The activities in the lobby aroused
the ire OF Speaker Holstein and after
the session had convened the house
leader spoke on point OF personal
privilege.
There is a perniciouS system Of
lobbying going en- around here, he de-
clared, which includes two govern

ing out on the front steps from

Incidently Vieira is attempting to
shift the responsibility for House Bill
800 upon Representative Isenberg. He
says the member from Waialae, who
owns COWS, drew up the bill and gave
it to him to present. Vieira did not
deny, however, that he asked the ma
yor to discharge Foreman Mute of the
county bridge crew, as the mayor
was quoted as saying in the Star
Bulletin yesterday. Vieira says the
mayor apologized to him today.

DISTINCT BRANCH,
IDEA IN new BILL

Senator Coke'S naval militia bill,
S. p. g.. vas entirely changed by the

branch. distinct from the guard, with
its own chief officer. equipment and
rules;
The bill does not carry an apprOpri-
alton for the establishment and
maintenance Of the naval militia, but
Coke announced an Intention to try
to insert a $4,000 item in the gen
eral appropriation bill for the new
feature.

tee of the senate and passed second
reading in the upper house.
Against the objection of Writ the
senate passed H. B. 1855 on second
reading. This bill amends the liquor
license law, definitely prescribing that
no saloon or other liquor establish.
ment shall be given a license to OPP
crate within $50 feet OF the nearest
boundary of land on which a school
or religious organization exists. The
present statute is indefinite on the
point. 1t says the saloon or other IL
quor establishment shall be $50 feet
distant from the school or church, but
leaves a doubt whether it means the
school building or church building or
the property on which it is situated.
In answer to Writes query as to
why the alteration in the statute is
desired. Senator Desha cited the case
of Punahou, where, if the prescribed
area we're measured from the school
building a license could be given to
install a saloon at the very entrance
Fof the school grounds.

CAN'T AGREE0
SUNDAY: MOVIES

The Sunday moving picture bill, H.
B. 1919, will be discussed by the SEN
ate next Monday afternoon in commit
tee of the whole, on second reading.
The military committee to which it
was assigned when it crossed the leg
islative corridor to the upper house
after passing in the lower house and
which held a stirring public meeting
on the subject ten days ago, failed to
make 2 decisive recommendation.
There are three members of the mill
man; Baker and Robinson. And the
committee submitted three reports.
The first one read was that of Baker.
He approved the measure and recon-
mended its passage. Put there was no
minority or majority report, and that
being contrary to parliamentary rules
the bill was sent back to the commit.
tee with instructions to submit a def
mite recommendation.
The individual reports of Chairman
Coke and Baker were not read, and
doubtless the contents OF those two
documents will never be known pub
licly. 1t is certain, however, that nei
Their favored the measure unqualified
ly as it stands.
Ten minutes later Chairman Coke
submitted committee report stating
that he and his conferees were unable
to agree, and that they therefore re
, turned the measure for the senate's
consideration. On ,Rice's motion the
bill was placed on the order of the
day for consideration in committee Of
the whole Monday.

J. G.. Morrow has in his possession a
booklet issued by the Hendersonyille
board of trade abouty thirty wears

A glance through this 34-page book
let Is much nor interesting by rea.
son of its history than a peep at the
attractive new city booklet just of
the Charlotte press. The advertise

devoted to business anG professional
announcements, show that very few
me in BUSINESS at tina. time are ac-
lively engaged in their trades ana
professions now.
Contributors to the descriptive Dor
ton of the booklet were: Hon. A. Can
non, Col. S. V. Pickens, Rev. G. S.
Jones and Thomas J. Hickman, who
was mayor. Mr.. Hickman is now an
Ashevillle attorney. The councilmen
were: M. T. Justus, M. C. Toms, W. A.

NO CIRCUsEs ALLOWED SOON.

Washington, D. c., April 1.-THE
small boy who has been saving up his
pennies and building up his hopes of
going to the circus and menager1e
when it comes to town this spring is
due to be severely disappointed, as no
circus will come his way at least until
next fall.
The agricultural department has
putthe circus season on the blink be-
cause of the fear that in their travels
they may spread the dreaded foot and
mouth disease. 1t seems that ele-
they may spread the dreaded foot mt
mouth disease just at readily as do
horses and COWS, and so the edict
against moving animals from one state
to another applies to them in the same
manner. y.
All the big ~circuses have been
warned by the government not to
move out of the state they are in, If
they happen to be east of the Misissip-
ri river, and in a good many states the
state authorities will not allow them
to leave the particular town in which
the order overtakes them.

The death in New York of a man

The secret of his happiness and his
