Monday about ! o'clock an in
coming freight from Darlington came
in collision with a COW belonging to
Mr.. c. w. McGrew. Of this city,
with the result that the accident was
more unfortunate for the cow than
for the train. The COW was thrown
from the track and one of her hips
was broken.
The cow had been hitched near the
track and in some way had managed
to break loose from her fastening
and strayed upon the track. The
engineer saw the cow before he got
to her and attempted to stop the train
but was unable to do so in time and
the train hit the COW when IL was
coming to stop.

The Same aS Il Defeat.

The good roads bond issue election
resulted in a tie--403 for and 4O3
votes against the issue of bonds. The
Bloom Hill (Manchester township
report came in this morning and the
ection returns were completed.
There were only four votes cast at
Bloom Hill and all for the bond is
sue. The vote was small. it is true,
but to old Manchester belongs the
hOnor or casting a unanimous vote
for progress and development and
countrywide system of good roads.
Although the election resulted in
tie, it amounts practically to the
same thing as defeat, for the bonds
cannot be issued without a majority
vote having been cast authorizing
the issue Of bonds This means that
the good work Of building good
roads for all sections Of the coun-
ty has been obstructed and postpon-
ed for at least another year, as GER
tainly as if there had been a substan-
tial majority against the issue. 1t is
stated that the Election Committee
have no authority under the Act to
order another election and that moth
ing can be done until the next ses-
sion Of the legislature. This is to be
raRrQttQd ho m
good roads advocates have not been
discouraged by the outcome Of the
election and plans are already being
made to organize county good
roads league with subsidiary leagues
In every township. and systematic
campaign Of information and educa-
ton in favor of good roads will be
carried on until another election Is
held and the good roads battle Is
won. Everybody wants good roads
Or at least say they do-but there Ia
q difference of opinion as to how to
obtain them. There is also a reluc-
tance or disinclination to pay a small
additional tax to secure the great
boon Of good roads Immediately. The
purpose Of the good roads league will
be to harmonize the difference Of
opinion and to convince the doubters
that good roads will he worth di-
rectly and Immediately and every
day in the year far more than they
will cost. and that the tax of bad
roads is a far more grievous burden
than the proposed tax for the build
ing of good roads.
