During the week heavy sales of real estate were made in the South to Northern and Western colonization enterprises; the tide of population moving this way is steadilv increasing; capital will follow the people, and soon there wul be a wonderful advance in industrial interests, in railroad construction, in city growth and in land values in every part of the South where the local people do their full share in making known the attractions and re sources for their locality. Any section w hich fails to share in this prosperity will have only its own people to blame. Are you doing your full share or are you waiting for others to do it for youi" The town, the county or the uroperty owner wishing to reach the people of the "N orth and West must hustle for priority and recognition. We must first make our town attractive and truly progressive before we can reasonably expect desirable growth from outside. Goldsboro is advancing along all lines of J industrial develop pient. ' Let .us keep this fact prominent. The First in North Carolina -Some Interesting Historic Facts About Salem, N. C Special Argus correspondent In a recent issue of the Argus I wrote a brief outline of the his tory and phenomenal growth of Winston and promised to tell your readers in my next letter some thing about tbe old town of Salem. Winston and Salem are separ ated by a street; nevertheless, they are two distinct places. Winston has its own mayor, board of aldermen, policemen, water works, fire department and post office. Salem, too, has its own mayor, board of aldermen, polire men, water works, tire depart ment and post-office. This section was settled by United Brethren, or Moravians. Early iu October, 1753, twelve of these Brethren started from a settlement in Pennsylvania to search out a new home. With a four-horse wagon, loaded with supplies, twelve hardy men drove boldly into the wilderness and traveled towards the South. The diary, which still exists, tells of the many dangers and difficulties they met with on their journey. On Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock, November 17th, 1753, the travelers reached a spot whose fertility and beauty so at tracted theru that they deter mined oo make it their home. Near the banks of the clear stream which gracefully winds through the fertile valley, they found the doserted hut of some brave hunter, who had been killed by the Indians, or who had gone, perhaps, still further into the solitude of the great wilder Less. In this hut they deter mined to stay until the could build a larger one. That night they held a Love Feast a religious exercise still practiced among ihe Moravians. At this Love Feast they partook of cake and coffee, which are always used on these occasions. When they were ready to go to sleep, they found the hut large enough for only eleven men to sleep on the floor. They, there fore, swung a hammock lor the twelfth man. During the night they were greatly annoyed by t he howling of the wolves around the cabin. Sunday was spent in devotional exercises. Monday they begaa to cut down trees, and in a few weeks they cleared three acres of land and sowed some wneat, wnicn they naa brought with them. About two years afterwards, these twelye Brethren were joined by some others from the Pennsylvania settlement. The following spring, a number of families came. But their troubles were not at an end. An Indian war btoke out and all of the settlers moved into the church, which was inclosed with a strong, high fence, built of logs. During the day, the men worked only a short dis tance from the stockade; at night, a close watch was kept and the bell on the little church was rung every half-hour. After tbe war was over, it was learned from some of the Indians, who ' had been converted, that a number of times massacres had been planned, but on each occasion, just as the Indians were stealth ily advancing in the darkness to attack the little fort, the bell would ring, and, thinking that the Great Spirit had warned the white men, chey decided it would be useless to make the attack. On the church, that same old bell, whose strong, clear notes stayed the uplifted tomahawk of the savage Indian, in notes strong,, clear, and sweet, every Sunday calls to worship from peaceful homes the grand-children of the brave men who founded the little town, which they named Bethalara." The name was f afterwards changed to Old Town, which it still bears. This was the $rst Moravian settlement in North Carolina. Old Town is four miles west of Salem, which was founded in 1766 by other Moravians. Salem is in direct contrast with Winston. While Saiem contains many elegant residences, large factories, and the famous Salem Female Academy, still there are so many old buildings of Dutch architecture that the place pos sesses a picturesqueness and a quaiutness which is peculiarly attractive. One of the most interesting places in Salem is the beautiful Moravian cemetery. Only Mora vians are buried there. There are no monuments. Each grave has a flat stone on top. The dead are buried without regard to family. The married men are buried in one part of the ceme tery, single men iu another part, and separate lots are set apart respectively for young single wouieu, old single women, mar ried women, buys and girls. Easter is always looked for ward to with great interest by the people of Winston-Salem. Easter Sunday morning, before the rising of the sun. a throng of people gathers in front of the old Salem Moravian church. Whatever the Moravians do, is done in decency and in order On Easter Sunday a guard is placed at the entrances of the cemetery, and no one is allowed to enter except in the procession or until the procession has en tered. A brass band heads the pro CPssion; behind the band, the Moravian Bishop, the teachers and Sunday-school children of the Moravian church, followed by the young ladies of Salem Female Academy; then another brass band at the head of the battalion of cadets of Davis' Military School, followed by members of the congregation and the visitors. A little while before sunrise, at the wora of command, music bursts forth from the band lead ing the column, and the march to the City of the Dead begins The leading band plays a few notes, which are taken up by the band in the middle of the proces sion, and the refrain is caught by the other bands, and toe beau tiful music continues throughout the march. As a visitor stands and views the column, as it passes along the beautiful cemetery avenne, there is stamped upon his memory a picture which will always abide with him. The snow-white gravel walk, bordered with grass of the richest green, the arch-way cf giant, cedars, among whose branches for .lore than a hun- dred years the birds have built their nests, innocent little Sunday-school children, the sweet, happy laces of the pretty girls of Salem Female Academy, the soldierly bearing of the manly looking cadets of Davis' Military School, and a great crowd of other people of all classes in hol iday attire form a scene upon which memory loves to linger. After arriving at the ceme tery, the procession is foimed in a hollow square, the multitude stands silent, and just as the first rays of the sun appear over the hills, the melodious voice of the great and good Bishop Rond thaler breaks the solemn silence: "But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the first fruits of them that slept." Amid such solemn surround ings, how these thrilling words stir to the very depths our hearts, and more than ever be fore do we realize the joy, the comfort, the solemnity and sweetness of Easter morning.

