Last week ti.e Watchman job press
was broken. It is a complicated ma
chine: To send it north would have
been expensive and much time lost.
Capt H. II. Marsh, the machinest came
in and sat and looked at it a long time.
Finally he said he and M;. Trexler could
put it in -i-hip shape. This they have
done. The broken part is as sound as
ever
thin;
Such iiuchai.ical skill is a good
and ought to be well patronized.
Vv'heat and oats look more promising
than they did before the last rain. Corn
is-in good shape, but more land should
ue planted. Cotton is not doing well.
Some that wa planted very early is
do'.ngtfairly well. Mr. J. C. McCanless,

I the notice when he was a school boy in

schools of Mc Kinney, Texas.
Professor Faust has been .elected prin
cipal of the high school ut Coiviean.i. ' We
do not know whether he has yet accepted
the posiiiou or not, and hope that ar
rangements can be made to keep, him
. here. He has the school. of this citv in

wording ovtlcr ana-has given
general satisfaction. To displace him
now for the want of a hilie iui. ds and
put
in a new man -would cause confusion
at the bepr.ii. mg ct the next term.
Professer Faust is the right mail in the

A IlELIC OF THE PAST.
The Hoiis3 VflieVe. the Xnmercna 'Brown
family Origiuatcd. i
A boat three miles east from Salisbury
is the "old stotie house." Some account
ofitmaybe interesting' to those who
have never seen or beard of i: The
house isr built of pure split granite, is
about 22x30, tya sto ies hijfh, and con
tains si:: rooms. The walla arc -neat
and the fu-st, story is two feet thick and
the second is eighteen inches thick. Ev
idently it was built for defence. On ore
ofthestcr.es in the front side of the
building is tha following inscription:
"MICHAEL BKAUN"
"177C."
Then follows a number of letters sup
posed by some to have been the initials
of Mr. Lraun's children, as follows: "T.
O., P. E., M. E , B. E., M. J., C. If., D.
A."
"Brnun" is a Scotch way of spelling
"Brown." Mr Brown, a decendent oi
Michael "Brnuuy' the builder of the
house resides there now.
The house was first covered with cy
press shingles hauled on a wagon from
Charleston.- S. C. The cement used in
building the walls was made by burning
musslc shells, which were also haultd
from Charleston. The roof has been re
placed twice and it needs it again. Ti e
house was plastered when first built,
the laths are pine split. One of tie
fireplaces -is nine feet wide. In the
rooms the fireplaces are in the corners of
the building.
H.iudreds of people have visited the
place. The walls contain the names
of prominent editors in New York. Bos
ton, Richmond,' Washington, Chicago,
Cincinnati, Atlanta and other cities.
iMuin Talk.
The writer Jias heesi here nearly six
months. We have no serious complaints
to make. So far we have been treated
as well, perhaps, as any editor .who has
ever been in Salisbury. The subscrip
tion and advertising patronage of this
paper was very low, but has grown
steadily, though slowly. The future
prospects are good. .
But there is something radically wrcng
with Rowan county. This county has a
population of nearly 25,000 people. pi
vide this by five audi it makes nearly
5,000 families in the icuiity, and yet
there never has been a -paper published
in Salisbury, even as a strictly local one,
that could have run a month without the
patronage drawn from other counties
and sections. There are at least 3,500
white families in Rowan county. Make !
the most liberal allowances and we
think not less than 2,500 should take a
lie me paper. Yet no Salisbury paper has
ever had more than six hundred sub
scribers in the town and county. So
there must be hot less than 3,000 white
families in Rowan county 'who do not
and have neyer patronized their home
papier. A great many read no papers,
and some read outside papers. But al
together this showf; a sad state of affairs.
It is humiliating that a count' having as
much natural wealth as any in the State
should make such a record. We don't know
who is to blame. But every intelligent
man and woman (and there is a large
number in the county) should goto work
aud change Ibbs as soon as possible. So
much, ignorance and so little local pride
sliould not be tolerated. It is natural
that we should want thein to take this
paper, but if you prefer any other paper
all right. .But there should be a change
here and a quick one. The scarcity of
money is a phiusable excuse, but an un
reasonable one. It is poor economy to
fail to patronize home papers.
We want to introduce the Watchman
into every home in Piedmont Carolina.
Iu order to do this we will send it to any
address three months for 25 cents- Now-
let every reader of this paper send at
least one three-months subscriber, or bet
ter still, half a dozeu or a dozen. Get
your neighbor to read it three inonths
and no doubt most ot thtrn will con
tinue it.

