A hail and wind storm passed
over this city Sunday afternoon

falling on shingle roofs. Fortu
nately for the vegetation they did
not fall regularly and soon became
smaller. Verv little damage has
been reported.

from Camp without leave and a
slight penalty will be mmcted.

serter, was captured Tuesday

wul, no doubt, be more severe.

Dear Argus, As the time
approaches for the nominating
convention for our county, it b3-
hooves us us to nominate men
who are tiue to the principles of
the grand old Democratic party
men who have been tried in the
balance, and have not been found
wanting and our present effis
cient Sheriff, B. P. Scott, is one
of the men to lead the ticket to
victory, for without xegard to
party affiliation, he is wanted for
Sheriff again. For treasurer, Mr
Atlas Uzzell should be nominated
again. He made us a good officer
two years ago, but we hear the
names of Messrs. Ed. Hood and
J. M. Wiggins, who are candi
dates for the nomination also.
For Register, I would suggest
either Mr. E. T. Atkinson or
H. Gurley as men who would
fill the office with neatness and
dispatch," while to the latter is
due something for "services ren
dered," and besides, he is a dis
abled Confederate soldier.
I will "leave the other offices
open for some one else to sug
gest,but above all things, let us
nominate Democrats,

THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS
is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientiflC processes
known to the California Fig Sybup
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing1, the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fig Syrup Co
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding' the worthless
imitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the CAL
Fornia Fig Syrup Co. with the medi
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is
far ia advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
Dowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not gripe nor
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of

A Condensed Chronicling of a
Week's Happenings.
Dear Akgus: The fine season
of rain last evening has put our
tobacco f ramers to hustling this !
morning and a scene of busy ac
tivity meets the eye on every
hand. "We trust they may realize
more than they have from truck
so far, as peas have been a total
failure.
We have never seen so much
cotton planted, as we Jiavo seen
this season. Our observation has
been that where it was planted in
freshly furrowed ground, there is
a fair stand. As cotton is a hot
weather plant, we can see no
benefit to be derived from plant
ing, before the ground becomes
warm, as quite a number did this
year.
Mr. and Mrs. T. R. Gurley
spent Saturday night and Sunday
visting Mr and Mrs Lonnie Ed

Mr. and Mrs. Dallas Howell
were in our community Sunday,
to the delight of their many
friends.
Miss Annie Yelverton, of Stant
onsburg, was here Saturday and
Sunday visiting her sister Mrs. Geo.
Becton.
Everybody enjoyed "Children's
Day," at Pine Forest last Sunday.
There was a large crowd present,
and the exercises were interesting
and each one did their part well.
After the little ones completed the
first part of the programme, the
school was entertained by a very
instructive address by Mr. II. B.
Parker, of your city, who, in his
usual fluent and forcible style pre
sented the necessary foundations
required in a good Sunday Scboo!.
His remarks were to the point and
highly enjoyed. After an elegant
dinner, Mayor J. E. Peterson,
from your city, entertained the
school and it goes without saving,
that while he metes out justice to
violators of the law, he has tender
heart, and is thoroughly alive to the
interests of Christianity. L:ist, but
by no means kast, that prince of
good fellows, our former worthy
county man, Mr. T. B. Parker, of
Hillsboro, N. C, directed his re
marks entirely to tho children,
but we are sure everyone present
enjoyed them. His apt illustration
of the bouquet of flowers to the
lives of the children, its tiny
buds, its opening flowers, its full
grown roses, its beauty and love
liness, due to each flower having
performed its mission, havinsr
obeyed the will of God, was listened
to with rapt attention by the large
crowd. His host of friends were

We have been asked our views
on the prospect of fusion with the

and will say .that we are unalter
ably opposed to any such alliance,
In the first place the Populist have
not been sufficiently fumigated
Bince this fusion with the Republi
cans as to render them non nau
seating to life-long dyed-in-the
wool Democrats. In the next place,
there is by no means an equa
affinity for each other, and they
might unite in such form as to tax
a man's utmost knowledge of poli
tical chemistry to ascortain their
true combination. In the last place
the greater portion of Populists are
wanderers from the Democratic
fold, if they wish to return
let them do so, without asking the
Democratic party to openly ac
knowledge that their desertion of
its ranks was justifiable, as it
would virtually do, to fuse. If
the Democratic banner must trail
in the dust, let it do so, -with the
principles of honesty and truth
indelibly stamped upon it, and the
conscious assurance of an admin
