republicans Charge Gag.
A special order passed by the demo
Gratis and limiting debate on the rules
to four hours immediately brought
out a cry OF gag from the republi-
cans. The speeches which followed
were all more or less of political
nature and there was no serious fight
On the rules themselves. The republi-
cans claimed they we're debarred
from making such a fight because of
the further provision OF the special
order that only ore substitute set OF
rules could be offered by the minority.
Not even a roll call was demanded
by the republicans on the adoption
cs the rule.
The political battle which waged for
four hours was but foretaste OF
others to come during the session and
which are expected to make the pres
ent Congress notable. Representative
Mann, the republican leader, was
ably seconded by former Speaker
Cannon, AID Representatives Dalzell
and Otmsted with one or two republi-
can insurgents thrown in for good
measure. The latter assisted their
brothers Of the minority by protesting
against the action of the democrats

Mr.. Cannon's speech was easily the
feature. He was greeted with ap-
piause from both parties when he
arose to make his maiden address OF
the session.

declared. that substantially the rules
proposed by this Legislation are an
endorsement of nearly all that Is good
in the rules that have evoluted since
the adoption of the constitution, and
therefore, / am going to crlticise
the rules merely because the majority
OF the House proposes to adopt them.

Many Board vancancies.


The greatest number of vacancies
to be filled viii be en- the State Board
of Health. On May 81 the terms OF FIVE
members expire. They are John L..
Dickey, of Wheeling; DR.. A. r. War
dea, OF. Grafton; DR.. J. e. Robins. of
Charleston; DR.. H. A. Barbee, CT PIT.
Pleasant, and DIR. Fl. w. Rymer. OF
Harrisville. The first four OF these
were appointed June 1, 1907 and DR..
Rymer on June 1, 1909, the latter be-
ing the only one appointment by the
present governor. sW
DIR. V. t. Chur hman, OF Charleston
and Dr. John r. Koch, OF Hinton, who
were appointed as members OF the
State Beard OF Examiners in Optic
metry when the law went into effect
on July /, 1909, may be appointed to
succeed themselves on june 80. Both
OF these are appointees OF the present
governor.
The term Of DR.. l.. " Guthrie, of
Huntington, as member of the State
Board for the Examination and Regis
tration OF Nurses, who was appointed
July 1, 1908, will expire June 80, 1911,
and it Is practically certain he will be
appointed to succeed himself IL he
will accept the place. He was not an
appointee OF Governor Glasscock.
On the Beard OF Dental Examiners,
DIT. John w. Storer, of Wheeling, and
DR.. Frederick r. Stathers, OF Clarks-
burg, will cease to be members unless
they are reappointed on June 80. 1911.
Both of these men were appointed by
Governor Dawson, the present GOV
errors predecessor i'm office.
Alfred Walker, of Sutton, will retire
urless reappointed, as member OF
the Board OF Pharmacy. He was also
appointed by Governor Dawson in
1907.
The two whose terms will expire
on May 81 as members OF the State
Board of Bmbalmers are w. II. Fred
lock, of Piedmont, and c. II. Watkins,
OF Wheeling. Neither Of these were
appointees Of Governor Glasscock.
Humane Society.
The three members of the West
Virginia Humane Society whose terms
have already expired-that Is, on
March 31--are Frank c. Baker, OF Par
sens; DIR. r. D. Roller, of Charleston,
ard Dr. C. +. Graham, now of Charles
ton, but who, when appointed, was a
resident OF Wheeling. All OF these
men are appointees OF Governor Glass
cock but since enc Of them has
moved to Charleston, making two
members from this city, there is some
doubt as to whether all three viii be
leappointed.
AS will be noticed, ten OF the eigh-
teen, eliminating the judges, were ap-
pointed by a former governor, aad
since IT has not been a policy and
is not expected that one governor
after the other should continue as
members OF a board such persons as
his predecessor had appointed. there
is every probability there will be
many changes, beginning with the
first OF June and the first OF July.

any other two years OF her exis
tance.

II we want to see North Carolina g
prohibition law respected as it should
be, even by it's enemies, then let it's
friends get in after the blind tigers
and put them out of business. Hour
officers are careless about enforcing
the law, then get in after the officers
and make them do their duty or put
them out OF Office. But If, on the
other hand, they are disposed to do
their duty, give them all the support
and backing they need. 1.-THE friends
and advocates Of a law can not be
depended upon to help enforce it, to
whom are the officers to look for
support when the test comes? Don't
crlticise them when they have tried
to enforce the law but have fallen
short OF what you may have expect
ed or demanded OF them, but give
them only the more loyal and ear,
nest support and thereby encourage
them to a more diligent and faithful
performance of duty. Here In North
carolina We are too much given tc
depending altogether upon the Off
Gers to enforce the law while we stand
on and criticise instead OF backing
Them This is one reason why ther,
are so many unpunished violaters o
TIE prohibition law in our State.

A Kansas physician is blowing
about new discovery" that he has
recently made for killing house flies
He fills an ordinary drinking glass
nearly full of soap-suds. A slice OF
bread, with a small hole cut In the
center and a spread OF molasses on
the under side, Is then placed on top
OF the glass so as to cover it COM
pletely. The flies, alighting on the
bread, crawl through the hole to get
to The molasses, where they are soon
overcome by the fumes from the
soapy water, and fall into it. In q
few hours the glass is full Of dead
flies. 1t is said that the Kansas physi-
clan is very enthusiastic over his
new discovery" and thinks it will
bring him fame. "New discovery
indeed. AS far back as we can re-
member, the older women in some
sections OF North Carolina have been
using this very means of destroying
the flies that infested their homes.

hundred years, although we do not

shows at Henderson afternoon and
evening OF September 10th, will not
be complete without a tour of the
colossal canvas equerry, even though
you are not lover and admirer of
blooded stock, it is claimed you will
find an hour Of genuine pleasure and
much to interest you inspecting the
droves of horses and ponies. For
the last year agents have been in the
different parts of the world making
purchases for this department, with
a result that today the mighty Haag
shows possess one of the largest,
most varied and costly collections
of representative members OF the
equine family which wealth can pro
cure, and it is Doubtful if anywhere
near the like has ever been exhibited
before. Certainly never by any
travelling shows.
Ladies and children are particular
ly invited to visit this horse fair,
which all may safely do without es-

tendants are always present to look
