The regular semi-monthly meet ing ofthe Board of Aldermen met in the city hall last Thurs day night and transacted the fol lowing business : The Salisbury-Spencer Railway was given permission to plaoe a temporary switoh at the court house, connecting the main line and the liue to the fair grounds. This permission was given for 90 days until the new special switch connection arrives. The company was required to give a bond of $500 for the proper carrying out of the grant. The following ordinance passed its second and final reading: Any person operating any locomotive sngine who shall blow the whistle thereof within the corporate lim its, or within the municipal juris diction of the city of Salisbury except such signals as may be ne cessary to prevent accidents, "and furnished by the rules of the rail road company shall upon convic tion be fined $500. Any person operating any stationary engine within the city's, jurisdiction who ehall blow The whistle thereof moie than 20 seconds shall on conviction be fiaed $500. City Clerk btahle Linn imme diately notified R. L Avery, su perintendent of the Ualisbury Spoucer terminal, of the action of the board, aud has received a re ply with assurances of cordial co operation. The engineers have been notified accordingly. An ordinance also passed its fin al reading that no trains shall stop on any street crossing in the oity longer than 10 minutes at any one time, and tha railroad noti fied.

A Florida Negro, crazd with co oaihe, killed three members of his family the other day, wem ded two other negroes who got in Mb way, shot a policeman and then committed suicide. Cocaine is no doubt responsible for a great many of the crimes committed by uegrces. Its use, at first pleas ing, gradually turns the negro in to a demon without any restiaint to hU fury or passions. It is un doubtedly one of the greatest men' aces to the negro race, and the Ne gto who uses it is a menace to the community. Mcst of the states and cities, realizing its danger, have passed strict laws regarding its sale, but it still gets into the hands of those who use it and sains recruits every day. It is a menace that needs the most care ful watching and the most rigid enforcement of law, to prevent its spread, to say nothing of stamp ing it out. Raleigh Times. Stedman Wins out In the Fifth District. Greensboro, 27. Major -Charles M. Stedman, "aveteran of North Carolina Democracy and a favorite Bon of Guilford county finally squeezed from the fifth district the nomination for Con gress, the 438th ballot taken at 11 o'cWk this . morning giving him the necessary majority over the other two candidates, Gen. B, F. Royster and Judge E. B. Jones. And at that moment the curtain was drawn on one of the most intensely interesting and thoroughly dramatic political un ravelings the State witnessed in recent years. .. - Overshadowing any similar con vention ever held in the fifth dis trict both in time consumed, gen eral interest displayed and tena city of the candidates, having lasted for six days and nights, it is doubtful if there has ever been a more memorable congressional convention held iu.

The first move since the stormy convention at WrightBville Beach one week ago was made to-day when Con gressman Godwin addressed a let ter to O. L. Clark, who was nom inated for Congress at Wrights ville, favoring leaving the matter to a primary, and the reply of Mr. Clark to the letter. Mayor Wright of Wrightsville Beach also comes out in a statement taking full responsibility for the appear ance of police at Lumina, where the convention was held. Both candidates, and their leadors from nearly every county in the district are in Wilmington. The letter of Mr. Godwin ap peared in the afternoon paper, Tmd although he does not say just what course he will pursue in case the executive committee should decide against him the letter is regaided as intimating that in 1 I.! case a primary is not called tnat he will proceed to make the race or Congress, regardless of the ex ecutive committee.

Cotton Takes Big Jump. New York, July 27. At the opening of the cotton market to day Frank P. Hayne, one of the New Orleans bull leaders, bid 15.80 for 50,000 bales of July and then 15.35 for 25,000 bales . This started a rush of. covering by balated shorts and inside of the first half hour Jnly cotton had sold at 1G.10, or 73 points aboveH the closing figures of last night. The shorts found very little cottoxi for sale and are estimated to have secured less than 1,000 bales on the advance. The restof the market was also very excited, and business was very active with August and new crop positions selling at 25 to 27 points above last-nights' prices on general buying, covering by recent selliuff as a result of continued dry, hot weather in Texas, bullish crop reports and talk cf a better trade demand. Trading in July will be over at noon next Friday and it is es timated that by the end of the month the bull leaders will have taken up at least 200,000 bales of cotton on July contracts in ad dition to the large amount of cot ton they received during May .
