, WHOSE BRIDGE IS IT?

A Queer Suit Begun BY The Wake Co.
Commissioners.
A novel suit has been begun in
the superior court of Wake county.
1t is against W. T. Rochelle, and is
for the recovery of a county bridge
which was across Neuse river, but
washed out by the recent freshet and
carried bodily down the stream and
drifted upon q bottom owned by Ro-
chelle.
He and several of his farm hands
went out curing the freshet and
chained the bridge to some trees, 80
that it could not wash further down
or be torn to pieces. When the coun-
ty authorities located the bridge b.
refus, d to allow them to move it.
The commissioners first offered to
pay Re cnelie ten dollars for his trou-
ole in claiming the bridge, or rattle
as q sort Of prize money, but he re-
fused to accept it claiming the full
value of the bridge. Then the pres
emit suit was instituted.
The bridge was at Lawrence. 1t is
q covered wooden bridge, ninety-slx
feet long, and is securely pinned to-
ge.her. 1t was erected six feet above
the highest water ever before known,
and was supposed to be one of the
most secure bridges in the county.
Rochelle claims that he secured
the bridge while it was fl Eating and
is entitled To it, as to other timber
that floats to lis land. The county
authorities hold that Mr.. Rochelle il
not entitled to the bridge and that i,
does not come under the rule re-
garding q ,ating timber.

There was cloud burst in the

than 200 people were drowned.
Thirty miles of the Norfolk and

ment." "Here," 1t says, sis q good

Mclaurinism and Hannaism-they

In North Carolina" The organ saws
that Senator Pritchard's party "was
repudiated by 10000 majority i'm

have sent to the penitentiary the
whole band Of thieves for which the
News and Observer Ii sponsor. That
was test Of the strength Of red
shirt thieves and highwaymen, the
result Of which has caused the decent
people of this state to hang their
heads with shame. If any one
should resign In North Carolina 1t
should be the man who has stolen
goods In his possession, In order that
the people may select q person Of
their choice. Mr.. Pritchard was
elected to the senate by the people
at time when fair and honest cleo.

when no democrat claimed or for

Of the right to vote and
to have this vote counted, while on
the other hand F. M. Simmons was
elected to the senate by frauds Of the
grossest kind, to say nothing of in
timidation, blood-shed and violence
which prevailed in eastern North
Carolina. This latter is the sim-
perialism" that North Carolina Is
with, the kind that Sim
mons rose to power on, the loot
from which has sustained the News
and Observer. The time will
come when the people of North
Carolina will vote whether or not
they approve this imperialism of
