Mayor Geo. E. Hood made the
proposition to Mr. Andrew Cars
negie to build a library in Golds
boro and the latter readily con
sented, provided the city would
contribute 10 per cent, of tbe cost
of the library annually for its
support, which means that if Mr.
Carnegie should build a library to
cost $15,000, tbe city wou!d have
to contribute $1,500 for its sup
port annually. Tnis is tbe prop
osition and if the people of Golds
boro want tbe library, now is the
time to act.
Keep up interest in the good
roads movement. The want of
good roads is the great need of
the entire South, and those coun
try districts of the South that
are most prosperous and the
towns contiguous thereto are
those that have made progress
in improving their pub'ic roads.
One of tbe chief needs of Golds
boro is the improvement of its
public road approaches, and this
is one of the important under
takings that the Goldsboro Cham
ber of Commerce have now in
hand. Success to their com mend-
abie enterprise.
Tbe Good Roads Committee
o! tbe Goldsboro Chamber of
j Commerce waited on theB ardof
County Commissiorers, iri special
session inursjay, ana naa a most
satisfactory and encouraging in
te.view with those gentlemen,
which wiil donbtltsa cu inmate in
substantial aid t the good roads
movement for Wayne county at
an e trly day. The Bord listened
with interest to the s-troog argu
ment of Mr. Geo. C. Roall, pres
ident of the Chamber, and invit d
the committer to meet with them
again on the first Monday ia Dec
ember, when definite arrange
ments will be determined upon.
Mr. Geo. W. Brown, foreman
of the Argus, who, besides being
an ell-round printer, is a merch
ant as well, and has been doing a
successful business at tbe corner
of East Boundary snd East Cen
tre streets. He has done so well
with his uptown store that be
has now decided to venture down
the street, and has leased the ttore
where Charley Croom has been
doing business on Wnlaut street,
East. He has purchased the stock
which Croom had on hnd and
Rddei sevaral huadn d " dollars to
it. He has employed Mr. Ernie
Wilson, a young man who is well
known as a tiers, to take charge
of the business, which is tow
open and ready for pablic patron
age. Mr, Brown wi 1 stdl con
tinue to run h s up-town store.
Tre Argus wishes him success in
his new venture.
Friday night's coccert of the
Presbyterian ha es in the pari rs
uf the Qlyujl ia Club was a bril
liant sacce.-s in esery feature,
and the lurge attendance were
more than repaid in the delight
fully "rendered musical program,
not to speak of the enjoyable soc
ial intercourse, the delic ous re
freshments, tbe beautiful floral
decoratiors and the admirably ap
pointed and comfortable famish
ing of the club's i& 1 re. Every
number on tbe charmingly diversi
fied program was faultlessly ren
dered, and go highly appreciated
by the cultured audiecce that en-
core after encore followed. The
ladies desire tbe Argus to ac
knowlidje their thanks to the
Olympia Club, to those who so
generously asibttd tbem in the
evening's program, end to the pub
lic who so lioeia'.ly patronized
them .
The Argus is glad to note that
a number of the higher graie pu
pils of the GoLifboro Graded
School have oiganized a debating
society, known the 'Z b Vance
Debating Society," and have gone
earnestly to work discus -mg pub
lic issues. Nothing is moie cal
culated io build thet-e boys up in
to intelligent, well-informed, ag
gressive, public-spirited citizens
than this debating society which
they have organized, and we
heartily commend them. The
boys held a debate last night on
tJKesolved that the City Bonds for
Puf lie Improvements were ad
visable." The negative was sus
tained by Messrs. Israel Meyer
berg and Norwood Bass, and the
affirmative by Messrs. Clarence
A . s-.sLr n.A Vf. nr. r ,t 4- Hnllx. TUI
committee reported in favor of
tbe aSir n ative, but complimented
the fine speeches of . the negative
supporters.
The stockholders of tbe electric
light plant will come into posses
sion of $25,000 in cash as soon as
the city can secure the money for
tbe bonds and turn it over to tbe
stockholders The Argus does not
presume to dictate how tbe stock
holders ehall spend this money.
It is their money and it is none
of our business what they do with
it, but we tim ply wish to suggest
that they invest it in some manu
facturing enterprise which will
make money for tbe stockholders
and which will help Goldsboro at
tbe same time. Why not have a
knitting mill, or a cold storage,
or something else just as good?
There will be no canvassing to
secure subscriptions: the money
will already be paid in, and the
Argus believes that those who
own the stock and who will soon
come into possession of the money
would rather invest it in a manu
facturing p'ant, where it will
make something an;i do tbe town
good, than let it be idle. Thtse arej

Of course interest will center

discussion of the three Supreme

son, of Forsyth, and Judg W.
A. Hoke, of Lincoln. Tbe Sen

eff and there may be many
changes in the situation between
now and the time the vote is cast
for Pritchara'a successor.
It is not generally known who
wilt be voted for at tbe general
election next year, and a list of
the tffioes to be filled by the peo-

There are a number of candi
dates to fill the three Supreme

will be a candidate for Chief

self. It was stated yesterday that
Sufferers from this horrible malady
! nearly always inherit it not necessarily
from the parents, but may be from some
remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs
through several generations. This deadly
poison may lay dormant in the blood for
years, or until you reach middle life, then
the first little sore or ulcer makes its ap-
pearance or a swollen gland in the
breast, or some other part of the body,
! gives the first warning.
nently all the poisonous virus must ba
eliminated from the blood every vestage
of it driven out. This S. S. S. does, and
is the only medicine that can reach deep-
seated, obstinate blood troubles like this.
When all the poison has been forced out
of the system the Cancer heals, and tha
disease never returns.

A FINE SERMON.
Sunday night atSLPflul's Meth
odist church in this city, by iuvi-
tation, Rev. F. A. Biehop, pre
siding Elder of the Washington
District, preached a sermon to
Ruffin Lodge, Knights of Pyth
ians. At 7 o'clock, the Knights as
sembled at their castle hall, and
marched in a body to the church.
A large number of seats had
been reserved in the front part of
the church, and the long line of
Knights, by twos, marched in and
were seated in the space provided
for them. In a few minutes, the
excellent choir of tbe church be
gan the voluntary with the open
ing ode of the Knights of Pythiap,
'God Bless Our Knightly Band,
Firm Miy It Ever Stand, Thronga
Storm and Night," the Knights
themselves heartily joining ia the
singing. The woids of tbe beauti
ful ode, the ephndid voices nd
the notes of the great organ pro
duced a most thrilling effect,
which swept .over the entire aul
itnee that filled the big church.
Mr. Bishop then began bis ter
mor, wh'ch was in every way a
most excellent one. For an hour
j6 h!d h audi-nce, Knights and
laymen 11 aiike, for tte epeakor
jame with a mtsitga to a l the
people, ail with power and elo
qmnce he delivered thit message
to tbe great eudimce, who hung
upon his words.
Tbe Knights of Pythias are
etrong in Goldsboro, as they de
serve to be, for tbe principles of
the order, as Mr. Bishop declared
them Sunday night, are principles
that can Levir die.
