Of Value to Tax-Payebs D. R
Julian, C. B. C, calls the reporter's at
tention to the action of the Board of
Town Commissioner at a called meet
ing, held on last Friday. It was order
ed that "all persons who failed to list
taxes for J885, would be relieved of
double tax penalty for not listing
by calling on G. H. Shaver, City Tax
Collector, on or before the 1st day of
December, 85, and paying a single tax.v
This is an exceedingly generous thing,
and it is the first time, to the writer s
knowledge, of its being done. -Those
who were absent, or from other cause
failed to list, should jump at this offer.
(jet Bill Boards.
It is a common practice to bedaub
-shade trees, lamp posts, well frames
and other public property in town,
with posters of every description. Pri
vate property too, is, in many instances,
abused in the same manner without
permission from the owners. It gives
the town a ragged and a-don't-care-appearance.
A spetacle similar to that
presented at a cross roads countrv
store. The Scales in front of KIuttzs
Drug Stone looks more like a junk
shop than anything else. There should
bean ordinance prohibiting the posting
of such matter any where except on
bill boards which should be made for
the purpose and placed at public places
in town. It would pay an enter
prising boy to look after such work.
Cotton Trade.
Trade in cotton has been brisk here
this week, and the best prices have
been paid as a rule a small advance
on prices in neighboring towns.
Mr. J. D. McNeely hMbeen doing
an active business in cotton this

the lead in cotton. He is prepared to
handle ten thousand bales this season.
He has also taken the precaution to
provide a special warehouse for storing
cotton bagging and ties, for supplying

Tobacco Items.
Hakkins & Son are hauling the ma-
terial for their
"Iron Sides' Tobacco
Warehouse.
Jebusalem township, Davie co., boasts
of the largest tobacco crop ever raised
in that section. Mr. Charles, a mer
chant there says it is twice as lanre
as any previous crop. Remember
that bahsbury offers as good prices as
are paid anywhere, and is nearer than
any other market.
1H0MA80N & Swink are pushing
their Tobacco Warehouse to rapid
completion, it will be completed in
ten days or two weeks. It is 50x120
feet.
Take it all in all, Mr. Robt. Gobble
has exhibited the finest tobacco that
has been handed around this season.
Mr. G. has had considerable experience
in the culture of tobacco, and under
stands thoroughly the methods of cur
ing hence the snlendid result.
BEALL, BOST & FOABD have been
doing as much business as the spnson
will admit breaks nearlv everv dav.
Rumors regarding the ?big" prices
paid at other points has stirred them
up. 1 hey have sent an expert around
to the neisrhborins' markets to "snv

non. a ney also expect a lot of specu
lators and "order buyers" here as soon
as the season is a little further advan
ced. Heretofore the irreerularitv of
breaks has deprived the market of the
stiniulous of this class of bidders: but
the increased business has enticed
them. Prospects for the fall are
most flattering to both farmers and
warehousemen.
Among the Merchants.
Mr. W. C. Lindsay has iust returned
from New York, where he has been
lavini? in a stock of t?oods for the firm
of
MEBONET A BBO.
He says he bought the larsrest stock
this year that he has ever purchased.
and he brags on his line of "tricots"
and "camels-hair" and other dress
goods, including black silks, cassiraeres
&c. He also mentions a fine line of
ladies and children's wraps.
Mr. W. L. Kluttz, of the firm of
KLUTTZ A BENDLKMAN,
has also returned from the northern
markets, and is now receiving the
largest and most satisfactory stock
ever opened by the firm. It includes a
complete line of general dry goods,
fine groceries; shoes and clothing de
partments increased to meet the de
mands of their growing trade. Special
attention was given to the crockery
and glassware department. His line
of fine table wares will be unexcelled
on this market.
JOHN D. GASKILL'8
entire force, which by the way has
been increased recently, is engaged in
arranging a splendid stock of goods
no better was ever brought here and
he says that he has made a special
feature of clothing and hats. His
stock is larger than usual and he says
that "he desires comparison: for if
they compare goods and prices, I will
get the trade."
He also has his usual line of guanos
for wheat and tobacco.
Special arrangements have been
made to meet the demands of the job
bing trade to country merchants and
he is prepared to save money to all mer
chants who trade with him; in fact, he
is prepared to do a general wholesale
trade. "Take tobacco, for instance; I
am selling manufactured tobacco at
from one to two cents less on the
pound than can be bought elsewhere,
and then I save all the freight to the
purchaser." The tobacco is the best
home manufactured plug and twist.

