There was quite an imposing attendance at the Citizens' meet ing Tuesday night to discuss the proposed Snow Hill Railroad. flon.C.B. Aycock presided and Capt. T. H. Bain acted as sec retary. The delegation from Snow Hill consisted of Messrs. J. D. Grimsley, Geo. W. Sugg and W. James Jordan, and C. D. Saute and J. H, Harper, two represent- ative and influential colored men of that town. Messrs. Sugg and Grimsley presented their claims in earnest and stirring words, and encour aging talks were made in advo cacy of the road coming to Golds boro by a number of our citizens. A committee of twelve ws ap pointed to ranvass the city and report to an adjourned meeting next Tuesday night. The Georgian's Political Manager Turns Gold Bug and WTill See Tom. - '... - , , Brunswick, Ga:, April 12. Capt. H. W. Reed, f Georgia, who was Tom Watson's right hand man during the late Presi dential campaign, is now an ad vocate of . gold, and has .gone ex tensively into the mining of that metal in Mexico. Mr. Reed was President of a national bank in Brunswick, in this. State, and sur prised his banking friends . by adopting I'opulisnu lie was a delegate to the St. Louis Conven tion, whej e he was placed upon the National Committee, Then he was chosen as a member of the Standing Committee of Three, headed by Mr. Washburn, to di rect the canvass and bring about an understanding between Wat son and Bryan. Reed thus be came - Watson's mouthpiece, and resisted all efforts at fusion upon the electoral tickets . . The election being over, Mr Reed went on a business trip to Mexico, and he has just returned. "I have gone into gold mining," said he. "It is now the monev metal of the world, and as a busi ness man I refuse to shut my eyes to facts. - I have fund in Mexico ore which runs to the fab ulous value of forty-five ounces to the ton, or $900. Labor there is only 62 cents a day m Mexican money. This" gives a saving $2.50 a day on that score over mining in the United States. Tim ber is cheap and water-is abun dant. 1 intend to return to Mex ico next month and develop my business there The new attitude of Mr. Reed causes great comment among his political friends here.. He will visit Tom Watson next week to talk ovei the situation. G otton. With careful rotation of crops and liberal fertilizations, cotton lands will improve..

St. Louis, Mo., April 12 St. Louis factors say enormous damage basJjeen done to cotton planting iuterests in the South as a result of the flood in Arkan sas, Mississippi, Louisiana and a portion of Southeastern Missou ri. It is estimated on a conserva tive basis that ths inundated ter ritory along tha Mississippi riv er produces an annual average of 1 500,000 bales of the nighest grade cotton. From present in dications the average output will be materially reduced oy the ravages of waters, in fact, in many localities, it is doubtful if any crop at ail will" be raised, while in others there will be - a sickly yield. - A million and a half bales of cotton, even at the ordinary price, aggregates probably o0, 000,000, and conservative esti mates place the damage to cot ton alone at about this figure, not to take into consideration other losses incident to the flood.

April, 12.- The Times correspondent at Athens w'll say to-morrow; ' 'The news of the in cursion iuto Turkish territory has been received here with great jubilation. The general be lief is that nothing now can re strain the army, which is bound to follow across the frontier in a few days. Tbe Athens newspa pers rt fleet the popular enthu siasm atid contain highly opti mistic forecasts of the progress of the band in Macedonia, where i!s presence is expected to exert a magical influence on the Chris tian population and to be a sig nal for a general uprising. The former exploits "of the famous insurgent leaders accompanying the expedition afford, it is be lieved, a - guaranty of splendid success in the future. 'One newspaper says that the die is now cast; that a successful beginning has been made; that it is all over with diplomacy, ne gotiations and identical notes or blockades and that the eloquent voice of the rifle has spoken at last. A telegrati from Arta to night (Sunday) says that the Greek bands are crossing tbe frontier at various points and that war seems inevitable." $100 REWARD $100.
