And now does brother Scott pretend to say that an eror Hi footing up the returns of an election, reversing the true result, would give the per son thus counted in his rig'it to the office?

On Friday last the alliancf met at the academy to take into consideration the action of the Cove Croek sub-alliance in regard to putting out a county alliance ticket. It was decided, by a large ma joritythat no ticket would be nominated. We had the pleasure of an interview with many of the alliance-men on the day of the meeting and they were with one accord opposed to the movement to put out ticket. The alliance of this county are composed of some of the most influential and level headed men we have. When they meet together for consultation, on important affairs they are most sure to come to the proper conclu sions. We wish the alliance well in all their laudible undertak ings, believing as wedo, that they mean well. In shaping National politics, we hope they will have the influence to breake down the robber tariff, that is now eating up the substance of the farmer and all other laborers. A county ticket is oo small a matter to engage the attention of men who Ii a ve taken upon themselves the great task of reforming National politics. We sin cerely hope they wili succeed in the end, and send enough men to Congress who will have the manhood to vote down legislation inimical to the interest of the farmer and laborer. The Democrats of the south have fought lor these reforms since the war. Cleveland the only! iKmium r.itic President Miivj "I.inviil Spting ChicAvns.'! the war, urged this reform in 'This entertainment wa j;ot-! his iiM-ssag' to.

Commissioner's Coi ht, Am. 18th, 1800. It is or.lced by the Hoard of Commissioners that there shall be an entire new regis tration of the qualified vo ters of the county for tho reg ulnr Nov. election, 181)0, in accordance with chapter 287 of the Acts of 1885), and that the Shff. bo instructed to summons the following nam ed persons as registrars and that, the said summons beex ecuted on or before Aug. the 23, 1800: IMowing Rock.

It is further ordered that tho above named registrars be instructed to post three notices in each township o said new registration at once and that they be refered to chap. 287 ot tho laivs of 18 89 for full instructions. Shff. Haves notified to sret up 3000 additional on his countv and school tax bond at September meeting, for the reason that there is a lar ger special tax by $1000 for this year, and two ot his Ra rities, S. H. Hanner and Wm. H. Caloway have asked to be released before the tax books are let out. Lixville Letter. Iuiday, Aug. 13. "A num ber of our correspondents are silent this week," quoth tho Democrat of yesterday I did not write to you last week because I thought vou would be over loaded with a description of the reunion; not but that I had noth ing to say. So some of my news will be rather old. We had a couple of trage dies and something in the dramatic line, l'erhans I had better let the tragic pass into forgetfulness as soon as possible: the dramatic may well enough be mentioned. The Linville Dramatic Com pany gave a light and laugh able exhibition of its talents by way of tableaux, in the hall of the annex to the Hotel Boyer, the other night. The "Babes in the Woods" was well rendered, after w hich the tableaux of "OliverTwist begging for more," was giv en; "I he b our Seasons," and! also "Lae Soinnnmbnln, "I which was well represented,) 'A Hunch of Poppies," and.ing the company's barn, f our t-it iz.-us T. vr keit all in all it wasa vet v editable affair. j Th march of improvement in iromir on in our voting ; his own use. on the corner ofi North Iredell am Second! 1. :. ... 1 i f i 1 1 f .-1 f . w nt fine -1 1 1 r. t i Mll.flS.

He is a short-hand re porter and operator on a typo-writing machine. Ho is employed by the Linville Improvement. Co. Mr. Lynn Hahn, of Cran berry, has been here, and ex hibited on our avenues, a span of well-matched, iron gray stallions, for which he asks $."00 apiece. Later he drove over in a gig, an extra nice young gelding, which, I think, is destined to make his mark as a trotter. Tho way he sped over Linville and Mitchell evonuos demon strated that his ability is great, and as he grows older he will trot faster. I saw a sign on which was inscribed the legend, "George Khyfedd Foulke, Heal Es tate," which means that he is a real estate broker or ag ent. On another was inscrib ed "Fairbank's Standard Scales " And now the ma son and carpenter are erect ing the foundation and super-structure for scales which will weigh five tons. These scales are manufactured in St. Johnsburg, CaledoT.ia county, Vermont, where the celebrated scales of the fami ly of Fairbanks have been made for the past sixty years. The beginning was small, bin the present growth of the concern is enormous, and has made the family an immense fortune. Next and last, a sign in front of Dr. C. Teal's bears the legend of "Drug Store." These three signs, I believe, are the first exhibit ed in our town; therefore I make mention of them.
