PEOPLE TO DECIDE
CITY GOVERNMENT
City Commissioners Adopt Resolution
to Held Special Election to De-
tern;ne Form.

Mayor Sanders introduced a resolu-
ton at the meeting of the city COM
missioners yesterday which was adopt
ed, providing that a special election
be called for the purpose of ascer-
tanning whether or not the commits
sion form Of government VIII be aban-
doned and the old aldermanic form
assumed again. The date of the cleo
ton named in the resolution is Jan. 81,
and the taxpayers will decide the aues-
tfon at the polls.
In October, 1919. petition signed
by 20 per cent of the qualified voters
or the city was fled with the clerk
of the circuit court, requesting that
special election be called to deter
mine whether or not the city should
revert back to the aldermanic form Of
government. After this petition had
been duly fled with the circuit clerk,
he certified to the city commissioners
that the petition had been. filed calling
for the election. but the commissioners
contended that the petition had not
been properly filed. and the matter
was carried into the circuit court.
Judge Campbell sustained the de-
murrer set up by the city commits
sioners. and later the case was APP
pealed to the supreme court by the
petitioners. The higher court re-
versed the decision of the lower court.
and subsequently Judge Campbell is
sued mandanus to compel the com
missioners to call the election. But
that body still contended that the pc
ton had not been properly filed in ac-
cordance with existing statutes, and
fled an answer denying the claims of
the petitioners, after which Judge
Campbell issued another mandamus
and the case was again carried to the
supreme court.
This time the higher court ruled in
favor of the petitioners. Judge West,
in his ruling, declared that the petit
ton had been properly filed, which
had the effect of requiring the COM
to call the election. They
did so by the resolution introduced
and adopted yesterday.
The resolution provides that the
election be held on Jan. 81 and fur

Colofed Wedding.

Quite an event in the colored
portion of Rockingham's popula
ton was the marriage at A. M.
E. Zion church Wednesday night
if F. S. Dobbins, head waiter of
the Seaboard hotel at Hamlet,
and Mollie, the daughter OF
Aunt" Mollie Crawford. The
affair was carried out to the
minutest detail, ushers, solo,
groomsmen and bridesmaids. Al
ter the wedding, which was wit
messed by an overlooking church,
among whom we're many white
friends, the mother of the bride
gave a reception. The refresh
ments were of the kind that
Aunt" Molly knows so well how
to make. Aunt" Molly, as every
one knows, is the official caterer
for the city, and her many white
friends are naturally interested
i'm what happens in her family
After the reception the couple
went to Jacksonville on a wed
ding trip.

Ring Recovered.

About two years ago (early in
December, 1919 Misses Mary
and Katie McLaurin, of Johns
Station, lost a very valuable dla-
moad ring, valued at $500. No
trace could be found of it, but 1t
was strongly believed that a
colored boy who worked around
the house, had stolen it.
Last Saturday night a colored
girl, Minnie Ingram, entered the
Helms Jewelry store here at
Rockingham, and showing Mr..
Helms a diamond ring, asked
him what it was worth. Mr..
Helms at once realized that it
was a very valuable stone, but
told her it was worth about $500.
He made anote of her name. AS
soon as she left the store, he
phoned the chief of police, S. E.
Covington, about the circum-
stances. Mr.. Covington at once
over to the woman's house about
5 miles from town, in Wolf Pit,
and secured the ring from her.
On Monday Mr.. H. W. McLau-
rim and the two ladies came to
Rockingham and had no hest
fancy in identifying the ring as
being their property. So CAD
were they to recover it that they
were willing to let the matter
drop and prosecute no one.
