WE WILL
HAVE THEM
Railway Franchise Sold
Saturday to H. IA. Dali
ton For $121.
$4,000 BOND REQUIRED.
Large Crowd Present and Elk
pected to See Lively
Bidding.

The franchise for constructing and
operating a system of electric cars
and furnishing electric lighss in this
city, for a period of twenty years,
was sold in front of the City Hall
last Saturday by City Clerk McMath.
The first bid knocked the per-
simmons, as a second offer was not
made. Mr.. billiard M. Dalton, who
had formerly made application to
the city Council for the franchise,
was the bidder.
Mr.. Dalton was asked by a repre-
sentative of this paper if he meant
business and was going to build the
road. His very emphatic reply was:
"IFI DON'T, THE CITY GIFTS $1,000
FOR NOTHING. IF l DIDN'T EXPECT
TO BUILD THE RAILWAY | WOULDN'T
PUT UP a $4,000 FORFEIT BOND. 1
HAVEN'T COT SO, 900 TO GIVE TO HOP
KINSvILLE OR ANYBODY ELSE. "
The above are the exact words of
Mr.. Dalton-no more no less. He is
a man of action and many enter
prises, and if there is a man in our
midst who knows how to get men
who have capital interested in the
development of Hopkinsville Mr..
Dalton is believed to be the man.
Under the provisions Of the fran
chise sold Mr.. Dalton has ninety
days to begin actual work. The
following section of the franchise
has no uncertain sound.
Sec. 13. The rights herein convey
led are subject to the following con-
ditionss towit: That HiHiard NJ.
Dalton, or any. person or persons,
company or corporation who may
buy this FRANCHISE when sold, shall,
before such sale is confirmed and
ratified by the Board of Council, ex-
ecute TO the City of Hopkinsville. a
bond in the sum of three thousand
dollars ($3,OOO.0O,) with approved
surety, conditioned that in the event
such purchaser should fail to erect
such railway and lighting plant and
have same in operation within twelve
months from the granting Cf this
franchise, then said bond is to be-
come forfeited to the city of Hop
kinsville.
