In the Sir Walter Hotel.

Raleigh, Dec. 27.-The Federal CEN
sus to be taken in 1910 is quite likely
to give great impetus to one sort of
legislation in the 1899 General As
sembly, while putting an absolute

Annexation of suburban areas will
prove one of the liveliest issues, in all
likelihood; while on the other hand
there is hardly a chance of even a
feeble peep" out of the hoary reap
portionment question.
The United States Bureau of Cen
sus has warned that all cities and
towns should be prepared to notify
the bureau of annexations not late~
than July 1, 1899, which means that
those desiring to make annexations
will have to get the approval Of the
assembly which meets next month.
At the present time the only method
for extending city. limits in North
Carolina is by a special act of the
legislature. The question is a. vexing
and heated o..- in several cities, a.
mong which can be listed Raleigh and
Wilmington, and there are probably
many others.
Naturally there will be more local
than general fighting in. the assembly
over these annexation questions, but
there will be some turnover with los

lative help to win anyhow
