Fifty-one years ago an Amer

Cup is to remain. The Columbia

to report on the merits of the re

Had has the be3t of it, but it is
pretty near 'neck and neck."
WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?
Judge Robinson and the Statearille Bar.
Some days ago several papers
in the State published a sensa
tional telegraphic report from
Statesville to the effect that the
Bar of that town had continued
the civil docket of the county by
reason of aversion to Judge Rob
inson, and now the Bar of that
place are endeavoring to locate
the author of the insidious lie.
In the meantime, the Statesville
Mascot speaks of the incident ed
itorially as follows:
CIVIL DOCKET CONTINUED. '
"At a meeting of the Statesville
bar Tuesday all civil cases for
trial at November term of Iredell
Superior Court were continued by
unanimous consent. Civil suitors
and witnesses in civil case? need
not attend the term, unless they
have other business. This action
was taken by the bar for the reason
that the second week of our couit
conflicts with the week set apart
for the hearing of cases from this
district by the Supreme Court,
and several of tbe members of our
bar have important cases to argue
before the Supreme Court and
will be in Raleigh at that time.
The county commissioners, antic
ipating that the bar would take
this action, drew jurors. for only
one week of court. Only criminal
business will be disposed of .
"An article has appeared in two
or three newspapers of the State
saying that the reason we are to
have only one week of court .is
that our lawyers resented Judge
Robinson's discourtesy to them at
the August term. This is & mis
take. Judge Robinson - was not
discourteous to them, and ' they'
make no such charge against him."

GOLDSBORO A FIELD
For Enterprising; Men: Mr. A. T. Griffin
Big Shingle Mill.
A little over a year ago, there
came to Goldsboro a young man
who modestly announced that he
was going to erect a shingle mil
on the banks of Neuee "river, near
the suburbs of the city. That
man's name is A. T. Griffin.
Dime people generously (?) in
formed him that the shingle bus
iness could not be made to pay at
Goldsboro. But with an energy
and snap and go possessed by few
men Mr. Griffin rolled up his
own cleeves and erected a small
mill and began to make shingles
In a very short time, our people
saw that he knew what he was
about. They furthermore found
that Mr. Griffin not only knows
how to make shingles, that he not
only knowi all about the shingle
business, from the time the big
trees break the stillness of the
great forests as they fall victims
to the sturdy woodman's axe to
the time they float down the river
into the "boom!' at th mill,
thence into the greedy jaws of the
ever busy whizzing saws, but that
he knows how to sell shingles,
too!
In a short time, the home mar
ket was supplied, and then car
oad after car load of ehing
oegan going to otner marsets in
North Carolina and distant States
H.vrrv- ((", tr" mill turps out
i..v: iiLv-ti uo ihouaaud shingles.
The mill has grown to large
proportions, and occupies a beau
tiful site on the Neuse. Go down
to see it. The sight will do you
good. You realize, perhaps, more
than ever before, the opportuni
ties in our midst open to men of
industry, energy, and character-
in a word, men like A. T. Griffin.
Jiir. tfrimn guarantees every
shingle to be of juss tbe quality
he represents it to be. He places
on each bundle the stamp of his
own name, and no matter how
large an order a big dealer in tbe
North wants to place for shingles,
if he requests the bundles to go
unmarked he cannot buy them.
Mr. Griffin's motto is, "I stand by
my name, and my name must be
stamped on every bundle of shin
gle that goes from my nrl!."
QUALITY AND HEWS
FAME AND EXCELLENCE ARE
DETERMINING FACTORS
In Successful Development One
of the Important Func
tions ot High Class
Newspapers.
In presenting interesting
phases of scientific and econo
mic problems, high class news
papers frequently give informa
tion of as great value in their
advertising columns as in those
devoted to the publication of the
principal events of the day, and
when the fame of a product is
extended beyond its natural
limits into foreign lands, and a
large demand created through
out Great Britian and her col
onies and the principal sea-ports
and cities of Europe, Asia and
Africa, it becomes a pleasant
duty to note the factand to tell
of the points of excellence on
which so great a success is
based. We refer to the now
World-famed laxative remedy,
Syrup of Figs, the product
of the Californa Fie Svruri
w w a.
Company. The merits of this
well-known excellent laxative
were first made -known
to the world through the medical
journals and newspapers of the
United States; and is one of the
distinct achievements of the
press. It is now well known that
Syrup of Figs .is an 'ethical pro
prietory remedy, approved by
the most eminent ,. physicians
everywhere, because it is simple
and effective, yet pleasant to the
taste and acceptable, to the .sys
tem, and not only prompt in its
beneficial effects but also wholly
free from any unpleasant, after
effects, It ia frequently referred
to as the remedy-of the healthy,

A Week's E rents in That Thriv

This is tbe seaeon for "'possum

Miss Lula Neal spent Saturday
night and Sunday visiting friends
near Pinkney.
Mr. Alex Edgerton speot Sun
day night at Mr. W. H. Neal's.
We did not learn the character of
his business.
Rev. Mr. Jackson filled his reg
ular appointment Sunday at
Ebenezor, and preached to a large
congregation.
Mr. Henry Johnson and son
Deems, from Lucama, are visiting
in our section, whore their many
friends are glad to see them.
Mr. Phil Crawford and wife re
turned to their home near Kins
ton to-day, after a short visit to
Col. andMrs. M. K. Crawford.
Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Becton and
Mr. and Mrs. Larry Overman are
on a visit to Mr. and Mrs. Jack
YelvertoD, near Stantonsbnrg.
From present prospects the
cotton picking and ginning season
will soon be over. Don't let as
forget to plant plenty of small
grain.
VYnen a young man gets it so
bad he can't distinguish between
a man cooking syrup and a kitchen
fire, it is time to call in the
preacher.
Cooking syrup is the order of
the day now, and there has been a
sweet time around here for sev
eral days. It beats paying for long
ietening to drag your biscuit
through.
Mr. Bill Thompson is making
improvements on his house, near
Ebenezer. We do not know
whether "coming events cast their
shadows before," in this instance
or not, but we will watch him .
There are many farmers who
do not realize the fact that the
cotton crop will not bring any
more money than it did last year.
What we need is a big crop and a
big price at the same time. But
still the farmers are some better
off, as there are not so many of
them in debt as in the past, and if
prices stay up the acreage will be
more than double next year.
We have been "baching" at
'Oak Glen" for more than two
weeks, as Mrs. K. is off on a visit,
and while we have been calm, we
have not at all been serene. We
have fried every egg (sound ones)
we could find, and now the hens
are on a strike, and with all our
persuasive powers we can't induce
one to lay, so if Mrs. K. dossn't
soon return, or our hens get a
move on them, we are in a shy
row of stumps.
Well, the Reynards of our. sec-
ion now know that if Bob Hooks
has been off, he has come hack,
for the music of his "club" is oft'
heard in the land, and as a me
mento of a very exciting and
engthy chase, one morning last
week, he presented us with a fine
'brush" which now adorns our
sanctum. We think we will have
it nicely mounted, and utilize it in
coming years to 'ieep the festive
fly from perambulating over our
cranium, after its integument has
been denuded of its present cipil
ary growth. Many thanks, Bob.
