SEPT, 11th, 1890. i ; A NEW, SA. Yesterday marked a new era in Wilson's history! For years the people of a wide scope of territory have looked upon Wil son as the best otton market in the State, and they have shown their "faith by their works." As a result of the large business that ha been done in Wilson for the past twenty-five years (for ours is a young town) there is no towu! in the fctate that presents a bettor apjfear ance. Our stored are attractive brick buildings, jour residences ,are large and artistically con structed, while the various m ' dustries of the to'wn are all well equipped and prosperous. The large measure of success that the town nas achieved in the past rests almost solely upon cotton. In) the history of Wilson we caff trily say 'cotton ia king' Tho acreage panted in cottou hiLS not been " diminish? d, and yet we now havel another crop that is the only, basis of the prosperity of many of the most successful townsj in the. State. The gale in our -tobacco ware house yesterday demonstrated, beyond a 'doubt, that the brightest tobacco Is raised in Wi'son and adjoining counties in the largest quantities! The fact has been made perfectly pateut that tobacco is in the future the "euetn" of our fortunes and to divide the seat of honor with hoary old "king cotton,' whohasj so long pre served his "strength of binglb blessedness" in our midst. With a market handling twenty-five thousand bales of cotton aud millions of pounds of to b? ceo, and ja people ho, through bitter. r)als have learn ed the blessings of diversified crops, why should not Wilfon be the biggest and best town in Eastern North Carolina? She can; she will. The Bis Sale of Golden Weed" in Warehouse Here Yes terday a Most Auspi cious Dee:inTilng of a Live Boom for wllson. For more than a year the evsnt of yesterday has been mooted and looked forward to with Interest! by. those whose confidence in Wilson has never been shaken. , For more than a 5 ear a warehouse for the sale of leaf tobacco, has been talked tor this town. It is now a fact. It is also a fact that we have a good one. As it now! stands the warehouse is 80 feet wide by 160 feet loDg: with twelve fet pitch. The building is furnish ed with forty;; four sky 'lights, 24 windows, and nine large double doors. An elegant pair of Howe scales weighing up to 3500 pounds and balancing down as fine as i of an ounce.is oh the floor. At your left hand as you enter are the offices for book-keepers, clerks, etc, hand somely fitted up. A, basement exactly the same size , of the floor of the warehouse is in condition 10 receive tobacco for storage. It is well lighted and thoroughly ventilated. A large elevator 5 by 8 feet, trill con nect it with the floor above and everything is arranged for the convenience of the people ' who have dealings with the ware house. Capt! Pace, ..' the man ager, Is in excellent spirits at the out-look. The stockhold er? are more than satisfied at the bright DrosDects for a suc cessful season. ,.; .PERSONAL PABAQBAFES-. Pitt county's veteran tobacco grower, Mr A A . r or oes, was here with a fair shipment of good tobacco. Our people re- member the stubborn fight he made for Col I A Sugg in the Judicial Convention and gocn naturedly chaff him about getting left. He came up en thusiastically in favor of maki ing Wilson the leading market of the State and is going to do some good talking in Pitt for us.

The following: from the Statesvllle Landmark is worthy your reading : We read some times in the ijarbpro, Gold3 boro, Wilson and New Berne papers of Republican conven tions of which) this was an exact counterpart. . At certain stages it was a ljnobV Nothing like it hag ever been held here before. Its broadest side, how ever, was the hukriorou-i, and to the disinterested spectator it was better than play. Me.

