Cotton is selling to-day at to 52f. And still the hogs remain on the streets. Old Christmas was observed by few people in.this section. Phint some tobacco and some cotton and make plenty of co-rn and. feed. L Dunn now has no cotton weigher. Each buyer weighs his own cotton. 1 Good roads carry trade to a to wn. The roads to Dunn need improvement. Mr. W. D. Thornton has commenced the erection of a cot tage' in the eastern part of the town. -Elder J. T. Coats will preach at the Primitive church next Saturday and Sunday. WANTED Lane & Gal braith want 1,000 fat young cattle from 3 to G years old. Highest prices -paid at their sale stables. Call or. send to this office for legal blanks. We can furnish almost any blank used. We sell th:-m only for cash. Read the new "ad" in this issue of Mr. II. M. Pearsall's beef market. He runs an up to-date market. - The snow last week on the sources of the Cape Fear ere ated quite a swell in the river. At Ureensboro tno snow was several inches thick. We now have at our stables a car load of fine Tennessee horses and mules. They are acclimated and will stand work better than any stock on this m arkct . See us before you buy . Lanp: & Galbraitii. We are informed that quite 'a number of wild geeso have been seen on the Cane Fear in this county this winter. Occa sionally a hunter gets a shot at them and kills one. ; Spirits of turpentine is on a boom now. The Wilmington markets quote it at 43 to 43 cents per gallon. If the price stays up our turpentine farmers iwill make good money this year. -Regular monthly services were'held at the Baptist church Sunday morning and night, by the pastor, Rev. L. R. Carroll, and two excellent sermons were delivered. The boys are making fine progress with the Band, and the prospects now are that we will have one among the first bands in the State. It is the pride of Dunn. i We have just printed some neat envelopes for McKay Bros. & Skinner, in which they will put an ounce of the best tobac- jco seed to be given free of cost to those who call at their store. These young men are full, of right. Call on them. r- A tobacco warehouse here and a good tobacco market will 'give employment to quite a jiuimber of men and boys and jjbring to us several citizens, beside putting money into cir- n 1 i 1 1 1- n f Ann r P Inllnof jjseasons of the year. The to Ibacco industry has brought life and viuor to some of the noih- 3ori-mr towns. It will do the unc for us. By mistake the advertise ment of McKay Bros. ife Skin nier in this issue was omitted in Ihist week's issue. These young gentlemen have only been in pmsmess for a short time and Kve are - pleased to "learn -that Hheir business is exceeding their expectations and are pleased witli the patronage they are receiving. They carry a splen did line of drus etc. We have decided not to work for glory during 1809. We tried it in 1898 and came near starving its a humbug in a print shop; For the benefit of some of our readers we take this method of announcing that wejdiall strike several names from our subscription list un less paid in a, few weeks. Our business calls for money every day in the year. We find more than $200 due on subscription at this postoffice alone. If you read The Union .during 1899 rvou must pay for it. The board of education ap portioned the school funds of the county last week. The amount apportioned to each child is eighty-two cents. We will endeavor to get the amount apportioned to each township for our, nexf. issue. ' We learn that the county commissioners of Sampson re fused to grant license to retail liquors in that county at their January meeting. "This puts Sampson on .the dry list. . V t t T "v t m m uur uevir is mourning the loss of "Dewey," who has strayed to parts- unknown, but has hardly reached 4he far off land of Manila yet. "Dewey" is a pet pup, wnicn otten ac companies our "Devil" out on hunting expeditions. Rev. F. A. Bishop, Pre siding Elder of this district, occupied the pulpit at the Methodist church Sunday morn ing, and preached one among the ablest sermons ever preach ed in Dunn.. His subject was "the thorn in the flesh." See the new advertisements in this issue of J. W. Gregory. He is hustling off his winter stock. Mr. W. H. Duncan, formerly of Clinton, has accept ed a position as salesman for this year with him and will be pleased to have his friends call on him. Work has commenced on the rebuilding of the furniture factory. The Newberry Bros. have commenced work ,011 the building of one also. Theirs will be located just across the railroad from where the old one 1 was and where the new one will be built. The Newberry Bros. will operate both Probably the-, longest train that has ever passed here over this road, passed Monday. It was a freight train going south and was drawn by two large engines'. There were sixty-four cars with the caboose attached to them. Engines and caboose were fully three-eighths of a mile apart. Rev. P. L. Herman and his family have moved to the house just across the street from the Baptist church recent ly vacated by Mr. Henry Brew- eiv Mr. J. u. uowell and wile occupy the house vacated by Mr. Herman. Messrs, Lane & Galbraith. our leading stock dealers, re ceived a car load of Tennessee mules a few days ago. You can buy a mule from them very cheap for cash or on easy terms. The Tennessee stock are said to be the best for this climate. They are tough and of a suit able size. If you are thinking of buying we would reccom- mend the Tennessee mule. We are sad to, announce the death of Mr. Duncan Faucett, which sad event occurred last night at his home near Legal, this county. He died of con sumption. He was well known throughout the county and our readers, many of them, will read these lines with regret. We extend our sympathy to the bereaved. We call special attention to the new and attractive adver tisement of Messrs W. H. Lane & Co., in this issue. This firm has seen the effect of printer's ink in 1898, and -will use it more extensively in 1899. They carry a well selected stock of heavy and fancy groceries, dry goods and general merchandise. The' also handle country pro duce. They enjoy the confidence of a large number of customers and extend a hearty welcome to all to visit their store and ex amine their goods and get prices before buying, Would not our merchants and business men find it to their interests to hold a meet ing and raise some money to put the roads leading to Dunn in better condition. The road at Mingo swamp gets almost impassable in tlve spring and many farmers in Sampson go to other places to trade (when this is their nearest market) on account of this one place in the road. A few dollars properly spent would put the road there in fair condition and make it much easier to carry a load over. We know of one mer chant who will give $10. How many others"" will come in and help? A Sure Thing fok You. A transaction in which you cannot lose a sure thing.

The resignation was made quietly and few knew it until Friday. Dr. Withers the clerk, in whom power lay to appoint his successor, ap pointed Mr. H. C. McNeill to succeed him, and he was to take charge Monday, but: the law authorizing a weigher Mr. McLean had abolished on Thursday, not knowing that the resignation of Mr. Jackson had been made and Mr. Mc Neill had been appointed to succeed him. It is due Mr. Jackson to say that we have heard no dissatis faction at his weighing andohat he did the best he could? Mr. McNeill would have made a splendid officer and we think would have been satisfactory to all concerned. Bin Q J r Who brought Box Lye from 10 cents per box to 5 cents? W. H. LANE & CO.
