Raleigh, March Newspaper
men, despite the opinion of some
folks to the contrary, are human be-
ings, subject to prejudice and error,
but not Intentionally unjust or I'M
kind. When several newspaper men
associate rather closely with a group
of people for weeks, they can be
trusted to know pretty well what
sort of folks they have been with. 1t
is, therefore, interesting to note the
result of a poll of newspaper men
covering the 1889 legislature as to
the five leading members in each
house.
Out of fifteen votes, Senator Pat
Taylor, Representatives Gregg Cher
ry and Victor Bryant each got IA. In
all, seventeen senators and fourteen
representatives got some mention
The five leaders selected from the
Senate are:
Pat Taylor, smooth, energetic
hardworking;;" William 3. Rodman
Jr., reflective, outstanding;;" DR.. I
w. NJ. Long, for progressive health
legislation; John W. Umstead, "mas-
ter of indirection, and an adroit COM
mittee worker" Joseph H. Speark
courteous, courageous, and consid-
crate"
Representatives included in the
top five are: Major Gregg Cherry, {
''forceful personality" Victor S
Bryant, ''finest intellect" Libby
Ward, good craftsmanship and {
pleasing personality in presiding
over the house," Zeb V. burlington

ty, consistently conscientious, sin

about shady" practices, political or
otherwise, DR.. Long is one of the
most dependable representatives.

Capital Gossip
BY HENRY AVERILL AND
LYNN NISBET
In the, Sir Walter Hotel.
Daily Dispatch Bureau,

Raleigh, March 28.-There has
been a lot Of backing up and start
ing over during this legislature. Bills
have been passed by one house and
then had to be recalled from the
other and passed again because Of
some error. There have been re-
consideration of votes when sponsors
of measures thought sentiment had
changed sufficiently, to change the
result. But the prize back-up of all
came late Fridaypnight, when a mo-
ton to reconsider the vote by which
motion to adjourn had passed was
put and declared adopted. The story
IS something like this:
The House was adjourning it's
Friday session SO as to go into the
early Saturday morning session and
make two days in one night" One
or two members had local bills which
they wanted introduced under Fri
| days date to get benefit of roll call.
Speaker Ward is nothing if not &C
commodating his friends-so he
| obliged by resorting to the very ex-
! traordinary procedure of putting a
! motion before body that was not
{ in session and declaring it adopted
by a vote which could not be cast!
But it worked. The House backed up
/: into session, got the bills entered on
Fridays journal, and then actually
did adjourn, to reconvene about five
minutes later for the next days SEES
