Improvements. r f , ' - About forty citizens assembled in the city hall Tuesday night to hear the report of the committee appointed at a former mass meet bp; for the purpose, of finding out the real needs of the town. Mayor V Armstrong: called the meeting to order and Prof. J. S. Wray was chosen chairman with Mr. H u g b -Lonz secretary. Chairman Armstrong of th com mittee reported that the neces sary extensions of the water and light systems would take at least $15,000. Mr. S. M. Morris re ported for the streets. He stated that $25,000 would cover the ex- pense ot tne street 'improve ments. Mr Morris was not in favor of spending mucn money on the streets. A good macadam street, he said, is all that is nec essary. ,. ;:' ; , .:. -' V" NEEDS OF THE SCHOOLS. Mr. J." H. Separk reported on behalf of the schools. He said: "The schools need at least $15,- 000 and if all the necessary equip mentsxand additions are made to the Central school building it will take something like $25,000." Mr' Separk also stated that the schools should be provided for in preference toNtverything else'; that the streets'cotUd be made a side issue. Cbairmanray.wha is, by tne way, principal or tne graded - school system and has been since its beginning; also spoke in behalf of the schools, confirming what Mr. Separk; bad said regarding the schools needs, but went Mr. Separk one better by stating that Main street should receive the first consid eration. ",.- " The discussion was not? very freely engaged in and. with the exception of the schools, the other needs of the ; town were not fully brought out , ; In order to put,; the matter 3 before , the, meeting in proper form, Mr. J. K. Dixon offered a motion for an election on a bond issue of $75,? 000, to be divided in " the foUow ing ratio; Schools, $20,000: wa ter, lights and sewerage $20, 'CHERRYVILLE CHAT.

Afterwards . t h e discussion turned to the proposed street car line.. Mayor C. B. Armstrong stated that the town should have a car line connecting tne Mint and Arlington Mills, bringing the people of the town nearer to gether, x He stated further that such a line could be built "for $10,000 a mile or a total of $40, 000. This amount be said could be easily raised by the business men of the town' and, although the line would not pay a dividend for a number of years, it. would pay them iu anbther way. This line, Mr. Armstrong said, could easily be extended Jo Lowell, McAdenvilie and Bessemer City and probably to Kings Moun tain.; The., mayor's ; words re garding the car.Jine were greet ed, with applause - and met; tot approval of those present. Mf. R. B. Babington also spoke in favor of the proposed line, stat ing that be would be -one of the forty men to give $1,000 for this purpose. 7 However, as. the meet ing was not ready to go further into the car line business and as it was not called for that pur pose, po , definite - action - was taken i . . , Vi v,'- The people of Gastonia .are fully aware of tbemany ad van tages, a . car line "Would bnn. The spirit of building an electric car line; ; to be colftrolled by Gastoniaus, has been throughly afbused. ; Gastonia is in far bet-, ter shape for it and the prospects are brighter for a car lifite than they were in Some other ot our cities when they first built them. 'A car line from the Arlington -to the Flint Mill would bring the people of the. town into closer relations and would greatly re duce the distances from these places to the merchants up town.

Wilmington Me aencer. , : ,:.",, Henry Watterson says that if Mr. Bryan will withdraw from the race he has a dark horse which be will enter and will guarantee winning with him. The Washington Star makes a guess as to who Mr. Watterson's dark . norse is and names Hon Adlai Stevenson, of Illinois. In an editoral on the suject we find the following paragraphs : "What is the matter with the Hon. Adlai Stevenson, of Illi nois? . What Democrat dares say that he is not all right? "Mr. Stevenson 'is a good organization man' . and; does not live east of the Alleghenies,: nor south of the Potomac aud Ohio.' : His only alliances' are such as have - entangled' him with both factions of the party, and most agreeably with both 1 Observe the appeal that could be made iri bis behalf of botb.V V "Mr. Stevenson & relation with the Cleveland people are excel.' ent. tie served during-the rust Cleveland administration as first assistant postmaster general, and during the second as Vice Presi dent, He was exceedingly popu- ar in both offices.

Heads fell until baskets could bold no more. As presiding officer of the Sen ate, ; Mr. Stevenson met every requirement"' of that post of great dignityoiud responsibility. "Mr. bteveoson's relations with the Bryan people are prob ably quite as cordial. His nom ination for Vice President in 900 was most agreeable to the Bryanites, and his part in the campaign was performed witn marked zeal. It was no fault of his that "the ticket failed. He did not weaken it at any point." i - Wednesday afternoon, while en route to the Jamestown Exposition from Richmond, the Southern Pub lishers Association elected Mr, J. P. Caldwell, of The Charlotte Observer, vice president of the. association. At the night session in Norfolk the association decided to hold its next annual'meeting in Charlotte, N. C. , IN FAVOR OF BRIDGE."- Petitions Beioi Largely Sifned In Behill ol Bridie Ovtr Ca llwba at Rozs elle's Ferry. Charlotte' News. 22d. v .1' If largely signed petitions from all parts of the county mean any thing, it seems likely , hat the board of county, commissioners will take ' formal action on a the question of . building a bridge over the Catawba river at Roz zelle's Ferry within the imme diate future. When this ques tiun was brought up at the May mettiiu cf the board, strong pressure was brought to- bear upon the members as to the great necessity for the bridge. The - board having v no large amount . of money at its disposal deferred action until a later date. with the understanding that the matter would be placed before the people in the shape of peti tions to be signed by all those favoring an appropriation of $15-, 000 for this purpose. The papers were well distributed throughout the county and it seems. now that representative citizens are heartily in favor of building the bridge at once. The majority of the business men of the city ninety-nine per cent, of them, it is said are urging the action. The agitation has spread until the entire -county almost seems to have caught up tne spirit of the movement. There remains no doubt in the minds of the voters that it would be an in vestment . which would ' make valuable returns. . &6crlb5 for THE GAZETTE. NOTICE. The J. D.
