THURSDAY. MARCH 20. 1919.
Straw Vote en Extra Seitiea.
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.*

transacted, and because. of the
unusually large number of
.prisoners who plead guilty,
things went along quite rapidly.
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. The ?
lyceum graft, too. is exactly on
the same basis as the chautau- Kl
qua.?Yorkville Enquirer.
