THE TELEPHONE POLE FIGHT.

The fight in regard to the removal of
the telephone poles from the sidewalk
around the Governors mansion has new
er been finally settled, and probably never
will be until it is taken to the Supreme
court 1t began with Mayor Russ adj
ministration as Mayor and has been in
the courts ever since. 1t came up in
Wake Superior court last week on a
motion by counsel for the State TO put
the defendant in contempt for not obey
ing the order of the court in regard to
the removal Of the poles complained Of.
After hearing the motion Judge Boykin
allowed the telephone people ten days
in which to take down the poles and or
dered them to appear before him at the
expiration of that time and show cause
why they should not suffer the penalty
for contempt. This penalty is $3.50 or 30
days Imprisonment or both, in the discre-
ton of the court.
In accordance with this order Manager
Glass. Of the telephone company, and
Mr. Perrin Busbee, as attorney for the
State, went down to Smithfield yesterday,
where Judge Boykin is holding court.
Mr.. Busbee said he would renew his mo-
ton to have the company punished for
contempt. Mr.. Glass will plead in re-
ply to this that the order of the court
was complied with as soon as the papers
were legally served.
The case was set for yesterday. 1t has
not been learned what the decision of
the court was.

Vote For The Decoy.


Vote For The Decoy.
We have already published the official
vote for President of North Carolina,
showing that Bryan's majority over Me
Kinley was 1926. In elections, as in
circuses, there are always side shows, and
some people go to them and go homo
without ever getting in the big tent at all
thinking because they have seen the fat
woman and the educated hog, they have
really seen the whole circus. There were
three side-show electoral tickets in North
Carolina this year, but the great interest,"
in the big tents left very zeW to 80 to
them.
We give below the vote by counties cast
for the Palmer and Buckner. lowering

yer Prohibitionist). These were electors
at-large. Patterson (gold Democrat re-
ccived 57S votes, and II. j. Dowell (silver
ProhibitionisD got 245 votes, leading their
tickets.
There were counties that did not
throw away a single vote on the decoy
