Salary of the Solicitors Reflected in State Reform
The North Carolina legislature passed a bill establishing solicitor salaries at 4750 dollars per year plus a 750 dollar annual expense allowance. The reform aims to cut costs for taxpayers and fund public schools, replacing the previous average fees around 13700 dollars. Guilford County hosted the initial push, led by John W. King, who later became a General Assembly member and pushed the measure despite opposition from solicitor ally Haymore of Surry. The piece also notes Wachovia Bank and Merchants National bank merger moves shaping local finance and leadership changes under E. C. Duncan and W. B. Brake Jr, with plans to expand fiduciary business.
