COURT LIKELY TO
HOLD UP SEABOARD
Agreement That Railroads Shall
Bear Expense OF North Carolina
Legislature Most Unusual.
PROPOSITION is ASTOUNDING
One Newspaper Declares That.
Transportation Companies
Are Being Held Up.
PROPOSITION is ASTOUNDING

Admission by Governor Glenn. OF
North Carolina, that the railroads had
agreed to pay $4,000 toward liquidat
iEg tho expense of converting an extra
session OF the Legislature is regarded
here as the most astounding and un-
usual proposition on record. Though
not disposed to criticize the affair,
Virginia officials and law makers quiet
ly admit that by whatever name 1t
may be called. this subsidy Is nothing
more or less than bribery.
May Not Accept 1t.
In some quarters 1t was suggested
that after the General Assembly meets
1T will refuse, by resolution, TO permit
the transportation companies to pay
the bills, inasmuch as 1t would desire
Ito be free and untramneled in the
C, nsidcration of measures directly Af-
fecting the railroad companies. Til.
refusal of the Atlantic Coast Line TO
accept the Governors compromise plan
necessarily means that tho Southern
Railway and the Seaboard Air Line
will bear the cost. The fact. however.
that the Seabcard is in the hands OF
'receivers and that all claims against
lit of this unusual character must be
Improved by the United States court
rrar possibly lead to a tangle. even
liz the Legislature should quietly ac-
|cuicsce and accept money from these
corporations which the State itself
should pay.
Primarily, the roads would gain
more than they wood lose, provided
the Legislature increases the passen-
ger rate from Ia cents to 1-a
cents, with some modification in the
freight laws, although there would &c
a fine kettle of fish If the old rate
should stand. after the railroads had
paid part Of the cost of an extra ses-
sion.
say Rouds Are Held Up.
Declaring that the roads have been
HELD up. tho Greensboro News adds:
we admit that North Carolina
! is not rich State. but we never
thought the Gay would come when
She would be too poor and too de-
pendent upon corporate aid to bear
| the expense of meeting of her
| own Legislature. particularly when
that body is called TO undo past
| transgressions."
! The rate fight in North Carolina
within the past six months attracted
widespread attention. and now that
| the State is to amend the law so that
the roads may not be subjected 10
| further financial loss and more dire
consequences. the statement that they
must pay for inc relief comes as a
climax to a long series of sensations.

THIRD MAN NAMED
FOR BOLL|NG'S PLACE
Superintendent Sharpe, OF Man
chester, May Be Candidate with
Marshall and Davis.

With the announcement yesterday
that Mr.. Charles IT. sharpe. Superin-
tendent of the Manchester Water
Works would probably be a candidate
for the position made vacant by the
promotion of Superintendent Charles
u. Boiling, applicants for that office
may wake up with a slludder to-day.
Thus far the race had narrowed down
to a contest between Assistant Superin-
tendent r.. T.. Davis and MY. William p.
Marshall neither of whom has "a sur
ficicnt number Of pledges to guarantee
his election. There was some intima-
ton that Mr.. Jackson Bottoms friends
would persuade him to become a cans
didate, and now Mr.. Sharpe may add
a little ginger to tho fight.
The fact that Mr. Sharpe Is a resi-
dent OF Manchester will not prevent
his, election, should he have the neces-
sary votes,
BY moving over tho river lie could
qualify, and. indeed, If there was any
apprehension on that score, and II, he
had the majority with him, 1t would
not be a difficult matter to amend the
ordinances 1t was said, however, on
high authority that he would not be
disqualified on the ground that hc lived
In Manchester.
His Friends Are ut Work.
Mr.. Sharpe, While declining to say
yesterday whether or not he was a
candidate, admitted that number or
prominent citizens of Richmond, some
of whom We're IN the City Corncil.ahnA
been working in his behalf. He has
been superintendent Of the Manchester
Water Works since 1900, is thoroughly
familiar with the duties ofWater de-
Spartments, and is a man WHOSE ability

Without any attempt at self-glorifi-

to lose him again through the latter's
desire to wave signal of thanks and

He realized the danger, but he did not
falter. his one regret being that Eddie
Barnes was swept TO his doom when
no mortal man could save him.
