J LJHtinao candidate for Regis ter of Deeds, made a 'speech an nouncing his candidacy aud grce fully introduced Mr. Simmons. Ia Barterfield and adjoining town ships Mr. Simmons is very popular. That he was warmly received then goes without saying. His speech was a good one and did much go xl in enthusing the un terrified Democrcy of Webb Tuwd. He discussed the political issms in his usual lucid style and concluded with an exposition of the rights of a citizen, whose duty it was to exer cise his privilege of voting whenever the opportunity came. He had heard that he had many friends in Barterfield, if they would still be so they would vote for the Demo cratic nominee because good citizen ebip, good government demanded it. The fact that Mr. Simmons will leave tho district to make Winston his home left not the slightest doubt in tLe minds ot any that he was act uated by tne best of motives, the good of the people. During his speech he was frequently interupted with applause and received a regular ovation when he concluded. ' You take ne Risk In buyingHoo Saraaparill, for it is everywhere recognized as the standard building-up medicine and blood purifier.

If you, decide to take Ho d's Sa reaps rilla do not be in duced to buy anything else instead, Tbe Fair. There are many reasons why this s '40 aid be the most successful fir ever held in Tarboro. To begin with; crops of every character ithis year have been boun tiful and armers are consequently exuberant in spirit and unusually flush of money. Secondly; Tarboro is mors access' ible from many quarters snd sec tions of East Carolina than ever be fore. The Norfolk4 and Carolina railroad op 'ns a section of country that was without direct connection with Tu- boro heretofore. The extension of the A. & R. E. R. to Plymouth and water connee tion at that point make it conve nient for all who may desire to at tend and make display. The completion of the Scotland Neck Branch to Greenville and to Kinston will accomodate the people cf ne of the moat fertile sections of of the State. It goes without saving that Tar boro is one of the most, accessible points in all the east. Again, with its two commodious, well equipped and admirably kept hotels and its boarding houses enter tainment for all is assured. Five livery sta'ules will care for all horses and then one of the pretieat towns in the State is well worth a visit. With these and many other ad vantages not enumerated, -coupled with the interest manifested general ly, the reporter feels safe in pretLoU ini one of the most enjoyable, edi fying and instructive exhibitions on 28 b 29th 30th and 31st of October, 1890 ever spread for public delicta tion. ' Everybody is cordially invited and especially requested to bring bis- wife and children bis uncles, cmsins and aunts.'' ' ' ? . Beware ! The business men of Tarboro, the farmers of Edgeeombe.and indeed, every man woman and child, in the county who purchases a dimes worth of u.erchandise of any description, all are vitally interested, in subscribe ing for the stock of the Hamilton railroad. They are only asked to lake $50, 000 of the stock, a controlling in terest. The acquisition ol this road by home people will ensure for all time oheap freights on cottor, all maus ner of produce aui every cla: s of goods that enters into the daiiy use and consumption of tbo people. That the cpimnmer pays the freight in the 'added coBt to tbe price of goods purchased is a fact patent to a half idiot. Tbe propo sition simply pr ves iUclf canies tbe full weight of argument in its very statement. Competition is not oidy the life of trade, as the adage l as 1;, but the correlative is fatally tiu.; it linguisti cs without aiid with its decadence goes the substarue of the people who p-.y largely enhanced prices for tbe want of it. With all treigi.t line leading in ihe couniy from foreign marie s merged under one man .geinent, does any ane in . 11 douur. tha ihe maximum possible tariff w.l. 1 e im posed ? The poet sy : - Kill a man's family tud he m iy brook i. But keep your hands m of his biec. lies pocket. So the material, pecuniary interest of this entire people, individually and collectively, is poignantly, per tinently affected. Beware, therefore, you. who have tbe ability to take even or e share of the Hamilton R. R. stock, befcc you com mitt hari kari your finan cial suicide and neglrt this, your last opportunity to i"-z!e a cor morant monopoly that will raise freights on you. Bew re before it is too late. Mr. Hitch's proposition will be open to the people of Edgecombe only a fe'v days longer; tben the proposition of the Atlantic Coast Line will be considered. If it is ac cepted and a merger takes place, every man with a grain of brains knows exactly what that means. When that consnmation is effected you may hug to your bosoms the grim and gory reflection that you 'nursed tha pinion tbat impelled the' steel." Delay is dangerous and to doubt is to be damned.

The jury in Thigpen against Bourne while clever as possible is decidedly the homiliest set of men that ever sat on an important case. There were more white people in tne court room than colored. Generally it is very much the re verse but many of the negroes are in the eotton fields. The protracted meeting in the Methodist church conducted by Evangelist J. W.

The grape crop never entirely fails. Evangelist J. W. Lee has by request postponed the delivery of his t-ermon against "dancing and other fashion ible sins" uutil Friday night. He will doubtless have an immense auditnee. Owing to the short time between pow aud the election the Democratic Congress Committee at Wilson Tues day decided not to appoint anyone in the place of Mr. Rogers who will remain the party's candidate.

