Amid It all there was the protest from Mr C B Foy, who maintained to the end that the road ought not to be leased, There were plenty of notables on hand, and the talent was at great as could be gathered together. Governor Aycock, Ex Governor Tom Jarvls, At torney General Gilmer, James H Pou, Theo F Davidson, Ex-Judge Womack, were the greater light i from a distance, while nearby there were men who equalled the above mentioned gentle men in the way of making leases or any thing else. It was a brilliant gathering but there was little actually to do. The opponents of the lease knew the trade was made, the vote was for the lease, and while there was hint of Injunction or ; restraining orders, none eould be consummated. It was nearly 12 30 noon yesterday, when James A Bryan called tha meeting to order, by nominating J E Robinson for temporary chairman, and Geo Green secretary and 0 L Stevens, assistant secretary.

The temporary organ isation was made permanent. Mr J W Grainger State proxy said he had two propositions for lease, which were ac ceptable to Governor and Mr Ballard of Board Internal Improvements. Through mistake, the proposition of Philadelphia syndicate was first read. Two propositions, first from Golda- boro, New Bern and Morehead City rail road company, a proposed corporation, and second by R 8 Howland of Ashe ville. The first was signed by W L Ken nedy, B B Borden, William Dunn, and WS Chadwlck, gentlemen all living along the road and well known In this section. Both propositions were nearly ldentl cal, lease for 98 years, Interest at 8 per cent for first twenty years, 8 j, 4 and 5 per cent each successive ten years and 8 per cent for balance of lease time- There were the uausl guarantees at to protec tlon of property with deposits of $100,- 000 for guarantee fund. The Howland proposition offered $880,000 to be spent in Improvements and equipments with In three years on property. When propositions had been read by secretary, BC Duncan offered resoln tlon that the Howland proposition be accepted for 91 years, i months, and to Include Atlantic Hotel property and ac ceptance of remaining Indebtedness on property. Col Theo F Davidson made a speech telling of Mr Howland, how he was known at AahevUle, what he had done, Investing $800,000 In Western Carolina, and how ha was esteemed by those who knew him. Also told of Mr Howland's property holdings In other places. C E Foy, said he entered a protest against lease and gave notice Hut If lease was made It would be tested In eourt. OA Flowers proxy Pamlico county said he agreed with Mr Foy and that his people would favor from 86 or 00 year lease at6 per cent for first 98 years, one per cent each additional ten years, with $l,500,000security deposit by leasee.
