The change, is caused by no dissatis

has been adonted by counties, and
is
now the organ of two congressiona
districts. Tbe circulation, has increased
about 125 per cent, in seven months
The advertising patronage is more
than Hfc)0 ner cent, better. We have

been the recipient of unusually kind
'treatment from the people of Salisbury

here fifty-nine years. It has attended

The question with the masses is, are

a duty to call attention to an action of

There w ere five cadets at large to West

Harrison added his mite towards the
building up of a military nristoracy
by appointing four from well-known
military families and one from a navjtl

The Local ion f the Normal nnd

Correspondence of the Watchman.
When Thomasville entered the contest
for the location of the Nomal and In
dustrial. School for Girls we had" every
reason to believe that the large towns and
cities would not be in the contest. K
we had thought the location was to Le
huckstered around for the highest bidder,
without regaru to the suitability of loca
lion, TlMmasvil!e w.ould not bave entered
the race, knowing. that slio would bo like
a poor man at. a big sale, against the rich
towns and cities, but she was deceived
and caught by the gilis in a designing
net, and was not allowed to be at the
auction. Knowing it v.avnol the inten
tion of a majority of the legislature that
passed the bill, and that it was not in ac
cordance with the intent of ; be act, for
the school to be located iu a city like
Greensboro, we entered the contest
agaiust Graham and all other towns that
wished to try for the location, and could
comply With the Law.
What are thefucts? Maj. Finger adver
tised that the Board, of Directors ef the
Normal and Industrial fcvhool for girls
would meet in Raleigh on the 9th of June
to receive bids and locate the School.
The board inet,Graham,Thomasville and
Durham appeared before the board -each
made its proposition and strongly ad
vocated its claims, for five hours. At
5 o?cloek the board went into -private
session to decide, as we understand
between Graham, Thomasvilie and Dur
ham. Greensboro was not publicly
heard of a3 desiring the location, In
less than an hour from the time the board
went iuto private session, we received a
message from them that'the Board would
go to Durham to-n:o.-row, Wednesday, to
Graham Thursday, to 1 bomasyille Fri
day, before deciding. The time for
receiving Lids closed: therefore deciding:
we supposed betwecu the thice places!
ces meu contesting.
The Board hurridly parsed through
Durham and Graham on Wednesday, irot
to Thomasville that niiihtatllriiOo clock
and left Thoraasville the next mornin"
at 8 o'clock for Greensboro, statinir to ni
that they were hurridlv going back that
Greensboro was biiMi niuwl iLc-y w ere gc-1
ingtoauclioneer the location ofTiii Greens
boro twodays and one night.on thesecond
day they put the location up for sale. .
TTio. ,i:.t ... :.,r ... t. rt .
that they weregoinj to sell it oirt that
way, or that Greensboro was bidding un
til it was too late for us to get theie by
trains, so that we could even have a
chance to bid n;cainst Greensboro if we
had so wished, we certainly think we
should have been allowed to hear
Greensboro's arguments. We under
stand there were some very strong and
wonueriuiiy strauge arguments made to
stitution, as they were at that time the
niKutrsi, tuuaer.
If the law satisfied them selling on thai
day, it would ihavejusiitied them iu hold
ing on from day to day until all the pre
cinct's could 16, heard from inf answer to
Greensboro, ia person, and not by hurried
telegram, When the location was then
being sold and oniy one biudcr was on
grounds, the board having run off from
the other bidders to where their tired
bodies and wearied minds could have
rest in a rich clime.
ThoinasviUe's propositions were to do
nate Tiiomasvilie Female College and
ground, not less than six acres , of laud,
worth we say, twenty thousand dollars,
though the board did not think so; for
their use, and we to erect additional
building or buildings, according to plans
and specifiatioa to bo furnished by the
board to cost ten thousunnd dollars.
Or to erect on one of the five beautiful
l 03 otK red the board that tin y aid they
we; e very much pi eased with, after a
ha-ity iusdectlon before breakfast, build
ing a ceo nli ng to tneir juans and Fpeciii
ativuis, to cost twenty thousand dollars.
We guarcnteed good board in 3G gocd
familiei for 150 orL'CO girls -the tirst year
at S to $10 per month. We say we
complied literally with the law, and
Greensboro did not.
There were no bonds in Tlioinasvil'e's
proposition .?o far --as the Jioard were
concerned. The citizens of Tiiomasvilie
and the country executed a bond on the
board binding themselves, their . heirs
and assigns, worth not less than two
hundred thousand dollars, to fully and
faithfully carry out theabove proposition.
Before the bond was ' executed, 'ye
Were made to believe that the exe-
cution of a bond would give us the loca
tion. Can low rates of hoard he lratt
iu good families in Greensboro? Can
board in Matron's Hall be furnished at
actual cost, not to exceed eight dollar.-?
per month in Greensboro? We saj' nut.
Therefore sec. 12 of act will he violated,
the most important section of the bill to
the poor girls, one that was wisely -put-in
the bill by the Legislature to prevent
what has just happened, lo-wit ; the loca
tion in a city, where board won id be hi:Ji,
and coaly dressi ng would have to be worn.
We understand t'.ie argument was
made before the board that, under the
bill and their oaths, would have to locate
in Greensboro. We are tr!::d to know
that the bill don't read that way; the
i-.e-iisiui.ure couipieieu no sue i tiling,
and if it had been understood that the
School was to go to a city that vi Ul 1 n t
comply with s-e. 12, the bill failed to
pass, or see. 12 would not l:aye been put
in the act.

many aoo la lor less thnu the cost of making.
YieUont lilfek there Is anybody tu Charlotte
who would doubt the correctnessof this statement
In this! lot of hats. There was not pne that sold
regularly uader ft per drzen, nd from that up to
?l per doz?n. w hat will wf do with these hats?
c harje a profit over the manufaetureifs price or a
rt-asoaable profit on what we paid? We can afford
to sell ihem at loss than half the wholesale, prtcej
la ract we snail sell tht-ra at 50 cents. I
Xow, a'retalfer's price on a hat costing tl.BO
wcul l be about S2.50, but our plan sacs the buyer
tu??, aau gives mm tije same liat tn style and
qa-tiity, and all new, at 50 cents, andtwe mike a

our good ntlghbor decided. that we cbhld not

La'.ioe-for 2, whieh Uolton sold to marfhants at $3
tic said we were -selling Oougl s slices at ttie net
wholtlo cost, and both statements were true.
I explained -to my New York ff lead that we
bought the Boltoa shoe from a credilt failure ar,
one-tliird the cost (or $1) and sold it for $2. that It
did cost the man 53, It was above an average of the
sio :k- tn value or we should bave.sotd tt. for l.50.
As tt was we made $1 ter nnir 6n these slwes and
saved oiir pnrohs U .per pair. Thatori the Dongrlaa
.s:tue wv iaaue our usu ii pt otit to sell at the waote
.sale price and vt did that. r
We were nffered anUi?r lot ofiDougta&shoestr.ls

are very anxious to RPt them out. We shll tell

Sorapboly tried to m ike the impression thU we
these shoalwnsrht by some one else tllreetlv
-f?-om Douglas, and th .t Wf paid his price and sold
taoi at cost. That is not truo. We mkc a fair
