German Spring Festival
In old Germany the festival of

but the eloquence and tact of the legislator was successful and his bill became a law
 Overman figured in another hot ly contested legislative battle which centered around the leasing of the North Carolina Railroad in which the state held a majority of stock. The question of leasing the road divided the party. Overman clung tonacicuslv to the policy of leas- ing, despite severe criticism of nlany newspapermen. He finally won his battle and was elected pres ident of the road.
 Overman was a descendent Of Major James Smith, who fought with the American forces in the Revolution In 1878 he married Mary P. Merrimon, daughter of United States Senator A. s. Mer- rimon. He was for many years g member Of the boards of Trinity College, and of the University O. North Carolina, both of which in- stitutions honored him with ILL. D. degrees.

year, after which he resigned to begin pricticing law in Salisbury.
 In Legislature
 Overman was a member of the North Carolina legislature in 1883, 1885, 1887, 1893 and 1899, during which time he served as Speaker of the House. Tn 1895 he was the choice of the Democratic caucus for the United States Senate but was defeated. He was President of the Democratic State Convention in 1900 and in 1911, presidential cleo tor for the state at large in 1900, and was elected to the United States Senate in 1903, to be re- elected in 1909. He began his third term in 1914, when he was the first United States Senator to be elected by direct vote of the peo-- pie of his state. He was reelected in 1920 and in 1926.
 One of Overman's first acts on becoming a Senator was to obtain an appropriation for appointment of commercial agents to be sent abroad for the exploitation and extension of American commerce, especially cotton. From time to time he obtained additional appro- priations for this work.
 In the House of Representatives Oyerman's work attracted wide at tention. He seldom made long ad- dresses but expressed his convic- tions eloquentlys forcihly and a. times vehemently.
 Interest in Education
 His interest in education endear ed him to the State. In 1885 he brought in a bill for an annual ap- propriation for the State Univer- sity. The bill met keen opposition
