RAILROAD MASS MEETING
A HPLENDID MBGTINO IN THK
COURT HOt HK TO-DAY.
Ringing; Hpeechcs From Gen, R
B. Vance, J. M. Campbell, state
Auditor aanderlln, Colonel Long;
and Captain Atkinson, -
There was a splendid meeting in the
court house to-day to bear the railroad
question discussed, and it really looked
as if the people had determined to carry
the proposition on Monduy.
Capt. James Smith was made chair
man, and Cnpt. Nntt Atkinson made a
rousing speech as a leader. Capt. Atkin
son is clearly in dend earnest in the mat
ter, nnd gare every reason why the peo
ple should vote for the measure without
any fcnr of the etrwnship's daring to pay
one cent of principal or interest. In
the first place the townships have
a first mortgage on the road to
secure both principal and interest. Sec
ondly, they will have the pledge of $100,
000 solvent stockholders that the in
terest will be paid annually. Thirdly,
they will own two-thirds of the stock,
and the road enn never lie turned over to
any corporation without the consent of
the townships.
(Sen. R. B. Vance was the next speuker,
and his talk was intended to arouse the
voters to a sense of the importance of
their going to the polls and voting. He
spoke of the untold and incalculable ad
vantages which accrue to any people bv
reason of railroads, and especially com
peting lines. Gen. Vance referred to the
Asheville and the Western North Caroli
na of his hovhood dnys.andthe Asheville
and the Western North Carolina of to
day, and declared that it was the rail
roads which, more than any other agen
cy, brought it about. He declared that
any man who favored the progress of his
section was a patriot.
(len. Vance's Siei-ch was loudly ap
plauded throughout.
J. M. Campm-H made a stirring talk,
which wns well received.
R. M. l-'urman called the attention ol
the audience to the presence of State
Auditor 0. V. Siin-li rlin in the room, and
call" lieing made, Mr. Sanderlin delivered
a short talk in which he declared that
ere manv e.irs Western North Carolina
would be the hub of the industrial activi
ties o the country, and Asheville would
Ik- the centre ot the hull.
Col. T. B. Long closed the speeches.
and the large crowd proceeded to enjoy
tlie Hundreds ol hue watermelons pre
pared for them by the committee.
It was a good mcctinu nnd evcr.vthinu
passed off pleasantly, nnd the railroad
appropriation was unquestionably uiven
a great boost.
ASHAI'LTKH AN OFFICIvR,

wills Officer Leonard.
Late yesterday alternoon Officer C. H.

who lives near Ray's stable, -in South

Other parties ran up and the two men
were arrested and taken to the jail and

offered for the prisoners, but Chief Mc-
! well ilecioeq not to accent it, as Leon
ard's wounds were considered serious
Newland nnd Deprato were left in jail
until this morning, when they had a
hearing helore Recorder Miller on two
charges, one for committing a nuisance
unci the other tor resisting nnd assault
ing the officer. W. W. Jones, esq., rejv
resented the defendants and City At
torney Cobb directed the prosecution.
l tie men were hnen 9ft each on the hrst
charge, and bail in the second case was
placed at $200 each for their apenrniice
at the next term of the criminal court.
They apea1ed from the decision in the
first case, and furnished the bond re
quired and were discharged.
lirncer Leonard received two or three

bruised in several places, but his injuries
are not considered serious.