A RTeat many of them do not know that this is abso lutely unnecessary. Many a woman has been thrown into a daBfreroTis state of ner vous excitement by the mere suggestion of such treatment. Many women lie to the doctor. That sounds hard, but it is un doubtedly true. They know that if they admit certain symptoms that the doctor will inevitably insist on an "examination." They do not give him all the facts in the case, and so he works in the dark. Quite often the doctor is too busy and too hurried to make the necessary effort to obtain the fects. He frequently treats symptoms for what they appear to be on the surface, when the real cause and the real sickness is deeper and more dangerous. A derangement of the distinctly feminine organs will derange the whole body. The woman herself my not know exactly what is the matter with her, but whenever she is sick, there are two things she should look out for first. One is what is called "female weakness;" the other is constipation, for these two things frequently go together. Dr. Pierce's Fa vorite Prescription is designed for the cure of diseases and disorders of women, and it does cure them. It has been performing its healing missic for 30 year9, and tens of thousands of women have been made happy by it. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are for constipation, and contingent ills. Druggists sell them, but sometimes in well meaning ignorance, they will try to sell you some thing else. There is nothing "just the same " or "just as good." The druggist who tells you there is, is either mistaken or dishonest.

It vill surprise many people to know thae the per capita value of the agricultural products of the South is greater than that of any part cf the country. The federal Bureau of Statistics has recently completed rpports for the year 1894 which shows that the twelve leading crops of the South for that year, were worth $737,408,143, while the twelve most important crops in all the rest of the country combined were worth only $1,100,965,674. The per capita value of tnese crops was $33 for the South and only $29 for the rest of the coun try. Cotton is considered the leading Southern product, but tbe corn crop of the South is more valuable. Our cotton crop of 1894 was worth $250,000,000, but our corn crop was worth $290,014,975, and all the corn grown in all the rest of the coun try was worth only $264,704,181. The South raised nearly $20,0Q0, 000 worth of tobacco against $7,766,360 worth in the rest of the country. Our sugar crop was worth $15,000,000, and our rice $2,500,000. The Houston Post, comment ing on this report, makes an ex cellent point when it says: A great advance is possible in the hay crop, where we are wo fnlly behind, and yet the section is most admirably adapted to its cultivation. "With hay and corn we ought to furnish the world with meat products, with horses and mules. With, our cotton we ought to- become the " greatest manufacturing section of the world, supplemented by our iron ores and coal. In ten or twenty years it is more than probable that these distinctions will be r-ealiied-(ha,t; ..we :will not; only produce moreinj gross than the balance' of IhtTtiatioh, J but" 'will work up our raw materials'. The mB' who casts:, his linerJatihe,1 South at this lime can make no mistake h is choosing the richest natural, and in everj way most promising section of the world." In' 1894 thfi South produced only $65,614,213 worth of hay against $402,968,390 for the rest of the country. The hay crop of last year in the South was much greater and that of this year will be larger still, but we do not yet raist, enough bar. ITALY'S DARK DAYS. I Mrs- Jonnson's onu Price Dark days have fallen upon Italy. She is in the midst of a momentous crisis, the oitcome of which no one can safe!y pre dict. The last disaster to Italian arms in Abyssinia is the most crushing that au y European na tion has suffered in years, and that disaster grows as the details are allowed, to leak out. The Ke puuiican and Radical elements at home have seized upon the oc casion to make riotous demon strations of disapproval of the government's policy, in some of the cities a coudition of affairs little short of anarchical obtains; the ministry has resigned, and it may not be gojug tjo far to say that even the dynasty is in dan ger. " And the most ciscouraging of the situation the phase that militates most strongly against the probabilities of dire and far reacmug consequences being avoided is that it threatens to crush and utterly undo the ablest, the cleanest, and hitherto the most influential public man in the kingdom. OrispL has up to this time been the main-say of Italy in the hour of peril. He has done more than any other man to raise his country to the position of a great power, cause ner friendship to be coveted by other nations, and prevent her from being posted a; absolutely bankrupt. More than once he has been called to the helm in the height of a storm that was straining the ship of State to the utmost point of its resistance, and in each instance he has brought his charge through safe ly. But in this case it is he who has sent the ship upon the breakers, and on his shoulders is placed the responsibility of the Abyssinian disaster and its train of other woes. In steering Ifaly away from Scyila, Crispi has brought her face to face with Charybdis. When he last came into -power Italy was again in a state of tur moil.

