' We are glad to see that some of our citizens are taking enough interest in the welfare • of our town to circulate a peti tion to have the cows kept off our streets. The stock law which we enjoy at present, is only half of what is needed. Cows running at large in the tow i o e a great source of nui sance and filth than hogs. It was only yesterday that we heard one of our prominent cit izens say that his garden this year had been completely ruined by some body's old jumping cow that broke down his fence and played havoc with his veg etables. The barbed wire fast ened above the low pailings all over town tells an elegant story of past damage; Most of us know what it is to awake in the middle of the night to the real ization of that pleasant fact that there is a cow in your favorite vegetable patch, or in your flower garden. That means get up and run it out. All these nuisances can be easily avoided by a law preventing the run ning at large of any animals in the town, and we hope that the commissioners when they re ceive this petition will at once act upon it. There is much danger to small children from viscious cows, and we trust this like all other nuisances will be abated at the next meeting of the Town Board. The Raleigh Post of Friday says: Former Congressman Fowler, now contesting the election of Hon. C. R« Thomas, or his counsel, have wasted much time and paper in the preparation of the case for the House. Had they have simply said, according to the returns of election,. Mr. Thomas was elected; but by throwing out returns of two or three counties which we suggest, and a few townships in others, we are confident Mr. Fowler would have a majority, they would have stated their case as effec tively as lias been done. For instance, there is no pre tense made by Mr. Fowler ind his counsel that fraud or irreg ularity occurred in but two precincts of Craven county, but if only those precincts are thrown out, and the remainder of the returns of the county are admitted, Mr. Thomas will still have a majority; so. to estab lish Mr. Fowler's claim, be cause of the alleged frauds in the two precincts, the vote of the whole county should be eliminated it is urged. Upon such flimsy pretext does the ex-Congressman attempt to sus tain jiis pretentions to the seat now filled by Mr. Thomas. Mv. Fowler was not elected and he knows it. Very many Republicans of the district openly opposed and worked against him, while Mr. Thomas had the earnest and active sup port of all the Democrats. The negroes of Craven, under the leadership of the influential Republicans, either supported Mr. Thomas or refused to vote for Mr. Fowler. - j JDeath.

The town officers, we are glad to see. are making progress in their efforts to have clean streets, clean lots, and clean homes all over the place. This is right, and this is true progress. But it is needful to go a little further, and have or dinances that will effectually, restrict the roaming at large of all kinds of stock in our midst and especially on the side walks, or about the streets at any time, either of the day or night. If we come truly to this great and all of the people assist the Board of Com missioners by their own ob servance of the said ordinances, •then we may be said to be real ly making progress in our de lightful and thriving little city.