MARTIN, Comm-, Is It to Fall? A GOLDEN OPPOBTON1TY VANISHING. The mass meeting to purchase a con trolling interest in the hamilton railroad was fairly successful in attendance but the re vers in subscriptions. W. E. Fountain called the meeting to o;der an I icquested W. L. Bailow to preside, II. L King and Frank Powell were elected pecretaries. S. L.. Naeh explained the object of the meeting He showed what ihe cost of the road had been $96, 000, That Mr. Hitch wLo owns more than ninety per cent, of the stock was willing to sell a controlling interest in the road and on terms which must be conceded to be very liberal. ' He showed how important it was that this communi ty should get control, He was fol.owed by Don Gilliam who amplified what Mr. Nash had said. . Mr, Gilliam's remarks ere well put and his arguments were unanswerable, ' He first showed Ihe Interest the citi zens of Tarboro had in it- Low freights would enlarge the teritory from which trade would come to Turboro. He cited the time when the A. & R, before it whs gobled up by tbe W. & VV. put d wn the freights en meat and the merchants were enabled to sell mea to all the neighbor ing towns, successfully competing with Richmond and other markets. He next showed the interest of the farmer who at last has to pay the freight. Assuming that the fre'ght en cotton would be lowered fifty cents on the bale, W. M. Edmundson, who usually makes 200 bales would save annually $100. What was true about cotton would apply 10 other commodit'es whether for shipment to market or for djmstic consumption. J, A. Davis was called for next. He was exceedingly practical. He wanted the road under control of the people who would be most interested and was willing to lake stock and if the road would le ex leuded wi Eagles' stere he would double up. Chairman Darlow offered tonne fig ures showing not inly a saviug but a di rect profit. Dr. J. H. Baker also spoke in tavor of the road, but there wan s much noise tbat he could not be heard distinctly. While nearly e ery one endorsed the project there weie not so many to come forward to take steck. At this writing about 350 shares have been taken, juai about a third of what is required. There is no sentiment about this pros pect. It is all business. The people can see for themselvis whether they can af ford to let it fail. t Monday is the last day in which t' e people will have their say, after tht tb proposition made by the V. & W. road to Mr. Hitch will be c nsidered.

The fast express from tbe West ha3 just rolled into the Grand Central depot. There is the usual hurry and bustle and the wild bhoutd of the cabmen. Ono of the pa-seners who alights, takes his val'se and umbrella inhisltand, and goes alonjr, in a business like way, is one of the wealthiest men in the world. It is John W. Mackay, tha famous bonanza, kintr. He has just returned from a trip across the continent and an insiection of Some of the mines he is interested in. He is a refreshing sight in these days, for he is a millionaire who shuns notoriety. His fellow passengers never dreamed who the quiet unassuming man w is who sat in a corner of the car with his head buried in a newspaper hour after hour. When he reached the depot he made no fuss, but quietly took up his baggage and hurried away to his hotel. Ho did not even take the precaution to telegraph in advance for an elaborate suite of rooms. He went to tbe hotel where he usually stops, was assigned to a $5 a day room on the Broadway side of the house, and in a few moments was in the large dining room enjoying a no mora expensive dinner than the average drummer. He is as shy as a school girl, makes no pretense of wealth, keeps his own coun sel, steers clear of reporters, and was never known to give an interview for publication. He never answers any of the thousand begging letters that come to him in the course of a month, pays no attention to what his neighbors are do ing, but rather minds his own business a unique proceeding in this day. How much money he' ia worth is still a topic of speculation. His fortune is placed anywhere from $80,000,000 to $200,000, 000. Perhaps the first sum is nearer the truth. But nobody will ever know until he dies. He has no confidants. He is really the laft of the Big Four w"ho ruled the mines of the West for so many years. . It may be just as well right here to say that there is one topic on which Mr. Mackay talks to his most intimate friends. That is his wife. He is as much in love with her to-day as ever. There is noth ing that delights him quite so much as to read of "her social success abroad. That she should have conquered even among queens in the Old World is no small feather in the cap of one who was once a washerwoman in a mining camp. Mr. Mackay is proud of her, but he laughs at the newspaper reports of the ridiculously large sums she i3 supposed to squander on her entertainments abroad. And well he may, for, while Mrs. Mackay enter tains lavishly, she is not extravagant. It is not unlikely that she may visit this country during the summer. Augusta Chronicle. Bismarck's Wife. Frau Dlsinarck is a famous housewife. Her dinners have always been the best, her home has always been a model of neatness and comfort, her children have been, most judiciously reared, and as a hostess there is none in all the empire that can be compared with her. Expert with the needle, famous as a cook, an angel in the nursery and at the fireside, skilled in all social graces and accom plishments, remarkable for her singular piety, and addicted to benevolent prac tices and charitable deeds, tlua lady is perhaps the most conspicuous example of womanly virtue that Germany affords. When Bismarck speaks of "woman's sphere" he has his wife's example in mind, and the sphere he refers to is as great and as noble as the example is illustrious and that wife lovable. Chi cago News. How Bullet Are Seen la Their Coarse. By saturating the bullets with vaseline they may be easily seen in their course from rifle to target. Their trajectory course is marked by a beautiful ring of smoke, caused by the vaseline ' being ig nited on leaving the muzzle of the gun, the smoke being suspended for some time in air if not too windy. Much better scores result wnen grease 01 some sona Tis used. Bullets are not so apt to split, the recoil is not so great, and it is be lieved the course of tbe missile is more true. Ohio State Journal. The X en tori ma Tablet. The Nestorian tablet, which was dis covered in Northwestern China in the year 1625, is to have a suitable shelter provided for it by the Chinese govern ment. It records the prestige of the Christian church in China in the eighth century, and the adherence of the tben reigning emperor to the new faith. That such a relic should not long since have been destroyed evinces a more tolerant spirit on the part of the Chinese than they have heretofore been credited with. Settling the BUI Made Difference.
