RECORDESS COURT CREATED.
Manning Bill Passes Final Feeding and
viii Go into Effect.

The bill by Manning, establish
ing a recorders court for Dur
ham, has passed the final reading
and becomes a law. The full text
of the bill is known to most of
our citizens.
By this act Mr.. R. H. Sykes
becomes recorder at. a salary of
$1,000 a year and ]. E. Pegram
will be substitute and will re-
ceive a salary of four dollars per
day to be paid by the recorder.
Mr.. r. O. Everett viii b. prose-
cutter, while R. A. Harris will be
clerk.
AS previously stated the bill as
presented by Mr.. Manning had
some Objectionable features to
men that favored the idea Of hay-
ing a recorders court, and some
favored the idea Of giving the
mayor this power. and it can vel
be said that the measure would
possibly have been improved, but
for the Fact that many feared il
changes were made it would have
been defeated altogether.
As the matter is now fixed. i
remains to be seen whether tn,
claims of those in favor Of ano
those opposing it will be mad,
good.
