On last Friday the editor of The Record spent a few hours at Siler City for the first time in nearly two years, and we were pleased to note the marked improvements that had been made therein that time. It is now the largest town and most important sta tionontheold Cape Fear & Yadkin Valhy railroad (now a branch of the Southern) between Greensboro and Sanford. It certainly could not now be recognized as the nlace known as "Matthews' Cross Roads'1 only twenty-rive years ago! The most marked improvement since our previous visit is the hne hutel erected last year by Mr. F. M. Hadley and so we 1 kept by Mrs. Thackstoa. It is a commodious brick building fur nished with all modera conv.eniences, such as water-works, bathrooms and gas. The bedrooms are neatly furnished with first-class furaiture, and alto gether it is a hotel that would do credit to a much larger town. There are now quite a large number of brick stores and in front of them are smooth cement sidewalks equal to those seen in many cities. The cotton mill is running on full time, day and night, although most mills have curtailed their work. Siler City caa now boast of being the metropolis -of Chatham, as it lias nearly twice the population of Pittsboro, although just one hund red years younger. , yet some people say it does not pay advertise '.

Mr. Editor: I wish through the prlumns of The Kecord to second the nomination of one person for county commissioner who was highly recom mended in The Record of last week. That man is Mr. W. M. Lindsey, of r?nrk lifnt township. He is one of hi lownshin's best business men, and a most talented young man of whom any township or county might be justy proud. I think he would make an excellent county commissioner. I also wish to second the nomination of Mr. W. O. Farrell, of Centra town ship, who needs no recommendation. And, furthermore, I would like to suggest to the Democratic voters of Chatham "that we nominate Messrs, W. M. Lindsey, W. O. Farrell and N. J.
