THE ANDERSON TRIAL.
SOME OF THE TESTIMONY AND
THE PROBABLE VERDICT.

The Town of Lenoir and the Industrial
Impetus Brought About by tho Rail
Road. Some Social Dots.
Special Correspondence Of the Sentinel.
LENoIR, N. c., Jan. -20.-The trial
of w. A. Anderson is still in progress
and growing in interest. 1t began last
Friday and will probably consume
two days longer before it goes to the
jury The prosecution is ably con-
Quoted by Joseph Adams, Solicitor, j.
NJ. Gudger, r. q. Linny and Edmund
Jones. The defence is equally as ably
managed by host of lawyers, under
the leadership of that grand old Ro-
man, Hon. r. T. Armfeld. The wit
nesses for the State testify that Ander-
son ordered Ed. Horton the deceased,
to leave the mine in FIVE minutes or
he would kill him. Anderson said,
Cd you I will kill you anyhow" !"
Horton says, 81 will go, [ will, will,
1 WILL" and that as Horton was leav-
ing and uttering these words, Ander-
son fired. -Four shots were found up
ON Horton. This fact testified to by
two witnesses of good character, and
renamed unlmpeacneQ.
Anderson says that Horton first
threw rock at him, that they clinch-
ed, fell, with Horton on top, he An
dersom got out his pistol, turned Hor-
ton and let him up, upon a promise
that Horton would leave. After Hor-
ton got up he gathered two rocks
threw one at him, and was in the act
oil throwing the other, when he fired
the first shot, firing in succession four
times. That Horton was in q few feet
of him when the fourth shot was fired
holding the rock drawn in the right
hand all the while. One of the balll
took effect in the right arm near the
hand. If the States witnesses are tc
be believed, it is a most wanton anc
brutal murder. If the States witnesses
swore lies and Anderson the truth
then tits case of manslaughter. Th'
verdict may not be murder, but it viii

THERoAD QUESTION

T.
be Worked.
Special Correspondence of the Sentinel
DANBURY, N. c., January 81
One of the greatest drawbacks to
Stokes is the condition of the public
road. If had the ability to write an
article that was worthy. of space in so
excellent paper as the SENTINEL, 1
would like to say something on this
subject. Let us her from you any
way.-ED SENTINEL By all means
we should have a better system of
keeping up the public roads. 1t
seems to me a plan something like
the following would be fair and just
Let every man work the road by
treason Of his manhood" and contrib
ute days work for every S. or $40
tax that he pays. There would be
justice and social equality in such a
system. Under the present system
there is neither. Many wealthy men
with a large mercantile and manufac-
turing business, whose wagons are al
ways on the road, never contribute
one farthing toward keeping up the
public roads, while a majority of those
that work them never owned wagon
and team, and many only travel a hog
path. In my estimation there is moth
ing that enters into politics in North
Carolina that demands reform more
than the present system of keeping up
our public roads. JEE WHILIKINs.