A 15: ief History of tlio Finest De
posits in America 'Milli.Mi
of Dollars in Si-!it.
Did you know that Rowan county con
tained mountains?
Did you know that within four miles
of Salisbury is located the largest deposit
of fine granite in the world?
It is true. .
A few miles west of Salisbury Young's
mountain looms up like a powerful sen
tinel. East of Salisbury there is -a range
of small mountains about ten miles long;
the nearest point to town is three miles.
Tiiese monntnin? are simply jrrcat
mounds of the best building trranite in
America. The. granite crops out in huge
boulders all along the range, the most
prominent places being Dunn's moun
tain and StOne mountain. . .
The first quarry workBd was ou Bur.n's
rdountain, ahout 1873., ' (Government ex
perts, collected sample--of North Caro
lina granite before they began the con
struction of the beautiful pos'toflice build
ing at Raleigh. The Dunn's mountain
granite was -pronounced the best in every
respect. So enough was quarried there
to build the first two stories, and mate
rial for the third story was gotten out at
the Klutlz quarry, about one mile south
of Dunn's mountain. Those who have
seen the public building at , Raleigh will
know that the material is first class in
every particular.
Up to last year Dunn's mountain was
owned by Mr. David A. Eller. Last
year he sold to Messrs. J. C. & N. B.
McCanless for a large price. The moun
tain contains considerably over one
hundred acres. A little later these gen
tlemen sold several shares to local cap
italists. Another sale ispractieally made
to parties in Washington city. Mr. F. B.
Arendell has been negotiating with Wash
ington capitalists, ami made a trip to
Washington recently on that business.
A part of the company lias been here and
have made a satisfactory inspection.
Others will arrive this we-k. One of
the gentlemen, who has. been in the
granite business for years, remarked
while here that Mr. Arejadell had mis
represented D. inn's mountain to him,
but did so by failing to claim as muelr for
the granite as he m ght have done. The
gentleman added that he had examined
granite deposits all over the country
" but bad never seen anylhfrig to equal
Dunn's mountain and never expected to
see it."
Two branch lines have been built from
the Yadkin road, one to Kiuttz's quarry
and the other to Stone mountain. An
other line will be built in a few weeks to
Dunn's mountain.
At the Klutt. quarry they are getting
out Belgian blocks to bo shipped to
L-jn-isviile, Cincinnati amF-other cities.
It looks as if Salisbury
mi:
is
Id pave her
liiiht at our
streets when the .stone
d.jors. Seine fine granite that should be
usjd for building aud other purposes is
b.-ing split for Belgian blocks. Only
small pieces should be made into paving
stones. Tlu fragments can be crushed
and used for macadamizing our streets
and public roads.
We can't say w hat the outcomo wid
be, but the fact remains that there a-re
many acres of the finest, granite in
this country within a few miles of Salis
bury. Mr.' W. F. Buckley, of New York,
has a ledge of fine granite between
Dunn's and Stone mountains. Mr. J. T.
Wyatt, of Faith postollice, is manufactur
ing a fine quality of millstones from this
granite. The owners of this granite land
should not refuse to sell, but we thiuk
they should work the granite themselves,
for it is here in inexhaustable quantities
and there are fortunes in it.
These quarries will be heard from again.
Charlotte is destined to become a great
gold centre. The Manufacturer? Record
says there are five mines in the imme
diate suburbs of that thriving city and
sixty altogether iu the county. About
one-third of the total number are worked
with some degree of 'regularity and the
remainder irregularly. Northern capital
has sought and is .seeking this locality.
There has been assayed during the past
fifteen vears at Charlotte 2,100,000 gold
bullion, representing a large portion of
that section of North Carolina and Meck
lenburg county, and $2,000,000 of north
ern capital is now invented iu the Meck
lenburg mining industry. The Rudisill
has produced since inaugurated $2,500.
000 in gold, and Capo's Hill about 2,000,
OOO. Boston and Ne.v York capitalists
are to increase the development with im
proved machinery.
The Concord Standard reports the find
ing of a nugget of gold near Georgeville
weighing l'Jo pennyweights. The gold
fever is high in west Cabarrus.
A 40-stamp mill will be put Jji the
Catawba mine, near King's mountain.
The production of mica in the United
States, according to the researches of our
ceusus bureau, is diminishing very rap
idly both in the output and money re
sults. The highest point was reached in
1SS1 with a product of 147,410 pounds,
valued at $3GS.525, with, however, but
4J.000 oounds worth $70,000 in 1SS6
The output was 49,50 ) pounds in 1S31),
