FIFTY*SECOND DAY.
SENATE.

The senate went into executive ses—
sion to confirm the appointment of the
trustees of the Normal and Industrial
schos]l, A.J. Moye of Pitt, J. A.
Blair of Randolph, and A+ S. Peace of
Granville. They were confirmed.

The bill was taken up to amend the
election law. This is a substitute to the
original bill introduced by Grant. Tne
substitute is also introduced by the
same senator. ‘The bill provides that
the clerk of the court, register of deeds
and chairman ot the county commis—
sioners shall appoint all the registrars
and judges of eleetion, without recom.
mendation of any one, It ignores the
chairmen of the state ard county exec-
utive committees. It also provides for
three ballot boxes, one for township
officers, one for county officers aud one
for state officers. The length of time
to register is extended to the fifth Sat-
urday until 12 o’clock when a voter 1s

was discussed. A substitute was of-
fered leaving the whole matter to the
governor’s council. The debate was at
times very warm. The substitute was
adopted—54 to 45.

By this time it was 1 o’clock and be-
tore the vote on the Goldsboro bill was
reached the special order came up,
this bia, the North Carolina lease
matter.

Cook, chauman of the special com.
mittee, reported the senate substi‘ute |:
bill without amendment and the speaker
handed to the clerk the following
opinion of the supreme court on the
matter, in respouse to the house resolu-
tion adopted yesterday afterncon. |

this very court might be called ou tu

the court had never before passed upon
such a matter as this. He ofiered an

The bill to encourage local taxation
for public schools next came up. This
is che bill which appropriates $50,000
for three years, and allows school dis-
tricts to vcte for increase of taxes tc the
amount of $250, the state treasurer to
duplicate the amount raised. —

Atwater offered an
appropriate $100,000 direct from the
treasury and distribute it pro rata among
the school cistricts.

The amendment of Atwater was lost
and the substitute passed its third read-

A lazy man is seldom so very
lazy as not to be abie to invent
some excuse for his inactivity.
Harper's Round Table teils a story
in point.

Patrick was the captain of a
gp hooner that piied between New
York and Haverstraw on the
fludscn. One day his schooner
was loaded with brick ready to
ptart for New York, but Patrick

‘gave uo sign of any intention to

get under way. Instead of that,
he sat on the deck smoking a
pipe.

The owner of the brickyard, who
ws also the owner of the schoon-

_ er, had reasons for wishing the
bricks landed in New York at the
Garliest possible moment, came
hurrying on board and demanded

was to induce them to wait untila
