his vote on the bill. He said there
were a number of amendments he
would be pleased to see in the bill. He
saw an evident determination on the
part of the House t take the bill just
as it stands. Looking at the bill, as lie
did, and after hearing , the remarks of
Judge Merrimon, he could not 'make
up his mind to vote for the bill. He
said he thought,, nay, he believed, that!
there, was something wrong in thi3:
thing. There wa3ome power behind
the throne. He said there was an;
amazing inconsistency, a fatal blind
ness, in? going into a thing in this way.
It was like being swindled with open
eyes, to support a bill so full of errors.
He thought it better to put a stop to
the matter now, and rather let it break
down than to go on a little while and
then break. He said the reason giyen
for selling the road was that the state
was not able to build it. Yet we sell
it to Mr. Best, allowing him to contract
a debt of $850,000 on the Taint Rock
branch, and then, perhaps, let this fall
upon the state. The Dodr,impoverishedL
state also Jias to pick up. ; the matter
wnere Mr. I5est left eft, and complete
the branch to Duektown.
It will be seen that our members
from New Hanover, Messrs. Scott and
Waddtll, as well as' Mr. Brooks from
Brunswick, and Mr. Ro3s of that county
in the Senate, voted, nay, while Mr,
Neweli of Bladen, and Mr. Norracnt of
Robeson, Republicans, voted, aye.
The end of this fatal transaction is
not seen yet. The "elephant" is not
yet rid ofj If the parties represented
by Best c6mpiy with the teFms of the
act this great thoroughfare will have a
debt so great that it will go into the
hands of receivers for default of inte
rest, aud if they don't comply the road
will be returned to the state heavilv
and hopelessly encumbered, and
un
finished.

the failure of f o many of the woolen

tho interests both of the wool growers
and wool manufacturers cannot be mat
