Solomonvilie Bulletin. The initiatory steps have been taken tC hold mass meeting of the people O | Graham county in Solomonvilie on Mon day the 18th day of October, which vii be the first day of the term of our Dis trlct court, and most propitious occa sion for such an event, as every town ship and neighborhood in the county will have representative men here, who ought to be interested in the selection of the best material for the offices of Graham county. The Democratic organization in this county will hold their convention on the Sth, but up to the present time there seems to be but few who seek a nomina- tion on that ticket. From these two tick cts the people will have chosen the men to administer our county government for the next two years. The Bulletin be- Eeves in selecting the best men for coun- ty officers regardless of politics. E The man Lee, who was arrested here last week on a charge of robbery and taken back the Clifton, 1t seems was guilty of nothing more than the man who held two deuces and an ax handle" The par tculars of the offence as given by gen tlemdn who was present at the attempted examination are: Lee and another man engaged in a game of draw" Lee lost all his money, reached across the table, took all the money in sight. with the re- mark that if his opponent could lick" him he could get the money back. His opponent intimated that he would "see him later" and started off, supposedly af- ter gun. Lee became alarmed and left camp with the stakes. He was taken back before Justice Sias, but the examin- oti ho1 hCon -t counts.
