Davidson of Charlotte was killed
by a street car last Friday ufter

ted from anv blame. OI the very
mid accident The Observer relates
the particular as follows:
Mr. Andrews hail charge 01 a
force of live hands ami was repair
ing the trolley along North Tiyon
street. At the tune of the ac
cident they were engaged in
mending the trolley "I Hie switch
where the line turns from Tryon
street, going into Ward 4. Ihe
Davidson child mid several other
liiiHlreii were playing on me shcci
and had Is-en on the car, but were
onlcied off by the workmen.
t 4 o clock the construction
ear, which was aiiac 1 10 a pas
sengcr car, was bucked down to
ward the depot mi us to let I lu
st rcct cars pass in and out of Win d

in each direction, Ihe const nu t ion
car, pushed ny tne passeugur car

the trolley.
Mr. Andrews was at (lie motor
in the passenger rat and the David
son child swung on to the trout ot
the work car, where lie was cut oil
from the vision of Mr. Andrews.
As the car started the little fellow
lost his irriii and fell, his head
strikinir on the rail. He screamed
and several ersoiis who saw the
occurrence shouted to the motor-
man. When Mr. Andrews heard
the cries he cut off the current to
let the car run back dow n grail
but it was too late. The wheel had
already passed over the liend of the

"What is your plat form!" naked
a Journal reitoiter of the several
ccnllflucti who have announced
themselves as candidates for may

For Mayor.
We suggest the name of X. S.
Otrburn as a suitable mayor lor tne
city of Monroe. He is a first class
man in every way and would give
us a clean, no to date business ad

lieve that Mr. Oghnru would lie a
more suitable man just at this time
and nuder present circumstances.
