CAPELOOKOUT CONTRACTED
Harbor of Refuge Largest Govern
ment Project Ever Undertaken in
State.

Wilmington.-Maj.H H. w.. Sickle,
United States Engineer in charge of
the Wilmington district, has announc-
ed that to D. L. Taylor & Co., of Me-
dina, N. Y, have been awarded the
contract for building the first section
of the biggest government project
ever attempted in North Carolina, the
same being the breakwater which is
to form the harbor of refuge at Cape
Lookout. There is $1,260,O00 now
available for this work, and it is mu-
tually agreed between Taylor & Co.
and the government that the firm will
be awarded the contract for the entire
project, as the appropriations are
made by the government, the whole
amounting to $4,000.
The contractor must begin the work
within six months. It is probable that
he will begin within three months.
The agreement makes it mandatory
that at least $1,000 tons of rock be
placed each month. Using this as a
basis it is estimated that the work
will be fnished-that part of it in
cluded in the present contract-within
two years from the time the work is
begun. The contractor, it is under
stood, expects to place the rock at the
rate of $4,000 tons monthly, which
would bring the time of completion to
slightly more than one year from the
beginning of the work
The rock will be obtained from a
quarry near Havre de Grace, Md, and
water transportation will be had
direct from the quarry to the scene Of
operations. The inland waterway will
be used to great advantage. Thirty
barges, towed by six tugs, will be used
by the contractor in transporting the
material.

CHANGES ITS RATES.

Southern Public Utilities Company
Adopts New Basis of Charges.
A change in rates charged for elec-
trio current is announced by the South
ern Public Utilities Company, effective
April LIST. A number of cities and
towns in both North and South Caro-
lima will be affected by the new rates.
All users of electric current will be
charged upon the same basis under
the new schedule and in some cases
it is probable the rate of some GUS
toners will be materially increased to
conform with the standard tariff.
Many complaints about irregulari-
ties in the rates charged have been
made recently by customers of the
Southern Public Utilities Company,
which is the reason given by officials
of that corporation for the change in
it's charges. The new price for cleo
trio current will result in a difference
of $4,000 in the revenue of the COM
pany according to President q. V.
Taylor.

Two Big Features In House.

The House passed by a large ma
jority the Seawen insurance bill to
give the State Commissioner of Insur-
ance the power to raise or lower the
fire insurance rates after the manner
OF the law in Kansas, as recommended
by the legislative investigation COM
mission but defeated by a vote of 20
to 40 the bill of the State Department
of Education and State Teachers AS
sembly to provide uniform examina-
ton and certification of public school
teachers, the vote being ON . motion
to table.
These were the two big features Of
the House proceedings. The passage
of the Seawen bill was without de-
bate having come over as unfinished
business from the long discussion Of
the measure. The debate of the Sen
ate bill for examination and certif1ca-
ton of teachers was long and spirited,
with Chairman Mintz of the Commit
tee on Education leading the fight for
the bill and his Wayne County col
league. Representative Matt Allen, as
one of the chief opponents, and Rep
resentative Smith of Cleveland, for 20
years teacher, as another of the most
vigorous opponents.

Of shipments Of intoxicating liquors
from points without the state to
points within the state and delivery
within the state. the bill for which
the State Anti-Saloon League has
been working. The final vote passing
the bill was preceded by vote against
referendum amendment that was
offered by Williams of Cabarrus for
the act not to be operative until rati-
fed by the people of the state at the
polls. This vote was 20 80.
Before the special orderlhour ar
rived for the bill to be taken up, Rep
resentative Cameron moved that the
special order be displaced and set
for next Wednesday to give the SEN
ate time to develop it's amendments
and substitute the bills, the indica-
ton being, Mr.. Cameron said, that
the senate would considerably change
the mesaure before it could get
through that body. Displacement and
postponement were ,strenuously op-
posed by Mr. Grier, who said he en-
tertained the highest regard for the
senate but that the house should pro-
coed to vote it's conviction on this
issue without reference to the SEN
ate. The house refused to displace
and continue the special order.
Argument on the bill began at
1890, Mr.. Grier opening for the bill
and arguing that the measure is con-
stitutional, that it will not in any way
operate to the detriment of the Dem
ocratic party in the passing of it and
that it should not be referred to the
people for ratification, the people hav-
ing, he said, already spoken.
Representatives Witherspoon, VIII
Hams Of Yadkin, Alfred, DeytOn and
others advocated the bill. Williams
of Cabarrus, argued for his referen-
dunn amendment, as did Cameron of
Durham. Representative Page spoke
for the bill
Representative Hutchinson made the
most vigorous speech against the bill.
He said that his people knew where
he stood He had voted against the
prohibition bill in 1908, but he would
not do so were this measure the one
pending now.
He charged that the petitions that
have flooded the legislature were
worked up through manufactured
sentiment stirred up by Supt. r. l..
Davis of the Anti-Saloon League,
whom he charged with making a
spectacle of himself from day to day
in the house. He believed the bill,
if passed, would react and destroy
much of the good that has come from
the original prohibition measure. In
deed, he regarded this is the most
drastic measure ever attempted to be
put upon a civilized people.
