The Columbia State on Monday printed a list of opinions of the members of the lower house of the South Carolina General Assembly as to the calling of an extra session of the assembly for the purpose of taking action i a - ? * on tne gooa roaas, measure*. The following is the opinion given of the York members of the assembly: Representative Bradford: Noncommital as to his opinion as to an extra session. Mr. Bradford, however, is confident if the general assembly were called back, "a good J roads measure would be enacted in a very few days," Representative Hart: Opposed to extra session and does not think the members would agree if called back. He would sacrifice some to get a measure through, but would stand by the fundamentals of a general property tax, an abutting property tax 8nd automobile license taxes. Representative Nunn: Opposed to extra session as he does not believe the legislators are any nearer agreement^ than when adjournment was, taken two weeks ago. Fajlure to insert the referendum feature prevented passage of the measure last month, he thinks. , Representative Pursley: Op posed to an extra session as "it is uncalled for." The members would not agree. He can not put taxes on people, when so many of the people will derive no bemfit therefrom. He hopes the governor will not call an extra session. The Bridge Squabble. The Charlotte Observer printed the following Thursday with reference to the erection of the bridge across Catawba river: "Though the citizens of lower Mecklenburg county are reported to be divided in controversies over the location of the proposed bridge connecting this county and York county, S. C., the selection of the site, if the bridge is erected, will be left with the highway commissions of the two States, it was learned yesterday. "The erection of the bridge has not beep settled yet. The North Carolina legislature has passed a bill permitting this county to share with York eounty, S. C., the cost of the erection of the bridge, but no word has been received from the General Assembly of the. sister State, which was asked to pass a similar act. Chairman A. Morris McDonald. when asked last night for information on this subject, said he had not learned whether or not the South Carolina solons had passed the bill. A member of that body from York county had promised to notify him when the bill paseed, but he has not been notified. ' 'It was understood yesterday that differences of opinion exist ?i i. 11 i i^ci.wccii citi&eiiB ui lower flfiecnlenburg county over the location of the bridge, some wanting it at one point, others at another point and still others at a third point. Sites near Wright's ferry have been the one's suggested. "Petitions were presented to the Mecklenburg county commissioners at the last meeting of that body from various committees of citizens, all petitions asking the commissioners to place the bridge at different locations. The commissioners pointed out that they could make no promises in their inability to act on the matter, and nothing definite has resulted from the petitions.* . _ . . j -i.-'-i.'-.u-m'i .j.i j..g l STOLEN?From my home at Pineville on Friday, one Black, Horned Jersey Cow.

Because of the failure of appropriations by. the last congress, there *was no money with which to pay witnesses and jurors. The people of King's Mountain township appear to be very much interested in the idea of making the experiment of a township bond issue for road purposes. Petitions for an election have been circulated for some days past and from. the way the I petitions are being signed, it is reasonably certain that the election will be called; but as tQ whether the bonds will carry, of courso, depends upon future de velopments. There is nothing HI in sight up to the present time that seems to indicate to the contrary. A cottage occupied by the famity of Mr. William Ashe, in Jj the Neely mill village, was destroyed by fire last Tuesday afternoon. The Neely mill fire [ department was first on' the [j scene and the fire fighting force of the Yorkville Cotton Oil mill also brought a hose to the res- II cue; but not being quite able to r? reach the burning building, played on one of the houses near by. The city fire department answered the alarm prompt- U ly, and brought to be two streams from the mill reservoir. In spite of the efforts of the Neely i mill fire team and the city de- [[ partment the house was pretty [T well destroyed. Mr. Ashe's j family lost practically all of its household effects except the l| contents of two or three trunks. Should Have Included Chautanquas. At the recent session of the general assembly a bill was }= passed to outlaw the carnival in the State; but not until after many counties, including York, had been exempted and it was 1 made clear that the chautauqua was not to come within the pro- ? hibition. We do not mind saying that we wish York county had been included as one of the h j counties" prohibiting carnivals; r2 but perhaps the heavy license >ed tax now levied against this kind of nuisance will be sufficient act | As to the so-called chautauqua, * I we have no objection, except ?1? that we would like to see it wit stripped of its camouflage by Be which it inveigles people to pay- pu,j ing it a bonus to come and Teit escapes the license taxes it ought th< to pay the same as other entertainments of the same character that sail under true colors.
