Bailey, Bulwinkle
for Lower Expenses
Bailey for States to Take Relief
Load; Bulwinkle Stands for
Balanced Budget

North Cardinals senior senator,
Josiah w. Bailey, unsuccessful earli-
er in this session of Congress in an
effort to place a greater response
bility for relief upon local govern
ments, gave indication this week he
would try again when the Senate
considers the administrations ST.
5OO,O00,000 relief request for the
1898 fiscal year.
The Senate in January voted down
Bailey's amendment to the $780,
100000 deficiency relief appropria-
ton for the last half of the 1867
fiscal year, which would have re-
quired States, cities, and counties to
certify they were unable to provide
relief before obtaining Federal aid.
Since that time, the cry for econ
omy and budget balancing has be-
come more pronounced in Congress
with a number of senators, includ-
ing the North Carolinians, in favor
of pairing down the proposed 81, $780,
100000 relief appropriation to
$4,000 100000.
End of Santa
Bailey has reiterated his belief
that mo city, county, or State ought
to draw a dollar from the Federal
treasury unless it is actually unable
to provide funds for unemployment
relief"
Representative A. L. Bulwinkle of
Gastonia is swinging the budget
balancing club in the House. Inter-
preting his action as an economy
move, he voted against bill the
House passed this week providing
for government distribution of trees
for reforestation.

The redlstrictlng committee has recommended to the mayor that S2 voting districts be set up instead of the present 20. If the Democrats continue their present plan of hav- Ing one town committeeman from each voting district, this will mean that the town committee will be en- larged so as to have 32 members. However, the town committee may work out some other plan which would not make 1t necessary to have an unwieldy number of delegates.
 The redistricting plan will also make necessary some changes In the set-up of the Republican town com- mittee, but the COP. has as yet made no provision for making any such changes.
 The vote of the town convention last night delegated to the town committee the authority to make whatever changes in the party rules as are felt needed after redis- tricting plan has been adopted. The plan approved by the non-partisan citizens committee appointed by the mayor, calling for g districts, will be submitted to the aldermen after study by the mayor. It will not be effective until the state and con- gerssional elections In November, 1888. No changes In the present dis- trict set-up will be made before the city election here next month.
