At their meeting Monday night the town commissioners passed an ordinance banishing hogs from the town. The physicians are agreed that they are detrimental to the poblic health. Everything that can be done to lessen the danger of sickness should be done. A writer iu the Burlington News gays of the home paper: "While the local, paper is the property of one individual, it is above all a town institution, and ought to be made a perfect mirror reflecting the industry, energy and pluck of the business men of that locality, as well as a careful record of the happenings of the week. Abroad, a town is judged by the newspa per published in its limits, not by what is said about it in the metro politan press. The moreJoeaF en couragement, the better the papeT becomes, until it is not only the pride of the town but of the State as well." , -IOto.Loaded.

Fattc son, Esq., and Dr. Hill made excellent addresses, em phasizing the" necessity for better educational facilities in our town, and pointing out the, many -ad vantages to accTne from a: thor onghly equipped high; school. To say nothing of the saving in cost and the desirability of educating the boys and young men heie at home, Dr. Hill called attention to the very desirable class of citizens that a first-class school would at tract, to-wit : persons of refinement and culture, who would add large ly to the social and moral elements of the community. People of bad morals and low social standing do not move to communities to secure school advantages. Dr. Hill stated that he had re ceived a letter from the priucipal of a flourishing high school in this State who proposes that, if Max ton will erect and equip the neces sary buildings, ue win move uis school here and being one hun dred SCHOLARS WITH HIM. Just think what that would mean for Maxton ! Those one hundred pu pils would spend as least $200 per year each for board, clothes, tui tion, &c $20,000 annually dis tributed among our people. Well, Maxton is going to erect the building no question about that. Abputf $2,500 of stock has already been subscribed and the balance can and, will be raised. The stockholders meet this (Tues day) tnorniug fit 10 o'clock to or ganize, elect officers, &c. A char- er will at once be secured and the enterprise pushed with all vigor. A location has not yet been def initely agreed upon, but it is likely that the old picnie grounds, in the southern suburbs, will be chosen. It has been decided to place the stock at $10 per share so that per sons of small means can take stock in the building, and the head of every family in this community ought to feel, it his duty to take one or more shares. to drug store, prices.