Two Hew Discoveries in Rowan.
Specimens from two hitherto unmen-

been sent to the Watchman cabinet
and identified. One is a suluhide of
iron in quartz matrix from the farm
of Robt. Denton, in the western part
of the County, and the other is from
the farm of Mr. Samuel Eller in
Providence Township, near the Yadkin
river. It is a fine brown ore, showing
free gold, is from the surface and will
run into heavy sulphurets at a shal
low depth.
Long Creek Mine.
The old Long Creek mine in Gaston
county is being opened up again by
some gentlemen from the North.
ihe property is well known, and has
been a famous producer in days srone

many others, deserted. Now it is being
cleared under the active and intelli

Williams. It is purely a private work;

more reliable for that. The ore is
sulphide of iron in quartz.
Smelting Works.
From a highly official and reliable
source, the information comes of the
quiet investigation of capitalists into
ine ieasioiiity 01 buuoing smelting and
reduction works here, thus affording a
home market for all refractory ores.
As soon as the movement assumes
more definite shape the facts will be
given to the public. The Watchman
has been advocatiner thissten as a
ast resort for the highly refractory
ores of this section, for several years,
and hails this movement with pleas
ure.
The Barringer Mine.
This property has just been released
rrom an awkward suit. It is located
in Stanly county, about four mile3
from the famous Gold Hill mines in
Rowan. The ore ; carries only a small
percentage of auriferous Fe. Sulphide,
out is exceedingly rich in free g(jld.
Seams half an inch thick of pure gold
have been taken out, and had it not
been for the unfortunate litigation
would have been producing today, j It
is the property of the Barringer Gold
Mining Counpany, of which Col. Sam
uel Truscott, of Ohio, is president, and
Theo. F. Kluttz; Esq., of Salisbury,
N. C, is vice-president. There are
but three stockholders. It is hoped
that the parties will go to work in the
development of the property, since it
is one whose outlook is most flattering
for financial success.
Gem Mining.
Mr. W. E. Hidden, Mineralogist has
been engaged in mining for gems in
Alexander county, this summer.
Since the 26th of July hehas had
from twelve to fifteen hands at work
on the Emerald and Hiddenine Mining
Co's. lands, and on the land adjoining,
now owned by Mrs. A. E. Morton, of
Newark, N. J. He has had success at
both localities; on the Co's. lands has
been found four fine emeralds within
the last two weeks, and on the Morton
land he has found, uji to date, nine
new pockets of hiddenite.
Of the emeralds referred to, the
largest was one and nine sixteenth
inches long, and seven sixteenths of an
inch in diameter. Its color was excel
lent for its size. Of the hiddenite
found, about an ounce was of superior
color, but suitable only for small
gems.
Mr. Hidden has found immense
numbers of fine modified quartz crys
tals many of them beauties. One
notable group of quartz crystals
(water bearing) weighs nearly 100
pounds.
Of scientific minerals he has obtain
ed the best crystals of monazite and of
xenotime, yet fouhd in the whole
world over.

A FRIGHTFUL CASE OF A COLORED
MAN.
I contracted a fearful case of blood
poison in 1883. I was treated by some
of the best physicians in Atlanta. They
used the old remedies of Mercury and
Potash, which brought on rheumatism
nnrl imnnii'Ml mv diirpaf tvo npmina TTvanr
joint in me was swollen and full of pain.
When 1 was. given up to die, my physi
cians thought it would be a good time to
test the virtue of Swift's Specific. When
I commenced taking S. S. S. the physi
cian said I could not live two weeks un
der the ordinary treatment. He com
menced to give me the medicine strictly
according to directions, which I continued
for several months. I took nothing else,
and commenced to improve from the
very first. Soon the rheumatism left me,
my appetite became all right, and the
ulcers, which the doctor said were the
most frightful he hadver seen, began to
heal, and by the firstof October, 1884, 1
was a well man again. I am stronger
now than I ever was before, and weigh
more. S. S. S. has saved me from an early
grave. LEM McCLENDON.
Lem McClendon has been in the em

SALT RHEUM OR ECZEMA.
In April, 1884, there appearaed on my
feet and legs what the doctors called Salt
Rheum, which produced intense suffering!
I tried s great many remedies, and had thc.
attention of one of our best physicians, out
received no permanent relief. The dis-
ease continued to grow worse and my
limbs were greatly inflamed. I was finally:
induced to try Swift's Specine, and afte .
takin" four bottles relief came. I contin

I have been afflicted a number of years
with cancer, and have tried all the rcme
dies suggested for this terrible disease
without any benefit. Biz bottles of t he
Swift's Specific has done me more goodf
than all the medicine I had taken. My
strength has returned, and I can walk
farther and take more exercise than I bavq
been able t do for years. Its effects have
been wonderful and the cancer has greatly
improved. W. Shiesling.

Swift's Specific is entirely vegetable,;

the impurities from the blood. j
