NO POWER TO GIVE
RIGHT TO RAILWAY
Mayor or Town Council Of
Takoma Has No Authority.
COUNSEL GIVES DECISION
Opinion and Application for License to
Tear Up Street Referred to
l. Ordinance Committee.

Neither mayor nor town council has
the right to grant any corporation the
exclusive use OF one of the public roads
Of the town of Takoma.
This was the decision of the attorney
for the Takoma council, submitted in a
report read at last nights meeting of
that body, held in the Presbyterian
chapel, on Carroll avenue.
The report also declared that Mayor
Kinnear had iot exceeded the limits
of his authority, and had acted only
right and properly, in ordering the men
to stop work whom he found engaged,
without license, in tearing up the
roadbed.
Report of Counsel.
The meeting was held mainly for the
purpose of hearing the report of the at
torney for the Takoma council to whom
the body had applied for an opinion as
to whether or not Mayor kinnear had
exceeded the limits of his authority,
when he ordered the work stopped, and
also for legal advice as to the propriety
of granting the railroad company a
license permitting them to continue
operations.
This action was brought about by
a statement Hldue Dy htlIeU, pI6Sl-
dent of the Baltimore and Washington
Transit Company. who, at the first
meeting held by the council after the
men had been ordered to stop work,
declared he doubted the legal right OF
the council to prohibit men employed
by the company from carrying out their
orders
At last nights meeting Mr.. Meller
presented a petition asking that the
company be granted a license to resume
operations.
Must Procure Permit.
In reply the report of the attorney fol
the council was read, which, after nu
merous objections to the granting of th'
desired license, stated:
I'VE, therefore, are of the opinion:
First, that a permit from the prope
authorities must be obtained before th'
company begins any work of reconstruc
ton
Second, that the granting of such
permit is entirely optional with the cor
porate body of the town.
Third, that the exclusive use of an.
portion of the highways cannot be givel
by the mayor and the council.

6.-Eastern markets reported a
light run of cattle last week, but

On the Denver market there was II

were still unable to furnish enough
cars and buyers took hold slowly.
Everything sold daily but at prices

fore. The yards are now well
cleared and plenty of cars in sight.
Receipts for the last three weeks
have averaged over 1900 head per
day and practically everything

were in demand by the packers
last week, but common and half
fat kinds little slow. Some
choice sold at q IS but few landed
above 1855 and bulk only good
enough to bring 81 to $3.50. Cows
sold up to $3.50 with the bulk of
the weeks business Mt 1920 to
$2.75. Bulls were about steady ut
$l.75 to $500 and veals ranged
largely from t3 to n. Choice
feeders sold around $3.50 freight
paid, with the bulk of the business
ut e so to 1886. Trade to-day
was late 10 starting but was active
after it did get under way. Prices
were about steady. Over $500
arrived. Eastern markets had
good run and prices again weak to

Sheep receipts continue heavy

4 Richly Endowed country.

The Aberdeen g. Rockfish Railroad
now operates a double daily passen-
ger train with comfortable cars be-
tween Aberdeen and Hope Mills The
travelling public will do well to no.
tice the several connections this road
makes with the Atlantic Coast Line
North and South, and with the Sea-
board Air Line and Aberdeen q Ashe-
boro Railroad. Passengers from Fay
etteville to Charlotte will save from
six to twelve hours by routing by
Aberdeen e Rockfish Railroad.
This road running from Hope Mills
to Aberdeen passes through parts of
Cumberland. Robson and Moore
counties, and on the line of this rail-
road is some of the finest farming
lands in the State. The cotton farms
around Raeford are fast becoming as
much talked about as those of MARI
boro, S. c., and the lands along the
western part of the road are unsur-
passed for melons and fruits
The famous Bethune Hill is a point
of interest on the line of the road, as
being a place where fruits have never
been known to be killed by late frosts
in the spring.
The fine trucking lands from Hope
Mills to Raeford along this line, are
fast being taken up, and advancing
in price. and home-seelSers have q
rare opportunity to locate alone the
line of this railroad, where with the
generous soil. and the oofiging ship
ping facilities they will surely find
ell the desirable features for profit
able farming.
Raeford, a town OF some 1000
population, is located midway between
Aberdeen and Hope Mills, and has
many enticing features bas a home.
Excellent high and preparatory
schools churches substantial bank,
and n number of mills that furnish
all the best building materials. The
town is fast growing.
The water power along the line of
this road is enormous and would in
itself raalIe the country rich in time.
The streams are as clear as crystal,
and are not affected by the severest
droughts.
This is q glorious section of our
country, and is destined TO be densely
populated.

John Nipper Holds Off Grandfather
With a Shot Gun.

A case involving Kidnapping and
the contemplated use of a gun was
heard by Justice of the Peace Barbee
yesterday.
John Nippur, of Barton's Creek,
was the defendant. He and his wife
have been separated for two or three
years and some time ago Nippnr got
possession of their child a girl ten
years old, who was with her mother
at her grandfather's.
Nippur took the child to his moth
er and soon thereafter the maternal
grandfather, Mr.. c.. II. Barlow, ap-
peared on the scene seeking his grand
daughter. Nippur, it is alleged, got
out his shot gun and warned Mr.. Bar
low to keep away or he would shoot.
The grandfather kept away
Nippur has been bound over for an

weapon, and the courts will have to

learned today that Mrs. Stanford had
been worried for a number of weeks
before the attempt was made to poi
son her on January IA, by an insane
Chinese named Wong Toy Wong. The
fellow wrote her a letter in which he
demanded that she give him 100000,
which he said he had on deposit in
the Leland Stanford, Jr., University
Trust Bank, a mythical institution.
The man hung around the Stanford
residence until he was arrested by a
detective. He was sent to an insane
asylum on February 8. Both the
private detectives and the local po-
lice deny they ever suspected this
Chinese of poisoning Mrs. Stanford. 1t
is known, however, that they spent
much time in tracing his movements.

LOCALIZED PRIMARY.
Raleigh's City Primary Will be Held
Under the New Law.

1t is hoped and expected that the
new legalized primary election law
just passed by the legislature viii
prove as satisfactory to Raleigh as the
same act has proven to the people d
Charlotte, N. c., from which the Raj
eigh act was largely copied.
This law will apply to our APP
preaching city election next May. II
applies also to all county elections IN
Wake provided the Democratic Exec
utive Committee OF the county SO elect,
it being mandatory only as to the city
election.
This act was passed at the instanc"
Of the city executive committee, and
was adopted by unanimous vote by
the committee after a full text OF the
bill had been prepared and presented
by q subcommittee consisting or
Chairman Jas. e. Pogue, Hon. jose
phus Daniels, b. c.. Beckwith, E. l..
Harris and City Attorney Walter Wat
son.
The purpose of the legalized pri-
mary act is simply to secure an hon
est expression of the choice or the
voters in the interest of harmony and
fair play