Do not leave all the work for him to uo,'but help him and his election is reasonabl fcure. Every man to his work now until the first Monday in November. Warrenton Ga zette. Mr. Rogers, the -Democratic - candidate -for Congress In this district, is a lifelong Democrat. He graduated atCthe University of North Carolina with distinc ? , tion, served gallantiy in tbe ConTedeiate army, and since r the war lias been a farmer iov-" ed by his neighbors and honv ored by all wbopkuow him. .'New Berne journal. it, B. Ilardy,Esq., general agent of the State Chronicle, was in town . this week in tbe interest of that ex" cellent paper. We are glad that go many of the business men of this place. Mr. Daniel's native town take tbe rtail.y. Tbe Chronicle is the best daily in the State, many, competent judges say. J Early, Tuesday evening wag gons loaded with the "golden weed" began to arrive. From the east , and from the west, from .the north . and- from the south:, from Edgecombe and Pitt, from Nash and Franklin, from " Wilson and Wayne in carts and waggons and by rail it came. 1 be floor j was soon one busy, bustling, ' animated scene of hurrying men aud loaded trucks andat 6 o' clock was half fall of tobacco. All night the hands worked and yesterday morning early the floor was covered and waggona loaded were awaiting their term to get in. At 10: 30 o'clock the sale began. Capt. Pace stated in a business like way, that everything was ready, and auctioneer Harriss began to cry that first pile. The crowd was tremendous. It was estimated that at least 1,000 peoplewere in thewarehouse. Thesale proceed ed slowly, owing to the trouble in getting around among so many people, and at 12 o'clock not over one third of the floor nad been cleared off. It was a new sight for, our people. A stranger here may, have im agined thtt Robinson's circus had strnckSthe town With full force but such was not the case. Every body was anxious to see how the thing was going on and greatly hindered the buyers. Every bodyjseemed to be:in good humor and there was little dis satisfaction expressed at the price - for which the to bacco sold. Buyers were on hand from Kichmond, Danville, Durham, Oxford and Hender son andat times the bidding as spirited. . Not half the tobacco brought here could get on the floor yesterday, and the sale will be - continued to-day. Such was the beginning of Wilson's tobacco Bales. Under many difficulties the neoDle here have labored, but they have' money, pluck, persever ance and enterprise qualities which always command suc cess. ' " ' --.- The sale yesterday is no cri terion by which to judge the eales of the future. The hands were green and new at tbebuhv. inesa, and some of the tobac co received rough treatment. Much of it was damaged by the people stepping on it on the floor in getting about. After this week everything will move smoothly and satisfacs torily, we trust and believe, we.are - told -by competent judges that the prices were good tbe larger part of the tobacco bringing what it was worth. ..; r ." !;; t .The quality and quantity ; of tobacco brought to Wilson was a surprise to everybody. The fact is demonstrated :. beyond doubt that this ' f ectio. can grow the finest tobacco In the world. Wilson is the geograph ical, centre of this new; tobacco growing section, and the enters prise shown by5 the Wilson peo ple in the past is a suarautee th,t they will make Wilson the best tobi ceo market in the State. Her -business men .are fully imbued with this idea. A movement is now, under full headway to open another ware house here ibis fall for the rale of leaf tobacco. Prize houses are going up. Three have been contracted for this, week. To bacco raisers may, reftt assured that when they bring tobacco to Wilson they will receive the We were glad to see the fol lowing gentlemen from Battle boro.in our town yesterday : Messrs J M Neal, W PDavis, J.

Goir, CL Terrace Street, Boston. , The startling news . was brought to town early yester day morning, that Sowell Whit ley and son, "Robert, had been shot and killed about three miles from town, on the Wil son and Tarboro road. Dr. J. K. Raffia was notified! and at once summoned the following jnry to hold the inquest: M. B. Atkinson, J. R. Rawls, Wade Davis, G. P. Clark, McRae Boy- ett, E. J. Ameraon. The wife of Whitley testified that the father and son left home for Wilson at about 8 o'clock, and she knew nothing to throw light upon the assassination. A. C. Burnett testified that he heard four or five shots between 8 and 9 o'clock. This was - the testimony. The body of Whit ley was discovered in his bugy about two miles from the spot where the shots were fired. At least 16 shot pierced hid body, aud death must have been in- stantaneous. The body of Rob ert Whitley was found at the spot where the shooting occur red, with six or seven shot holes in it. He was alive and was taken home where he died in a few moments. The trees on the right side of the road were literally riddled with buck shot. Whitley 'was a notoriously- dangerous, bad character, and had many ene mies. At nearly every term of the court here he has appeared on tbe criminal side of tbe docket. He was a terror to the community in which he lived. While there are no regrets ex pressed at his death, the cow ardly manner of his taking off is to be condemned by all good, law-abiding citizens, and the fair 'name of Wilson county demands that the assassins should be brought to justice.
