CHAPEL A|LL|Ahs CO OVER
VISIT RALEIGH 10 PROTEST
AGAINST WITHDRAWAL, or BILL

- A. number OF the leading citizens
Of Chapel Hill went over to Raleigh
Tuesday morning. to enter theirprotest
against the proposed withdrawal OF
the bill introduced by General Carr
seeerasaodayss ages authorizing the
Southern to tear up the road from
University Station to Chapel Hill
whenever a road was completed from
Durham TO Chapel Hin.
Considerable opposition has devel-
oped against the proposed new road
within the past few days fsom those
living along the route OF the old
road. II has developed that when
the present road was;built. the CON-
pany entered into contracts with the
landowners along the route agreeing
TO operate the road for certain
length OF time II the right OF way
was given them. This being the
case, the present bill allowing the
read 10 be discontinued, would be
unconstitutional. Under the consti-
tuition, the legislature has not the
power 10 make a law that would in
any way impair contract, or that
wouli authorize one party TO con-
tract to break the contract. Those
who object 10 the passage OF the bill
declare that this would result II the
bill goes through. 1T seems. just
NOV. that those who oppose the new
road will be able to make out their
case. II they do. the bill will have
20 be withdrawn. This will mean
thar the whole enterprise will have
to be abandoned for the present.
The citizens Of Chapel Hill. who
are yery anxious 10 have the new
road built. hope that there is some
wayto overcome this obstacle They
will put up a strong fight 10 have
j thesbill passed az this session and 4
have the work OF construction begir
as soon as possible. II the present
bill fails OF passage. IL Is very prob
able that another plan will be tried
ard IL Is almost certain that the road
will be built Some time in the neal
future.