P-JOHNSON. & & j Under Opera House, Coidsboro, N. C. A STRANGE I'KOCIiiOIlING. On Thursday evening of this week the Police committee of the Board of Aldermen, consisting of Aldermen N. O'Berry, Henry Lee and W. T. Hollo well, held a meeting to try the case of Police man Speight, who was reported to them as being guilty of cou duct and language unbecoming an officer. A number of reput able witnesses testified before the committee as to the charges, and upon their cumulative testi rnony, ihe committee unanimous ly decided co suspend Speight for fifteen days. This committee, as others, is appoiuted by the Mayor from the Board of Alder men, and it is their province to supervise the police force; and in pursuance of this duty they have from time to time, in their oisfretion, upon charges pre ferred, suspeuded policemen for varying periods. The above named committee are men of in telligence aud characier, above reproach, aud beyond the sus picion o prejudice, and are not presumed to act hastily iu form ing conclusions or be gunty oi such as to render it vital that tbe ! injustice ia making decisions; therefore, it is to be presumed public mind should be directed from internal allairs. Erythrea, the Italian territory on the Red Sea littoral, and which is the de velopment of a Colonial venture dating back to 1S70, afforded the only medium through which to accomplish this diversion, and Cr'spi resorted to a vigorous efs fort at Colonial expansion in that quarter. The rest we know from the ndvices received from both Massowah and Italy during the last few mouths. For a time there were encouraging re ports of Italian progress against the Abyssinians, and the government's policy had a strong backiug. Then came the news of disaster following disaster, aud finally the bitter story of the terrible cefeat of Sunday, which may put an end toltaiy'a coloni zation schemes in Alrica tor many years to come. But even should this last men tioned humiliation not result, and even should the upheaval at home that threatens Italy not prove fs serious as is reared, there can hardly be a question that the nation has lost ground in Europe that it will be hard to recover. It is even thought by some that now that Italian arms have so greatly disappointed ex pectations, Italy will not only no longer be a very "welcome mem ber of the Dreibund, but will re ceive the cold shoulder from Great Britain. Tbe latter, as is well knowu, encouraged tne Massowah venture iu order that she and Italy might engage in para'lel operations when the op portune occarion arrived for the re-conquest of the Soudan. .

And now comes the strange pro ceeding. Upon the aeon of the com mittee in the Speight case be coming known Friday morn ing, ai'd before the committee hud made up their formal report, Mayor Hill immediately and has tily summoned the Board to meet in special session. Accordingly the Board convened Friday afternoon, eight members attend ing, the ninth alderman, Mr. Jno. R. Smith, being absent from tbe city. "- On calling the Board to order Mayor Hill stated that he had convened them "at the request of some members of the Board" to pass upon the case of officer Speight who desired to appeal from the decision of the Police Committee. Chairman O'Berry of the Po lice Committee thereupon re ported the action of the commit tee in regard to Speight, stating the charges and the evidence; whereupon Alderman Hiiker moved "that the action of the committee be set aside and officer Speight, be reinstated." Upcn this motion a vote was taken, which resulted in a tie: Alder men Hiiker, Dock Smith, Walter D. Creech and Jas. Hogans, the colored member, voting for the motion; and Aldermen, J. Y. Nash, O'Berry, Henry Lee and W. T. Hoilowell voting to sus tain the committee. Mayor Hill, exercis'irg his prerogative, un tied the situation by casting his vote against the committee and in favor of the Hiiker motion. In taking this course Mayor Hill stated that he was present at the investigation of the committee, and saw nothing in the evidence to justify their action. The action of the committee in suspending Speight was unan imous. There was no review of the case before the Board of Al dermen, no examination of wit nesses or weighing of testimony. Alderman Nash in voting with the committee stated that iu the absence of any testimony before the Board he would, of course, vote to sustain the committee. The other four voted against the committee, therefore, , just so, without - according them the common courtesy and right of a hearing; and the statement of Mayejr. H,iU' in casting liis vote with them was not made until the vote resulted in a tie, conse quently they did not even have his views to guide them. Messrs. O'Berry, Hoilowell and Lee, thereupon promptly re tired from the Police committer and filed i heir resignation as members of the Board of Alder men, This Is the condition tfn.t coi fronts our people to-day.
