This matter should not be given up by our peoele and another desperate attempt ought to be made to prevail upon Col Page to come here. As we have shown before, this road should, to establish an air line from the great West to our sea coost, be ex tended by Troy on to Salisbury, there to connect with the Western North Caroli na Railroad which would complete the most direct line from tho extreme west- em portion of the State to the sea. Let's ee if Salisbury will not join us in the catter Lumps of Gold. THEY ARE IN SIGHT NO DIGGING A few miles east of Salisbury is a strip of countrv known as "the Rocks." It extends across a part ofRowan aud Dav idson counties. In this section lies the miuiiiiz region known as Gold Hill. This c-, ledge is composed of a fine quality o granite, much of which is above ground For many years immense quantities o this stone has been quarried tor various nuruooes. Much of the stoue used in 1 Salisbury for building paving and foi monuments comes from these quarries Ow ing to the distance from railroad has been an 'expensive business. But the completion of the Yadkin railroad from Salisbury to Norwood opens up a trreat irranite business. Ihe road runs C5 O through "the Rocks" near Dunns Moun daughter-in-law, Mrs. J. M.

After leaving Mr. Brown's we went up to Mr. Theo. uuerbaum's, the well-known dealer in pictures, pic ture frames, books, stationery, toys and all kinds of things that you want for Christmas and at all times. Santa Claus was well pleased and if the stock had not been large bis purchases would have exhausted it. After leaving Mr. Buer- baums, Santa Claus said he intended buying a lot of confectioneries, groceries, stoves and the like, but as nono of the dealers in these articles advertise in the Watchman, he didn't know that they had more than thev wauted for their own use as they had not advertised in the Watchman. After our shopping tour we asked for the views of Santa Claus as to the future of Salisbury. He readily answered that with her intelligence, railroad facilities, situation, natural resources, good back country, &c, she ought to and soon will I be one of the foremost cities in the Slate Faaiiat C-Uara.
