?Ibc ZTimes, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER IS, 189S. On Mayor’s Day last week it ivos not generally


noticed that tho oustomarj’ vote of thanks to the Mayor for his services during tlia year was omitted.


I t now appears i» have been an oversight, per­


haps brought about through the inclusion of so many now members in tho Council during tho last year.


--------:o : -------- At in,igliifc,-also, the Glee Party miss’ed the cno


for tho musical honours at the itoast of “ The Mayor,” and it was only edged iu when the Mayor got up to respond. ----------— -------------


Thcro was, hut a very small assemblage of tlie


Liberal electors at the Club last night to wel­ come tho candidate of the coming fight. --------! o : --------


Tills must act upon tho leaders of tho party


in a very discouraging manner. I t may bo the rule of tho Liberals not to attend meetings, but to do tlioir work independently, but if so, it makes us wonder what is the use of holding


these meetings a t all. -------- : o : ---------


At tho Liberal Club last night. Councillor Cow-


gill entered into what we think is a very serious indiotmeiiH of tho -.aotioni of the Conservativo


mojoritj' in tlie Town Council. -----------: 0: -----------


In short, his charges are that the Conserva-


tivc.s, by a ruse, got tho oleotiqn of committees deCerrcil from tho Cocklo and Mussel Feast to WiB morning of tho 9th November, and that then, knowing Iho retiring Aldermen would bo unable to vote, iiackod tho committees, more notably the Watch Committee.


Now, as everj-one knows, tho Watch is a com-


mitteo upon which, by oustom, only the oldest members of the Council are eleotdl to sit, and


according to Councillor Cowgill, no new mem­ ber stands, or desires to stand any chauee of election.


--------: o : -------- Yet, according to him, the Conservatives not


only puh off tlio committee Alderman Sefton and Councillor Parker, but in tboir place, and con­ trary to all precedent, elected the new members of tho Counsil, doini even to Councillor Har- daci'o.


-------- :o : -------- Tliis appears to be a charge that requires an­ swering. -------- : 0 : --------- Now that tho final result of I'hc iiomiiiations is


to hand, it appears tliall after all, wo were not so very far from the mark of our predictions of last Friday.


A SILVER CUP, value XG Cs., will be given by the Proprietors of the Auction Mart for Hie best ANIMAL on the Ground.


- :o :- Mr. William Garnett, as we anticipated, did


not offer himself, ineitlier pUd Mr. Ormcrod. Also the Liberals only iiominnted one candidate, iiiul our forecast Hint Mr. Weeks would bo one


of tlio Conservative caiididatas, also proves to bo correct. Mr. S. Green was nominated, but ns it was


romombered that lio was a tcaclior employed un­ der tho Corporation, that circumslanco debarred him from becoming a candidate. -------- : o : ---------


At the Liberal Club last night, Mr. James


Robinson, of Brooklunds, laid u good deal of stress upon the action of tbo Conservatives in tlireateuing do object to his candidature, but it seems to us tlie question is perhaps a little deeper than tliat.


Suppose the Conservatives bad not raised the


objection at (iliis early stage, wliat would have liappcrted? I f Mr. Greeu had been elected, either his election would liave been invalid, or ho would have fijid to vacate his post at tlie Techni­ cal School. - — —

CLITHEROE CORPORATION. On Wednesday, before His Honour Judge Cov­


entry, John Carter, Thirty Acre Farm, Mytton, sued the Corporation of Clitheroe for the sum of XlO which was alleged to be the amount of damage done tlirough an accident that happened on the 3rd >


Mr" Weeks appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr.


Lancaster for tho Corporation. Tlio Plaintiff stated that on tlie above-niontioned


date ho was returning homo with a cart, and a mare about three years old. .lust after leaving Mr. Houlker's shop in Bawrtbinds, he saw the road roller coming round the bend a t the bottom of the incline loading to Low Moor. There was no man walking in front of the engine, hut the man wlie should have been so doing was alongside the roller, talking to the driver. Plaintiff put up his hand twice, but no notice was taken of him. Piai.itiff had a brake on Ids cart, wldch lie put half_ on, previous to putting'up his hand-the first time. Plaintiff shouted " Hello 1 are you going to stop?" and the engine eventually stopped opposite the west end of "King’s Anns, The horse was restless and backed about a yard or two, but plaintiff quietened her as beat he could. Ho then left the horse’s head to see if the brake was all right, because he thought it was prudent to have the brake fast on. Following this the horse dashed off a t a furious rate and plaintiff was jammed against the wall. He was also dragged part way down the wall side, and in order to save his life he dived’ under one of the shafts a t tlie back of ttio horse, and one of the wheels went over his leg. During this time plaintiff had called for assistance, but none came and he pickeil himself up and ran after his horse which he found about three-quarters of a mile farther down the road.’ After begot home, Dr. Smitliies was sent for, and tliis gentleman attended him for nearly a fortnight. Altogether he was four or five weeks before he was right. During haytime which followetl plaintiff was not in a position to do his usual work and he had to get a man for three weeks whom he paid somewhere about XI per week in addition to his meat. The doctor’s bill amounted to 29s. and the horse got strained with the occurrence On the 9th of June two men came to look a t it, and as a result of tlie strain plaintiff lost the work ;of the horse for eleven weeks. He assessed the damages a t £10 in alb made any complaints to'him. Cross-examined, the horse was broken in, in


January of this year. He had not asked the driver ot tho road roller to let off steam for the purpose of getting the lioree used to this on a pre­ vious occasion. 'Plaintiff said that the horse liad passed the roller several times before. Dr. Smitliiesspoko to having attended the plain­


and Tiles. Holton testified to the horse being very quiet. For the defence Mr. Lancaster contended lliat


tiff whom he advised to take a rest. George Richmond, of Chaigley, and -Thomas


. Frank Bennett, engine driver for the Corpora- tion,eaid ho was in charge of the engine on tho day in question. Witness saw his flagman who was .30 or 40 yards from the engine, put uji his hand and witness stopped. Plaintiff came out of Houlkcr’s shop, and ho too put up liis hand. Plaintiff put his brake slightly on, and then came forward leading Iiis liorse. He never asked the flagman for any assistance. Afterwards, plaintiff left hold of the horse’s licad and slidut^ out for it to stop. Instead of this, however, tlie liorse bolted and plaintiff Iieid on until he dropped. Nobody liad the sliglitcst chance of assisting him.
