Si tiff tile <>| MMiiitjr of 'he Sinilli tif 1<1 tobacco market in 1 H'.IH suc 00m lias marked itk erery stc|>. AYe have had faith in Sinithfield lis a leaf tobacco center from the very beginning. Situated in the midst of one of the very bent belts of tobacco land in Ivistern North Carolina, Smithfic'd was natu rally hound to be a good market, other things being equal. Hut this was not enough to niuke our success secure. Tlie business man of Smithfleld seeing the advantages offered have been very liberal with their means in building warehouses, prizeries, etc. Hut something else was needed to insure success. This need has been met by the cle. er and energetic tobacconists who have cast their lots with us ..nd done all they could for the Smithfleld market. A mong the leaders in this march toward success we place II. L. Skinner and T. S. Kagsdale. Others who have done muck for our success are Will II. Lassiter, C. 15 Paylor, .1. I). Iloyett, E. F. lloyett, A. M. Willingham, It. H. McGuire, <). C. (Iregory, W. II. Long and others Mr. A. 15. Willingham, of the tirin of W. A. Willingham & Co., and Mr. 0. C. Gregory of the American Tobacco Co., ha ve done much this season to maintain the high prices that have attracted so many people here from far and near. Every man on the market has done his part and has made many friends among the farmers who will continue to stand by the Smithfield market and its oblig ing tobacconists. Some people, even in Johnston county, have got the erroneous idea that Smithheld was not doing much this season as a to bacco market. No greater mis take was ever made. The Smith field market has been from the beginning of the season one of the best markets in the State. A'o market in this section has a better record for high prices than our market. To let the readers of The Her ald know some of the successful sales here for the past few days and to encourage them to plant some tobacco next year and join the procession, we publish the following: Mr. J. B. Smith sold a lot of tobacco at the Banner Ware house this week for $392.83, the j average price being 31 cents per pound. Mr. Joseph Lee sold a load for $ 167.3b. Mr. Will A. Smith sold a lot at the same house and received $323 38, anaverageof 32%cents. Messrs. Skinner & Uagsdale sold 1,383 pounds for $313.15. Among some of those who have made good sales at the Iliverside Warehouse we mention the fol lowing: E. S. Rhodes sold 238 pounds for .*113.55. J. G. Smith received $127.76 for 861 pounds. R. A. Whitfield had649pounds which brought $140.97. For 565 pounds W. J. I'rice re ceived $144.04. 11. I). Richardson sold 1,107 for $291.48. The following nice prices have been received on the floor of the Farmer* Warehouse: W. B.Johnson Hold a lot of nice tobacco for f 1 .15. Robert Sanders sold one barn for an average of 2.1 cents per pound. Tuesday the break at the Farmers averaged 1 cents per pound, including scrap. The above are only a few of the | nice prices received on the Smith i field market within the past few I days. We could fill several col umns with [trices that would compare favorably with those! already mentioned. The prices given above [trove two things: First that Smithfield is one of the best markets in the State?none better. Second that it pays to raise tobacco and we hope that more of our farmers will try a few acres next year. It will not do to depend on cotton entirely. Our farmers must do something else to endeavor to raise money. Others make money on tobacco. Why not you? SONE SOUND ADVICE. This bit of sound ad vice is from our esteemed contemporary, the Wilmington Messenger: "Politicians are being inter viewed as to the best way for Democrats to win. The Messen ger holds that the mi re and propel* way is for Democrats to be Dem ocrats, to stop quarrelling, to cease to scramble for office, to remain faithful to fundamental j principles, 'to be what you seem,' and to antagonize the corrupt,! evil, ruinous, dangerous Repub-1 lican party at every point, at every turn, all the year round, and in all years, off-years in cluded." Dissensions and quarrelliags within the party ranks is a sui ? 1 ? * ? I cidal policy, and the point made by the Messenger is well taken. If some of our brethren of the press j would cease their quarrellings J and insinuations and work all the time for the success of party principles they would not only render service to the party they claim to represent, but would also win the gratitude of their readers.
