It is & conceded fact that we have one of the best educational plants nearing completion in Western North Carolina, and )arge dormitories will be erec ted during the summer for the aocomtnodation of the rapidly increasing crowds that gather here to attend ferhooi. We now have a new tourt house, that, itssisecon feidered, cannot he surpassed in the State, and'is indeedan Ornament to the town and Bhould be the pride of eyerv fcitizen within onr borders. We have a bank, comforta bly located in its own quar ters, doing a good business. We have five general' stores; two millineiy establishments hhd one drug Store; all seemithe same from time to io be doing well. We have as good legal and medical abili ty as can be iound anywhere; and we have n paper (excuse us, please) that baa labored unceasingly for the past six teen years for the upbuilding of the town and county, and we are Conceited enough to believe that it has done effec tive service in some ot our public enterprises. But there are other indus tried badly needed here for the purpose of utilizing some of our vast amount of tim ber and other raw mateiiaTs. We need a sash, blind, door find general furniture plant, And we have enough timber in easy touch with Boone to ton it for years. Ife are now buying pick, aie, mattock, and all other kinds of ban dies from the north, to say nothing of wheelbarrows etc that conid be easily manutac tared at home. Ife need a tannery with fl saddle shop in connection,' j&b there is not a plant of the iindf iff the county. There is money it. and we know of 6,uifea number of men who have somo capital that i ney would like to invest in either of the above framed en terprises. Suitable sites in or Dear town can be gotten on eaSry terms. Thiuk about this proposition from a business standpoint, and see if you do not decide that you can real ifce a very handsome divi flenu from tne stock you might take.

To Be sure, we have laid out a oud deaf of work, bat we do not expect to see it all ' doffe at once, Tlie thing is to begin Gtt'the furniture facto ty first, and let the other en ier prises follow. When our S&opfe begin to spend some of their own money in this war. outside capital can be induced to come among us lot investment. Let us be up and doing. n r i ' A Good Suggestion. iff. C.

' The Charleston; "Virginin, and Ohio River Railway was chartered yesterday bj the Secretary of State. 1 he road Is to be constructed from Charleston, S. C, to Norton, Va and to have branches in this State. The length of the road in North Carolina XI) bo approximately 140 miles, and the entire length of the road. Including a branch in to Tennessee, will be 4 40 miles. In this State the road will operate through the counties of Gaston, CleVe- land, Lincoln, Catawba, Burke, Caldwell, Mitchell and Watauga. The total authorized capN tal stock of the company is $2,200,000, and this may be increased to $15,000,000. The .company will commence business with $500,000. The capital stork will be divided into 2,000 shares at t h e par VHlue of $100 each, with the privilege , of increasing time to $150,000 shares of a like par value, but the railway company may commence bus iness when 5,000 shares shall have baen subscribed. The name and place of (he directors of this companyf who shall manage its affairs for the first year are as fol lows: W. C. Ervin, H. L MiN ner and E. P. Tate, all of Morganton, N. C , and Win. T. Hunter, Joseph F. McGow en and Robert Rigney, all of New York city. In our last issue, by a per plexing oversight, we failed to note the meeting ot t h e board of trustees of tlu Ap palacblan Training School or the faculty elected for the Summer Terra. The faeulty is entirely new, except Prof. B. B. Dougherty, and are nicely scattered over the ad- aeeht counties, They are as ollow8: Prof. B. R. Dougher ty Supt. Y. D. Moore, of Caldwell; Supt. A. E. Wolt2, of Lenoir Graded School, Prof. A. Masters, of Mitchell county; Miss Winnie Patton, of Mnrgauton Graded School; Prof. C. M. Dixon, of Ashe county; Prof. J. M. Cheek, of Alleghany county, and Miss Margaret B. Rhea, of John son county, Tenn., will con tinue her work in music and art. The fatuity is a good one and we may exDert an acceptionally line term this summer. It is hoped that ev ery teacher in reach of this great school will avail them selves of the" opportunity to attend at least two Weeks o this term.

Maj, Robhins: The remains of Major Will iam McKindree Robbins were brought to Statesyilltf Thurs day and taken, to tberesi dence bto- Mulberry street. The funeral services were con ducted from the First Pies bytfrian church, this city, yesterday morning at 10 o' clock by the Re7. C. M. Rich ards, assisted by Revs, tt, K. Boyer and J. H. Presley. The remains were attended from the residence to t h e church and from the church to the cemetery by an escort composed of the Sfatesville bar and surviving members of the Reuben Campbell Camp of Confederate Veterans. The interment was in Oakwood. Major Robbins wus87 rears old when ho died. Up to a- bout two years ago be had the appearance ot being a well and a strong man. Since that time his health has been preceptibly declining. Major Robbins was a great and good man, a model citi zen.a uinstian genueman, Sta At an honest lawyer, a profound statesman. He has served his country long and well and many men in the various sec tionsoftbe country will be snddened nt his death. When the war began Ma- or Robbins was elected lieu enant of the Fourth Ala bama Regiment und when it closed he was major ot t h e regiment. He fought through the war from the beginning to the end. After the war he oca ted in Salisbury for the pjactice of law, having been admitted to the bar prior to that time. He was elected by the Democrats a member of he General Assembly of N. C.of 1868 1 and 1870-1. Id 1872 he was elected to Con- gress irom tne oui sevemn m 1 fa al District and served in that capacity during the 43rd, 44th and 45th Congresses. In 1893 he was appointed by Jrfesident Cleveland a member of the Gettysburg Battle Ground Coromif eion, in which position he was re tained by thesucceeding pres identsand was holding the same at the time of h i s death. His death i- a great loss to his Deo Die. among whom he has lived and served so foug, and while bis body rests be neath the sod unseen by us yet his memory is with us still, and his influence for good will live ior genera tions to come. Indeed he is not dead, bat sleepeth. His sDirithas cone home to be with Him in whom he trust ed with the sweet, simple faith of a child. His body is only resting upon the bosom of the earth awaiting the throb of resurrection power, when he shall be raised and stand before Him whom he trusted and whom he served during bis long fife.

This can hi done by eating a n t y food suited to your age ana occupa tion, and when any disorder of the stomach appsars take a dose of Chamberlain's Stomach Sad Liver Tablets to correct it. If you have a weak stomaeb or are troubled with indigestion, you will find these Tab. lets to be nst what yotf need For ale by J. M, Mofetz, There hi music in oil things ; Want to 3a ko It Odious r News and Observer.' : ' If has been the deliberate policy of many Republeans since the passage of t be Watts law to try to make it odious. The program has been for revenue officials and county officers to permit moonshine stilling to go on untouched by those distillers who would help the Republicans in the elections and point to the people who wish temperance and say! "The Watts law is a humbug. Th9re has been no improvement" Here is a fit answer to them in the Wilkes- boro Chronicle: "the union Republican and the other Republican papers keep charging that the Dem solicitors and Judges do not try to enforce the State tern perance laws. This is an un just and false . accusation. This law is enforced with re asonable satisfaction except in Republican counties, and some of tnern are trying to do their duty. The Republi cans ought to look at things as they are instead of in tt blind partisan way. It is the Republicans who fail to en force the Republicans laws in this section."
