THE WAREHOUSE BILL UN;
_ WISR,
i esercaenmeieeniall
A bill has been. introducad in
tue Senate by Mr. Belaniy, of
Nash county, to reduce the salary
of State aud county officers and
tobaseo warehouse charges to a
fraction over half of wiiat they
are now. To our mind the inten-
tion ot the gentleman who intro-
duced this bill was, pure and all
Tight, but in the hght of common
sense and sober reason let us look
at what the result of such an
enactment upon our statute bouks
would be to the farming element
of North Carolina. The legisla-
ture being composed mai of
farmers and not made up of to-
bacco warehousemen, it is but
. matural that such a bill should
meet with much -favor at their
hands, because naturally they
calculate that the save in charges
goes into the farmerTs products
aud hence is that much made for
him. But let us see. If the
charges that warehouses usually
eollect are reduced half, -instead
of having a friend to see that the
farmersT tobacco selis for
worth the warehouseman is utter-
ly disempowered and unable to
take any risk whateyer in pur-
the farmersT tobacco.

ing the farmer with a bill pur-
porting to be their friend and for
their intercst after it is fastened
upon our statute books as a. fixed
law of the land, those yery. ones
who are now fostering and urging
the passage of the bi!l will find
that they have been harboring au
einpty delusion which in the
space of two years will cost the
to»acco farmers of this State
more money than the difference
batween the presentand proposed
charges will amount to in ten
years. Such an assertion may
sound wild but an actual calcula-
tion will prove it to be so. Only
@ cent « pound on several million
podads in~two years will amount
to a great deal more than some of
oar legislators would imagine.
There should bea mutual feel-
iag existiag between the ware-
nousemen and planters but if. the
present legislature continues on
ia its wild and visionary schemes
no telling what the feeling will
be twelve months hence. :
