Mr. Bryan is to deliver a Fourth ofjjuly oration 111 London, and after that we may fiud even "King Hd*' on the bawl wagon. Nowadays we arc told that everything is "13." That, of course does not apply to the young woman who is positively and j>er manently 16. It is suggested that the muck rakers may "find something wrong with the breweries.''

King's New Life Pills the best sad gentlest regulators of Stomach and Bowels Guaranteed NOW IS THE TIME TO DO IT. At this season of the year is a good ( ti»e to improve streets and public roads. A little work done " now on the streets of Williamston «, would last a long time. For in stance. those streets where water stands after a rain until it is ab sorbed by the earth, could he graded and so improve them that tbe water would drain off immedi ately. This would be very little 1 expense though a wonderful im -1 provement if done before the win ter season. i PEOPLE OF WILLIAMSTON SHOULD HAVE THE » riONEV. d In another column ol this Issue will he found a timely article, writ j ten by Mr. S. J. Kverett, which should receive the serious consid r eration of every citizen of WU ' liamston. He tells us that with tbe small expenditure of S2OO on " better equipment of our fire fight ( ing apparatus will save to the peo ple of this town y> per cent, on the present fire insurance rate. g, Is this not worth the consider e ation of the Board of Commission ' ers and of all citizens? us see. Figuring from the taxable prop erty of the town a saving of 30 pet u cent would amount to about $750 t annually. It will take an expend iture of £2OO to place the town in the third class instead of being 1 fourth class, as It is now, which I brings about the saving of dollars, t Take the S2OO expended in further equipment from the $750, it leaves #5V> saved to our people the first ' year After the first year of course tbe whole amount of $730 saved annually goes into the pockets of tbe citi/ens of Williamston instead of the |>ockcts of the insurance companies as heretofore. Ol course this is a matter that ' has just simply lieen overlooked. I Since the ever-alert Mr. Kverett has called attention to it, there is no doubt in our mind but the com missioners will at once take steps to purchase the necessary hose and dig the one or two needed street wells, which will accordance with the requirements of thc Sotitli lvastern Tariff Association*. WHY NOT A NUISANCE BY , HAY ? Why allow cattle to run at large I on the streets of Williamston at any time, day or night? Some new ordinances recently adopted by the commissioners aud now printed, a clause in the ordi nance relative to cattle running at large on the streets, reads as fol lons "All cattle, one year old or over, running at large in town l>ct\vcen the hours of 8 o'clock at night un til 7 o'clock in the morning is r hereby declared a nuisance to the citizens of said town " The reading of the above is somewhat amusing. It is very good as far as it goes, but docs not go tar enough. If cattle running at large in town is not a nuisance both day and night we would like to have the Board tell us the reason why. Last Saturday, late in the after noon, a certain stranger in town was standing on a street corner talking to another gentleman, and just across the street three cows appeared 011 the sceuC It seemed ' that one of the cows wished to at tract the attention of the stranger, and she did. by bellowing with a voice equal to a fog horn The stranger looked startled and ex -1 claimed "Look! Look!! Cows 1 loomc '*' The other gentlam, who 1 was accustomed to such scenes and c bellows, said, "That's nothing, they run on the streets all the time here." The stranger said, "Well, I I am surprised." A few moments liefore this oc curred the stranger in question was 1 heaping compliments upon Wil f liamston, but tbe conversation was changed alter the above descrided scene. It may be imagined what his impression was of a town tnrnr»l into a cow pasture. Williamston is too much of a little city, too progressive and wide-awake to longer tolerate cattle running at large at any time. Why not make a clean sweep of the thing and pro hibit them running at large by day as well as at night? SELF-SUPPORTING STUDENTS. Supply of This CI Ma of Later al Vale Often Exceeds Um Demand.
