..' Rev. Dr. W. W. Bays.
la Teference to the above gentle
man the editor of ' the Statesville
Christian Advocate says : ' ,
v;(Rev. Dr. W, W. Bays; who' was
totmve delivered the annual address
at tl r "Trinity College. On last night,
8P8?kVnnday in SaliaK-r? and held
irv:i :
1 me virauui:-wcvuv
etliodiat
people of that old town were charmed
with his sermon and - want to hear
Elm again. We were glad to meet
the doctor and regret we failed to
hear him preach."
Of Dr. . Bays address at Trinity
College the correspondent of the
Charlotte Chronicle writes :
"This ended this programme, and
President Crowell introduced Rev.
Dr. Bays, of Asheville, who delivered
a le ture on education to the alumni,
which was cheered throughout, and
universally pronounced a great litera
rv treat He spoke of greater svm
pathy j being needed for education,
the adrantages to be derived from it
by ouij country, its benefits upon the
home, the church and humanity. The
address was deep, convincing, and
intermingled with much good wit
and humor no Trinity audience was
ever better pleased with an address."
. Crops in Swain.
Observations of the cropg along
the line of railroad, and informa
tion obtained from the farmers
enable us to speak with some
show'of accuracy regarding1 the
present status of the crops.
Wheat is ripening, in some fields
ready for the cradle, and it is not
good. It was hurt by the winter,
and is thin on the ground ; and
the continued rains in May in
flicted still greater injury. Oats
and rye look better and give bet
ter promise. Corn is small, and
the stand is not good, owing to
the ravages of the cut-worm.
Fruit, by which we mean apples,
is a general failure. Some or
chards are bare of fruit, others in
different localities have not been
much hurt, which we learn is the
case along the Nantahala, where
dense f o'g- interposed as a- blan
ket against the cold, which was
ruinous in more exposed places.
Tobacco has been set out, and
all the fanners agree that it is now
in unusually fine condition. The
acreage is about the same as last
year, and the farmers are careful
not to excel the limit which would
imperil their bread and meat
crops. .
Business is Business.
"Five cents fare for that child,
madam," said a street car conductor
as he opened the door and put his
head in the car. "Very well," she
replyed, feeling in her pocket, "this
is an orphan ckild and I am its
guardian. I must have a receipt for
all moneys paid out and as soon as
you write oni I'll drop a nickle in the
box." He shot the door and leaned
over. : the break in deep thought. i

When the paragraph: re. sting to

Weber, of Now York, moved to
strike them uut, thus forestalling
the committee umeuduueut to the
same purpose. The general debate
which I'oilo ved the ?noli'ij, became
largely on interchange of personal
ities and political sharp shooting.
Mr. Riynor, of M vryland, criticised
Mr Reed's remark :uul m ule Several
(lavs ago ti s iht- effect that it Was
not worth while to ke-p ou lying
on this subject fjiarifl) and protfsti-d
against the indirect assertion-? :hat
the members were liars. The gen
tleman frotn Maine did not seem to
realize i hat a man could try to be
funny without hing insolent, and
and that he could even succeed ia
being a clown without being vu's'ar
and' oft'unsi ve. The gontliinian Mr.
Re'-d) might, b right wii- n he said
thai the:e were no monop--lis in
this country, but he (R-yno ) seri
ously qiiHtiti iiei tbi iiit'grily oi
his motives and proposed to prove
that the reitubliuan ieiders went in
league with the,-e gai .centralizing
weaitn-getting combinations. Mr.
Raynor tiien read a newspaper ar
ticle embracing a circular from Mr.
Foster, president of the Republican
league, calling for aid to repii the
attacks on the protective system,
and the reply of a United iStates
Senator declining to contribute, aud
warning tiie manufacturer that when
the Mills bill reached Senate action
would be taken which would op n
their eyes t the fact th.i: the re
publican p:rty was 110 longer their
humble strva;it and would no lon
ger contribute to a tariff campaign
while the manuf icturer.i gathered
the profits. Mr. Raynor added that'
the fac's set out which had not been
challenged showed a criminal com
bination betwetui the Repub ioa
leaders' and the manufacturers.
That wa- a serious question and it

fit to play the pari of a harlequin in
the political mensgi-rie, aud ho fig
ured in a very poor light bet'ori the
nation as a del phi coracle of the
republican party. Democracy
would force the republicans to pain 1
upon their banner "there is no mo

aud T want u bad. This may be a blnut,
hard, cold. Ttncom promising statement!
bu' it 1 fearfully true, and the truth may
an well be admitted. To be still more
irank want your money, and I warn you
1 am fe-.king stepB to secure it without a
moment's delay. To he candid about it
I will say that at first I was greatly
pnzz'ed to know how I could gain pos
session, but a plan has been devised
which will lead you to give it up cheerfully
and freely becaus 1 you will greatly bene
fit yourself by so doing. Xhe "motive
and th plan are stated briefly as follows:
I '.vwh to convert my present stock into
trash within the next 30 days fur two
reasons, first, I want to take a large
amount of cash 10 market, wheii I go to
ltm haaa my new full stock, as I can by
t.'iis lu.-ans be sure of getting the lowest
market prices. Second, I must dispose
of a large amount of goods to make room
for thi 1 new stock. This very reasonable
but pressing motive has made me deem
it wise to pursue a plan which will con
vert my present stock into cash and do it
at once. Therefore during the next 30
days, every article in my stock of Cloth
Hats, Gents' .Furnishing Goods,
Trunk;! and Valises, will he sold without
ret:ard to profit or marked value, hut at
prires certain to force them from my
shelves, at a great tacsijweh is true, but at
the sa ne time puttiug me in position to
more taan make ;ood the 1 ss by increas
(! facilities for hand ing fall goods- It
in needless to remind thinking people
that, this action on my part will put be

prepared to feed them in firstclass style.
The high quality and low prices of our
goods have become known throughout
Western N. C, and almost everv mail
brings tis orders for goods in our line.;
We have voluntary testimonials from
close buyers saying that on comparing
our prices with Kuoxvilleand Richmond

; QUALITY'
of goods and freights were taken into
consideration. j-
We are giving special attention- to the
RETAIL TRADE
of Asheville and have a large s'ock of
ioodB selected especially for this trade.
I Since writing our last there has been .
an advance in the- price of coflee, haras,
lard and flour. We are still selling at old
prices, except Ariosa Coffee, which we
have advanced to 23 cts. We buy this
coffee direct and can guarantee it to be
