Airy livery Firm IXasoJLjre a Dronsht BeComlns Serious- Per- H!6rroondenee4)f tThe ObrVer: f:' r. i Loulsburg. Oct, 15. There are many rumors afloat as to proposed dlssolU' .; tioiu and changes in buaineaa houses here between now and January 1st, These rumors, though denied will not down, and If they are true a revolution in business circles -will occur and Im mense surprises will be the order of the day. Apropos the reported dissolutions of some of our most prominent busi ness concerns. It is reported that one of .Loulsburg'8 foremoiK young men of ample capital, will open another bank here, and this reminds me that Mr. w. J. Byerly, cashier of The Farmers and Merchants' Bank, will remove with his family to Mt. Airy on January 1st, where he Is one-half owner In a bank there. This news is received with ex treme regret by our people, (p-a Mr. Byerly, who about ten years (a came . to this point from Lexington, With the highest recommendations to accept position as bookkeeper in the bank here, has by ' his energy and business capucity succeeded to the position of ashler, and under his direction the bust ness of the- bank has steadily grown until it is now in such prosperous con ditlon that the stock commands & heavy premium, and not a dollar of it is for sale. Louisburg regrets to lose Mr. Byerly and his good lady (formerly Miss Leonard, of Lexington), as they are highly esteemed here and will be great ly missed in social and church circles. Mr. R. B. White, of Frankllnton, will speak at a meeting for men at the Y. M. C. A. rooms to-morrow (Sunday) afternoon. Mn White is county super intendent of public Instruction und rep resented this district in the last Legis lature very ably, and his address to morrow will be well worth hearing, The executive committee evidently thinks old Franklin safe, as there has been a dearth of campaign orators so far. It is noted with pleasure" that Sen ator Overman will speak here on the 21frt Inst., on the issues of the campaign and eur friends, the enemy, havf billed Mr. I. M. Meekina. of Elizabeth City for the. 18th inst. He Is reputed to be one of the ablest of the Republican spellbinders and the leaders here are counting on great things as the result of his visit. The series of meetings at the Metho dist church has closed and while the .number of conversions was not large many backsliders were reclaimed and the church revived. Rev. L. S. Massey labored faithfully and earnestly, preaching uble sermons throughout the entire services. A night policeman has been appoint ed here in the person o Mr. Claude Tucker. Thl was done nt a called meeting of the board of aldermen and is a much needed addition to our po lice force. Cotton farmers hereabouts are warm over the recnt decline of cotton and the buyers are being "cussed" in pro portion. 10 cents is the figure demand ed, nnd many of them swear that they will hold it for that price, though the heavens fall. The many friends of Mrs. T. C. Har rison, of Weldon, formerly Miss Frances Green, of this county, note with pleas ure that she is one of the heirs to a large fortune in Xew York. She Is a relative, on her father's side, of Andrew Hartsfteld, who was owtier of property in New York, leased for 99 years. The lease has now expired and the heirs will come into possession of Immensely valuable property, right In the heart of New York citv. Messrs. Hayes & Fuller, old livery tneu, and well known to the traveling I'uuiic, announce, a dissolution In the very near future. Mr. Hayes, It Is learned, will conduct n livery business and Mr, Fuller will run a sales stable, The arought In .this section Is assum ing serious proportions.

'.The speaker further declared that this tariff was followed by the formation of trusts which prevent competition among the 'nanufacturers, and in this way the ex cessive train rates operate beneficially to the manufacturers and detrimentally to the consumers. Mr, Armfleld made i splendid speech and delivered it well. He was followed ty Mr, Page, who briefly discussed State issues, and after showing that It is an unpardonable jrime for a North Caroliria Republican to be a decent man In his politics, for proof of which he cited cases of Hon.

Of Theodore Hoosevelt, as compared to that of Judge Porker. The speaker said that he re garded Theodore Roosevelt as an hon ;st man. but his make-Ud was such that he was a dangerous man; that his Jhni'HCterlstlcS were such that he hnd jetter have remained a cowboy. He aid that Mr. Roosevelt had violated bot wth the law and the Constitution, and . , , , n.; v,. , h. md clearly shown by his acts since he had been accidental President that he .vas not the man for the Amerlan peo ple to make their president by their ,-otes, and that" he firmly believed that he result on the' 9th of November vould show that they had not done so. vir. Page cited , the different acts of Mr. Roosevelt and gave quotations from his books as bearing but his assertions ii regard 'to his. peculiar make-up. -vhlch as he contended made him such a dangerous .rnan for the Presidency.
